What happened

President Donald Trump used a primetime address to release declassified election-related files and claim China illegally obtained data on 220 million U.S. voters, including names, addresses, phone numbers and party preferences. He said the documents showed voting-system vulnerabilities, fraud and foreign interference, ordered the Justice Department to pursue prosecutions, and urged Congress to pass the stalled SAVE America Act. Some released materials said U.S. election systems “would be difficult to manipulate” and that audits and paper trails would expose such efforts. China denied the allegations as fabricated.
