Wow, seems like the people who voted for a candidate who said that mail-in voting was a hive of fraud for six months before an election were less likely to vote by mail, leading to a huge number of mail-in ballots being cast for the opposing candidate. Odd.
Like I'm not sure where these people were getting their news, but literally every news paper pointed out that this would happen, and it did.

Odd. That isn't what they are complaining about though e.g There are saying that some areas have very high turnout (over 95%) in specific counties. Even in countries with mandatory voting you don't get past 95% of the population voting. I haven't looked into these claims myself. So I have no idea if they are true.
- disgruntledphd2 6y agoSame day registration appears to account for most of this. Normally the registered voters count is from the start of a month, so same day registration can make the numbers look really weird.
- forest_dweller 6y agoAs I said. I don't know. I am not even an American. However that is one of many things that were quite odd.
