As readers will know, I’ve been avoiding the nitty gritty of state audit fights to concentrate on bigger picture issues that shed light on our rulers’ intentions for our future—if they allow us a future. I try to follow the audit fights, but I just don’t have the time to write about them.
I hope the fraud investigations continue, and efforts are made to reduce the chance of fraud.
How widespread the fraud is worrisome.
It’s good that Trump is continuing to keep a spot light on it.
It’s dismaying how many establishment Republicans continue to claim there was no fraud and that Trump should just move on, and are doing nothing substantive to prevent bit in the future. And what little they are doing is being forced, grudgingly, due to Gop voter anger/disgust.
Virginia the Gop seemed to do a good job on preventing voter fraud in the recent election. They seemed to have dropped the ball in New Jersey.
It’s a good move that Florida created an organization to target voter fraud, I hope other states do the same.
Larry Correia has an excellent piece that explains why so many are silent in public. The threat of professional defenestration is real. How many are willing to risk their job / income, reputation, being banned online, and deal with the abuse?
I've said many times that data is our friend in elections while most are trying to poo-poo the whole thing.
To build a honest system you have to tie voter registration, roles and the EMS into one. No one wants to do that for some weird reason. Just like we want to put fourth incredibly STUPID ideas like watermarks and other mid 19th century tech... No, Blockchain and tokens... Throw the bicycle shedders out of the damn room already!
The number one failure of enterprise data systems isnt the coding, it's the processes of allowing PEOPLE to push buttons. There is your problem with these exploits and "features" they are simple, low brow cheats that make massive numbers change.
I could develop a open source system that was impossible to cheat without easily documented proof in under a year that managed every aspect of voters and elections. I'd also go bankrupt because NO ONE in the positions of purchasing would buy it.
This had been going on for decades now. It's well documented, well published, well reviewed subject matter... Like most things involving government it's a complex and boring so no one cares to manage the details.
Rasmussen has not polled on the issue on how many believe the election was stolen since February:

The belief in election fraud is probably a good stand in:

My guess is Trumps constant drum beat on the issue is changing the Overton window on did election fraud happen.

“Election 2022,” no? (And thanks for the post - encouraging indeed.)
Valentine's AT articles are great, but this one is frustrating because there's so much tease but no specifics.
I'm sure there's a good reason for that, whether it be pending lawsuits or a need to protect strategic investigations, but I'm tired of waiting ...
