On December 2, 2025, US President Trump (Donald Trump) announced that Dallas County in Texas has fully switched to using watermarked paper ballots, with more areas following suit.
Trump posted on his social media platform “Truth Social,” saying, “Great news! Dallas County in Texas has just fully switched to ‘paper ballots.’ Many other areas are also following suit!”
The President then outlined the benefits of using watermarked paper ballots.
“Using watermarked paper ballots is more accurate, completely secure, faster, and costs only 9% (compared to using voting machines),” the President said. “All Republican governors should enforce this measure. It saves money and defends freedom.”
In recent years, Trump has been advocating for the comprehensive use of paper ballots in US elections. In August of this year, he stated on “Truth Social” that he would lead a movement to abolish mail-in ballots and highly “inaccurate,” very expensive, and controversial voting machines.
He explained that voting machines cost ten times more than the “accurate and advanced” watermarked paper ballots. Watermarked paper ballots are quicker, leave no doubts, and the election results can be known on the election night itself.
At that time, the President also stated that he would work tirelessly with the Republican Party to bring “honesty and integrity” back to US elections. He said that mail-in ballot fraud and the use of voting machines for voting are a “complete disaster” and must be terminated immediately! Remember, without fair and honest elections, without strong and powerful borders, you won’t even have a country.
