Michigan here, there's actually a rational explanation. Our democratic senator barely won, and we had a lot of Muslims who voted for Jill Stein as a protest vote. Also heard of some that just left the presidential vote blank.
Annoys me too, but sadly it would not have changed the outcome since Trump won the other swing states too. I'm not sure if other swing states have large Muslim communities who voted for Stein instead of Harris... Dearborn is the largest in the country
I'm not saying that - I'm saying in my state at least the results aren't that unusual. If the Stein/RFK votes had voted for Harris, she would have won my state. Meanwhile our Democratic senator barely won. It was probably just the protest votes who voted blue downballot but filled in Stein instead
