The Republican National Committee (RNC) has falsely claimed that Wisconsin sent 1,000 absentee ballots to ineligible voters, according to the Democracy Docket. The inaccurate accusation was made as part of the RNC’s ongoing efforts to challenge the legitimacy of the 2020 election results.
The RNC’s claim was quickly debunked by Wisconsin election officials, who stated that there was no evidence to support the allegation. The State Elections Commission confirmed that all absentee ballots sent out were to eligible voters who had properly requested them.
This baseless accusation is just one example of the misinformation and disinformation being spread by some political organizations in an attempt to undermine the integrity of the election process. The RNC’s false claim adds to the growing list of debunked conspiracy theories and unfounded allegations being perpetuated by those seeking to sow doubt in the outcome of the election.
Wisconsin has been a key battleground state in the 2020 election, with President-elect Joe Biden narrowly winning the state by just over 20,000 votes. The RNC’s false claim about absentee ballots only serves to further fuel the divisions and tensions surrounding the election results.
In response to the RNC’s misinformation, election officials in Wisconsin are urging voters to continue to have confidence in the electoral system and to reject attempts to delegitimize the democratic process. It is crucial that accurate information is disseminated to the public in order to maintain trust in the integrity of the election results.
