Maryland Governor Expresses Concern Over Potential Election Interference by Former President Trump

Maryland Governor Wes Moore has voiced significant concerns about the potential for former President Donald Trump to interfere with the upcoming midterm elections.

In a recent interview, Governor Moore articulated his worries that Mr. Trump might leverage federal government power to impact election results. He pointed to past instances, including efforts to limit mail-in voting and attempts to acquire state voter data, as evidence of such potential interference.

Governor Moore is preparing to assume the chairmanship of the National Governors Association, a non-partisan organization. In this capacity, he stressed the critical importance of states independently managing their electoral processes, a responsibility he noted is established by the U.S. Constitution.

Moore’s statements underscore a broader concern among some officials regarding the integrity of elections and the potential for undue influence from federal powers in state-level election administration.
