The report concludes with a sweeping series of reform recommendations to better enable us to fight back against election disinformation.\r\n\r\n\"In America, we expect and deserve clean elections but Facebook and other social media giants have largely failed in their duty to identify and remove election disinformation from their platforms. It is time for more regulation and outside oversight before these companies allow still more damage to be done to Americans\u2019 faith in our elections,\u201d <strong>n\u00f3i<\/strong><strong> Karen Hobert Flynn, Ch\u1ee7 t\u1ecbch t\u1ed5 ch\u1ee9c Common Cause<\/strong>. \u201cThe social media companies are not the only culprits here, but they have to varying degrees stood by while The Big Lie has gained momentum on their platforms. Today, roughly 1 in 3 Americans\u2014and nearly two-thirds of Republicans\u2014wrongly <a href=\"https:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/poll-two-thirds-of-republicans-still-think-the-2020-election-was-rigged-165934695.html\">believe<\/a> the 2020 election was \u2018rigged and stolen from Trump.\u2019 Those lies, which flourished on social media, ultimately <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justsecurity.org\/74622\/stopthesteal-timeline-of-social-media-and-extremist-activities-leading-to-1-6-insurrection\/\">fueled the January 6<\/a> insurrection.\u201d\r\n\r\nThe report provides an overview of election disinformation, explaining what it is, how it\u2019s being spread, and who is spreading it. It identifies the most common forms of election disinformation to include communications providing the wrong election date, bogus election rules, voter intimidation, untrue claims about election integrity or security, and untrue claims post-election about results. It finds most common vehicles for disseminating disinformation include social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, junk websites, mainstream media like Fox News, search engines like Google, as well as email, text messages, and robocalls.\r\n\r\n\"Common Cause staff, disinformation analysts, and thousands of volunteers have been on the front lines fighting election disinformation and we have witnessed firsthand its explosion on social media in recent years,\u201d <strong>n\u00f3i<\/strong><strong> Jesse Littlewood, Common Cause Vice President for Campaigns<\/strong>. \u201cWe have also seen and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Disinfo_WhitePaperv3.pdf\">documented<\/a> the social media companies\u2019 failures in their public commitment to prevent the spread of disinformation about elections \u2013 failures <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/tech\/2021\/10\/05\/facebook-whistleblower-live-updates-frances-haugen-speaks-congress\/6001909001\/\">echoed<\/a> by Facebook whistleblower\u00a0Frances Haugen. The current state of affairs is nothing short of dangerous and the time is now for comprehensive reforms.\u201d\u00a0<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe report goes on to detail current federal and state laws regulating election disinformation\u2014voting rights, campaign finance, communications, consumer protection, media literacy, and privacy laws\u2014and the shortcomings of current laws. It then examines the civic integrity policies of some of the largest social media companies, the policies Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube have put in place to address abuses of their platforms for the dissemination of election disinformation. Those policies, the report shows, have proven insufficient and ineffective in combatting the very serious threat of election disinformation.\r\n\r\n\u201cThe time to act is now before any more damage is done and our actions must be sweeping in order to combat the dire threat of election disinformation,\u201d <strong>Yosef Getachew, Gi\u00e1m \u0111\u1ed1c Ch\u01b0\u01a1ng tr\u00ecnh D\u00e2n ch\u1ee7 v\u00e0 Truy\u1ec1n th\u00f4ng v\u00ec m\u1ee5c \u0111\u00edch chung, cho bi\u1ebft.<\/strong> \u201cThe reforms must include changes to state and federal laws encompassing voting rights, campaign finance, privacy, media, as well reforms to federal and state executive and regulatory agencies. Social media companies must also take additional steps to strengthen their civic integrity policies and close loopholes that allow bad actors to spread harmful content.\u201d\r\n\r\nThe report\u2019s final section and primary focus is a series of state, federal and corporate reforms to help stem the flow of election disinformation that is undermining Americans' faith in the nation\u2019s elections.
