The voting patterns for Joe Biden seem to violate Benfords law, which pertains to the frequency of leading digits in numerical data. This is generally indicative of fraud or tampered data.

Indian woman bad. And also she threw more poor blacks in jail, and used prisoners as slave labor, and she argued that she couldnt release any of them because then she wouldnt have as many slaves to fight fire.

First, using Benford's law to evaluate election results is problematic. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/political-analysis/article/benfords-law-and-the-detection-of-election-fraud/3B1D64E822371C461AF3C61CE91AAF6D

This essay, however, argues that, despite its apparent utility in looking at other phenomena, Benford's Law is problematical at best as a forensic tool when applied to elections. Looking at simulations designed to model both fair and fraudulent contests as well as data drawn from elections we know, on the basis of other investigations, were either permeated by fraud or unlikely to have experienced any measurable malfeasance, we find that conformity with and deviations from Benford's Law follow no pattern. It is not simply that the Law occasionally judges a fraudulent election fair or a fair election fraudulent. Its “success rate” either way is essentially equivalent to a toss of a coin, thereby rendering it problematical at best as a forensic tool and wholly misleading at worst.

Second, the sample sizes listed here hardly satisfy the requirements of the law of large numbers.
