  • A video shared on Facebook purportedly shows police officers finding thousands of ballots cast for President Donald Trump dumped in a field. Verdict: False The video shows deputies recovering Amazon packages, not discarded ballots, according to the Boone County Sheriff’s Office. Fact Check: The video appears to have originated on TikTok, where the user @kuntefason posted it without a caption on Nov. 7. It appears to show law enforcement officers moving several bags on the side of the road in Hebron, Kentucky. The town’s Waffle House appears in the background of the video. #Breaking #BreakingNews Police find THOUSANDS of Ballots for #Trump thrown in a field, one Facebook user captioned the video. But the CRIMINAL #MainstreamMedia? They LIE through their FACES that there is no #VoterFraud at all anywhere after LYING& Calling races to discourage voters from voting trying to get them to go home. The Boone County Sheriff’s Office, which has jurisdiction over Hebron, called the claim that the video shows officers collecting discarded ballots false in a Nov. 9 statement .
