Here's where the 2024 presidential candidates stand on elections, voting

Voting, elections and election security have all been a frequent topic up on the 2024 campaign trail.

Former President Donald Trump has continued to make false claims about the 2020 election as he seeks another term in the White House, and has begun to cast doubt on voting methods like mail-in voting ahead of the November contest.

President Joe Biden had centered his campaign on criticizing Trump as a threat to democracy. Vice President Kamala Harris has not made it as big a focal point, but has said Trump should not be in power again after trying to "throw away" votes.

Here's a brief look at where the major candidates stand on the issue.

Kamala Harris

Harris has been critical of efforts to overturn the 2020 election and the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

She's said if she's elected, she'd continue to advocate for the John Lewis Voting Rights Act and the Freedom to Vote Act -- both of which have failed to clear the 60-vote threshold in the U.S. Senate. The bills would strengthen a key component of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, end partisan gerrymandering, implement electoral safeguards and more.

Earlier this year, she spearheaded new steps federal agencies would take to boost voter participation, including to increase visibility of Vote.gov and making voter registration information more easily available.

In her nomination acceptance speech, Harris pledged Americans can trust her to "hold sacred America's fundamental principles, from the rule of law, to free and fair elections, to the peaceful transfer of power."

Donald Trump

During his 2024 campaign, Trump has continued to repeat baseless claims that fraud robbed him of electoral victory in 2020 and has deployed mixed messaging on how voters should cast ballots this year.

At times, he's doubled down on his calls for Election Day voting only and made groundless accusations that mail-in voting is ripe for abuse. However, he has also endorsed the Republican National Committee's early voting initiative, arguing Republicans need to "beat the Democrats at their own game."

Trump is now facing charges in federal court and a state court in Georgia over efforts to reverse his 2020 loss. He has pleaded not guilty and denies all wrongdoing.

Ahead of November, he's repeatedly pushed false claims that Democrats only win elections because they "cheat."

In a major escalation of that rhetoric, Trump said that if he wins this race, those who "cheated" would "be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences." He suggested his apparent threat of "legal exposure" applies to "Lawyers, Political Operatives, Donors, Illegal Voters, & Corrupt Election Officials."
