The claim departs from the passage: the post says only "In July" and gives no year, so the added "July 2024" is not in the post.
What was said
… Now, as the, ah, reporter Brendan Hartnett notes, Scott Pressler has been one of the loudest voices elevating the claim that Democrats are illegally registering voters. In July, Pressler accused a Pennsylvania shelter for the homeless of allowing more than 500 people to use the address to vote, saying the shelter only holds a hundred beds. The Pennsylvania Department of State has a lot of explaining to do. We're finding this all over the state. Preserve your records. …
Philip Teresi · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. PennLive reports that Presler boasted in July of finding a Pennsylvania homeless shelter with 500 registered voters and only 100 beds.[1]
Supports. The Bulwark quotes Presler's attack on a Pennsylvania homeless shelter for allegedly having 500 people registered to vote there despite its 100-bed capacity.[2]
Context. Sources note that homeless people may lawfully use a shelter's address to register to vote, which undercuts the accusation's implication of wrongdoing.[1]
Context. No source in the set dates Presler's shelter accusation to July 2024; the sources published in October 2026 place it in the July before that reporting.[1][2][3]
