In a decisive move to fortify electoral reliability, Donald Trump has enacted a significant executive order aimed at improving election integrity in the United States. He claims that nations such as India, Brazil, Germany, Canada, Denmark, and Sweden are leading in secure voting practices, prompting his administration to implement similar measures.

Former President Trump pushes for enhanced voting security by signing an executive order, advocating for practices from other countries.
The new order mandates proof of citizenship for voters, with Trump citing the adoption of biometric voter ID systems in India and Brazil. Additionally, he pointed out that Germany and Canada rely on paper ballots counted in person, while Denmark and Sweden maintain strict regulations on mail-in voting, limited to those unable to vote in person on Election Day. "Free, fair, and honest elections unmarred by fraud, errors, or suspicion are fundamental to maintaining our constitutional Republic," the order asserts.
Trump has been vocal in his criticism of late-counted ballots, describing them as "absurd," and insists that all votes should be finalized by Election Day. This initiative is seen as part of his broader campaign strategy as he prepares for the 2024 elections, where he deployed numerous poll watchers and legal teams to ensure the integrity of the electoral process.
Despite anticipated legal challenges to the executive order, Trump remains resolute in his belief that American elections must stand as the most secure and transparent globally, pushing back against perceptions of vulnerability in the electoral system.
