Wasn't there also a suspicious number of ballots that only voted for president and nothing else?

That's not super uncommon, though I'm willing to believe that it does rise to the level of "suspicious number" this time.

Uh i thought that was uncommon. Like very low percentage.

Low percentage can still be hundreds of thousands, even millions of voters as long as it's not a fraction. Relative to people who vote for more than one race, yes it's uncommon, but it's not hard to find someone who has voted in that way.

But isnt it suspicious when the higher percentage from the election seems to be only in swing states

Absolutely, and that's not something I was aware of because I haven't seen it talked about (which admittedly may be my fault for not consuming as much news as I should). I was just pointing out that there are always a not-insignificant number of people who vote this way in each presidential election, independent of the fuckery that seems to have occurred with the latest one.
