It’s not just that.

One thing that the Republicans got real good at was piping the idea of election fraud into their base. Part of what they’ve been doing is getting devoted citizens to target individuals they suspect to be democrat friendly and pouring over their registration paperwork. If they find anything amiss they report it which has made it nessisary to show up and defend one’s right to vote to the administrative bodies on a schedule.

It’s meant that relatively small wildcat groups of citizens have managed to target literal tens of thousands of voters in swing states to cause confusion and delegitimize voters based on minute errors.

They find new ways to rig the game because they believe that they are owed this.

Thank you, after 2020 we were all warned Republicans would ramp up efforts to disenfrachise and prevent people from voting in a ton of ways. They screamed interference and they always project. I think Trump was mad that his efforts to cheat in 2020 didn’t work like they did in 2016. I would not be surprised to find out that votes were lost or removed. Florida was reporting 95% like 2 hours after the polls closed? I think the Dems could have tried to contest results in many states, but the amount of time and money required to address everything would be unreasonable and would make them look like they’re just acting like Trump. I think they also wanted to avoid scotus setting some kind of precedent. I’m looking forward to the YouTube video essay in 20 years explaining it all.

Florida has had the fastest counting in the country for years in response to what happened in 2000
