    Years of fascist propaganda. Republicans have been explaining away their losses by blaming it on widespread voter fraud for a while now. Typically they claim illegal immigrants are allowed to vote, and that democrats submit fake votes from dead people.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if there was widespread election fraud but I don’t think it’s the local unregistered migrants voting for 99 percent Hitler

        In 2020 there were something like 600 confirmed voter fraud cases in the states that Trump was contesting. There is possibly rigging going on behind the scenes as electronic voting machines have been repeatedly shown to have massive security vulnerabilities, but the fact the republicans aren’t pushing to go back to paper suggests that if there is real voting fraud, they’re fine with it.
