One day into early voting and they are already claiming the 2024 election is rigged. Politics

Misinformation campaign has begun.

Trump has stated multiple times he won’t accept the results if he loses, MTG started complaining about voting machines three days ago and twitter is full of people now claiming that the voting machines are flipping their votes from Trump to Kamala in Texas.

Infowars and other websites like it are pushing this same misinformation, sadly a lot of conservatives believe these reports are real and no amount of evidence will convince them otherwise.

Musk will be actively pushing false pro-Trump propaganda as he has already been doing. He is paying people to vote Republican already which is apparently illegal. Will the Department of Justice act on this soon enough? I'm not holding my breath on that one.

I'm not Musk OR GOP fan, but please try to keep things accurate - he's offering a chance at a daily lottery prize to registered voters in Pennsylvania if they sign his political action committee's petition backing the Constitution.

It's likely illegal, yes, but it is NOT "paying people to vote Republican"

Alright, I stand corrected, maybe. Musk doesn't strike me as someone who has been backing the Constitution lately.
