In total, 68% of registered voters said they ranked it as “extremely” important and another 20% deemed it “very” important. Rather than a rare bipartisan consensus, this instead speaks to how much Trump’s false narrative about 2020 has become gospel for the GOP. There is a starkly partisan divide on that front, with 93% of people who voted for Trump in 2020 thinking he’d perform better, versus just 6% who think Biden would. Meanwhile, 4% of Biden 2020 voters said that Trump would fare better at defending democracy, while 94% of those voters believe Biden would safeguard democracy better. A poll from Monmouth University last year likewise found that 68% of Republicans still believe that Biden won only because of that supposed fraud, as Trump still falsely claims.
