Today, the real threats to election integrity in America.
Since former President Trump lost the 2020 presidential race,
he has been spreading the false claim that the election was stolen and
that the US Is rife with voter fraud.
This has been disproven many times.
State and federal judges have dismissed more
than 50 lawsuits presented by Trump
and his allies challenging the outcome in 2020,
saying there was no evidence of widespread voter fraud.
And yet this rhetoric has had a very real effect on the country.
It's part of what galvanized people to attack the Capitol
on January 6th.
It's led to changes to voting rules in some states,
and it's fueled distrust and paranoia around the voting process,
though for different reasons.
When people say things like election integrity,
they are often talking about very different things without realizing
that they're having two different conversations.
