In poll after poll, about 70% of Republicans say they don’t think Joe Biden is the legitimate winner of the 2020 election. Multiple recounts and election audits have confirmed the accuracy of the election results.
Thousands of protesters during a "Stop The Steal" rally in support of President Donald Trump attacked the U.S. Capitol. In poll after poll, about 70% of Republicans say they don’t think Joe Biden is the legitimate winner of the 2020 election.Some Trump backers have told researchers that the more they hear reports that the election was fair, the more they believe that it wasn’t.
The multiple recounts and audits that confirmed Joe Biden’s win have changed little. With remarkable consistency, a scant one-quarter of Republican voters tell pollsters that Biden won legitimately. That was the view they shared in the spring of 2021, and the fraction remains about the same today. "We told him, the group that went over there, outlined my belief on the chances for success at this point, and we pegged it at 5%, maybe 10%," Stepien said.Acting Deputy Attorney General Richard Donoghue was one of many officials who tried to counter Trump’s claims of fraud.
Sarah Longwell, executive director of Republicans for the Rule of Law, has conducted regular focus groups with fans of Trump. "A woman from Georgia told me, ‘When I went to bed, Trump was so in the lead and then up and he’s not in the lead. I mean, that’s crazy,’" Longwell said. "It is one thing to dismiss one misleading claim, but countering many different claims across many different people is much more challenging," Stroud said. "If I have five reasons that the election could have been fraudulent, and you dismiss one of them, there are four others waiting in the wings."
