Correct? He would have—Harris would have—gotten 3,565,000 more votes. That's a pretty exact calculation. Greg: There you go. And she would have won both the Electoral College by 386 votes and the popular vote by well over a million. Okay, so number one. Thom: And number two, what brought this about was not Elon Musk tinkering with voting machines in Pennsylvania. Although, frankly, in my mind, the jury's still out on that because Trump is bragging about it. Greg: Like I said, I think he's trolling us. But what brought this about is something the Republicans have been doing since the 1960s when William Rehnquist helped organize and worked in Operation Eagle Eye. Big, burly lawyers like Rehnquist would stand outside Black, Hispanic, and Native American voting places, loudly and threateningly challenging the voting rights of people standing in line. This goes back a long way. Thom: And you point out it goes back to Jim Crow. It goes back to the 1870s, really. So, if you could recap, let’s just go through as much as we can of the specific techniques Republicans are using in various states to suppress voters, particularly voters of color, who tend to be more Democratic voters, or students, or older people, who are more likely Democratic voters because of Social Security. Greg: Yes, well, the big one is, according to U.S. government figures—this isn’t Greg Palast's numbers—4.776 million people were purged from the voter rolls. Overwhelmingly, these are Democratic demographics: voters of color, young people, and poor people. A third of a million voters were challenged. This is brand new—this vigilante challenge business—bringing back the 1946 Klan Challenge Plan. For example, I can say, "Greg Palast, don’t let Thom Artman vote." You lose your vote. 2.1 million mail-in ballots were tossed out. And the chance your ballot will be tossed out is 400% higher if you’re Black than if you’re white. The chance your ballot will be rejected for a technical reason is 900% higher if you’re Black than if you’re white. These are government figures, not mine. I’m a statistician, but I use government data. Provisional ballots? People are shunted to provisional ballots—1.2 million of them—and 43%, almost half, are rejected. The chance you’ll be shunted to a provisional ballot is 300% higher if you’re a voter of color than if you’re white. These are massive attacks on voters. The Republicans figured this out. They went after the mail-in ballot. In Texas, during COVID, they were going to mail out 2 million ballots to voters in Houston, which has the largest Black voter population in America. The Republican attorney general said that if he hadn’t stopped the mail-in balloting in Texas, Trump would have lost Texas. That’s Texas, okay? They know what they’re doing. This was very much a Jim Crow election with new techniques. The Brennan Center identified 30 states that passed new laws making it harder for voters of color, young people, or others to vote, register, or stay on the rolls. This is what’s happening in America, and it’s rarely covered. NPR calculated that one in seven mail-in ballots were rejected. But they never say—and this is what I’m doing—they never say, "What is the effect of this after the election? Did these laws in 30 states, the 4.7 million voters purged, change the outcome?" The answer is overwhelmingly, unquestionably, measurably yes. That’s why I measured it.
