Another elderly donor has come forward disputing a massive volume of ActBlue contributions made in her name, the latest in a long-running pattern of disputed high-volume donations.

What Congressional action has been taken regarding ActBlue's donation controls and verification practices?
House Administration, Judiciary, and Oversight committees have been examining ActBlue’s fraud controls and foreign-donation safeguards for years.

What patterns of disputed high-volume ActBlue donations have been documented among elderly Americans in other states?
Similar patterns of extraordinary donation volumes have been flagged in several states: in Maryland and elsewhere, O’Keefe Media Group reported on seniors whose names appeared on $170,000 to $230,000+ in donations they denied; in Arizona, one resident in her 80s was listed for over 18,000 contributions totaling over $170,000; in Connecticut, an 88-year-old retired Yale professor was listed for 7,539 donations totaling $213,163; and similar patterns have been flagged in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

How has ActBlue responded to allegations regarding the high volume of disputed donations in Elizabeth Waffle's name?
ActBlue stated they reviewed the relevant contribution data and that their customer service team had already reached out to the donor. They noted that it is standard operating procedure to take corrective action, such as blocking accounts and reporting potential fraud, when noncompliant donations are identified, and they pointed to a "tandem fundraising" feature that can turn a single form submission into multiple reported contributions.
