In the midst of another election year, Donald Trump has primed his supporters to reject the results of a tight race, despite the courts, audits, and reviews proving his claims of a stolen election in 2020 to be false. Trump is campaigning as the 2024 Republican presidential nominee, encouraging his supporters to make the election “too big to rig.” While some Trump supporters are ready to accept another potential loss, others remain convinced that the 2020 election was stolen. First-time voter Thomas Van Overloop is eager to cast his ballot in person and move forward, rather than dwelling on past election disputes. Trump voter David Ortez hopes for a peaceful outcome, stressing the importance of accepting the results and avoiding violence.
Lauren Marougy, a Trump voter from Michigan, is undecided on whether she believes Trump’s 2020 loss was legitimate but is prepared to accept the outcome of the upcoming election. Meanwhile, Republican poll worker Josie Kornev emphasizes the importance of voting and respecting the results, despite her own party affiliation. Contractor Shawn Clapper plans to vote absentee, despite his belief that the 2020 election was stolen, while retired engineer Ron Piskor is hesitant to accept a Trump loss but is willing to wait and see. Manufacturer Matt Swift, who supports Trump based on his job experiences during the previous administration, plans to vote in person but will have no issue accepting the results, even if Trump does not win. Overall, while some Trump supporters may harbor doubts about the election process, many are prepared to move forward and respect the outcome of the upcoming election.
