Kate Pinkerton - Trump claims voter fraud

Summary - President elect Donald Trump tweeted that there was voter fraud that occurred in Virginia, New Hampshire, and California. Election officials, both republicans and democrats, disagreed with Trump's allegations, saying that there was no voter fraud. The original allegation was that there were 3 million illegal votes total. While some people called for tighter enforcement of voter ID laws, others called for the restoration of the Voting Rights Acts.

Analysis - I think Donald Trump is not being mature and responsible as an adult and the president elect. His accusatory shenanigans may have been funny when he was running for office, but now its just concerning that this man will be our president. Its ironic that democrats are concerned voting fraud as well and wanted a recount, as well as republicans even though they won. The person who wrote this article was against Trumps accusations, based off of the way they quoted officials who disagreed and denounced Trumps tweet.
