fake ballots
Counterfeit voting documents
Fake ballots are counterfeit or fraudulent voting documents—either ballots that were never legitimately cast or ballots altered after submission.
The term appears most often in allegations of election fraud: They claimed thousands of fake ballots were trucked in overnight.
Whether describing actual forgeries or unfounded conspiracy theories, the phrase carries heavy political charge.
