I'm not an electon-denier, nor an election-denier-denier. But when numbers don't line up with a reasonable explanation we can't have confidence in elections. My first line of suspicion is when a party says, "You can't look and you are suspect for asking". Democrats perform a lot of drama about Democracy but a lot of suspicion about asking basic questions about the security of voting. If Abbot and many Republicans performed normally, why did Democrat votes in a midterm perform so much better than a general election under Biden or Harris or any other midterm? I've seen how Abbott performed better than previous elections but his Democrat opponent got 1.7 million more votes than Harris did. I looked up census data and asked how many people migrated from Liberal states like California to Texas in the last ten years and it was only 1 million people. Assuming 100% voted in the midterms for Abbott's opponent, it still falls short of any explanation I can think of. Maybe some Democrats can explain their reason. Did the party not have a good get-out-the-vote in 2020 and 2024 and suddenly they discovered one? Or maybe a Republican can explain why we thought a cheat happened in 2020 and somehow Democrats where able to create enough fake mail-in ballots or have enough illegals voting to account for 1.7 million votes? Accusations aren't enough without hard evidence, and if 1.7 million people cheated, someone would have a smoking gun. Not a magic "Soros did it!" but real evidence because it would be everywhere. No Democrat can convince me not to look or ask the question but no Republican should be satisfied with an easy accusation. The Arizona audit in 2021 made the most sense because people actually looked at ballots and tried to use forensics to explain something, even if it didn't produce anything reliable. If no explanation is needed, then I hope Republicans implement the same system the Dems did for 2028 and flip New York, California, Washington, Maine and Oregon with 1.7 million "voters" coming from nowhere and no investigation or explanation allowed. If this is how elections are done, then both sides need to be able to do the same thing.
