As a general rule, if people are going to say "voter fraud" they should: 1) Specify the specific source of the fraud and how it happened 2) The magnitude of the fraud 3) Explain what races it could have affected Merely identifying surprising, interesting, or unprecedented events is not evidence of fraud.
Replying to @Ike_Saul
no one has 'taken' anything yet. Vote certification is still ahead and DOJ has promised robust non-citizen voting investigations and enforcement using Federal rules and Federal data. teapaw.org/Rasmussen_Poll/status/…

Two APSRs in one month! Surveys say lower-income people favor redistribution more. But what happens when people actually vote on taxing the rich? New @apsrjournal note with Jieun Lee, Grant Baldwin, and Ben Newman, using 73,053 precincts and 8 ballot measures.
From our FirstView: "Economic Self-Interest and Support for Redistribution: New Evidence Using Election Results Data" by Jieun Lee, E. Grant Baldwin, @markarian_g, Benjamin J. Newman. buff.ly/3MP27Bj

I cannot state this with enough emphasis: every single one of us, regardless of our political leanings, owes a great debt of gratitude to our lieutenant governor in Utah, Deirdre Henderson. I am so deeply grateful for her service and her integrity.
It’s Election Day! Make sure to drop off your ballot in a drop box or be in line by 8PM. If you forgot to register to vote, you can still cast a provisional ballot. Find all the information you need at vote.utah.gov Video: @KSL
