Big tech companies, especially Google, can shift a lot of votes, without people knowing and without leaving a paper trail, said psychiatrist Dr. Robert Epstein in an interview with One Americas News Network.
While there is a bipartisan interest on how to deal with these big tech companies, Dr. Epstein said that Congress is just not gone get it together on time to protect us, the American public, from interference in the 2020 election by big tech. Google has likely been determining the outcomes of upwards of 25 percent of the national elections worldwide since at least 2015. This is because many races are very close and because Googles persuasive technologies are very powerful.
In the weeks leading up to the 2018 election, bias in Googles search results may have shifted upwards of 78.2 million votes to the candidates of one political party (spread across hundreds of local and regional races). This number is based on data captured by my 2018 monitoring system, which preserved more than 47,000 election-related searches on Google, Bing, and Yahoo, along with the nearly 400,000 web pages to which the search results linked. Strong political bias toward one party was evident, once again, in Google searches.
These effects are nothing like Russian-placed ads or fake news stories. Russian interference, although troubling and unacceptable, does not, in my opinion, shift many votes (Epstein, 2017d, 2018a). Ads and news stories are competitive and visible, like billboards. The kinds of ephemeral effects I am studying, however, are invisible and non-competitive. They are controlled entirely by Big Tech companies, and there is no way to counteract them.

Lead might be counteractive.
Sine all the shifting was to help one party and now that party controls the House nothing will be done about it. Nothing. This is a bigger threat to Trump then any of the Rats candidates.
We're up against it.
The infinitesimally small number or Russian ads were click bait to make money, not to shift votes.
DOJ. Pick up the RED PHONE
78 million is over half the number of votes cast in the presidential election.
If the guy is counting every vote in every separate election that may have been changed by google searches, it's more possible, but still, using such numbers makes the guy sound like an idiot.
Sounds like an in kind political contribution that would have a value far beyond donation limits
I...must...vote...the...way the Google...search algorithm...tells me...to vote....zzzz
I’m sorry but I don’t buy this, even a little. Only morons would change their votes based on internet reports and most of those morons were liberals to start with because you don’t have to be rational to be a liberal.
72.8 million? I believe they are biased and all, but that number seems to come out of someone’s butt...

It seems he's counting vote marks. One voter could have been persuaded by Google searches to choose half a dozen particular candidates. That would be 6 of those 78 million.

I admit the number seems a little high but the those who doubt the impact of search engines should view the documentary: “The Creepy Line”:

+++++
But that is exactly what he was doing. Remember how we seemed to lose every close race in 2018? Could be the Google Tax working its evil.
Despite Social Media’s subversive tactics, Clinton still lost in 2016.
While we may be glad that Bozo the Clown will be the democratic nominee in 2020 - we must not forget that Social Media can and will get him or her elected.
Unless we take immediate action NOW.
She needs to check her math.
You need to read more from Dr. Epstein. You need to research "The Creepy Line".
Sheeple can only be bombarded just so much with anti-Trump results and pro-liberal articles. Millions of votes went to Hillary in 2016 because Google.
Believe they are counting voters per voter.
