A six-minute video sums up 2020’s impossible election paradoxes
By Andrea Widburg
Patrick Basham, the founding director of the Democracy Institute, while on the Mark Levin show, gave a remarkably lucid explanation for the peculiarities surrounding the election. He did not focus specifically on the allegations of election fraud. Instead, he explained that traditional markers associated with an incumbent’s almost inevitable victory were all lined up to result in an overwhelming Trump win. That Trump did not, in fact, win simply makes no sense.
Basham first set out his arguments in a November 27 essay at The Spectator, entitled “Reasons why the 2020 presidential election is deeply puzzling: If only cranks find the tabulations strange, put me down as a crank.†One of his main points in that article was that Trump’s standing with various groups improved across the board.
This was especially apparent with Trump’s support among blacks and Hispanics. It rose to highs not seen since Nixon’s win in 1960 (yes, he won but that election also went to a Democrat because of fraud). At the same time, Biden’s standing with those same groups declined. That fact alone should have presaged a Trump victory.
