DONALD TRUMP JR (HOST): What can your organization do — once you know, obviously, you're going full speed on this till November 5th, but on November 5th, can any of those people be pushed into sort of the election integrity side of things? Because I think that's something that people definitely worry about, especially in these places where it's closed. It feels like, you know, when it's close, we don't often get the break. The other side always seems to get the break. There's, you know, magically more people voting in counties than are registered to vote in those counties, and, apparently, that is the freest and fairest and most true form of election —electioneering possible. At least that's what we're told by the Democrats and the media. What do you see there on the integrity component of this?
SCOTT PRESLER (GUEST): Well, in terms of my staff, I mean, I want them out in the field with all due respect. I do encourage people to become an Election Day worker, not a poll watcher. Become an Election Day worker that you are paid by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and they cannot kick your behind out because that's what happened to us in 2020 in Philadelphia. We were poll watchers, not poll workers.
Now I will tell you, I've been contacting the Pennsylvania Department of State every day asking them, can you, with certainty, tell us that not a single illegal alien is registered to vote? They will not respond to me, so I have been visiting Bureau of Elections county by county, giving them an ultimatum within 7 business days. And I have heard from Pike and Wayne and Lackawanna, and I really need to hear from Lucerne because they're the one that ran out of paper ballots on Election Day in November of 2022. And so I encourage everybody watching, put your BOE, your Bureau of Elections on notice peacefully that you wanna make sure no illegal aliens are on the voter rolls. What is their plan to make sure that they don't run out of paper ballots on Election Day? What is their plan to make sure that if there's a power outage like we had after Milwaukee or like
TRUMP JR: A water break. A water main leak. Yeah.
PRESLER: Water main, like, you know, what whatever, that there is always a plan c, plan c — d. And then also to make sure that the machines are not connected to the Internet. This is something all of you can do, but this is a multi-pronged approach. We must do voter registration, we must have the mail on ballots, we must become election-day workers, we must put our BOEs peacefully on notice.
