The share of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents who believe that President Joe Biden’s 2020 election win was not legitimate has ticked back up, according to a new CNN poll fielded throughout July. All told, 69% of Republicans and Republican-leaners say Biden’s win was not legitimate, up from 63% earlier this year and through last fall, even as there is no evidence of election fraud that would have altered the outcome of the contest.

    That’s about 70 million Americans who think Biden’s victory was illegitimate.

    That is a terrifyingly large percent of people.

        I can’t figure out a way that it could be 70 million. Only about 150 million people voted in 2020. 39% of voters identify as or lean Republican .

            Even assuming the numbers given above are accurate some quick napkin math suggests that’s about 41 million people (70% of 39% of 150 million).
