This is what we know about what's going on in the two Pennsylvania counties where thousands of forms are being reviewed over suspected irregularities.
What We Know
Last week, officials in Lancaster County announced that they were reviewing two batches of roughly 2,500 voter registration forms turned in before the registration deadline over signs of potential fraud. Not all forms showed signs of potential fraud, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported, but all were being reviewed by officials.
In their latest update on the investigation, the Lancaster County District Attorney's office said that county detectives working through the weekend to review the suspicious materials found hundreds more forms which could not be verified because the information provided in them couldn't be matched with any police record or public source database.
According to Lancaster County District Attorney Heather Adams, her team found that about 60 percent of the 2,500 forms were potentially illegitimate.
During the same week, officials reported that York County was also investigating potential application irregularities after receiving a large batch of thousands of election-related materials from a third party organization.
As Lancaster and York counties, Pennsylvania, review thousands of potentially fraudulent forms, Trump is already crying foul play in the battleground state.
