Anecdote

That's an entirely situational occurrence. You're trying to take a single instance of a registration change resulting in a second ballot and apply it across all instances as though ALL instances of people receiving multiple ballots are the result of registration changes. So, your anecdotal evidence in no way applies to the 2020.
Hym "Hey, name politician who said this: 'We have created the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud operation in the history of the presidency' Who was it? Who said it? Until you explain that, what could you possibly have to say regarding the absurdity of the claim that election fraud occurred? Whas it an accident? Did he MEAN the exact opposite of the thing he said? Why don't you make video about that? Do you have an anecdote to explain that one? Where'd your abortion 'rights' go shit-head? Where'd they go?"
