Lara Trump has issued a warning to voters to “protect the vote” ahead of the US Presidential election.
Sharing a link to voter fraud, the daughter-in-law of Donald Trump told her 1.8million followers to follow the link if they see anything deceitful.
With voting now underway, both Trump and Kamala Harris are tied neck and neck in seven key states in one of the tightest elections ever.
National polling is also tying the White House hopefuls, who need at least 270 electoral votes to win.

In Dixville Notch, New Hampshire, six registered voters cast their ballots - with three going for Trump and three from Harris.
The tiny New Hampshire town is one of the first places in the country to report its presidential preference, after it closed its polls just after midnight ET in a tradition that goes back to 1960.
The Republican National Committee, of which Lara is a co-Chair, earlier said that GOP poll watchers were being turned away from stations in Pennsylvania.
RNC Chairman Michael Whatley wrote on social media that “early this morning we learned that Republican poll watchers in Philadelphia, York, Westmoreland, Allegheny, Lehigh, Cambria, Wyoming and Lackawanna counties were being turned away”.

Lara later confirmed to Fox News that they were now being allowed in.
“We already this morning from the RNC had to do a little work with our attorneys because our poll watchers – if you can believe this, and I’m sure people can – were being prevented from entering in the buildings in eight different counties, some of them around Philadelphia, some of them outside of Pittsburgh, where they prevented our poll watchers, our Republican poll watchers from going in.”
Trump later said "all of our poll watchers I’m happy to report are in."
Yesterday, Lara spoke at the Women for Trump campaign event in Pennsylvania in an attempt to appeal to female voters - pollsters have suggested a massive gender gap, with female support driving Harris to victory.

She opened the rally alongside a group of women who said to the crowd that Trump is leading “the best comeback of all time,” according to Fox 56.
“Tomorrow is not the end”, Lara said during the rally, the outlet reported.
“Tomorrow is just the beginning. It will be Donald J. Trump who restores the American dream for the United States of America.”
Notably absent from the event was Trump’s wife Melania and daughter Ivanka.
