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?

    About the only voter fraud that’s been found has been Republicans voting multiple times. And even that wasn’t at levels high enough to influence the results of the elections.

    And definitely no evidence of election fraud. Stuff like their claims that companies that make voting machines remotely flipped votes to Biden. There’s zero evidence for this and lots of evidence against it, but they still repeat these claims because they don’t like the alternative: they lost the election.

      They haven’t legitimately won an election in decades. Every single candidate they ran for President lost the popular vote, and the ones that gained office anyway did so because they’re gaming the system. They refuse to change their policies to gain votes fairly; they’d rather impose their policies regardless of the will of voters.

      Democracy hasn’t failed. They’ve simply abandoned democracy, and they’re no longer trying to hide it.
