US officials said there has been no intelligence to suggest foreign countries are working to undermine postal voting and no signs of any coordinated effort to commit widespread fraud despite numerous claims made by Donald Trump.

The officials at multiple federal agencies stopped short of directly contradicting Mr Trump but their comments made it clear they had not seen evidence to support the president’s statements that voter fraud will be rampant in the upcoming election.
