O'Rourke lost his seat at the 2020 general election.[4] He blamed his defeat on a smear campaign against him, which involved both social media posts and leaflets,[5] and took legal proceedings against Facebook and Twitter seeking to identify the people involved.[6] The orders were granted in late 2020, and Twitter supplied the information sought.[7] However, Facebook claimed to be unable to retrieve the data.[7]
