President Donald Trump blasted New York City for its mail-in ballot mishap involving mismarked ballots.
The president took to Twitter on Wednesday calling the situation a “total MESS.”
He accused New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and Gov. Andrew Cuomo of having “no idea what to do.”
On Tuesday, the New York City Board of Elections said 99,477 voters residing in Brooklyn received ballots with someone else’s name and address on the return envelope, while some voters in Brooklyn and Queens received ballots incorrectly marked as military ballots.
Trump called the mess up “unfixable!” He urged people to “go out and VOTE, just like in past decades, when there were no problems!”
He alleged the mail-in ballots were a “Big Fraud.”
Trump has repeatedly claimed that mail-in ballots will result in a fraudulent election. Many states are expanding mail-in voting amid the coronavirus pandemic.
