Donald Trump to claim electronic voting vulnerabilities in July 2026 speech

Former U.S. President Donald J. Trump is scheduled to deliver a televised address on July 16, 2026, asserting that electronic voting machines are vulnerable to cyber‑attacks and that the 2020 election was compromised. He will repeat the claim that his loss to President Joe Biden resulted from widespread fraud, despite multiple courts, audits and the U.S. Department of Justice finding no evidence of such wrongdoing.

Election officials and cybersecurity experts say the voting equipment is secure and that no foreign intrusion has altered past results. The speech comes after a wave of post‑2020 election lawsuits, most of which were dismissed; only one case produced any credible evidence. The remarks are expected to influence public opinion ahead of the 2026 legislative elections.
