In a recent thread I looked at Kentucky's election results, South Carolina's results & a takeaway from Georgia (see link at end)

In putting together the thread I was surrounded by spreadsheets & some data should've made it in but didn't.

To further clarify here's an update👇
I mentioned Lindsey Graham doubling his 2014 votes from 2020 but I didn't explain that I wasn't simply considering his results alone. I was comparing the % that Lindsey increased his votes vs OTHER incumbent GOP Senators who also ran in both 2014 & 2020.

Here's the data👇
As you can see Lindsey increased the % of votes he received by 103%
I found it surprising considering

Mitch had a resounding win but only increased the % of votes he received by 53%

And Susan Collins only increased her votes by 1%🤔

Not to mention, Texas had an 108% increase🤯
All of the numbers came directly from each state's election sites.

My previous thread also highlights various other data points but I wanted to clarify & provide context for this one point.

When I dug into Mitch McConnell’s election results so many people said

“Now do Lindsey Graham”

I get it.
Lindsey got 672,941 votes in 2014.
In 2020 he DOUBLED his votes to 1,369,137.
Really😳

So I wanted to share more questions on Kentucky & some from South Carolina

THREAD👇
I initially was able to spot patterns in Kentucky since counties used different voting systems & results were inconsistent. Counties with unusual big wins for Mitch all used ES&S voting machines

But it’s harder to detect patterns in South Carolina since they use ES&S state-wide.
Recently while revisiting Kentucky’s data it led me down a path to South Carolina.

First I saw:
👉2,134,996 Kentuckians voted for the President
and
👉2,134,446 voted for the Senate
A difference of exactly 550?
That number felt tiny🤔

So then I reviewed Kentucky’s historic data.

If Vladimir Putin had me locked in a room & was pointing a gun at me forcing me to drink a poisoned tea guaranteeing a long slow painful death & Marco Rubio came upon us...

I’m pretty sure Rubio would lecture me about how big of a threat China is and read me a Bible verse.
If Vladimir Putin had me locked in a room & was pointing a gun at me forcing me to drink a poisoned tea guaranteeing a long slow painful death & Ted Cruz came upon us...

I’m pretty sure Cruz would finish his call with his wife so they could finalize their Ritz Carlton booking.
If Vladimir Putin had me locked in a room & was pointing a gun at me forcing me to drink a poisoned tea guaranteeing a long slow painful death & Josh Hawley came upon us...

I’m pretty sure Hawley would keep walking but he might come over to fist bump Putin before continuing on.

While Ted Cruz incites sedition over election results in swing states Trump lost, Cruz's own state of Texas doesn't pass a smell test.

Do we just accept their election results without question?

A TX county who's actually SUING Trump also voted for him for the 1st time ever?🤔👇
Zapata County TX is 95% Hispanic/Latino

In Feb 2020 County Commissioners voted 5-0 to deny entry to US Customs & Border Protection

Then the County actually SUED Trumps WH claiming the building of the wall was a racist assault on residents

But Trump had a record breaking win?🤔
Since 1920 Zapata County hadn't voted for a Republican President
In 2016 Clinton trounced Trump winning 2-1
Yet in 2020 Trump flipped a 33-pt loss
into a 5-pt win?

We should accept this without question?

Especially considering that in 2020 Dems won EVERY OTHER RACE in Zapata

There's evidence the Capitol insurrection was organized & staged but was it planned since the election or does it go back further?

Trumps tweets from as far back as 2012 & Roger Stone's 2016 comments seem eerily familiar to the Capitol events.

How long were they planning this😳
In 2016 Roger Stone warned if Hillary was elected then at the inauguration we'd see

“civil disobedience, not violence, but it will be a bloodbath. The govt will be shut down if they attempt to steal this & swear Hillary in. No, we will not stand for it.”

In 2012, after Obama was declared the winner Trump tweeted

"We can't let this happen. We should march on Washington & stop this travesty. Our nation is totally divided! Lets fight like hell & stop this great and disgusting injustice!...revolution!"

How long did they plan this?

I've been working with DCReport, looking at the election results of #MoscowMitch and the vendors responsible for counting the votes for McConnell & some of his buddies who also had surprising wins👇

There's more coming that I'll pin here...so stay tuned

While Trump our very own 'Mr. Projector & Distractor In-Chief' points 'over there' at another voting machine vendor I worked with @DCReportMedia to look at the largest voting machine vendor who's counting America's votes.

What I found was concerning👇

dcreport.org/2020/12/31/ess…
Ted Cruz refused to certify Trumps loss saying we must investigate election results due to "violations & lax enforcement of election law" What about TEXAS!

My latest DCReport piece looks at how Texas ignored experts sounding election cybersecurity alarms

On my continuing quest to understand how Mitch McConnell, who had an approval rating of 18%, managed to win reelection by 57%, I dug even deeper🤔

The deeper I dig, the more I find the numbers out of Kentucky hard to swallow🙄

Here's a follow up on Kentucky's election results👇
My previous thread noted how many Kentucky Dems voted Republican. Folks said "This is just Kentucky voters"

But if Kentucky voters typically cross party lines it also provides cover to easily hide vote flipping. And HUGE numbers of Dems voted Republican.

Take Breathitt County👇
In Breathitt Mitch got 234% more votes than they had registered Republicans
Amys votes only represent 17% of registered Dems

They'll still say "Its just Kentucky. Look at voting history"

Well, HISTORY shows 2 counties who NEVER before voted for Mitch gave him BIG wins in 2020👇
