The Spin

Democratic narrative

Although it doesn't appear anything nefarious took place with the online voting system, after Montana's Secretary of State was sued in order to repeal a series of voting reform laws that the courts ruled interfere with "fundamental" voting rights, it's understandable that Democrats are suspicious and desire to scrutinize this incident.

Republican narrative

There are bigger issues in the Montana election than a brief glitch with the online ballots. It seems Tester-aligned groups are bribing college athletes to record videos in support of the senator. Democrats may want to snuff out shady business originating on their own side before throwing out accusations of anti-Harris activity.
