Though I took a lot of math and even a couple statistics courses, I was unfamiliar with Benford's Law. Even having read it, I'm not clear on why the pattern holds. However, the graphs are interesting and it is funny that every candidate follows the pattern except Joe Biden in certain key locations. Is this just so much cherry picking? Could easily be. Have the Russians turned against Trump and now sided with Biden? Doubtful. An interesting read.
