The vaunted, evil, "don't be evil" company takes you to Harris crap when you type in "Where can I vote for Trump", but returns maps of where you can vote when typing "Where can I vote for Harris"?
For those of you still in denial, there is no hope for you.

DuckDuckGo is sucking the corporate tit lately. Brave Search is your friend.
If you know an article exists but just can't find it, run Brave through Tor. You'll find it.

Don’t you know where to vote?
Do you know how to speel your own name?
Count to 20 without taking your shoes off?

Figured you wouldn't get the point low-IQ Harris voter.
I voted over 2 weeks ago.
I never use Google either, but it has been reported that Google was interfering with the election.
True to form, they are.
They also blamed it on a glitch, and it's fixed now. Nope.
And you are voting for this shit.

In what way is Google interfering with the election?

It was just a question. If you don't want to answer, that's ok.

You really don't understand? I guess someone who advocates for disinformation would be actually blind to it.
Google is basically a de facto extension of the government. How would you like it if you called your local government elections board, and when you asked where you can go vote for Trump, they played Beyonce music, and if you asked where to go vote for Harris, they gave you specific instructions where to vote. How would you feel?
Of course that assumes you think Google is not a de facto government extension.
Luckily, wiser people aren't blind to this shit.

How would you feel if you cast your vote & some douche came along & torched your ballot?

It is my understanding that Google is a company, and not a part of government. In that way, it is similar to other companies like Facebook, Fox, Truth Social, and X.
It is also my understanding that companies have certain 1st Amendment rights, such as making campaign donations, making political statements, and supporting candidates.
I'm definitely not an expert in these matters, but I still do not see how Google is interfering with the election.

The irony here is palpable.

For sake of discussion, I'll stipulate that Google is showing bias in favor of Harris in terms of search results.
And?
Does that break a law?
I'm asking, because I truly do not know.

Sorry but no. I'm not interested in your "for sake of argument" hypotheticals. You and I have been doing this far too long and I know how you operate. If you want to go on the record and take an actual position on Google's bias, I'm happy to engage in the rest of the discussion. Let me know.

Not sure what you want me to do, I conceded the factual point.
Even so, I do not know whether that violates any law.

Thanks for the info! Yes, DuckDuckGone has tapped into their inner Google.
