First off I'm very clear I have not in any way endorsed this as hey this is what happened, I just think it's pretty intriguing.
But I would disagree on the polls, there were in fact well accepted polls that had Harris winning right before the election.
The argument is that this down ballot difference happened in 2020 too, people voted Biden and then voted GOP downballot. So that's all that happened here voted Trump and then down ballot voted Dem. The problem with that is the percentage of that is MUCH higher in this election than in 2020.
As I said elsewhere the most likely thing is still people just didn't vote and then later felt bad that Trump won so they claimed they voted and it wasn't counted.
But there's a lot of stuff in here that's intriguing.
I've mentioned it several times in the past I read a book ages ago the plot of which was China trying to rig a US election using a Social media app and a bunch of disinformation. I think that's to an extent what happened in 2016.
