The Guardian has a story detailing the firing of Christopher Krebs, who served as the director of the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (Cisa)
President Trump made the announcement on Twitter on Tuesday, saying Krebs "has been terminated" and that his recent statement defending the security of the election was "highly inaccurate".
CISA last week released a statement refuting claims of widespread voter fraud. "The November 3rd election was the most secure in American history," the statement read. "There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised."
Krebs, is a former Microsoft executive, and was appointed by President Trump after allegations of Russian interference with the 2016 election.

Where do you stop? Do you make it suddenly now there were folks who voted all republican on local politics/issues, but Biden/Democrat federally? That'd look even more suspicious. But if you start changing entire tickets then you're going to leave *huge* glaring statistical abnormalities. By contrast here they can try to claim there just a whole bunch of anti-Trump republicans which is 100% contradicted by polling, but it's a datum that's less optically absurd.
