No Forgiveness for Election Cheaters, says Rasmussen Poll

October 31, 2024 By Dave Workman

A new Rasmussen survey shows a lot of people are worried about election tampering, and they want stiff punishment for cheaters.

A new national poll of likely voters reveals that 43 percent believe election officials found guilty of cheating in elections should be prohibited from holding public office in the future, while 19 percent think they should go to prison, another 9 percent say they should be fined and 2 percent “would impose the death penalty.”

The data comes from the Rasmussen polling firm, which reached out to 1,854 likely voters Oct. 27-29. The survey has a margin of sampling error of +/- 2 percentage points and a 95 percent level of confidence.

A whopping 49 percent of survey respondents “believe there are election workers and officials who have enabled fraud in elections, while 27% don’t think so and 24% are not sure.”

With the national elections only days away, the numbers reflect growing concern among Americans that election tampering is, or could become, a serious problem.

According to Rasmussen, “48 percent believe it is likely that officials who have enabled election cheating will be held criminally accountable, including 26 percent who consider it Very Likely, but 45 percent don’t think it’s likely cheating election officials will face criminal charges, including 14 percent say it’s Not At All Likely.”

Breaking things down along party lines, 62 percent of Republicans, 38 percent okf Democrats and 47 percent of Independents “think there are election workers and officials who have enabled fraud in elections,” Rasmussen discovered.

“While 62% of Democrats believe it’s likely that officials who have enabled election cheating will be held criminally accountable,” Rasmussen said, “that belief is shared by only 38% of Republicans and 41% of unaffiliated voters. Democrats are less likely than Republicans or unaffiliated voters to say officials found guilty of cheating in elections should be subjected to prohibition from holding public office, fines and prison sentences.”

As the election looms just over the horizon, another poll shows the swing state of Michigan at nearly a dead heat between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, according to Fox News, with the former president holding a slight lead, but well within the margin of error.

Fox is reporting that a Washington Post poll of 1,004 registered voters “reveals that Trump is leading Harris there 47% to 45%. Among that group, those who said they were likely to vote for Harris over Trump 47%-46%.”

This poll was conducted Oct. 24-28 with a 3.7 percent margin of error, so the Michigan vote could be down to the wire.  

An unscientific Fox reader poll showed 82 percent of respondents believe there is a strong chance Trump will win Tuesday.
