Twitter Thread breaking down the “voter fraud” affidavits that Trumpists


are screaming about.

Nothing there.

A lot of the complaints are just dumb (I saw military ballots for Biden, and I know that the military does not support Biden; an ABSENTEE ballot was mailed to a location outside of the jurisdiction)

A lot of the complaints are probably true but irrelevant (the Democratic poll watchers were mean to me; there were armed police there and armed police are intimidating)

The biggest batch seems to be that the Republican poll watchers weren’t given meaningful access. These claims seem kind of silly because their complaints are coming from their experiences as poll watchers. But these claims are also the most dangerous to our democracy as they raise conspiracy thinking. For example, “I was six feet away so I am not 100% sure what was going on, but there looked to be some ballots that were not post-marked but I wasn’t close enough to be sure. But this means they were definitely not post-marked. Fraud!”

The last batch (which seems to be just a few) are more cognizable fraud (like dead son voting). But this should be able to be easily checked and will likely be only a handful of votes.
