Fewer Have Election Cheating Concerns for 2024
Four years after many of Donald Trump’s supporters accused Joe Biden of cheating his way into the White House, fewer voters suspect election shenanigans this time around.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 32% of Likely U.S. Voters believe it is likely that the outcome of this year’s election was affected by cheating, including 17% who consider it Very Likely. However, a majority (59%) don’t think it’s likely the election was affected by cheating, including 32% who say it’s Not At All Likely. By comparison, in June 2021 – more than six months after the 2020 election – 41% of voters did not believe Biden had been fairly elected as president. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
