The whole thing seems kind of fishy to me? But then again, what do I know?

Just a guess, but one party spent its time pointing to fraud in the mail-in voting and disputing the effectiveness of masks and social distancing. The other party made a point of wearing masks, practicing distancing, and encouraging mail-in voting. I haven't looked at the statistics you refer to but I wonder if those differences in the parties match the results that you saw.
