Four years ago, Donald Trump spread the lie that Democrats stole the election. He filed lawsuits, led protests and spearheaded misinformation campaigns in an attempt to overturn the result.
Since then, Trump and his allies have been laying the groundwork to question this year’s contest if the numbers don’t go his way. In other words, a Stop the Steal 2.0.
“I’m nervous,” says Rick Hasen, a leading expert on election law and director of the Safeguarding Democracy Project at UCLA. “But I’m not as nervous as I was in 2020.”
