Since Jan. 6, 2021, key election deniers are appearing often at grassroots events

Mike Lindell was an early leader in the movement to sow doubt about the 2020 election and, along with former President Donald Trump, helped amplify some of the other election deniers NPR tracked. Even as efforts to debunk false claims of election fraud have intensified, misinformation continues to circulate.

Notes

NPR tracked Lindell, Frank, Keshel and Clements based on events advertised on their public social media accounts, the websites and social media accounts of local organizations, events NPR attended, video footage and news reports. Dots represent one person’s appearance at an event. A small number of events reflect a remote appearance. For multi-day events, NPR noted only the first day of the event.
