That is not at all what the article you linked states. Not only does the article confirm that some of the X's in the picture were not in Congress but it provides a specific list that shows that, for those who were, the claim is accurate.
- beerandt 7y agoHow is that at all considered to be true? The original claim was those specific people were voted out of Congress. Not that it's representative of the general quantity. The claim in the title that they edited might be true, but the original claim from Twitter is not. That's the whole point. From the article: >this one got the general idea and numbers correct (even if the persons actually pictured in the accompanying photograph are difficult or impossible to identify). Difficult or impossible to identify? Dozens of others have done it, and even the author admitted it was made up.
