US President Donald Trump plans to deliver a prime-time speech on Thursday focused on election security, bringing renewed attention to his long-running complaints about voting systems and election administration as Republicans face challenging midterm elections in November.
The White House was deciding whether the president's remarks would include the disclosure of sensitive intelligence related to China's intention or ability to interfere in the 2020 US election, Reuters reported on Wednesday, citing four sources. Some Trump officials worried the information could be misleading, sources said.
Trump has spent years raising doubts about electoral outcomes, falsely asserting that his 2020 loss to Democrat Joe Biden was rigged.
He has also advanced other false claims, including that mail-in balloting is rife with fraud, voting machines are vulnerable and non-citizen voting is widespread.
Numerous courts and vote recounts found no evidence of large-scale fraud in the 2020 election.
