11:42Now PlayingPresident-elect Donald Trump is suing the Des Moines Register and its top pollster J. Ann Selzer for "brazen election interference" and fraud over its final 2024 presidential poll showing Vice President Kamala Harris leading him in Iowa, despite his ultimate victory in the state by more than 13 percentage points, Fox News Digital has learned.
The lawsuit was filed Monday night in Polk County, Iowa under the Iowa Consumer Fraud Act and related provisions. It says it seeks "accountability for brazen election interference committed by" the Des Moines Register (DMR) and Selzer "in favor of now-defeated former Democrat candidate Kamala Harris through use of a leaked and manipulated Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll conducted by Selzer and S&C and published by DMR and Gannett in the Des Moines Register on Nov. 2, 2024."
The lawsuit is also against the parent company of the Des Moines Register, Gannett, which also owns other publications, including USA Today.
A highly anticipated election poll from J. Ann Selzer, the "gold standard" pollster in Iowa, was printed in The Des Moines Register on Saturday, Nov. 2, 2024, showing Kamala Harris beating Donald Trump by 3 points in the Hawkeye State.
The poll was an outlier, and Trump ultimately won the state by a 13-point margin, winning 56% of the vote to Harris’ 42.7%.
Last month, Selzer announced she was ending her election polling.
LiveNOW's Andrew Craft spoke about the lawsuit with attorney Tre Lovell.
