Reply to comment by ScienceWasLove in Majority of 16k canceled Pa. mail-in ballots were from Dems by TransporterOffline

Who cares about the percentage. The article doesn’t mention percentage but you keep mentioning it. That doesn’t change the actual fact that more Democrats had their mail in ballots discarded. It also doesn’t change the fact that the envelope and date law that the state Supreme Court upheld is straight up voter suppression.

More democrats did because more people voted democratic. Not because they were targeted.

If as many republicans voted, the numbers would be reverse.

Percentage of a whole is important because it allows you to make comparisons.

Make things proportional.

Your missing the important piece which is that more people voted democratic by mail so of course statistically more dems would have their mail in ballots be wrong but ALSO the Supreme Court upholding the stupid law making casting mail in ballots more complicated bc of the date/signature/envelope law is blatant voter suppression bc they know dems are more likely to vote by mail. Either way it didn’t work.

Do you think I am missing those points, I am one of the few people who read the article.
