Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares is among several Republican AGs pledging to investigate possible fraudulent donations to Democratic Party candidates through the platform ActBlue.
Miyares has issued a letter to the platform this week demanding answers about election integrity. He said it is part of his broader investigation into the Democratic donation platform, which has reported thousands of donations under names and identities that he suspects could be fraudulent.
“My office has become aware of multiple serious allegations that ActBlue, ActBlue Civics, Inc., and ActBlue Charities, Inc. have engaged in fraudulent, deceptive, and/or otherwise illegal activities in the Commonwealth of Virginia and/or have aided and abetted others in doing so,” the AG’s letter begins.
“This includes hundreds of thousands of dollars of contributions through individual donors in the Commonwealth in volumes that are facially implausible and appear suspicious. Some of these Virginia donors are reported as making multiple daily contributions over the course of multiple years, amounting to tens of thousands of dollars in aggregate,” the letter continued.

Miyares has found that many individuals listed as making substantial donations are senior citizens who list their occupation as “not employed” or “retired” and provide addresses that appear questionable. The attorney general posits that this pattern suggests some contributions to ActBlue may have come from “fictional” donors or dummy accounts.
“AG Jason Miyares posted in response to Charlie Kirk flagging a donation anomaly in Virginia where a 79-year-old resident living in an apartment at $2,000 per month made 22,619 separate donations since 2019, totaling more than $800,000,” The Post Millennial reported.
“My office is aware of these allegations and rest assured, we are looking into it,” the AG went on to say in a post on X. Kirk said in his original comment, “It’s trivially easy to find massive, repeated donations to ActBlue that use stolen identities and, quite possibly, stolen credit cards.” He then added, “For example, one person in Virginia has been named in 22,619 separate donations since 2019, totaling more than $800,000. Obviously, she’s being exploited for some kind of money-laundering operation. ActBlue raises from all fifty states. We have fifty state AGs. When will one of them take action?”

In response to the flood of allegations, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey also vowed to investigate. “My team is looking into the disturbing allegations surrounding ActBlue,” Bailey wrote in an X post on Wednesday. “More to come.”
In Wyoming, Secretary of State Chuck Gray announced that his office will also be opening an investigation.
