>but the footage of the suitcases full of ballots after they cleared out the building

You mean this? https://voat.co/v/news/4145790

All I can see is a very blurry picture of a women carrying something. The chart is also unconvincing, considering that the same chart also shows republicans beating democrats 2:1 in another time interval (near the very left of the chart). All in all, not very convincing.

The Republican Secretary of State and his officials says there’s nothing unusual about the video in question. So, is the presumption now a vast conspiracy involving democrats and republicans to turn the election for Biden?

I don't know, this is the first I'm hearing of it. After reading your comment and looking that up, apparently others are saying all of that is normal.

(Sorry, I didn't mean to make this a political thread.)

They can post it somewhere with standards of evidence if they want to be taken seriously. Why waste time looking into it on the off chance it has more veracity than everything around it?

The logic around these election fraud posts usually goes something like this:

1. something "suspicious" is presented

2. only conclusion must be election fraud, no explanations to the contrary is explored or accepted

3. go to step 1, preferably before the "MSM" debunks the first instance.

You can try this yourself: try to find any election fraud claim from 2+ weeks ago that turned out to be "legit".

A glaringly obvious logic fail is “any apparent fraudulent behaviour must be on behalf of the winner” - er, no - it would be much more likely for the intended benefit of the less ethically sound candidate.

(Which one that would be in this case is an exercise left for the reader)

How can I try it myself? Nobody is giving me access to the information I need to actually draw an informed conclusion.

I found it impossible to verify claims like this: https://twitter.com/DavidShafer/status/1334995992102506498

All that seems reasonable to do is to wait for all court decisions.
