Religious groups, networking (business, phone, family), and cash motivates campaign organizations. That being said, choke points or critically placed party hacks that run election apparatus in these areas cannot be ruled out. In my view anyway.

Trump always confesses his transgressions. Not that long ago he had the head of the World Cup Soccer organization in the Oval Office for a tv interview over the decision (?) to have the next big World Cup in the U.S. About a minute and a few seconds into their talk Trumpy said jokingly (so that no one would believe it) that “…they rigged the election for me…” etc.
It wasn’t picked up mainstream, but it is consistent with his prior remarks about not having to vote again federally , and openly congratulating Musk for his help in swing states because of his computer expertise. It is also known Musk sponsored a hacker contest won by a fellow who devised a way to jigger voting machine stats to alter very marginally the results of presidential choices. That one was hired immediately.
This Magasmash rigged election analysis had its head up its behind by ignoring some obvious bad smells and getting lost in obscure details instead of what Trumpy was openly admitting.
I see it differently from my log cabin here in the frozen North 🇨🇦, where I am next door to the action but not in the thick of it.

He said they rigged the election and I became President. Subtle difference but he did not say the election was rigged in his favor, even though many people interpreted it that way

100% guaranteed win. It's not in his character.

The comments the two of them made in the three days preceding the election will always be in the back of my mind, and frankly, I find it hard to interpret them any other way.

Their commentary came out a week or two ago.
Their info was well documented.............

These two are highly respected journalists, here and in Britain?

Check it out, it's out there on google or you tube somewhere......
