Election Fraud Claims Fade as Trump Secures Victory

TL;DR Summary
As Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 presidential election became apparent, the surge of online claims about election fraud significantly decreased. Prior to the election, social media platforms were rife with baseless allegations of voter fraud, particularly focusing on technical issues in states like Pennsylvania. However, once Trump was declared the winner, these narratives lost momentum, highlighting how such claims are often used strategically to contest unfavorable outcomes. Despite the reduction in misinformation, some false claims persist in races yet to be decided, though they lack the intensity of the "Stop the Steal" movement from 2020.
