Yes. I remember that fateful Wednesday.
But seriously I think the mail in ballots are what made up the difference. I did share a post several months ago on how it is to the Republicans benefit to prevent mass mail in voting because many democrats are so lazy, they won’t even go down and physically vote.
I am genuinely curious about the malfunction that some of these voting machines were having. Supposedly they couldn’t handle all the Trump votes, so they just made them Biden votes because Venezuela? I feel like we might be grasping for straws here, but if there is really corruption I want to get to the root of it.

Most of those voting machine conspiracy theories have been debunked. You have to remember that most of the allegations are literally things someone just said on Twitter or some other platform in order to try and undermine the election results. This whole situation makes me embarrassed to be a Republican and honestly has me considering abandoning the party altogether for 2022.
I don’t think the mail in ballot discrepancy was due to laziness. It’s a combo of (I) Democrats tend to take covid more seriously and therefore would rather not go to a crowded polling station (plus, Election Day isn’t a holiday so if you can mail in there’s literally no reason not to if it means you don’t have to take time off work to vote), and (II) Trump telling republicans not to mail in vote.
For example, there were tens of thousands of republicans who voted in the June primary in Georgia via mail who didn’t vote at all in November. If they’d voted, Trump would’ve won the state. Except he spent months over the late summer and fall telling people not to mail in vote, so those people didn’t and probably figured Trump would win GA so they didn’t spend the time to go vote in person. Shot himself in the foot for no reason.
