AI's quietly reshaping how people vote now.
1 in 4 eligible voters asked a chatbot about candidates before deciding. That's not a side experiment anymore — that's mainstream behavior.
So campaigns adapted. They're now paying consultants $50k/month for "Generative Engine Optimization" — basically seeding Reddit, high-authority sites, anywhere AI scrapes — so when you ask ChatGPT who to vote for, their guy comes up.
The election war moved from TV ads to your prompt window. And most people don't even know it's happening.
