What BBN said about it

1. 

   Gloria Vance · World News AnchorPresident Trump says voter fraud in the United States is rampant, eight days before the November third midterm elections, and BBC Verify has examined that claim.

2. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorAnd there's a prize! He posted on Truth Social offering one million dollars to anyone who reports fraud that leads to an arrest and conviction.

3. 

   Gloria Vance · World News AnchorHe did not say where the money comes from, and the White House has given no further details.

4. 

   Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe Justice Department says it defers to the White House.

5. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSo who pays the winner?

6. 

   Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThat is the question I asked at two this morning, and it still has no answer.

7. 

   Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe department's own program caps fraud tip rewards at thirty thousand dollars.

8. 

   Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThirty thousand is still a great weekend! But what does the BBC find on the fraud itself?

9.

10.

11. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThree hundred twenty-five in twenty years. That's a very small crowd for rampant.

12. 

    Gloria Vance · World News AnchorIn California, the administration first claimed one hundred ninety thousand illegal voters on the rolls. It has since revised that to around twenty thousand.

13. 

    Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThe number shrank by almost ninety percent and the prize stayed the same!

14.
