Puerto Rico Voting Machines Seizure Raises Election Conspiracy Concerns
A top US intelligence official's testimony about seized voting machines in Puerto Rico has reignited questions about a debunked 2020 election conspiracy theory linking Venezuela to Trump's defeat.
Puerto Rico Voting Machines Seizure Raises Election Conspiracy Concerns
In a recent congressional testimony, the US Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, revealed that her office had seized voting machines from Puerto Rico at the request of the US Attorney's Office there. However, this development has raised questions about the potential revival of a discredited conspiracy theory that claims Venezuela was behind Donald Trump's 2020 electoral defeat.
The prosecutor in Puerto Rico, who made the request for the machine seizure, has been at the center of efforts by Trump supporters to revive the theory that the Venezuelan government, under President Nicolás Maduro, remotely manipulated electronic voting machines worldwide to deprive Trump of a presidential victory.
