In contrast, Chris Chen, a Boston-based financial planner, said, the major reason that Republican rank-and-file voters think there is a need for an audit “is because of the news they consume," he said. “Short of shutting down the Fox/OANN/Newsmax/ fever swamp, the challenge is how to get actual news to their viewers so that we can come back to a common set of facts. If we do a 10-day audit, what happens afterwards when the audit contradicts Fox & Co.? Will we go to a 20-day audit?”
