I am more of the opinion that Stephen Spoonamore has, that fElon managed to hack the tabulators (using StarLink) using the illegal payments to voters in PA to get their information. He's on Substack, there is also a subreddit somewhere run by statisticians but yes there are way too many racists..
There are many factors that were part of the loss but the foundation I believe was misogyny and racism.

We know where maga stand. No surprises there. I believe many liberals voted up and down democrats for congress but president was their red line. They won’t admit it though.
It's extremely simple they lost the election due to misogyny. Period. 2 female candidates lost to the worst of human kind in trump and only the white guy beat him. That's it plain and simple.
It was the specifically anti-Black racism first. Stats don't like. But hatred of women is definitely up there too. Like adding oxygen to a hydrogen fire.
I read it somewhere else recently that the first, and now this term of Trump was "Obama's fault"...it basically "woke" up a racist, non-voting, right-wing population into not having that again. Combine that with Dem complacency and you get this. Biden was an outlier with Covid going on. 😬
Best selling author of Black AF History: the un-Whitewashed story of America! Read this or listen to this book immediately. Do not wait. And find out what you don’t know.
Thank you 👏🏿.

obviously liked what the felon and black nazi were preaching. Black nazi nearly had as many votes as
VP Kamala Harris.
My view from people I’ve interacted with or observed in my work, personal life & while travelling led me long ago to the conclusion that Trumpism is an illness that has infected the populace across all categories, encountering no barriers be they race, ethnicity, gender, native born or immigrant.
Insightful article. I had just watched the Abby Philips’ CNN episode where you participated. You made some important points so I then wanted to read your post-election thoughts. Thanks
Still stings, I never got over Hillary loosing. I truly thought at my age I am 72 I would be able to see the first woman president. I still believe in my heart of hearts she won. She will always be a winner to me and my family.
If miracles do exist they will find fraud and she really did win.
This is an excellent read! The blame game since the election's really irked me. Whatever happened here was very much a nationwide issue, or perhaps even a human one. White supremacy is indeed a big part. I wonder if our culture of overwork is also a factor: people too busy to listen, think, or care.
So glad to see you on bluesky! On Xwitter I would go a week or three with no MH and wonder if you had quit or been banned. The I would un-followed then followed and for a few days I'd see your threads again. They were hiding you from me. Hopefully that garbage won't happen here.

My idea was more to inform Michal that Grio might have some geolocation issue (if not intentional)

America needs to deal with its history of slavery before anything can change.
