The two most monumental events of the last year in the US were the election of Joe Biden to the presidency and the introduction of Covid-19 vaccines. Yet there are those who falsely believe Biden won only because of fraud or that they shouldn't get a vaccine.
Take a look at the most recent Monmouth University poll, one of the few to ask about both people's vaccine status and how they view the 2020 election result.
Not having received a vaccine was a minority position, at 34%, at the time of the poll in mid-June. Thinking Biden won only because of fraud was a minority position at 32%.
But that third of the electorate for both positions is not the same third.
About 36% of adults who falsely think Biden won only because of fraud have, in fact, received a dose of the Covid-19 vaccine.
This means that when you do the math, only about half (51%) of adults had received a vaccine dose and think Biden won the election fair and square. A slightly lower 45% haven't received a vaccine dose or think Biden didn't win fair and square. (An additional 4% have gotten a dose and aren't sure if Biden won legitimately.)
It turns out that we're not just a 50-50 country when it comes to elections -- we're a 50-50 country when it comes to belief in science and truth about this election.
This isn't to say that believing a conspiracy theory about the election and not having gotten a dose of the vaccine aren't correlated. They are. The Monmouth poll showed that 64% of people who falsely think that Biden won because of voter fraud also have not received a vaccine dose.

Ironic that MSN would publish that right after the big drop of info from Arizona. I on’t believe that only 32% believe that Biden won because of fraud - that number is more likely near 70%. Because he sure didn’t earn the position on merit, and there just can’t be enough people that stupid in the US population to vote for such a man.
As for the Vaxx, it is NOT a vaccine based on the real definition of a vaccine. And it is experimental. And the government has NO business trying to push/force people into taking it without knowing ALL the facts.
What they claim to be science is nothing but leftist propaganda.
scratchin my head. (not about RATS being oversampled)

36% of 32% = 51% ?

something doesn’t jive with the unweighted raw demographic - party vs ideology. Plus they use % for weighted and numbers for unweighted.
