Voter Fraud Part I

Share
I haven't posted here in a long time. I've been busy making videos for class and consequently posted videos there instead of writing my thoughts here. To catch up with my thoughts available in videos hosted there, please go to my Youtube channel.

In this current election, for many reasons, I believe the vote to be rife with fraud. This is part 1 of a multiple part series I'll release over the next week or so as I amalgamate my thoughts and the evidence associated therewith. Before we get into the nitty-gritty, let's address my opponents, the nay-Sayers who claim that there is no voter fraud whatsoever. The odds that there is no voter fraud are zero. People cheat at UNO, at Snakes and Ladders, at Chess, and in Casinos. Why would they not cheat in elections, with stakes as high as they are there? I digress. 

Today's post is courtesy of one of these detractors, one of those "true believers" who believes that there is no case whatsoever for voter fraud. I am going to address the Nay Sayers first, with this line of points previously returned to him on Youtube. 

I refuse to accept the premise of your argument that the onus is on me to prove there is corruption, but for the benefit of those who may read my response, I will provide the following: 

1. The onus is on states to prove that the election is legitimate. In 2016, I served as a certified elector. When we turned in machines at the county records department, we certified that the machines were in good working order, delivered directly and not tampered with in any way. To this date to my knowledge, no state has certified its election results, at least not one currently in contestation. Prove me wrong. 

2. The states certify elections. The Associated Press and campaigns do not decide elections. Until and unless the states declare winners, it doesn't matter what your favorite reporter says. Since they are talking, they are at the very least lying to viewers. 

3. In a court of law, which is where this will likely end up, the burden is not to prove something but to create a reasonable doubt. There is plenty of evidence available to create reason to doubt the election is legitimate, but you have decided to simply dismiss, discount, ignore it and discredit any who proffer any evidence. 

4. You are already convinced that you are right. When they choose jurors in a trial, they specifically look for individuals who do not already have a conviction with respect to the matter at hand, people who will look at all of the evidence critically as presented and weigh the facts accordingly. You are already decidedly in the tank for your side. You would be eliminated from the jury selection for your obvious bias as evident in your profane ramblings. 

5. Your counterblast is wrought with duplicity. Did you demand proof that Kavanaugh was a sexual predator? Did you demand proof that the officers killed George Floyd without provocation or cause? Unless you can prove that you were skeptical of those and also demanded proof, you are not a principled person. You are a partisan. 

6. It is common human action to lionize your side and paint all others in caricature. This is intended to breed fidelity with close associates, but politics amplifies the wicked aspects of this tendency, amplifies the bias and makes villains of saints. Are you the kind of person who can think critically about your own side or do you strain at gnats from the GOP and swallow camels from the Dems? 

7. Truth is not in you unless you first admit you might be wrong. You are not open minded. You are unwilling to admit you might be wrong. I suspect that little short of a divine manifestation, you would simply dismiss any information I presented or result to ad hominem, as previously demonstrated in your profanity. Even if God himself appeared and declared the election a fraud, you would claim that any who believed that suffered the effects of a deranged mind. 

8. I will waste no more time on this, but I will post it elsewhere, because this is the rational argument you claim you want to foster. 

In subsequent posts, I will address the notion of fraud generally and then provide a list of evidence and scurrilous activity that evinces a closer look is necessary, even if it does not change the results. My contestation with the results of the 2020 election extends beyond the presidency. it's about the veracity of the vote and the value of your individual voice. If the election is won by a cheater, those who should have won have been essentially disenfranchised and their votes do not count, no matter what the candidates say. Any serious candidate therefore who truly cares about the people would want to look into it, because any serious representative cares about the people they are elected to represent, but more on that later.
