It’s confusing to hear reporters “You have to have hard evidence before you make accusations” about improprieties in the 2020 election.
That’s untrue. Here are ten relevant points.
1. Accusations are made all the time, spurring investigations that may or may not turn up hard evidence.
2 Evidence doesn’t walk up, knock on your door, and present itself.
3 Those guilty of malfeasance or crimes tend to try to hide their acts.
4. Some evidence can only be gathered if the accusers are granted access to it.
5 Lack of evidence in hand is not proof that no crime occurred.
6 It’s reasonable and important to ask the questions and investigate.
7 Claiming it’s irrational to even ask the question only generates more suspicion.
7 Fraud doesn’t have to be “widespread” to make a difference.
8 Those who claim there was “no fraud” are making that statement without evidence. It’s impossible for anyone to know.
9 Ultimately, if no convincing evidence is presented, no charges will be filed and the question will have been answered.
10 There was a time not long ago when reporters would search for evidence, firsthand, rather than demand someone give it to them.
There’s no dispute there were, at the very least, errors involving many thousands of ballots in the 2020 race.
Considering the facts that have been revealed over the past four years, it would be irrational not to ask questions and suspect that bad actors would continue to do all they can to negatively impact President Trump.
Thorough investigations will flag improprieties, if any occurred, by either side.
It is not wrong for both sides to fight for every legal vote. Allowing the process to be thoroughly fleshed out, will allow for greater confidence in the final result during a very divisive time.

Dead people voting is prima facie evidence of fraud to my mind.

Great piece.
If anyone says we need hard evidence, ask them where’s the hard evidence that we need hard evidence!
the video of the female poll worker with a stack of ballots filling in the oval for biden comes to mind
aren’t the dems the party of “its the seriousness of the allegation”?
The best example of fraud is the Dominion software used in 20+ states that flips votes. Only possible if designed that way. Why else put in that capability unless the intent is fraud?
Good grief.
Her points are justification for asking for an investigation, not claiming fraud.
Good to have Sharryl on our side..... LOL, this is turning into a zombie movie!
It is really upsetting that reporters on tv are stating factually that President Trump is “stating erroneously that there has been election fraud.”
These reporters are not reporting facts as they should be. That really pi$$es me off. They have not investigated. They, in fact, refuse to investigate!
It's impossible to prove a negative hypothesis. It is true that once upon a time journalists looked for evidence instead of demanding someone hand it over to them (only to dismiss it, ignore it, or claim it's anecdotal etc).
Here is some hard evidence of nationwide real-time electronic computer election fraud:

This is a just released interview with detailed articulation and illustrations of documented recent election events of fraud and manipulation. Expect this method to be in operation now in preparation for the GA senatorial runoff election. The fix is ready and waiting.
This is the correct approach, we need more editorials like this.
Trump should only have to provide enough evidence that it is POSSIBLE that multiple ballots were forged, as each of those is an independent crime, in order for any case to go forward with DISCOVERY. That is where his team would get access to the overall bulk of the ballots.
It doesn’t take conclusive evidence for trials to start. Just enough evidence to show probable cause.
Absolutely spot on. We watched for over three years an investigation based on NO evidence and multiple investigations never started with mounds of information.
It was a mere four years ago when the director of the FBI announced the crimes committed by one presidential candidate - that wouldn’t be prosecuted. The rest, as they say, is history.
They’ve gotten away with it again.
I wonder where the Hunter Biden investigations, with mounds of evidence, will go . .. .
Yeah.
Lot of people confusing allegations, evidence and proof.
Even weak evidence deserves investigation.
The shame is that the voting process isn’t transparent enough to make discovery unnecessary!
It’s supposed to be!
yep, no signatures, thousands of ballots left at apartment building for harvest, all corrupt.
They have been running that game for a long time now. They know it is wrong ethically, journalistically and logically but do it anyway. And they apply it only one way - every tiny thing that suits their agenda they trumpet as fact, anything that runs contrary to their narrative is “false / unproven / debunked” or just flat ignored.
Each forged ballot is a crime. It shouldn’t take an outcome-switching level of them to be already known, now, for any trial to begin.
Trump’s team just needs to show enough probable cause to earn the right for all the ballots to inspected, to see how deep the illegal ballots already found run into the whole.
