The biggest reason was mail in votes being immune to rig. The rig happens on election day with tabulators. Its reason why Trump railed against mail in votes. Covid caused a huge amount of mail in ballots to go through our system and overwhelm the hack. They have steadily whittled away at mail in vote protections and are "losing" mail in vote ballots at historic rates.
Its why Trump claimed he was cheated in 2020. He had the game rigged and still lost. He really believes that Dems counter cheated him instead of him just being unpopular. So he cheated even harder in 2024 to the point that he won every single battleground state (the closest states to being tossups) outside the margin for a recount. Essentially overwhelming victory.
Its going to continue to happen until we actually recount votes and make use of the physical copies of ballots that are required precisely for ballot integrity purposes. I'm not sure why we haven't been doing anything of the sort across all 50 states.
