DEBUNKED - PA - trump/GOP legal team claims of vote spike and massive over vote of mail-in ballots

[Roland99]

Mail-in ballots requested WAY over what was returned. Their claims are that less than 2 million were requested. NO idea from where that came from

There were NOT hundreds of thousands of ballots more returned than requested. Not even close! That #electionfraud claim is an easily provable lie!

As for the vote spike, their claim is 570,000 for Biden and 3,200 for trump over about a 90-minute space election night overnight.

Uhhh...nope.

1. BTW, I've been looking for the graphs and docs they used for their claims

Finding nothing. Wonder why


If anyone comes across them, I’d appreciate it

2. Sorry, but I completely don't understand...

Republicans are saying that in PA there was a "spike" of ballots for Biden that came in overnight Nov 3-4. Some "data analyst" said at the Giuliani-led "Hearing" that spikes in whatever record he was waving around were statistically impossible and so the votes had to be fraudulent.

This is nonsense, of course, but do they even have a coherent claim of any sort? I can't find any.
