This study will be a follow-up of a study we conducted before the 2020 presidential elections. In that study, we presented participants with 3 different future scenarios that could happen on election night and a control scenario that could happen in their personal future. These scenarios were followed by a series of questions. The follow-up study will include the same questions as in the previous study but instead of presenting participants with future scenarios, we will present all participants with a short information piece about election results. We aim to compare participants' responses to the same questions and check whether a difference occurred pre- vs post-election.
