Less than 24 hours after Donald Trump was elected the 47th president of the United States, social media users began pushing two conflicting narratives of election fraud. In a narrative being pushed by Trump supporters, the vote total in 2020, which is much higher than 2016 and 2024, is used to suggest the votes must have been manufactured when Biden won. Harris supporters question how her numbers can be so much lower. But both narratives are unfounded. Votes are still being counted in the 2024 election, so the total is not known and claims of election fraud in 2020 have been investigated repeatedly and knocked down.
