Quoted: Barry Burden, director of the Elections Research Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, said Trump’s continual fixation on delegitimatizing the outcome of the 2020 election overlooks the fact that Republicans did well down ballot that year.
“Many supporters of Donald Trump remain incredulous that he could have lost Wisconsin. They view Biden as a weak candidate and point to big crowds at Trump’s rallies and his online followings as evidence that he should have won,” Burden said. “Assuming there was election fraud is a way to keep those beliefs in tact.”
