Audits, Recounts, and the Secret Ballot
American Thinker ^ | September 16, AD 2022 | John F Di Leo

The Big Lie.

Just saying these words brings to mind a number of potential meanings, but in today’s America, the most common — and conflicting — uses of the term are the following:

The Left asserts that the very idea that fraud occurred in the 2020 election is a dangerous lie, while the Right insists that claiming the 2020 election was squeaky clean is the dangerous lie.

Which position is correct?

Was there massive fraud in 2020, enough to change not only the presidency, but also countless, (and close) down ballot races, or not?

It’s an important question, and the Left has issued a gag order, as if challenging election results is somehow new and evil. There’s probably never been an election year in which at least some races haven’t been subject to allegations of error or fraud. 2020 is the first time in American history that a conscious movement actually sprang up to silence calls for investigation and election integrity.

“You don’t need to change the way we vote,” they tell us. “If you don’t trust the result, just do a recount. Call for an audit, and discover the truth one way or the other.”

Easy, right?

But it’s not so easy. Here’s why:

If the cheaters win and enact laws making it easier to cheat, only massive turnout greater than than the amount of fraud has a hope of winning.

The article presents many steps that could be taken to reduce voter fraud, but none of these measures are likely to be enacted in blue states. The red states already have measures, like voter ID, but red states aren’t generally the problem.

Additionally, there are many other factors that influence the vote. Mass media, for example, can certainly skew the vote by taking sides—reporting one side in glowing terms while presenting the other side as evil incarnate, like they did Trump.

The fact that they say you can’t question it means they know it was stolen.

Wrong... We'll have no hope of winning. Haven't they already proved that in places like California? They're attempting to make the US into California. I guess they want America to be worse and less free than Canada. And they aren't going to allow any legitimate elections to get in their way.

100% Mail in voting, that plus early and late voting, then of course they can switch votes via the counting machines. We are truly and absolutely in chains in WA. We have all but late voting here. They have been transfering votes from outside the Communist cities, bit by bit outside of say Seattle. They simply do not need such big majorities, so they send votes to suburbs...and the beat(down)goes on.
