66% of GOP-registered voters expressed a lack of confidence about accurate vote counts. This number went down from 85% in a similar NBC poll conducted last October 2020.

In addition, 29% of Republican voters said they are not confident in getting their vote accurately counted in the future. This is an increase from 11% who believed the same thing a year ago. 

Meanwhile, Democrats remain steady in their belief in accurate vote counting. 89% of Democrats say they have no problems believing their votes will count.

This is in contrast with Republicans' confidence. GOP voters’s confidence over voting results dramatically fell after former President Donald Trump’s loss in last year’s elections. Trump has continually gone on rallies and public events decrying that Democrats stole the elections from him. 

Independents Also Getting Doubtful On Vote Count

In last year’s NBC poll, 84% of Republicans said they were confident in the vote count. This is at par with the Democrat’s confidence.

This year, only 41% of Republicans share that view. In addition, 50% casted doubt on getting their votes counted accurately.

Only 22% of GOP Voters Believe Biden Legitimately Elected

Only 22% of Republicans agreed that Biden won the elections fair and square. In addition, 71% of independents and 93% of Democrats agreed that Biden's election victory was legitimate.

In total, 58% of American adults agreed that Biden legitimately won the elections. Meanwhile on average, 38% of voters insist that Biden did not legitimately win. 

Most other demographic groups also shared the same sentiment. Only 35% of rural voters, 42% of whites without a college degree, and 21% of unvaccinated Americans support the notion that Biden won the elections. 

2000 Presidential Elections Also Shared Similar Vote Results

The public’s trust in the legitimacy of the elections also came under fire during the 2000 presidential elections. The results of the election needed a Supreme Court decision in order to resolve and proclaim the winner. 

George W. Bush won a hotly contested vote in 2000 against Democrat candidate Al Gore. From Bush’s inauguration in January 2001 to November, the number of Americans who supported the elections’ legitimacy went up from 55% to 58%. 

Meanwhile, those who believe the opposite dropped from 39% to 35%. During that period, around 90% of GOP voters said that Bush's election was legitimate. In contrast, Democrats who said the same grew from 20% to 32% by November.
