John,

Republicans have an election fraud problem. No matter how hard they look, they can’t seem to find any.

To say that voter fraud is vanishingly rare in this country is to overstate its frequency. For decades, the primary reason for spreading the myth of widespread voter fraud has been to justify the enactment of voter suppression laws, to make voting more difficult.

The 2020 election, however, created a new, pernicious use for the Republican voter fraud narrative. Having failed to win a majority of the vote, Republicans turned to fraud as the justification to argue to overturn the election.


In my latest piece, “Republicans Are Manufacturing Fake Fraud,” I explain how Republican legislatures in 2021 have enacted provisions that transform normal — even exemplary — behavior into voter fraud and how this will be used as the basis to overturn free and fair elections.

Let’s remain vigilant,

Marc
