Trump Plans to Challenge the 2022 Elections — Starting in Philly
The former president is fixated on challenging the results of Pennsylvania’s Senate race, which he views — as one source puts it — as a “dress rehearsal for Trump 2024”

IN EARLY SEPTEMBER, Donald Trump welcomed a handful of Republican allies to Manhattan’s Trump Tower with an urgent message: He saw a “scam” happening with midterm election voting in Philadelphia and elsewhere in Pennsylvania, and he wanted conservatives to do something about it.

“During our briefing, he was concerned that 2020 is going to happen again in 2022,” says former senior Trump administration official Michael Caputo, referencing Trump’s debunked assertion that voter fraud in Philadelphia helped win Pennsylvania for Joe Biden. Caputo — who attended the meeting alongside Bradford County Commissioner Doug McLinko and retired CIA officer Sam Faddis — says they had a message back to the former president: “Our team encouraged him to be concerned … [Furthermore], I’m advising Republicans to recruit and train election observers and a team of attorneys to oversee historically problematic precincts.”

But it’s not just one meeting, and it’s not just Philly.

In recent months, Trump has convened a series of in-person meetings and conference calls to discuss laying the groundwork to challenge the 2022 midterm election results, four people familiar with the conversations tell Rolling Stone. In these conversations, pro-Trump groups, attorneys, Republican Party activists, and MAGA diehards often discuss the type of scorched-earth legal tactics they could deploy.

Brooklyn Turns out Largest Number of Voters in the State of New York​

Brooklyn, NY-- Brooklyn Democratic Party Chair Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn issued the following statement on Nov. 8th's General Election results and projections as votes are still being counted in key races:

“The Brooklyn Democratic Party and I congratulate the apparent winners across Brooklyn and Statewide including the First female Elected NY Governor Kathy Hochul and Brooklyn’s own First Female Attorney General Tish James and Senator Chuck Schumer.

The Party galvanized strong voter turnout, as evidenced with Brooklyn leading the five boroughs in votes cast. We thank our volunteers and staff for engaging Dems across the borough through phone banking, canvassing, rallies, community events, and going door-to-door to every corner of Brooklyn reaching over 1.1 million voters.

As the largest and fastest growing borough, Brooklyn is not just culturally diverse, but politically diverse across the Democratic spectrum with many shades of Blue. This serves as a pertinent reminder that we need to continue to unify as Democrats, regardless of our differing views, in preparation for the GOP challenges ahead.”

Party Congratulates NYS Democrats' Historic Election Victories

“We congratulate U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer on his re-election for a historic fifth term. Sen. Schumer, a native Brooklynite, has devoted his career to bettering the lives of New Yorkers, and Schumer will keep bringing bold transformative change to move our country and democracy forward through his proven, progressive leadership.​

The Brooklyn Democratic Party also congratulates victor Lt. Gov. Delgado, and applauds Gov. Kathy Hochul on making well-deserved history as the first elected woman Governor in New York. Our Governor will keep breaking barriers and glass ceilings as she fights for women's rights, economic equality and prosperity, combats crime and relentlessly works to improve the lives of all New Yorkers alongside a capable Lt. Governor.​

We congratulate Attorney General Letitia James for winning re-election as the “people’s lawyer.” As a lifelong public servant and first woman to be elected Attorney General, AG James will continue to fight and deliver for all the people of New York.​

We also laud Tom DiNapoli for winning reelection for a forth term as NYS Comptroller. DiNapoli has steadfastly served as the state’s financial watchdog while the State’s Pension Fund has grown under his leadership, and we are confident he will improve our Government functionality with integrity.

While there is a Blue Wave in the state of New York, Democratic nominees all over the City and State, including Parts of South Brooklyn faced unprecedented GOP challengers and we express respect for these nominees who fought hard but may have fell short. We used to be considered an “outer borough” but are now the target of stronger GOP attacks as a center of the political universe.

The process of democracy still involves voters who decide on who they want to represent them. Our nation is undergoing an upheaval with the Democratic control of the House and U.S. Senate hanging in balance as we await the results of key races that are still too unknown to call.

As a strong diverse county which includes rich culture, we must continue to build as a party in preparation for the future. We are fighters for the people and will continue to serve as advocates that will strengthen the voice of the vulnerable. We congratulate all of the Democratic victors in Brooklyn, New York City, New York State, and across the nation as we await the final results and remain resilient.”
