Not to mention that any conspiracy would need to involve many local officials who would notice odd results in their area.

For example, my area of New Jersey leans heavily to the democrats and it would be odd if Cittarelli, the republican candidate, wins the governor's race for my town. I might not notice oddities in another location but in my town I would know and start asking questions. There are many people who would see the same and do likewise.

For the 2024 elections it would be hard to cheat the entire election. That might change but right now it's more likely that Trump won because Americans are not paying attention.
