A poll conducted during and after the 2022 U.S. midterm elections found that a majority of U.S. likely voters believe cheating probably affected the outcome of “some elections this year.”
Rasmussen Reports surveyed 1,000Americans on November 8 and 9, both online and by phone, with election-related questions including, “How likely is it that the outcome of some elections this year will be affected by cheating?”
According to a report released Monday, 57 percent of those surveyed said they think it is likely that cheating affected election outcomes, including 30 percent who believe that it is “very likely.” Forty percent of respondents indicated they do not believe cheating is likely to have affected election results, including 18 percent who believe it is “not at all likely.”
“These are the highest numbers we’ve seen when considering cheating in midterm cycles,” remarked Mark Mitchell, the head pollster of Rasmussen Reports, as he reviewed the survey responses.
