If it were just a few typos it would be one thing, but for example they are finding vote switching That goes from Trump to a third party and later switched again to Biden.
It is not a smoking gun but it is smoke.
How do you know its Edison? There are many other companies that are better, and one has been doing forensic research on US election fraud for the past 3 elections.
It is worthless to purseu as it has nothing to do with the ballots and counting just a file feed to goofball Edison. They might be jerking the data just to sidetrack real stuff going on.
