Thrilled to share this press release of @UMassAmherst about our research revealing questionable votes and biases in tens of thousands of US presidential #election polls on @X (conducted w @StephenAI, @vijayalaks26304, @hide_yourself, @yang3kc, @junghwanyang).
Don't believe everything you see on social media.
Informal political polls conducted on X during both the 2016 and 2020 U.S. presidential elections were significantly skewed by questionable votes.

First paper🔬 on social polls!!!🗳️
Over 100k polls gauged support for 2020 US presidential candidates on @X, and gathered >20m votes. They favored Trump by >10% (on average). Many were used to reinforce voter fraud beliefs and were likely manipulated by bots and fake votes.

Many social polls were used to insinuate an alternative winner of the election. Some polls claimed to “test the accuracy of national polls”. Details in our paper (published with @StephenAI, @vijayalaks26304, @hide_yourself, @yang3kc, @junghwanyang): arxiv.org/abs/2405.11146
