Widespread election fraud claims by Republicans don't match the evidence | Brookings

Americans still believe voter fraud is rampant despite evidence running contrary.

We are less than one year away from Election Day and although there has been no new evidence or litigation regarding election fraud in the 2020 election, many people continue to believe that the 2020 election was flawed. In the summer, a poll by the Associated Press showed that 22% of Republicans and 71% of Democrats have high confidence in votes being counted accurately in 2024. A more recent Washington Post poll found that among New Hampshire Republicans, over 50% believe Biden’s win was fraudulent, including 85% of Trump supporters.

Chief among those who continue to believe that the 2020 election was fraudulent is the former president, Donald Trump, who can’t seem to stop talking about it. In one post, he goes after the Republican Party for not doing enough — “… the RNC, and Ronna McDaniel, must spend their time working on this, instead of meaningless Debates where I am up by more than 50 points.”

So, where’s the fraud?

    The fraud is in the intense voter suppression and gerrymandering the GOP has been doing or attempting for years.

    Again, every accusation seems to be a confession with these rich assholes.

    Can we just say “Republican election fraud claims are baseless bullshit” - bring it down to their simple sam level

    It’s not because Trump claims to believe that the election was fraudulent, that he actually believes it was fraudulent. He’s a serial lier and grifter, he does not actually believe all the lies and false accusations that he spouts.

    Man… It’s almost like every word uttered by a conservative is a lie. Weird.

    And one of those are third in line for the presidency. Please vote in all elections to keep the trumpy grumpies out at all levels of government. We did pretty well in the last local election keep it up.
