Clarification:

No, of course I don't trust a stupid screenshot from 4chan. The thing I wanted to tell you is that this fucking shit is making the rounds in twitter, so a lot of furious psychos are legit thinking they were cheated.

    Poll workers report numbers from tally spreadsheets to the news media. Sometimes there's a delay in between different candidates' tallies being reported, and the website refreshes faster than the data can be reported to the goons doing manual data entry. Early votes for Biden got counted in one lump sum, but the early votes for Trump from that batch hadn't been reported yet because again, manual process involving a lot of Excel sheets and phone calls. CHUD sees the vote totals during one of these "lag" periods while shit is still being entered for Trump. Antics ensue.

      I used to work at a call center and those manual data entry shifts we had to do when elections came around were by far the most soul crushing shit at that place
