DISINFO: The election in the US is an absolute deception – it has no connection to democracy
SUMMARY
The US has one of the most archaic election systems in the world with an enormous amount of irregularities. We saw fictitious polling stations, postal voting, all types of fraud, 102%-results. The election in the US is an absolute deception – it has no relation to the majority opinion. This election does not take into consideration the opinions of real people. The word “democracy” is not appropriate there. Thus, the US President is not elected by people.
RESPONSE
Pro-Kremlin disinformation about the US Presidential elections and American democracy in general.
The claims that the US Presidential elections faced an “enormous number of irregularities” is not supported by evidence.
The OSCE Observation Mission states that the 2020 Presidential elections vote was “competitive and well managed”. Read more OSCE statements on the American elections here.
