'The first major test of the election denialism era has arrived,' writes Oliver Darcy

Tuesday’s midterms will be the first significant contest since conspiracy theories and lies about the US election process swallowed one of its two major parties whole. A recent poll found a disturbing 66% of Republicans still believe that President Joe Biden was not legitimately elected. In truth, the toxicity in the country’s information well has only gotten worse since 2020.

As Donie O’Sullivan wrote, “There are tens of thousands of different cities, counties, and townships across the 50 states and multiple territories that play a role in administering elections, most of them do things a little differently. There are different machines to cast and count ballots, there are different local election laws and procedures. There is going to be confusion, there are going to be mistakes.” But small mistakes that are corrected do not translate to mass fraud.

Whichever side loses will claim fraud

I don’t think anyone thinks the elections will be going towards more of the idiocy of the left. I don’t know a single independent or libertarian who leans in that direction. Who cares what the republicans believe. We all only care that the democrats have shown to be incompetent.

Lol.
