Two-thirds in US fear violence could follow election, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds

Trump is once again laying the groundwork to contest the results should he lose to Biden a second time. — Reuters picWASHINGTON, May 23 — Two out of three Americans say they are concerned that political violence could follow the November 5 election rematch between Democratic President Joe Biden and his Republican predecessor Donald Trump , a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found.

Trump is once again laying the groundwork to contest the results should he lose to Biden a second time. Outside the New York courtroom where his criminal hush money trial is taking place, fellow Republican officeholders have repeated the falsehood that the 2020 election was stolen from him.The poll, conducted May 7-14, found that Republicans harbour more distrust in the fairness of US elections than Democrats. Only 47 per cent said they were confident that the results of the November election will be accurate and legitimate, compared with 87 per cent of Democrats who expressed confidence.

More than 1,400 people have been arrested for their involvement in the attack and more than 500 of those have been sentenced to prison, according to the US Justice Department. They include leaders of the extremist Oath Keepers and Proud Boys groups. Trump has characterised those behind bars as “hostages” and has said he may pardon some of them if he returns to the White House.
