Former President Trump has publicly stated he will only accept midterm election results if they are perceived as 'fair' or 'honest'. This follows a pattern of questioning electoral integrity and is amplified by far-right social media accounts preemptively casting doubt on the process. The potential for post-election contestation and increased political polarization is assessed as medium-high.
