Here you go, a “real” source. He said there were more bullet ballots than there likely really are, but there’s still a really suspiciously high number of them. How is this not at least worth investigating?

    The key flaw in this idea that fake bullet ballots put Trump over the top ignores the fact that Republicans won House and Senate seats as well.

    If it were bullet ballots, we would have seen split tickets where Trump won but Dems won House and Senate seats at that did NOT happen.

    So, no, this is all specious reasoning from the start.

    Look at the Abortion bill in Arizona:

    https://ballotpedia.org/Arizona_Proposition_139,_Right_to_Abortion_Initiative_(2024)

    Yes - 2,000,287 - 61.61%
    No - 1,246,202 - 38.39%

    3,246,529 votes cast.

    Now look at President:

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_States_presidential_election_in_Arizona

    Republican - Donald Trump - 1,770,242 - 52.2%
    Democratic - Kamala Harris - 1,582,860 - 46.7%
    Green - Jill Stein - 18,319 - 0.5%
    Libertarian - Chase Oliver - 17,898 - 0.5%

    3,389,319 votes cast.

    There were 142,790 more votes cast for President than in the abortion race, but Trump beat Harris by 187,382 votes.

    Even if all 142K overvotes cast in the Presidential race were fake bullet ballots, Trump STILL would have won by 44,592 votes.

      “The election wasn’t stolen! And if it was then it actually didn’t matter and he would’ve won fairly anyway”

      What is your point here? Why are you so intent on making sure nobody discusses the evidence that trump stole the election? And why are you so intent on trying (and failing) to debunk it?

      Also I 1000000 percent trust an expert on voting machines over a mod of a random lemmy community. You’re gonna need more than your opinion on how one state went to debunk all of those bullet ballots my guy

        The point is that the whole notion this guy is putting forward is bullshit and the reason he’s putting it forward is that he’s bad at math.

        Posting on a blog doesn’t make someone an expert on voting machines. This guy is no expert, no mathematician, no ‘cybersecurity’ expert. None of that.
