Pennsylvania has a new Republican attorney general, sworn in on Tuesday, Jan. 21, and one of his first tasks is an investigation into voter registration fraud. The state’s new attorney general, Dave Sunday, has taken over an investigation that spans multiple counties.
In Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, officials have been reviewing hundreds of suspicious voter registration forms submitted in October 2024. The initial investigation has raised significant concerns.
Of the 1,203 applications reviewed by local detectives, 367 were verified, 383 were flagged for containing fraud and 453 were unverified and suspected to be fraudulent.

Among the red flags were false names, non-existent addresses, forged personal information and incorrect Social Security numbers.
Lancaster County District Attorney Heather Adams stated the issue spans several counties. She said that is why she handed over the case to the attorney general’s office.
Officials believe the fraudulent voter registration applications were part of an effort to disrupt the election process. They linked the fraud to a large-scale canvassing operation that began in June 2024.
Election offices received the registration forms in question in early October 2024. However, local officials immediately flagged the forms.
Adams emphasized the importance of the attorney general’s office taking over, citing their resources and experience in handling complex cases.
The district attorney’s office declined to release further details as the investigation continues.
