Donald Trump's supporters thought voter fraud could determine the election outcome -- until he won. Heading into Election Day, nearly 9 in 10 Trump voters said fraud was a serious issue. Afterward, just a bit over one-third said so.

More from the poll ...

... Trump's victory over Vice President Kamala Harris has scrambled public opinion about a range of other issues, too. For example, his supporters were also more likely to feel good about the economy after the election " while Harris supporters adopted a more negative outlook.

Those are among the results of a new POLITICO|Morning Consult poll, designed to measure change in public opinion before and after the election. The results largely track with recent consumer sentiment data and comments from Republican leaders.

Our new poll showed voters' perceptions of issues like election security and the economy swung substantially post-election, with deep differences based on who they voted for. The poll also found mixed expectations for a second Trump term.

The first poll (toplines, crosstabs) was conducted from Oct. 30 to Nov. 1, the week before the election, while the second (toplines, crosstabs) was in the field from Nov. 20 through 22, two weeks after Trump's victory. Both surveys sampled more than 4,000 registered voters, with a margin of error of 2 percentage points.

Here are some of the big takeaways we learned from the results.

Trump supporters worried less about voter fraud after he won ...

Stated differently....

That whole MAGA "voter fraud" thing now looks to be a canard.

So you admit your opinion is biased.

Yep. very different. Trump has not yet gained office and already he has Canada and Mexico scrambling to please him [latest in Mexico is largest fentanyl bust]. Also, 50 world leaders invited to the reopening of the Notre Dame cathedral and Trump invited instead of biden - go figure... [it''s almost like he was already president]

BTW: When a teen [age 17] spent a summer in France and toured Notre Dame among other interesting locations such as the Palace of Versailles. Also visited Rome and Geneva. Great memories. What was the best part was my Great Aunt sent me, along with much in American Express checks and traveling alone to Europe was enlightening in many ways. Best memory was a pretty french girl Anique Mignee in a little town [Villard de Lans] up in the mountains from Grenoble : )

Wow, degrading your own party. Work harder next time, pick a better candidate who didn't blow 1.5 billion in three months.

The $1.5 billion is nothing compared to the $44 billion Musk spent to help Trump win the election.

The GOP said voter fraud would be a concern if the election was close. It wasn't.

So the GOP admits that voter fraud was not, is not, as widespread as they have asserted previously.

Which part are you uncertain of?

Elon Musk buying Twitter or Elon Musk helping Trump win the election.

#21. Oh I see. So lets try and add up the donations the editorial boards of the Wash Post, NY Times made by their articles. Lets also figure in ABC,NBC,CBS.
Sorry, but Musk's donations didn't win the election for Trump, Harris being a moron and her supporters being the same won him the election. Your "the world will end" whining for 8 years definitely didn't do your candidate any favors.

#2 | Posted by LampLighter

Canard is far too kind of a word for what it is and has been since the beginning.

2016 - He was going to lose due to voter fraud. He won. None was found except for him.
2020 - He lost do to voter fraud. None was found except for him.
2024 - He was going to lose due to voter fraud. He won. None has been found so far and if it was it was for him.

Rubes gonna rube.

Then why proceed to prove you don't.

Musk has been inseparable from Trump since prior to the election.

He was using X to target voters in swing districts and controlling the information they were being fed.

This has been documented.

You're such a moron. It would be funny if it weren't so tragic for our nation.

Musk single handedly gave more to Trump and did more for Trump than any of those organizations.

It's why Musk is planning what the GOP will be doing in 2025.

You elected President Musk and Hand puppet Trump.

I can't help you understand. You're too fkkking entrenched into the cult. Your head is too far up Trump's dung Gash.

I don't follow most of that post about the "liberal MSM". But Musk absolutely was a HUGE influence. A lot of morons worship his every word. He's now a right wing fav. I can't wait until the slash SS, Medicare and Medicaid. GOP won't win for decades.

Harris was a flawed candidate from go and I said that here when Biden dropped and she was the anointed one but whoever the senior people were on her campaign were idiots and that's why she lost. (Beyond average American voter's lack of general knowledge and comprehension.)

What the MAGAts don't understand is that it still IS all about fraud-the one they voted into office!
