I don't see how ticket splitting is in any way suspicious. People still do it. Ticket splitting exists.
Both the MAGA and resistance crowd have something in common: they can't comprehend ticket splitting. It's not fraudulent.
Some resisters were claiming Kentucky's results were fraudulent because McConnell won counties where there are more registered Democrats than Republicans.
Thousands of registered Democrats vote straight Republican in every election.

In 1988, CBS wrongly called Illinois for Dukakis. Bush ultimately won the state by 2%. (h/t @MikeCarolla )
They called the race for Bush just 10 minutes later.
One of the earliest election night calls. Not even two hours after the first polls closed was Bush declared the winner.

Eight years after Mitt Romney easily carried Georgia's 6th District, Joe Biden flipped it by a decisive 11 point margin. This district based in the northern Atlanta suburbs has transformed from solidly Republican to solidly Democratic in the Trump era.
Here is the full statewide breakdown I calculated for Niles to map.
Fun fact: back when my family was looking at where to move, we almost moved to Alpharetta, Georgia in 2010 rather than North Carolina.

Georgia's 6th District:
2008: 56% McCain, 43% Obama
2012: 61% Romney, 38% Obama
2016: 48% Trump, 47% Clinton
2020: 55% Biden, 44% Trump
Stay tuned for an @NilesGApol map of the full breakdown, maybe tomorrow?

Joe Biden did half a point better than Obama in Oklahoma but the differences in their coalitions is stark. Eastern Oklahoma swung significantly towards Trump while OKC metro and Tulsa swung to Biden. The swing towards Trump in western OK was less pronounced.
Texas County has a growing Hispanic population. Unlike what we saw elsewhere in the country, Biden did better than Obama there.
I forgot to put my handle on this map but too late now

Your occasional reminder that Illinois state law does not require congressional districts to be contiguous.
There is nothing stopping Democrats from adding in random parts of Chicago.
I see you've got a nice downstate district there. Would be a shame if added parts of Chicago to it.
