Professor Karen Greenberg spoke with the Institute for Public Accuracy about how the Trump campaign has been using tactics to further election denialism.
“The Trump team is using many tactics [to further]election denialism. In Michigan, it looked like some voters had voted more than once. Election deniers are looking for ways to deny the results. Whether it’s about election fraud, or something wrong with the process, or intimidation, these are all attempts––before, on Election Day, and in the aftermath––to say that the results of this election can be denied. The reports from Michigan alerts us to the fact that these groups are watching for anything they can find and not waiting to find out whether it’s valid or invalid. The Michigan case shows that people are watching for any fault line or possible impropriety. We’re also seeing reports of election deniers being on election boards.”
