This isn't news, it's a paid press release.
Here's the website for the analysis: https://electiontruthalliance.org/clark-county%2C-nv
That is better to scrutinize than the press release.
They also release a YouTube video and it looks heavily AI generated. The conversation sounds like Google’s podcast AI.
The statistics, graphs, and conclusions don’t make any sense.
I'd also point out this

This could literally be AI fantasy. Shame on whoever created this.
I hit "flag" and I'd suggest everyone else do so as well.
I strongly disagree. It should be examined (their analysis, the artifacts they discovered, and whether or not they are similar to the artifacts that could be created from software similar to the repo that was shared below). It's worth asking this community to examine and discuss it. This is clearly related to the professional interests of this community, and this community is uniquely suited to bring insight to it.
It's an extreme and divisive claim on a pay-for-publish local TV channel website. The details are unpersuasive coincidence and no reliable 3rd party has substantiated the allegations. The originator of the claims is an organization that didn't exist three months ago. These are all reasons to be pretty skeptical before amplifying.

I took a look at their data, then came back to HN to post a gentle debunk-of-sorts. But I couldn't submit my comment because the post had been flagged.
I think it would have been better if you'd left your follow-up comment [1] when flagging. (FWIW I agree with your reasoning.) Flagging without comment was counterproductive, as it spawned a second submission from folks suspicious of why the first one was flagged.
