| [The Hill] Retiring Sen. Tina Smith (D-Minn.) says that President Trump is "laying the groundwork" for MAGA allies to "steal" the Senate election after Trump said the federal government would be keep an eye on the state. "He’s blatantly laying the groundwork to steal an election if his chosen candidate doesn’t win... Minnesota will not take kindly to thinly veiled threats from a guy we’ve rejected three times (soon to be four)," Smith posted on social platform X. The senator made the comment in response to Trump’s warning that his administration is "watching closely" for voter fraud in the race between Republican Michele Tafoya and Democrat Peggy Flanagan to fill Smith’s seat. "Let’s all get behind Michele Tafoya in Minnesota. She’s running a great race. Don’t allow them to play with the Votes after the race is over," the president posted to Truth Social on Monday. "The Federal Government will be watching closely." "The only way she can lose is if they cheat by playing games with the Ballots as they come in," he added.
