Misinformation in electoral contexts can have severe consequences, undermining democratic processes and eroding public trust. Voters may make decisions based on false narratives, leading to the election of candidates who do not genuinely reflect the electorate's interests. This distortion of reality can also fuel polarization, as different groups become entrenched in competing falsehoods. Furthermore, misinformation can discourage voter participation, creating disillusionment with the system. Ultimately, the spread of misinformation complicates the ability to achieve informed consent, a fundamental principle of democracy, and can further entrench divisions within society.
