There's an elaborate, but mostly meaningless "analysis" floating around that purports to "prove" that the 2024 election was stolen. It consists of stats and graphs of supposedly "anomalous" voting patters in a handful of cherry-picked counties.

The graphs are very pretty, but they just aren't evidence of fraud. They're very similar to the supposed "proof" that the 2020 election was stolen.

"Proof" that reenforces what you want to believe has to be approached with extreme caution.
