The left was bitching about electronic voting being hacked (and Dominion in particular) prior to the election. Bernie was likely cheated out of the 2016 nomination by mass voter fraud.
This isn't a left/right thing it's an establishment shutting down anything they feel is a threat to them thing. Rest assured if there was some left wing populist that wanted to nationalize healthcare and downsize the military industrial sector they'd be getting fucked over as well.
However because TDS none of that matters. Even when literal videos are posted of poll watchers being kicked out of counting centers and gov workers papering over windows so no one can see what they're doing, it's all hand waived away by some reference to Politico or the NYT.
What this has confirmed to me is that all that matters now in politics is the raw exercise of power and fairness in the process be damned. However without the loser's consent actually exercising power becomes difficult to impossible. Unless Biden is prepared to bring in no shit totalitarian measures he's likely to get jack shit done over the next 4 years as half the country doesn't just think, but believes in their bones, that he's a demented old puppet that was gifted the Presidency by a corrupt elite through a fraudulent vote.
It's sad there's so many people who are stuck in the mindset of "if the guy I like wins it's fair, if he loses it's fraud".
Here's some complaints about Dominion from 2013:
