Abstract

Interference in the election process from both abroad and within the United States has produced chaos and confusion in business markets, communities, and among voters. Elections have become less reliable as a result of misleading statements. Election deniers are actively working to undermine confidence in our elections and suppress turnout, particularly among voters of color and other communities that have historically been marginalized. The false information spread, which includes lies about the voting process and election workers, has the potential to have significant repercussions for people's abilities to vote and their faith in our elections. Election misinformation poses a threat to democratic processes in the United States. Sixty-four percent of election officials reported in 2022 that spreading false information had made their jobs more dangerous. This chapter uses emerging content from extant literature to discuss cyberpsychology and the complex dynamics of these issues with a primary focus on finding solutions to these problems.
