It’s the second year of the Biden presidency, but readers appear most interested in fact checks that re-litigate aspects of the 2020 election, especially allegations about Hunter Biden, the president’s son. Moreover, yet again, few fact checks about President Biden’s utterances made it in the list of the 10 most-read fact checks thus far this year.
By a large margin, our continuing coverage of former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and his voting record especially captivated readers, with three of our articles on Meadows ending up in the top 10. We have listed them all together to avoid being repetitive.
The Fact Checker’s reporting showed that in 2020 Debra Meadows, wife of the former chief of staff, signed at least two forms — a voter registration form and the one-stop application — that warned of legal consequences if falsely completed and signed. Yet Debra Meadows certified that she had resided at a 14-by-62-foot mountaintop mobile home for at least 30 days — even though she did not live there. Our disclosure of this form was the latest in a string of revelations concerning the former chief of staff — who echoed President Donald Trump’s false claims of election fraud in 2020 — and his wife. Other popular articles on the Meadowses’ voting habits included “Mark Meadows was simultaneously registered to vote in three states” and “Mark Meadows, his wife, Debra, and their trailer-home voter registration.”
