1/ I've been thinking quite a bit on how Harris had an almost 20% drop in engagement (compared to Biden) during a historic turnout election where Trump basically had the same numbers in 2024 as he did in 2020.

If you are going to cheat, the way to do it is not the tabulators, but in the reporting system. Long time ago I worked as a programmer for an election counting firm. At this firm, the Secretary of State certified the election based solely off the reports generated by our system.

@hasani I’m not ready to entertain speculation about manipulation of results without some sort of strong evidence, but…

…I am •really• curious to know how much of the 2020→2024 drop in D turnout was not enthusiasm drop, but rather voter suppression.

Whole lot of shady voter roll purges happened in the last few weeks.

@inthehands I hear you. The bomb threats didn't help either. I just have a hard time believing that they would stop at suppressing voters where they can do it behind the scenes. That's where hand counts come in.. provisionals, mail in ballots, paper rather than just trusting the number out of a machine
