The simplest way to disprove this, if it can be disproved, is to do the equivalent analysis on other voting results over the years. If the general approach finds an unusual pattern in this year’s results, but no such Benford law pattern in “all” the past election results, then that should raise a red flag. If “all” the election results, past and present, show the same Benford law pattern, and we trust these results weren’t monkeyed around with, then there is no evidence. Maybe just use Republican electoral counts, in this case, to do the comparison. For math types, replace “all”, “no”, “unusual” with the more refined stat equivalent. There must be hundreds of thousands of publicly available election results over the centuries that can be used as a control, so to speak.
