But not really anywhere else?

No other states made changes to adjust for covid? Or they did and it didn't affect their votes in any way? Has anyone even looked at the issue in states other than the ones that eventually mattered let alone analyzed what difference the changes made in terms of vote distribution? That's close to a rhetorical question because the answer is surely no.

The states in which the votes were close may well have been affected by the changes. But other states that made changes were likely similarly affected or unaffected. The only way that your scenario has a chance of being valid is if some genius Democrat either created covid or recognized early on that it was a path to electoral success if one just finagled just the right rules in just the right states just enough and then had the wherewithal to make things play out just as he had planned, to make the public react as it did and the officials in the states react exactly as anticipated. It had to all come together perfectly like a Rube Goldberg machine. Can you imagine how tiny the probability of that would be? Can you imagine some Democrat being that clever and that powerful? Regardless of how much money was involved, you can't buy miracles.

I know you're into conspiracy theories, thus are immune to notions of feasibility and probability. But you said you were taking it as a serious question so I'm responding in kind.

It was a total setup. Had nothing, whatsoever, to do with Covid. There was Zero danger in voting the old fashioned way. And it is how you stole the election. You must know that.

I voted absentee, first time. I rather missed the tradition but no way was I going to my polling place. The risk was not zero. And I would have been quarantined had I gone.

What about the states that also made similar last-minute changes but weren't part of your Filthy Five? Was it just that the Democrats weren't successful?
