Appeal to Emotion, False Cause, Personal Incredulity

credAIble Evaluation:

The article presents survey data showing public concern over potential ballot tampering in the 2024 election, particularly among Republican voters. The argument relies heavily on emotional appeals, as fears of election tampering are discussed without substantive evidence. The underlying assumption that election workers are likely to engage in misconduct leads to a false cause fallacy, connecting public fear to potential election fraud without sufficient grounding. The skepticism around election security, especially among Republicans, reflects a broader personal incredulity about the integrity of the process. However, actual data supporting these claims is limited.
