Polling exposes deep doubt among GOP voters to Biden's 'win'
Polling data indicates that a vast majority of Republicans believe voter fraud helped President-elect Joe Biden win the presidency and less than half of Republicans accept the outcome of the election.
A new NPR/Ipsos poll released Wednesday found that while 33% of all respondents believe voter fraud helped Biden win the 2020 election, 67% of Republicans said the same. Only 44% of Republicans surveyed said they accept the outcome of the election and 71% said there is a deep state working to undermine President Donald Trump.

Brooke Williams, one of the Republicans surveyed, said she believed there was enough evidence to suggest Biden’s win was fraudulent. “There’s just too much information out there,” she said during a follow-up interview with NPR. “I can’t see how anybody is not thoroughly convinced that Biden was illegally elected.”
Responses to the survey were split along partisan lines as a notable majority of Independents and Democrats said they accepted the outcome of the election. Only 28% of Independents and 11% of Democrats believed voter fraud helped Biden win.

This poll should be seen as a warning sign, especially for Senate Republicans who seem prepared to "legitimize" the vote despite the doubts of their constituents. Only a handful of Republican Senators have questioned the Biden vote in swing states.
The media and the Democrats have failed to persuade the majority of Republicans that this was a fair election. The Senate leadership appears willing to accept a certain amount of vote fraud or dismiss it. This could be a mistake that will haunt them.
