Trump and Scott in recent days have accused Democrats of trying to "steal" the election, pointing to what they have described as potential fraud committed by election officials in Broward County.

Schumer said Sunday on that there is no evidence of fraud in the election.

"When you vote by mail, it takes a while to count the ballots because some of the mail votes come in on Election Day. And that’s a process that should be transparent. There have been Republicans and Democrats in those election places and no one has alleged any fraud," Schumer said.
