In Wisconsin one can vote by party, so all Republican or all Democrat, and skip having to fill in the bubble for each candidate. The higher the percentage of votes in a precent voting all-Republican the lower the Trump vote percentage among non-partisan voters. The correlation is linear and with a linear relationship that is same for different counties. There is no good explanation for this naturally occurring, this strongly appears artificial.
Not only is it linear; it also appears to only "turn on" once the percentage of straight-party Republican voting hits 20%. The logic there may have been that in precincts that are already voting overwhelmingly Democrat, there weren't enough Trump votes to steal to make it worth the risk of detection. And conversely, that the more heavily a precinct was voting Trump, the more Trump votes (in percentage terms) they could safely steal without arousing suspicion.
I was thinking this too at first, but this is looking at percentiles of “non-partisan” voters. I don’t see why there would be such a linear correlation on percentage of non-partisan voters.
Sure, I think the basis of your claim is absolutely valid but that should manifest simply as a random rate of non-partisans voting less for Trump. We don’t see this though, we see a very clear linear correlation (with added randomness so it wouldn’t be super obvious) that non-partisan voters voted against Trump. This shouldn’t be conflated with voting straight-Democrat.

Thanks pede!
You're great
Except Trump's base is overwhelmingly those people, and the Republicans who don't like him are the milquetoast faggots living in blue areas.

The never Trumper Republican is more media myth than reality. I’m sure some exist but IRL they are not so common.
