As Americans head to the polls to vote in Tuesday's midterm elections, U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other Democrats warned that, as they tried to do in 2020, Republican candidates may attempt to prematurely declare victory or even claim fraud in contests in which they're initially ahead but they ultimately lose once all outstanding ballots are counted.
Noting that it can take a day or more to count all ballots including those submitted by mail, Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., tweeted Tuesday that "this is normal, but some GOP are laying ground to claim any race not called tonight is suspicious. Don't fall for it."
