Does a video prove that a November 2026 investigation uncovered a massive voter registration fraud scheme in Pennsylvania? No, that’s not true: The video showed a 2024 press conference. It concerned a case that ended more than six months before the 2026 midterms.
The claim appeared in a post (archived here and here) on X by the @TrumpWorld_QQ account on Nov. 5, 2026. The caption read:
BREAKING: Lancaster, Pennsylvania officials have BUSTED a large-scale fraudulent voter registration scheme that includes thousands of applications with the same handwriting, fake signatures, false addresses, etc They discovered the same scheme in other Pennsylvania counties. District Attorney Heather Adams revealed that the applications came from canvassers who were paid to obtain voter registrations, adding that ‘The majority of the applications were from residents in the city of Lancaster… The canvases themselves took place at various shopping centers, parking lots of grocery stores and businesses, sidewalks and parks.’ ‘We are aware of at least two other counties that receive similar applications that are currently being investigated.’ If you listen closely, the DA said the Clerk received the applications at or near the deadline to register to vote. That means the bad actors waited till the last minute so no one would notice. They would’ve used the fraudulent applications to commit mail-in ballot fraud without getting caught. We better check the entire state of Pennsylvania, and we better see arrests NOW.
This is what a screenshot of the video in the post looked like at the time of writing:
Good morning, everyone. District Attorney Heather Adams. On Tuesday afternoon, I was contacted by Krista Miller, who is our chief clerk of elections, regarding potentially fraudulent voter registration applications that had recently been received by her office. At that time, she informed me that the elections office received approximately 2,500 applications at or near the deadline for registering to vote.
While preparing to process these applications, staff noticed that numerous applications appeared to have the same handwriting, were filled out on the same day with unknown signatures, and some were previously registered voters — excuse me — and the signatures on file did not match the signatures on the application. So before I begin to summarize our preliminary findings, I must remind everyone that this is an ongoing investigation, and for that reason, I will be limited in the details that I can provide…
