Original Note:
Vote count spikes are common & don’t indicate fraud. They’re due to: reporting of vote counting in batches; delays to counting in-person votes; & some states allowing counting of absentee & mail-in ballots before polls close, while others prohibit counting until polls close. https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-wi-pa-mi-vote-spikes-idUSKBN27Q307 https://www.eipartnership.net/blog/potentially-misleading-data-visualizations-lindell
