Trump sues Des Moines Register, pollster for 'election interference' after inaccurate poll

President-elect Donald Trump sued the Des Moines Register and its pollster for "brazen election interference" in publishing a survey the weekend before the election that showed Democrat Kamala Harris with a surprising lead of three percentage points in the state.
Donald Trump has filed a lawsuit against the Des Moines Register and pollster Ann Selzer, alleging election interference due to what he claims was an inaccurate poll. The poll in question, conducted by Selzer & Co. for the Des Moines Register, showed Trump trailing behind President Joe Biden in Iowa, a state where Trump had previously won by significant margins. Trump's legal action contends that the poll was designed to mislead voters and suppress his support by portraying his campaign as weaker than it is. The lawsuit seeks damages and a retraction of the poll results, arguing that the methodology was flawed and the timing was intended to influence the upcoming election. This move is part of Trump's broader strategy to challenge media narratives and polls that he perceives as unfavorable.
