  • According to Trump, voting machines were used to change thousands of votes from Trump to Biden “with the turn of a dial or the change of a chip.”

The chart below shows 46 claims from Donald Trump about voting machine fraud or “glitches” in the presidential election from election day on November 3, 2020, through January 6, 2021, when the electoral college votes were certified.

We found 31 claims from Trump that mentioned Dominion Voting Systems by name; we have not found quotes from Trump that mention any other voting machine companies by name as of the date of this document. In the 2020 election, Dominion Voting Systems products were used in an estimated 24 states.[1]Verified Voting, “The Verifier — Search — November 2020,” verifiedvoting.org (accessed May 26, 2021)

Following the election, some conservative media and Trump allies claimed that voting machine companies changed votes or tried to rig the 2020 presidential election in favor of Joe Biden. A former Dominion employee sued the Trump campaign for defamation, but no voting machine-related lawsuits appear to have named Trump himself as a defendant. To date, no third party has judged these claims of fraud to be true in any way that could have impacted the election outcome.[2]PBS NewsHour, “Exhaustive Fact Check Finds Little Evidence of Voter Fraud, But 2020’s ‘Big Lie’ Lives On,” pbs.org, December 21, 2021

Many of Trump’s claims about voting machine fraud were originally posted on Twitter. When Twitter suspended Donald Trump’s account on January 8, 2021, the company deleted all of his tweets from its platform. The website thetrumparchive.com has a record of all of Trump’s tweets, which we have used to verify the text of the claims that Trump originally posted on Twitter. Any typos, irregular capitalizations, or other errors are preserved from the original tweets.

“You have Dominion [voting machines], which is very, very suspect to start off with. Nobody knows the ownership. People say the votes are counted in foreign countries. No, no, they—and much worse than that, by the way, with Dominion.[3]Dominion was founded in Canada in 2003, and in 2009 was incorporated in the United States (based in Colorado). Staple Street Capital in New York City became majority owner in 2018. Dominion is a … Continue reading

So, you know, Dominion is also partially based in Canada, but it’s based in other countries too. And nobody knows where the votes—but you know, Canada refuses to use Dominion. Canada uses paper ballots.

So think of it: They’re based in Canada, and Canada refuses to use them. They’re smart. They use paper ballots, because paper ballots are the only thing—frankly, the only thing that really you’re going to get an accurate tab on, because those machines are fixed. They’re rigged. You can press ‘Trump,’ and the vote goes to Biden. All you have to do is play with a chip, and it’s down—it’s shown all the time. All you have to do is play with a chip. And they played with a chip, especially in Wayne County, in Detroit. You take a look.”


-Donald Trump, “Remarks During a Video Teleconference With United States Servicemembers and Exchange With Reporters,” presidency.ucsb.edu, November 26, 2020
Dominion voting machines have unknown ownership, may count votes in foreign countries, and are rigged to change Trump votes to Biden

[Reporter: “Mr. President, if the electoral college votes for Joe Biden on December 14, will you concede the election?”]

“I—it’s going to be a very hard thing to concede, because we know there was massive fraud… This was a massive fraud. This should never take place in this country. We’re like a third-world country. We have [voting] machines that nobody knows what the hell they’re looking at. I mean, you take a look at all the mistakes they made.”

-Donald Trump, “Remarks During a Video Teleconference With United States Servicemembers and Exchange With Reporters,” presidency.ucsb.edu, November 26, 2020
Voting machines made mistakes
1811/26/2020

“Massive fraud has been found. We’re like a third-world country. We’re using computer equipment that can be hacked. They talk about glitches: How many glitches did they find? So a glitch—‘Oh, gee. We had a glitch: 5,000 votes.’

In all cases—right? In all cases, the votes went from Trump to Biden. They didn’t go from Biden—the glitches were never from Biden to Trump.

So they had many glitches. And they said, “Oh, we had a glitch.’ That—a glitch is like: ‘The equipment is a little broken. We’ll fix it up.’ No. A glitch is, in this case, we caught them cheating. We caught them stealing. We caught a fraudulent effort to get votes. And they said, ‘Oh, yes, it’s true. It—there was, but’—and there were many of them.

But here’s the problem: There were probably 10, 20, 30 times that didn’t get caught. We just got lucky and caught numerous of them. But what that is, is very simple. If you look at the glitch, the glitch means—right? It means: ‘Oh, we got caught. We got caught with the votes, and now let’s just call it a glitch.’

