Since 2012, Donald Trump and many others, mainly from the political right, and specifically in the third quarter of 2020 and continuing into 2021, have said that there was substantial voter fraud in the US 2016, 2018 and 2020 elections. Further, they have said but for that fraud Trump would have won the popular vote in the 2016 election, and would have won the 2020 election and be president today.
To gain an objective view of the election and voter fraud claims related to the 2016 to 2020 elections, this section charts all election and voter fraud convictions (174 to date - including fraudulently voting and registering to vote, false declaration of candidacy, and facilitating or attempting to vote) from the 2016 to 2020 elections, with a focus on election and voter fraud concerning the congressional or presidential election results.
The information below has come from the Google, the Heritage Foundation Election Fraud Database, and other sources. We have included our own summaries.
This is marked draft because we believe there are more convictions that fit the criteria, and we are still looking for data in the convictions including the party affiliation of the defendants or if they tried to vote for a Republican, Democrat or other party.
Please let us know of any voter fraud convictions we have missed.
