Google is coming under fire for skewing search results in key voting precincts in favor of Vice President Kamala Harris just hours before the polls close on Election Day, leaving executives promising that a “fix” is coming.

The New York Post reported that Google, the Democratic Party’s largest donor, acknowledged a bias in its algorithm when users query, “Where can I vote for Kamala Harris?” Results currently show an interactive mapping tool that allows searchers to find their local polling place, something that doesn’t occur when searching “Where can I vote for Trump.” In a statement, Google said its search engine is allegedly being confused by the word “Harris,” which is also a county in Texas. “The ‘where to vote’ panel is triggering for some specific searches [because] Harris is also the name of a county in [Texas],” the company said.

They promised a “fix is coming,” adding, “Note very few people actually search for voting places this way.” According to its own website, Google processes 8.5 billion searches from U.S.-based users per day, and is by far the largest search engine on the planet. The interactive display promoted by Google was created by the Voter Information Project from Democracy Works, an institution based in Brooklyn, New York that purports to be nonpartisan.

This isn’t the first time that alarms have been raised about Google’s ability to tilt the outcome of the presidential election. In September, Dr. Robert Epstein, a leading behavioral research expert and founder of the Cambridge Center for Behavioral Studies, issued a chilling warning over Google’s ability to sway election results during a recent episode of the “Joe Rogan Experience.”

“We are finding overwhelming evidence that they are very deliberately and systematically messing with us and our elections especially. I personally believe that as of 2012, the free and fair election, at least at the national level, has not existed,” Epstein told Rogan, adding that results have been “manipulated” since then. He described high-level meetings with Google’s team, who he referred to as “Obama’s tech team,” and gained insight into “all of Google’s shenanigans, all those manipulations.”

“Now, Obama won by five million votes, roughly, and two out of four points came from the tech team, that’s two and a half million votes. By 2016, I had calculated that Google could shift, and it would be toward Hillary Clinton, of course, whom I supported at the time, that Google could shift between 2.6 and 10.4 million votes to Hillary Clinton in that election with no one knowing. She won the popular vote by 2.8 million votes. If you take Google out of that election, the popular vote would have been tied,” he added.

In the run-up to the 2020 election, CNBC reported that 88% of all donations from Google employees favored Democrats, with just 12% going to Republican candidates or causes. Amy McGrath, the U.S. Senate candidate who challenged Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) that year, received by far the most contributions from Google of any Senate candidate.
