You may be able to fool the voters, but not the atmosphere.

Summary

This quote suggests that while it may be possible for someone to deceive or manipulate voters, they cannot deceive the atmosphere or the consequences of their actions.

The atmosphere here can be interpreted metaphorically as the overall environment or the collective conscious awareness of people, which eventually uncovers the truth and holds individuals accountable for their actions.
