I believe that tedd cruz along with mitch mconnell and lindsey graham all cheated in their last win. All three were in what look like tight races but all three ended up winning by big-ish margins given the polling. I have no evidence other than a feeling but I just can't shake that feeling is somehow not completely wrong.

If any of my completely unfounded conspiracy is right then Allred ain't going to win .

As someone from Kentucky, I could've sworn that I saw reports coming out that the margin McConnell was winning by in some rural counties was higher than the ratio of registered Republicans to Democrats. Implying that a large swath of rural democrats were voting for McConnell. Now, I don't claim to know every democrat in the state. However, every democrat I met hates the guy and a lot of republicans hold their nose voting for him.
Also as quickly as I saw those reports, they vanished. Myriad of reasons to explain things, but sure seems odd, right?

I mean, I'm not saying it's not possible, but it seems like this could happen by Democrats not turning out to vote as much as their Republican counterparts in those areas.
Okay, I'm glad you said you saw reports about that too. It's where my conspiracy theory started, but then there hasn't been anything since so I genuinely gas lighted myself.
Hell it could be that there wasn't anything there to report on, but it did disappear quickly and quietly.
Well it's not legally considered cheating if it's gerrymandering.
Gerrymandering does not affect state wide elections.
It does when it depresses the turnout of people who think their votes won't do shit.
It also enables fucking around with poll sites, like closing most of the drive-through poll sites in the most populated county in Texas right in the middle of a pandemic.
Believe it or not, McConnell is elected by popular vote in the state. Crazy, right?
Repubs and ES&S machines. They are committing election fraud. Lindsey committed election fraud calling Georgia, that one is public knowledge. There's no way that's the extent of what they're doing.
