Public Fallback Report

Election misinformation risks and mitigation strategies

A public TESRAC example report outlining misinformation risks and practical mitigation strategies for election stakeholders.

Public fallback brief

  • The most damaging misinformation often targets process trust, timing, and local administrative details.
  • Prebunking, rapid correction, trusted local messengers, and clear official pages reduce confusion.
  • Generative AI increases volume and polish but does not replace classic rumor dynamics.

Caveats

  • Risk varies by election type, local media environment, and platform behavior.
  • Mitigation must avoid amplifying false claims unnecessarily.

Source quality and freshness

Use election officials, platform transparency reports, academic research, and nonpartisan civic organizations.

Create a new report close to the election because narratives and platform policies change.

Example next steps

  1. Publish authoritative process explainers before misinformation peaks.
  1. Prepare escalation paths for false voting logistics claims.
  1. Track local-language and community-specific channels.
