Correct. For all intents and purposes it’s impossible for all those ballots to be for Slow Joe.

They were not 90/10 either.

If something has a 10% probability (AV for Trump), the probability of it happening twice in a row is 1/100, three times 1/1000, etc. 130,000 times? Pretty low odds. Imagine one black marble with 9 others and picking the black one 130k times in a row

Let’s hope there are still patriots out there.

Can confirm.

There are approximately 10^80 particles in the universe.

10^11000 is 10920 orders of magnitude (factors of ten) greater than 10^80.

How many photons in the universe relative to particles? I know they are created and destroyed all the time

In the present universe, the photon-to-baryon ratio is approximately 10^10, i.e. there are about 10 billion cosmic microwave background photons for every baryonic particle (protons, electrons, etc.).

The creation and annihilation of photons from electron-positron pairs is unimportant relative to the number of CMB photons. In the early universe it is a bit more important, as the temperature of the radiation allows spontaneous electron-positron pair creation at large rates, but it is not a big factor in the present universe.

So all the visible light, IR, x-rays are essentially noise?

Yes. There are about 400 CMB photons per cubic centimeter, much higher than for any other radiation source.
