        That was the theory behind COVID as well, and while it did happen at a 2:1 ratio, it wasn’t enough to impact the election in any way.

        Edit: I’ll mention it needs to happen in a statistically significant margin, within the swing states exclusively. Diseases and viruses unfortunately don’t operate off electoral maps…If it was just a general vote, it wouldn’t be an issue.

          the covid deaths were too spread out, but it was mostly people staying home and mail-in voting, something the gop now destroying. also they had time to research who trump really is. last election most people who did voted couldnt care less, they were to distracted by other things, or showed extreme apathy towards voting.
