    nope this sucks the shit. The same thing that makes it hard/impossible to bring voting into the 21st century makes a conspiracy of widescale voter fraud impossible. We have a shit system designed to hinder coordination. Without the conspiracy of widescale voter fraud, we're back where we've always been. Voter fraud is a scattered phenomenon.

    The true explanation is too subversive for conspiracists: the moderate American is actually extraordinarily right wing and these are the EXACT two people they would vote for. They are both popular candidates and you don't need to look for exotic explanations for how they'd both do well in elections.

    The other true explanation is that voter fraud isn't an unseen act. It's invalidating votes if the signature doesn't match the one from four years ago.

    I hate conspiracists in ALL CASES because I have yet to find a case where there isn't more obvious fraud on the surface.
