Can you point to the part of that article containing evidence of to what degree they affected the election?

The admission by the company executive.

That's interesting. How would he know the degree to which he influenced the election? Believing any claims to somehow fact rather than plain old self-promotion seems rather naive, or am I missing something?

Even if we presume those sentiments are completely sincere and disinterested, I don't know why we should believe he is an authority on US elections whose claims can simply be accepted at face value.

I would tend to agree.

It's often not hard to convince people of something they want to believe.
