His comment, in an interview with Fox News, echoed repeated assertions by President Donald Trump warning US states, without evidence of wrongdoing, against using mail-in ballots in the November elections. At a time of "intense division in the country," Barr said on Fox, elections permit a peaceful transfer of power. But he said mail-in ballots "open the floodgates of potential fraud" and undermine public confidence in an election's outcome. (Photo by SAUL LOEB / AFP)

Washington. El secretario de Justicia de Estados Unidos, William Barr, criticó el domingo el uso de papeletas de votación enviadas por correo en las elecciones presidenciales, alegando que podrían “abrir las puertas a posibles fraudes”.

El comentario de Barr, durante una entrevista con Fox News, repite el discurso de Donald Trump, quien en reiteradas ocasiones advirtió a los estadounidenses sobre el riesgo del uso de boletas electorales enviadas por correo, sin tener evidencia de irregularidades en el sistema.
