Election concerns?

One I've seen is suggesting that the timing of is may be intentionally aimed at the 2024 Presidential election:

While I'm well aware that one possible crank on -- I'm calling it Twitter for clarity -- doesn't rise to the Wiki's level of Notability. I'm curious whether other eds are seeing any similar rumblings elsewhere? JasCollins (talk) 16:51, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't seen anything about it being intentionally aimed, but this article from Le Monde (in English) does mention the Harris campaign in the headline, although I sadly don't have access to the full article to check. This Politico article also speculates on the possible effects on the election depending on how Biden, Harris and Trump react, and this BBC article also discusses the election impact, while noting that union leader Harold Daggett met with Trump in July.
