WNEP error fuels conspiracy theories among Trump supporters in Pennsylvania

An error by WNEP, an ABC affiliate in Pennsylvania, led to confusion among Trump supporters when a graphic showed false election results during a Formula 1 race. The graphic displayed Trump losing to Kamala Harris by 5%, despite the election not yet occurring. WNEP clarified that the results were random test data mistakenly aired. The station stated these numbers were meant for equipment testing ahead of election night and should not have been shown. The incident sparked conspiracy theories among Trump supporters, who expressed concerns about election integrity. This reaction reflects ongoing distrust in the electoral process, heightened by previous claims of fraud in the 2020 election.
