This article refers to voter confidence in the elections, not the validity some Republican politicians might assert towards an election.
Basically, what this confirms is, that since Republicans won the elections, Republican voters are more confident that the elections were valid. This isn’t because they believe the fact that US elections are extremely secure. It’s because they won, and it’s their natural response, through confirmation bias, to immediately see the fruition of their own desires as “valid”. As such, they then project that sense of validity onto anything that might positively influence their own validation through confirmation bias.

“If I win it’s fair, if I lose it was rigged/unfair/cheated”
The war people will never, nor can they ever admit they’re wrong. Any criticism = “attack on my beliefs”
If their beliefs are stupid you bet I’ll attack them. Free speech is a two way street.
