What if there was statistical evidence of probable tampering?
Plus Trump, in his rambling, said something that heavily implies tampering with vote counting machines.
Not to mention Musk's DOGE people publishing their vote generation scrip on Git. You tell it the outcome you want, and it'll make ballots to match.
So I get how this could sound compelling with that framing, but note that:
Like, take a look at the code - it's trivial, in large part because it was made by college students in their early academic career. Creating something of similar caliber would be extremely trivial.
That this student hack project would have been used as a part of a greater scheme of election fraud seems highly unlikely.
It's funny because student hacks are currently being given access to the entire Treasury payment system for the federal government and have leaked classified data about our spying capabilities.
