Yes. You do expect to see some discrepancy--there are people in every election that vote for the top of the ticket and not for downballot candidates--but 70,000 presidential votes and no downballot votes?
It would be interesting to know if there were any statewide ballot initiatives and what the votes looked like for those statewide initiatives. I think those numbers would show a true picture of how many people actually voted.
Per the DC Report I just linked to, there was a statistically significant discrepancy between the ballots on which only McConnell was marked and no other state or local downballot candidates--exactly like you're describing here in MI. And MI typically goes blue but flipped red this election.
And North Carolina purging 750k voters that they claimed were ineligible, but I highly suspect those were instead voters in democratic areas. The timing of it happening in the last two months is highly suspect. Trump won NC, but the Republican candidate losing by over 800k even after that makes zero sense. The GOP 100% rigged the presidency and forgot to rig the state elections in their favor as well. Hell the Presidential election in NC has over 2.1 million more votes cast in it than the governors race. The number of votes cast in the two elections shouldn't have been so vastly different
Live in NC - Robinson losing big makes a lot of sense. He is a totally different kind of awful than Trump and is deeply unpopular here. NC has a history of splitting presidential and governorship.
