If you look up "benford's law election 2020"
You get two "rebuttals" of this claim. They do not refute the idea, rather they just point out inaccuracies.
https://skeptics.stackexchange.com/questions/49782/do-vote-counts-for-joe-biden-in-the-2020-election-violate-benfords-lawThe claim is here that
>the y-axis is on a different scale which invalidates the line. This is something that excel will do by default when you create a graph, so the intention was not to do this as someone claimed.
Also when you look at the commenters graph, you can clearly see that Biden does deviate more from Benford's law than Trum, even on their own graph (of which they don't explain how it was generated).
>the graphs are deliberately constructed to sell a lie.This claim is not supported by what they claim or have posted.
The other comments are valid criticisms about the application of Benford's law, however it is not supposed to be used as a conclusion as to if there is or isn't fraud, more as a basis to begin an investigation or use as supporting evidence with other evidence.
This is the whole point. To do an investigation into the election to find out why there is so much deviation from previous elections and when analysed using a tool such as Benford's law, there seems to be some deviation from the law.
People are missing the point of all of this. If in a democratic country, there is any evidence of election rigging it should be investigated, as either parties in the future will start to take us for fools and get away with it.
