    Do you have a source? I don’t remember it and I’m not turning much up by searching.

        It looked reasonable on the surface, largely because of the “factual” claims he made. But as soon as you start peeking into the publicly available numbers, it falls apart. He said 11% bullet ballots in NC. It was around 2.2%. That’s the one I verified myself.

        In North Carolina, which saw 11% of votes for Trump cast as bullet votes.

        NC had 5.67m presidential votes. NC had 5.54m gubernatorial votes. A difference of 128k. 128k/5.67m = 2.257%

        I checked a couple other NC races as well. It doesn’t get close. Not to mention places like NYC went more red too. Do we think they cheated in NYC too? Did they cheat literally everywhere?

        Of course the bullet ballot guy makes the claim that the swing states and the surrounding states are different, but they really weren’t. His numbers are just lies.
