29. Here's the thing - I am actually open to believing that the election wasn't 100% fair

The problem is, there have now been at least a half dozen people or groups supposedly presenting their "evidence" and not a single one of them have shown legitimate data that can be checked and verified. It's all pure speculation. It's actually kind of sad that there are people on the "left" making similar arguments about 2024 to what the "right" made and still make about 2020. The idea that ALL Democratic politicians are ignoring supposedly clear evidence of a stolen election is ludicrous. There are thousands of brilliant people working as Democratic politicians and associated with them. If a single one of them found any of these arguments remotely feasible - they would surely speak out about it. The fact they haven't tells you everything you need to know.

Thankfully, the Democrats don't have idiot lawyers like Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell.

So all 88 swing counties going red, and winning all 7 swing states outside the recount margin? questionseverything Jun 2025 #4
The assumptions made to come up with that figure are ridiculous Wiz Imp Jun 2025 #14
Could you give us a couple of specific examples to help us sort this out? Thanks. TheRickles Jun 2025 #15
Unless they show exactly how they calculated that probability-- and all the input data LymphocyteLover Jun 2025 #20
The article at the link describes their calculations: if 88 counties all flipped in one direction TheRickles Jun 2025 #31
You can't just look at those that flipped. Wiz Imp Jun 2025 #37
But why didn't any counties flip in the other direction? That is the key question. TheRickles Jun 2025 #39
Because 90% of counties across the country went more red in 2024 than in 2020 EdmondDantes_ Jun 2025 #46
Thank you for providing an actual answer: 90% of counties went redder. TheRickles Jun 2025 #47
Most areas went more for Trump than in 2020. Wiz Imp Jun 2025 #49
OK thanks. But the 50-50 toss-up is a big assumption for every state LymphocyteLover Jun 2025 #53
