After the 2022 Midterm: Day-of Misinformation in AZ, the Role of Surrogates, and the Softening the Ground for 2024

In this brief SNAP episode we discuss the role of mis/disinformation in the 2022 US Midterm elections. While many election deniers were not successful in their bids for election, that did not stop misinformation from playing a prominent role leading up to and on the day of the election in the US. We briefly discuss our different experiences voting at the polls in Arizona, the role of surrogates in saying testing content and saying what candidates cannot, and how the ground had been softened for more misinformation in the next election.
