Republicans have long complained that voter fraud has been perpetrated and that this has les to losses on their side. It has even prevented some forms of mail-in voting (although absentee ballots are still accepted), which is a particular issue during the coronavirus pandemic, and may still be an issue for the 2020 Presidential elections.
But is it a real issue? Many Democrats have claimed that it is merely an excuse for restrictions on voting, ID laws, and other things that (they argue) make it harder for less advantaged voters to be able to vote -- and that this harms the Democrats disproportionately. This map is to explore the evidence on both side and determine whether it is indeed a significant issue in the United States.
