John,
The New York Times: “President Trump on Tuesday night fired his administration’s most senior cybersecurity official responsible for securing the presidential election, Christopher Krebs, who had systematically disputed Mr. Trump’s false declarations in recent days that the presidency was stolen from him through fraudulent ballots and software glitches that changed millions of votes.”
After winning the election, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are ready to lead the country come January 20 -- but Trump is now firing anyone who gets in the way of his baseless claims that Democrats ‘stole’ the election.
And Trump’s lies seem to be working. According to a Morning Consult poll, even with zero evidence to back their beliefs, 70% of Republicans think the election was “not free and fair.”
A research director at the Harvard Kennedy School says, “It’s too early to say which narratives will take hold.” But we know that the true cost of Trump’s misinformation will be in how Americans perceive the issue, which is why we need to know if you’re buying the story Trump is selling. Please, tell us now:
Do you believe Trump’s election fraud claims?
Thank you so much for taking our poll today.
