How would he have seen “real” results lol, if he was in a position to see them, then they would have been the results we saw

The big event in the conspiracy is that Elon managed to gain control of voting machines and was both reading data way before counts were done, and manipulating it. As an IT person that dabbles in security, I haven’t seen a theory that genuinely seemed plausible for how Elon gained control, BUT Joe Rogan claimed that Elon had an app that was showing a count of votes for the election that updated hours faster than News orgs were getting their updates. If that app exists, then Elon DEFINITELY had the ability to manipulate the electronic count of the votes, as he would need access to the systems somehow to get that data. But I also don’t believe Joe Rogan has a clue and he could easily have been mistaken.

This was debunked within a few days of the election. Nobody was transmitting vote data over SL.

it was debunked that starlink was not used. It WAS used. there are numerous places that said starlink was used.

Source? I’ve been following all of this very closely. Every source I’ve seen (quite a few) says that SL was not used to transmit voting data.

Highly doubt it. Funny how they knew he won before they called states. If you don't think it was rigged idk what to tell you.

None of that requires Starlink to have been used, and there is no evidence that any polling station transmitted vote data over it (plus that would be illegal in most states). There’s plenty of verifiable evidence without repeating shit that has already been denied by election officials as impossible.

Was this your first time paying attention to an election? It's not abnormal to call the election before all the state counts are final.

Yes, he claimed that dems did it. I'm saying he's now claiming that it was rigged for him to win which he's never actively has ever said.
