Some more statistics that have come to light in the aftermath of the 2020 election, and reveal some interesting numbers: (Bold emphasis mine)
"In the 2020 election, 69% of voters nationwide cast their ballot nontraditionally — by mail and/or before Election Day. This is the highest rate of nontraditional voting for a presidential election (Figure 1) since questions regarding voting method have been included in the survey.
By comparison, about 40% of voters cast their ballots by mail and/or prior to Election Day in 2016.
Much of the surge in nontraditional voting was due to an increase in mail-in voting."
New data from the Current Population Survey’s voting supplement examine voting methods in 2020 and changes from 2016 at the national and state levels.

But now there's this:
"More than 20% of voters who used mail-in ballots in 2020 admit they participated in at least one form of election fraud...
“The results of this survey are nothing short of stunning,” said Justin Haskins, director of the Socialism Research Center at the Heartland Institute. “For the past three years, Americans have repeatedly been told that the 2020 election was the most secure in history. But if this poll’s findings are reflective of reality, the exact opposite is true. This conclusion isn’t based on conspiracy theories or suspect evidence, but rather from the responses made directly by the voters themselves."

Earlier NPR among other sources had done the math and came up with this result:
"
...just 44,000 votes in Georgia, Arizona and Wisconsin separated Biden and Trump from a tie in the Electoral College."
So in retrospect after crunching the numbers, was Trump justified in disputing the election results? Would Biden and the Democrats have done likewise if the situation had been reversed?
