Thousands of voter registrations suspected of fraud have been found in the critical state of Pennsylvania.
The Lancaster County Board of Elections announced Friday that staff members identified approximately 2,500 allegedly fraudulent voter registration applications submitted to the elections office.
Pennsylvania and its 19 electoral college votes are essential for Donald Trump or Kamala Harris to obtain the 270 votes necessary to secure the White House.
The Keystone State was also one of the centers of unfounded allegations of voter fraud in 2020.
It took four days to finish counting the ballots to declare President Joe Biden the winner of the race.

In 2020, results here were not known until 11 a.m. local time on the Saturday after Election Day.
Pennsylvania will not begin counting absentee votes until Election Day itself, which could delay election results.
Polls in this crucial state will be open from 7 am to 8 pm local time.
And the state is considered a true head-to-head for both candidates. Presidential polling averages show Harris and Trump within one point of each other with no clear leader.
The allegations of voter fraud come as more than 30 million Americans have cast ballots nationwide, according to the University of Florida Election Laboratory.
About 17 million votes were cast by mail, while 15 million voted in person.
So far, 64 million mail-in votes have been requested nationwide.

The allegations of voter fraud come as more than 30 million Americans have cast ballots across the country.
The battleground states have witnessed some of the most intense voting.
Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia and Arizona have some of the highest early voting rates, which makes sense given the resources both presidential campaigns are investing in those areas.
More Democrats voted early than Republicans, 41% to 36%. And more women than men, 54% to 44%.
