Poll finds 65% of Republicans say they don't believe Biden's election was legitimate

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

WASHINGTON (AP) — About two-thirds of Republicans say Joe Biden was not legitimately elected president, according to a new poll conducted barely two weeks after he was inaugurated.

The poll from the Associated Press–NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows 33% of Republicans say Biden was legitimately elected as the 46th president of the United States, while 65% say he was not. Overall, roughly two-thirds of Americans say Biden was legitimately elected, with nearly all Democrats saying so.

Former President Donald Trump and his allies disputed the outcome of the 2020 election for months, arguing without evidence that it was stolen and that there was fraudulent voting in pivotal states. Courts dismissed those allegations in lawsuits. State and local election officials verified — and, in some cases, reverified — that voting was fair and secure. Trump’s own attorney general said there was no evidence of widespread fraud.

Among the findings in the survey, conducted Jan. 28-Feb. 1:

1. I weep for this country

ignorance and hate are rooted deep in the marrow of the population.

9. If you have made a broth or gravy, the flavor becomes more intense as

there is less of it. The Republican Party is finally shrinking, some people can no longer tolerate the craziness and have dropped their registration. So the ones left are obviously going to tend toward batshit crazy. The more wise 35% that remain really have an important decision to make, do they bail, or do they stay in that party and get dragged down a rathole.

[OhNo-Really]

12. Wait! Only 60% admitted it out loud

These are people who voted again for Captain Crazy Pants.

40% just lied like their Former Faux Savior lied 🤥

[Irish_Dem]

13. I do too. Ignorance, racism and hatred seem to be everywhere.

America has fallen so far.

[TwilightZone]

2. That's the problem with getting one's "news" from only one source.

I'm using source to mean most (or all) right-wing media because they all read from the same script.

3. Scary

[marmar]

4. I have no f**** left to give about Republican voters.

11. Thy field is barren

[The Wizard]

5. A majority of the minority

is still a minority. That's about 15% of the population meaning 85 % believe Biden is the legitimate president.

[brewens]

20. I was just thinking that 35% was gonna be a problem for them. If FOX "News" persists in

the election fraud claims and fights Newsmax and OAN for the Q-Landers, those at least partially lucid republicans won't be impressed.

[OAITW r.2.0]

6. Looking at it another way, about 25% of voters don't believe Biden won.

Seems about right.

[onecaliberal]

7. I don't care what people who are too stupid to breathe think.

[MacKasey]

8. 65% of Republicans are in a cult

I want to know what percentage of Independents think the election not legitimate?

If the democrats win over the majority of Independents, that's the ball game.

[NoMoreRepugs]

10. Numbers like these reaffirm my belief that reconciliation

of the parties is impossible for the foreseeable future.

14. republicans aren't legitimate, they are bastards

[VMA131Marine]

15. That's actually an improvement over 2016 ...

when 72% of Republicans didn’t think Barack Obama was a natural born citizen and therefore not a legitimate president.
