The Spin
Establishment-critical narrative
Clear evidence shows Senate results are incorrect with sworn voter affidavits contradicting official counts. Statistical anomalies including impossible voting patterns demand a transparent hand recount to protect constitutional rights. The discovery process will expose systemic election vulnerabilities. Every vote must counted, and no harm can come from due diligence suits to improve the electoral process.
Pro-establishment narrative
Statistical irregularities don't necessarily indicate wrongdoing and could reflect calculation errors or the unique 2024 election cycle. These inconsistencies wouldn't change state outcomes and scrutiny should focus on correcting historical records rather than invalidating elections. What's more, some group members have amplified conspiracies and needlessly sowed doubt in our elections.
