As the 2020 Presidential election reaches its two year anniversary, Donald Trump supporters and midterm candidates continue to spread the falsehood that the former president won the contest.
Election deniers, such as Kari Lake, Mark Finchem and Kristina Karamo, have all enjoyed Trump-endorsements, even as he more recently appeared to pivot over the claim.
The findings of the January 6 committee have further reinforced efforts to put the myth that Trump won to bed. However, dubious claims about the 2020 election continue to emerge, and not just from the right.
In a tweet sent on August 2, 2022, Dash Dobrofsky, host of the Uncovering The Truth podcast, claimed that the only people arrested for election fraud have been Trump supporters. The tweet received more than 17,000 engagements on the social media site.
Voter fraud still looms large in public conversation, as Trump's supporters continue to make the false allegation that the Republican Party won the 2020 presidential election.
Indeed, the January 6 committee continues to examine theextent to which Trump encouraged supporters to the US Capitol following the results.
Although erroneous claims questioning the Biden win persist, multiple reports by Newsweek and other outlets show that most of those charged with voter fraud were, in fact, Republican voters.
These included three Florida residents alleged to have cast multiple ballots and a Pennsylvania man who admitted he had registered his dead mother.
