Disinformation Surge Threatens Integrity of 2024 US Election
Russian influence operations and domestic conspiracies are undermining voter confidence as the presidential race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump intensifies.
- Russian actors are disseminating fake videos and misinformation to question the integrity of the election, with a focus on key states like Georgia.
- Conspiracy theories, often amplified by prominent figures, are eroding public trust, with only 28% of Republicans expressing confidence in the national election results.
- Social media platforms, now less regulated, are hotbeds for misleading content, complicating efforts to maintain election integrity.
- The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is countering disinformation with rapid debunking efforts and public awareness campaigns.
- Both foreign and domestic narratives are exploiting the polarized political landscape, with Russia reportedly favoring a Trump victory due to his stance on Ukraine.
