And there was election fraud in 2020 (there is always) ... The question is whether any of those things are of scale enough to actually change results.
Russia has always interfered with US elections and the US has always waged propaganda war in the Russia and former USSR.
There is always bought votes or people voting when they are not allowed and so on.
Russian impact on election was way smaller than the media time and mind share of democrats and vice versa for Republicans.
- marcinzm 5y agoI've seen plenty of Republicans complaining this election cycle about fraud and a stolen election. Given how close these elections have been you don't need that much of an impact to cause changes.
- Schiendelman 5y agoThe things you’re describing, bought votes and people voting when they shouldn’t, aren’t really issues. Using propaganda effectively to make people believe fake things in service of a foreign power is an issue. And it changes votes at scale. Exactly what scale is open for debate. How many votes do you think Russian propaganda influenced? And which study are you basing that belief off?
