A logical person would not in the first instance assume a massive nationwide conspiracy involving thousands of people who secretly act in concert in order to commit a fraud. A logical person would first look for a simple explanation to explain personal observations and then move on to more elaborate schemes only when the simple explanations fail.
I too saw long lines to vote at my precinct and I assumed a record turnout based upon those observations. When our Republican Congressman lost, I too sensed that something was fishy given the voter turnout in a traditionally Republican district. The reality, however, according to a Republican poll watcher (who happens to be my neighbor) is that there were a small number of highly motivated voters who couldn't wait to vote who all showed up at the same time first thing in the morning. The line at 6:30 am was much longer then at 8:00 am when I normally vote and so I incorrectly assumed a record turnout based upon my observations. But according to my neighbor the pollwatcher, the lines were significantly shorter than usual as the day dragged on and when the polls closed at 9:00 pm, the number of voters was way down from previous years. A logical person looks for the simple and obvious explanations first before assuming vast left-wing conspiracy that would be nearly impossible to carry out without leaving a trail of objective, uncontroverted evidence.
You have no proof there was NOT widespread voter fraud. Just say you don't know. It is more honest. It is more logical.
I have no proof that Romney doesn't beat his wife either, so that must logically mean that he beats his wife, right?
I am not assuming there was wide spread voter fraud. I am saying the voting numbers released and the MSM storyline don't make sense. Therefore, I have to conclude something is happening that is not explained. Widespread voter fraud is one possible hypothesis. There are precincts showing turnout at around 100% with over 99% of the total vote going for Obama. There are over 7 million “missing” white votes. There were long lines reported all day and waits of over an hour in many polling places but it is claimed that the total votes were less than in 2008.
I do not, therefore, conclude that there is no voter fraud. I conclude something is not true and the widespread voter fraud is a likely explanation. I also say I don't know what the answer is. I just know something isn't right.
