This guy did a thread on why the NYT "Edison" scraped dataset is no good. If you are interested, please read it. We may be barking up the wrong tree here.

If you are interested in checking out what is a bigger / better scraped dataset, check this one out from Decision Desk HQ.

It did it in VA too, which suggests that there could be some artifact it picks up, or indeed that VA was the subject of fraud, though it hasn't been challenged yet.

Check out the Virginia voting by time. It is 100% fake

Trump was leading for a loooong, long time

When he was leading, I checked all the biggest counties that had the most uncounted votes. Almost alll of them voted for Trump in 2016, and that is why I declared Trump to win Virginia.

But by some miracle, Biden ended up winning Virginia. There is 100% some fraud going on in there. Did they use machines, or count by hand?

If no one has counted by hand, how can anyone really know that the Virginia numbers haven't just been made up?

If the data is faulty, why does it produce consistent graphs in every state except fraud states???

It doesn't, I don't think he bothered to check. Here's a quick Tennessee I did, and it looks like Wyoming would produce a similar shape, and that's just from the start of the database.

but who tf is this guy?

Btw, if you mean β€œguy who posted the link,” then...
Seriously. Post history indicates only copy pasta objection to the data source.

Nothing suspicious there. <MassiveEyeRoll>

on why the NYT "Edison" scraped dataset is no good

His main objection: "How the fuck do you have 77 votes 22 minutes before before you can have 11 votes?"

Easy. This is the first couple entries for PA. Election workers screwed something up in their election tabulation / edison upload and reset the system, or the first batch recorded they undid because of some procedure problem. We already know that PA is incompetent at counting/rigging votes.

idk anything about this dataset, but that objection is bunk.
