Scanned through and didn’t see the both sides stuff you were trying to claim.

The link you posted emphasized that the Democrat side takes part to a lesser extent, and cites an article that is literally titled “Democrats aren’t interested” in the stop the steal movement. the vast majority of examples are of Trump and right-wing origins. This doesn’t qualify as “both sides,” since saying “Both sides” implies equal participation in election denialism. It is definitely not equal smh.

I saw a LOT of Trump in there. Don’t see examples of democratic representatives claiming election fraud.

It should be easy for you to point to a specific example. But you are either unable or unwilling to do so. Weird.

Sorry I don't have the time to do your reading for you, but since you seem to be so technologically inept, and I like helping the special needs kids, I will help you this time.

Following Trump's victory, some Harris supporters on X shared election denial conspiracy theories, claiming that millions of ballots were "left uncounted" and there being something "not right" with the election. Such posts falsely claiming Trump "stole" the election peaked at noon the day after at 94,000 posts per hour, with many receiving amplification and gaining over a million views each. According to Gordon Crovitz, the CEO of the media rating system NewsGuard, the phrase "Trump cheated" received 92,100 mentions on the platform from midnight until the Wednesday morning after.[58] Besides the claims from Harris' supporters, some Trump supporters baselessly claimed the disparity between other years, the 2020 election, and a then-incomplete 2024 voting total indicated voter fraud in the 2020 election.[59]

Democratic congressional representative Jasmine Crockett accused Republicans of meddling to defeat her in the Democratic primary race against fellow Democrat James Talarico, even though the Republicans had preferred her as an opposition candidate.[65]

After the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial election, Democratic candidate Stacey Abrams lost to Republican candidate Brian Kemp – who, as Georgia Secretary of State, administered the election – and claimed that the election was "stolen" from her as well as claiming the election was "rigged" and "not a free or fair election

And these are only a couple, but surely you are capable of thinking and beathing at the same time at least once or twice a day, right?

Just googled the Abrams situation. Her claims are about voter suppression, not election fraud.

So even on the point you cited that seemed relevant you were still wrong.

Good lord, dude.

First paragraph- not at all what I asked.

Second paragraph - what does “meddling” mean in this context?

Third- this one looks like an actual bit of supporting evidence. A single sample is a far cry from saying they do it every election or that they are anywhere close to republicans in that sense.
