Trump Tells Supporters ‘Don’t Worry About Voting’ On Election Night
Former President Donald Trump spoke at a campaign rally in Derry, New Hampshire on Monday and at one point told his supporters they didn’t need to go vote.
Trump has long pushed roundly debunked claims that he did not in fact lose the 2020 presidential election to Joe Biden, but that it was stolen from him. Despite dozens of court cases and multiple GOP-backed audits in states like Georgia and Arizona, Trump continues to obsess over the claim as he is unwilling to admit he lost to Biden.
During the rally on Monday, Trump took that sentiment so far that he claimed to have “plenty of votes” and that his supporters are better off focusing on watching the voters as opposed to actually voting themselves.
“So, we have to be careful. You got to get out there and watch those voters,” Trump said, adding, “You don’t have to vote, don’t worry about voting. The voting, we got plenty of votes.”

The odd comment was quickly picked up by the Never Back Down PAC which supports Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R) 2024 presidential bid. “Trump tells Republicans to focus on watching votes being counted on election night instead of getting out to vote,” wrote the PAC on Twitter while sharing the clip.
Other clips from the rally went viral as well, including Trump saying, “I’m for us. You know how you spell us, right? U.S. I just picked that up. Has anyone ever thought of that before?”
