Edit: it seems an awful like parent can’t concede that fraud was not even alleged in the majority of Trump cases, and in nearly every case where it was originally alleged, the Trump team dropped the case.

How about you focus instead on securing the roster and less about widespread fraud. The system is built to be anonymous so finding evidence is not possible. The problem instead is people being on the roster when they shouldn’t. I know of 2 cases of this, one of which was in my immediate. Both instances an individual received a ballot but should not have. One of the individuals was not even a US citizen, yet they were registered to vote. Dems didn’t want voter IDs, don’t want voter reform because of “disenfranchisement”.

The system is absolutely not built to be anonymous, this is a blatant lie.

Did any ineligible voter cast a vote in your anecdotes? No? Hmm.

You need to re-up your knowledge on voting. Why is a voters name not on the ballot? Why is there an envelope? The system most definitely is anonymous.

That is a secret ballot, not an anonymous ballot. The principle of one person, one vote is maintained by ensuring that each person — not anonymous — can cast one and only one vote, a secret vote, and that persons not eligible to vote — again, not anonymous — can cast none.

Once the ballot is open is anonymous.

It’s interesting that you were adamant about fraud not happening, yet didn’t know the actual argument. Further not knowing our elections are anonymous shows that you’re just arguing a point you don’t know. This is what I meant by the left not listening. The assumption is the right is “uneducated” yet here we are explaining what the real problem is while reeducating you.

it’s interesting that Quora is your premiere go-to source here.

You raised a question about the rosters which are by definition not anonymous, being a list of names. To show fraud you would need to show evidence that someone cast a vote while not on the roster or incorrectly on the roster.

The registration, chain of custody and observer rules prevent this from happening at a large scale.
