PHILADELPHIA — As President Donald Trump attempts to reverse the general election's outcome, he's once again taking aim at Philadelphia. Trump Wednesday said Philadelphia City Commissioner Al Schmidt is refusing to look at "corruption and dishonesty" surrounding the city's vote count. Schmidt, a Republican, recently told "60 Minutes" the elections office received veiled death threats. Trump called Schmidt a RINO, an acronym for "Republican in name only," in his Wednesday tweet. Twitter, however, flagged Trump's tweet with a notification that the claim of election fraud is disputed. A guy named Al Schmidt, a Philadelphia Commissioner and so-called Republican (RINO), is being used big time by the Fake News Media to explain how honest things were with respect to the Election in Philadelphia. He refuses to look at a mountain of corruption & dishonesty. We win!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 11, 2020 City commissioners Wednesday addressed allegations of deceased Philadelphians voting, saying none of the allegations are true. Two deceased people alleged to have voted were boxing legend Joe Frazier, who died in 2011, and Will Smith's father, who died in 2016.
