President Donald Trump endorsed Michele Tafoya in Minnesota and wrote that “The Federal Government will be watching closely.” In an October 26 Truth Social statement, he also wrote that “the only way she can lose is if they cheat by playing games with the Ballots as they come in.”
What did Trump say about Michele Tafoya?
Trump opened the Truth Social post with: “Let’s all get behind Michele Tafoya in Minnesota.” He said she was running “a great race” and gave her his “Complete and Total Endorsement” to be Minnesota’s next senator.
The President framed the race as one in which ballot counting deserved close attention. He wrote that Americans should not allow anyone “to play with the Votes after the race is over.”
What did he say the federal government would do?
Trump wrote, “The Federal Government will be watching closely.” The statement does not announce a new federal election program, an executive order, a change in Minnesota election law, or a specific agency action.

What are Trump’s Minnesota election claims?
Trump said Tafoya could lose only through cheating involving incoming ballots. He also claimed that he won Minnesota three times but was not given those victories, and wrote that Minnesota has not been “won” since Richard Nixon in 1972.
Those are the President’s claims in his post. The statement itself offers no vote totals, court ruling, federal finding, or election-administration record to accompany them.
What happens next?
Trump’s endorsement is a political statement of support for Tafoya. The post does not describe a specific federal election-related action.
Readers can also compare the format of this statement with Trump’s Roy Cooper prison-release claims, another report separating a Truth Social post from government action.