It wasn’t the [voting] machinery. And by the way, the machinery, if you look—just take a look anywhere on the internet; you will see many, many people where they’re experimenting with this stupid machinery—where, if you set it a certain way, the votes go from Trump to Biden.”

“They are tremendous people. Kelly Loeffler, David Perdue are tremendous people. They should be in the United States Senate. They’re desperately needed.

But I told them today, I said: ‘Listen, you have a fraudulent system [in Georgia]. You have a system where the flick of a switch or the putting in of a new chip [in the voting machine] can change the course of history, and you have to be very careful.’”

2111/29/2020

“You start with these [voting] machines that have been suspect, not allowed to be used in Texas, the Dominion machines, where tremendous reports have been put out. We have affidavits on — from many people talking about what went on with machines. They had glitches. You know what a glitch is. That’s — a glitch is supposed to be when a machine breaks down. Well, no, we had glitches where they moved thousands of votes from my account to Biden’s account. And these are glitches.

So, they’re not glitches. They’re theft. They’re fraud, absolute fraud. And there were many of them, but, obviously, most of them tremendous amounts, got by without us catching. We got lucky to catch them. I think we caught four or five glitches of about 5,000 votes each, and different states. And, again, they’re not glitches. That was fraud. And they got caught. But, for the most part, they got away with it.”

In one Michigan County, as an example, that used Dominion Systems [voting machines], they found that nearly 6,000 votes had been wrongly switched from Trump to Biden, and this is just the tip of the iceberg.

No satisfactory explanation has been offered for why Dominion Systems are able to switch votes with a mere push of a button, In Arizona, the State Senate has recently issued a subpoena for a forensic audit of the voting machines. And similar investigations must be conducted in every state using Dominion Systems immediately.

In Texas, they don’t allow Dominion Systems to be used.”

“Then the other thing they said is in Fulton County [Georgia] and other areas, and this may or may not be true. This just came up this morning that they are burning their ballots, that they are shredding, shredding ballots and removing equipment. They’re changing the equipment on the, on the Dominion machines. And, you know, that’s not legal. And they supposedly shred. And I think they said 300 pounds of— 3,000 pounds of ballots…

Now, do you think it’s possible that they shredded ballots in Fulton County? Because that’s what the rumor is. And also that Dominion took out machines. That Dominion is really moving fast to get rid of their, uh, machinery… It doesn’t pass the smell test, because we hear they’re shredding thousands and thousands of ballots, and now what they’re saying, ‘Oh, we’re just cleaning up the office.’ Yeah.”

“First, the Dominion voting machines employed in Fulton County — that’s the home of Stacey [Abrams] — had an astounding 93.67 error rate. ‘Ninety-three point six seven error rate in the scanning of ballots requiring a review panel to adjudicate or determine the voter’s intent.’ So they’re going to a voter intent, ‘What did the voter mean by this vote?’ Somebody votes for Trump, ‘Ah, you know, I think that voter meant something other. He doesn’t want Trump, let’s just switch it around.’ Think of that, they’re trying to determine the voter’s intent in over 106,000 ballots out of a total of 113,000 ballots…

‘[T]here is clear evidence that tens of thousands of votes were switched from President Trump to Former Vice President Biden in several counties throughout Georgia. For example, in Bibb County’ — anybody live in Bibb County? Bibb? Bibb? Bibb? B-I-B-B? ‘President Trump was reported to have 29,391 at 9:11 PM, while simultaneously, Former Vice President Joe Biden was reported to have 17,218. Minutes later, at the next update, these vote numbers switched, with President Trump now having 17,000 and Biden now having 29,391.’ That was a switch of over 12,000 votes! It was like a miracle!”

“The crime that was committed in this state [Georgia] is immeasurable.

“’In addition, there is the highly troubling matter of Dominion Voting Systems. In one Michigan county alone, 6,000 votes were switched from Trump to Biden and the same systems are used in the majority of states in our country.’

Senator William Ligon, a great gentleman, chairman of Georgia’s senate judiciary subcommittee. Senator Ligon, highly respected, on elections has written a letter describing his concerns with Dominion in Georgia.

He wrote, and I quote, ‘The Dominion Voting Machines employed in Fulton County had an astronomical and astounding 93.67% error rate. It’s only wrong 93% of the time in the scanning of ballots requiring a review panel to adjudicate or determine the voter’s interest in over 106,000 ballots out of a total of 113,000.’”

4 Trump has said that 6,000 votes in Michigan were changed from Trump to Biden, a claim also spread by others such as RNC chair Ronna McDaniel.
