Officials swiftly rejected his claims.  Seth Bluestein, Philadelphia’s city commissioner, called Trump's claims "unfounded" and reaffirming that the city’s elections are being conducted fairly.

Earlier too Trump has cast doubt on the electoral process. Following his loss to Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election, Trump refused to concede, leading to the violent January 6 attack on the US Capitol by his supporters. Trump’s also filed multiple lawsuits in several states, including Pennsylvania, alleging election fraud.
