Overview

• Texas Secretary of State and Arizona officials debunk claims of widespread voter fraud amplified by Elon Musk, labeling the allegations as 'extremely false'.
• Musk's retweet of a post claiming skyrocketing voter registrations without photo ID in key swing states draws criticism and fact-checking from election officials.
• Texas reports a much smaller increase in voter registrations than claimed, with only 57,711 new voters since the beginning of 2024, contrary to the 1.2 million alleged.
• Arizona's total number of registered voters has actually declined, with fewer than 35,000 registrants lacking documented proof of citizenship.
• Officials and fact-checkers emphasize the robust verification processes in place for voter registration, countering misinformation about voter fraud.
