I think if this race gets called for Biden today, which is likely, the Trump campaign should be given every reasonable opportunity to challenge any voting irregularities they can find in the court system, and to prove their case to the American people. 1/
I CAN say that I've spent the entire week running down claims that people have forwarded to me or asked me to look into. I have not yet seen any credible even allegations of fraud that is anything close to widespread enough that it would have changed the outcome in any state. 2/
In fact, the only actual and specific allegation of fraud that I've even seen raised is the Trump campaign's allegation concerning the voters in Nevada. Otherwise, they have complained about the counting process (but admitted they've been allowed to observe). 3/
In the close states, particularly where it's close enough for a recount, they should be given every opportunity to inspect ballots and results and make their case. I think it's important for the health of the country and belief in the process for people to have patience w/that 4/
Thus far, I've just not seen anything that even a little bit checks out. And absolutely nothing from the campaign itself, except the Nevada stuff. But it won't hurt anyone to wait for them to be sure. 5/

After five days spent chasing down every even semi-plausible theory that was given to me by anyone, I view it to be almost certain at this point that what happened on Tuesday (and in the weeks preceding) is that Joe Biden secured enough legal votes to win the Electoral College 1/
I think it's important, for the health of the country and the integrity of the election process, that any credible accusation pertaining to the integrity of the voting process should be pursued to the fullest practical extent. 2/
To the extent that the Trump campaign has concerns about the votes in any particular location, they should be given full access to physically inspect ballots and verify tabulations and the legality of every ballot cast. 3/

I'm trying to limit what I respond to here because, believe it or not, I'm a little busy, but I have a feeling that this video should be addressed. 1/
I knew immediately when I saw this that I was almost certainly looking at someone transferring legal votes from ballots that were damaged or defective (printed wrong or somehow mangled by the machine) to ballots that could be machine fed. 2/
This is a normal thing that happens in every place where ballots are counted by machine and the clue that it's not anything nefarious is that it's obviously being done in a room that is visibly full of people. 3/

The first part of this tweet is absolutely not true, and people should stop repeating it. The uncontested testimony, including of the Trump campaign, is that when the doors were locked and windows covered, the Trump campaign had >100 watchers inside 1/

It turns out that the doors were closed and windows covered for good reason. Even though more than the allotted numbers of observers were inside, people (some not even poll watchers) were trying to barge in and record on phones. 2/
Obviously not a great situation for counters, who are probably volunteers, to be potentially put on social media. When they shut them out so the counters could work, people were crowding around windows trying to film. 3/

Thread re one of the things I keep seeing thrown around as evidence of fraud is the manner in which the media has reported vote totals. The allegation that has raised its head more than any other I've seen concerns massive tranches of votes coming in 100% for Biden. 1/
The most important, number one thing to note about the media's reporting of results is that IT IS NOT RELEVANT AT ALL. The media isn't even getting the figures you've been seeing from official tallies, they get them from private data companies. 2/
These companies are not official and nothing they say counts. They provide a service to media orgs by calling counties and getting totals and inputting them faster than official state websites do... 3/

Am I really seeing this correctly? Nevada gives us nothing for 48 hours and then comes back with less than 30,000 new votes? Surely this is a joke or I'm just adding wrong.
I could have counted this many votes by myself, by hand, in that time.
Last night I was flipping through channels and came across CNN and Wolf Blitzer was saying "no one is criticizing officials in Arizona and Nevada, we want them to take all the time they need to get this right."

This is demonstrably false. Many, many people are complaining.

So it now appears likely that the official tally will have Trump losing Michigan by about 70,000 votes. Here is something to think about if you are concerned that Michigan was stolen. 1/
A banker's box of sealed paper can hold about 5,000 sheets. That's while the pages are unprinted, unfolded, and sealed. If you turn those pages into marked ballots, you're gonna lose space, and if they're folded and placed in envelopes, that's even more space. 2/
But let's set all that aside for a minute and just pretend that these ballots, in whatever form Democrats snuck them inside, could somehow take up no more space apiece than each page inside a sealed ream of paper. 3/
