Google and others in Big Tech accused of rigging mid-terms in swing states

 Western Journal:

Dr. Robert Epstein, a renowned American psychologist and journalist, believes Google killed the red wave. And, according to him, they did it long before voters ever submitted their ballots.

The former “Psychology Today” editor-in-chief and his research team have concluded that, during the midterms, Google shifted a massive number of votes nationwide.

In states where Republicans lost tight races — such as Arizona — Epstein’s team found “substantial bias … in content that Google and other tech companies were sending people.” Epstein believes the outcomes in these close races may have been impacted by Google’s manipulations.

If not for the biased algorithms, it is possible Kari Lake would have won Arizona’s gubernatorial race outright.

“Based on the data we’ve collected, we think that Google alone probably shifted about 80 million votes in the midterm elections. Now, it sounds like a lot, but remember, this is not a national election. These are midterm elections. So the 80 million votes is spread across hundreds of elections,” Epstein told The Western Journal.

“But what that means though is that, in tight races, over and over again, Google was determining the winner, was determining the outcome. Because all you have to do is shift one percent or a fraction of a percent in a tight race. That flips the outcome,” he explained.

Epstein said Google is shifting votes using “ephemeral experiences.” According to him, ephemeral experiences are content Google sends to users that appear in the form of an ad or a prompt, such as “Go vote.” This includes biased search results, search suggestions, voting reminders and interactions with digital personal assistants, to name a few examples.

These messages impact the user and then vanish for good, without the user ever knowing they have been manipulated. This makes them a powerful manipulation tool because these experiences can neither be reconstructed nor tracked by authorities.

Epstein was able to track these ephemeral experiences with a team of researchers. These researchers monitored the computers of more than 3,000 volunteers across the country — Republicans, Democrats and Independents.

During the midterms, Epstein and his team captured evidence of partisan manipulation. According to Epstein, his team was able to capture 2.4 million ephemeral experiences, which consistently had a liberal bias. It was this data collection that led the team to the conclusion that the bias was enough to shift 80 million votes.

This Google operation is said to have been especially effective in Arizona and probably did change the results of the election benefitting Democrats.
