This doesn't jibe with the facts: https://news.gallup.com/poll/197441/accept-trump-legitimate-president.aspx https://news.gallup.com/poll/197441/accept-trump-legitimate-... (24% believed Trump was illegitimate)
> > Bush in 2000?
> This is the consensus opinion among Democrats.
This also doesn't match the facts: https://news.gallup.com/poll/2188/black-americans-feel-cheated-election-2000.aspx https://news.gallup.com/poll/2188/black-americans-feel-cheat... (31%)
- upsidesinclude 4y agoBlah blah "Nearly one third..." So, by rough equivalency the same amount of either Republicans OR Democrats belive in stolen elections. The portrayal of either party by the other is ridiculous. Clearly it is both a common and non-partisan belief. Safely put, one in three United States Statesians don't believe in the legitimacy of elections they don't win.
- Nursie 4y ago> So, by rough equivalency the same amount of either Republicans OR Democrats belive in stolen elections. "one-third of Americans still believe the 2020 presidential election was stolen." Which is a lot higher than one third of Democrats believing that about the other things you brought up.
- atq2119 4y agoAside from the sibling comment's point, keep in mind that the 2000 election was actually decided by a court case. Regardless of how you judge this fact personally, it is at the very least bound to distort survey responses.
- jjeaff 4y agoDepending on the poll, 60-75% of Republicans think the 2020 election was stolen.
