The Election Research Institute, founded by Honey, spearheaded a Georgia election rule change permitting delayed certification of tallies to address ballot discrepancies, despite these being typically minor issues. Honey also leads Pennsylvania Fair Elections, an organization that disseminated election misinformation, echoing claims of election fraud in 2020 in collaboration with other activists. This group is aligned with individuals who continue to question election results. This move is seen as a continuation of the Trump administration’s pursuit of debunked conspiracy theories about the 2020 election.

The conspiracy theory’s propagation is amplified by similar unfounded theories online and endorsements from Trump administration members like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has spread misinformation about vaccines and chemtrails. These actions have demonstrably contributed to the spread of these false narratives.
