If we agree to flip a coin for $20, and you obstruct my view while you're tossing the coin, you can be sure you're not going to get my $20 no matter what you say afterward, unless you have earned quite a lot of my trust beforehand. Of course if it comes up the right way for me, I will be happy to take your money. Do you think that's unreasonable?

There is far too much opportunity for the election workers to cheat for me to trust them if they aren't closely observed, no matter what they say afterward. That's why observers were put there in the first place.

If the elections workers are not good at cheating, they may leave behind evidence, but a lack of evidence would not be convincing to me, because not all forms of election fraud will necessarily leave behind evidence, and there is too much opportunity for them to get rid of it.

So you think hundreds of thousands of ballots were out of view and somehow swapped with fake ballots giving Biden the win during the counting process. And that this coordinated fraud got past everybody because an election official was watching from too far away, say 20 feet instead of 6 feet. And no hard evidence of this conspiracy anywhere exists, but it totally happened. Is this your position?

I think probably several different kinds of election fraud took place because observers were too far away. If election observers are 6 feet away, they can't read the letters written on a piece of paper, so can't tell if an election worker is, for instance, allowing someone to vote multiple times and crossing off some other name instead, or accepting a ballot with a signature that doesn't match the voter's records. If election observers are 20 feet away, they can't even tell if there's any writing on a piece of paper, so election workers can let through blank mail in envelopes, or switch papers around, or put papers in the wrong box, or pull papers from a box into the wrong stack.

>coordinated fraud

Do you think it's implausible that a group of people that have all been selected at some level by democrat politicians, who have a deep seated hatred of Trump, would have some difficulty coordinating to engage in illegal activity?

>because an election official was watching from too far away

No, election observers were too far away. I do not trust election officials in these controversial areas, because they are, at some level, there because democrat politicians want them to be.

>And no hard evidence of this conspiracy anywhere exists, but it totally happened.

I don't know if it exists at this point. Some forms of election fraud would be very easy to get away with carrying out without any evidence remaining. How would you ever know if an election worker got two mail in envelopes, one obviously fake and the other real but from a part of town that goes heavily republican, took the inner contents of the fake one and put it in the good pile, and took the inner contents of the real one and put it in the bad pile? If an observer couldn't tell it was happening, how could anyone find out after the fact? How hard would it be for a box of invalid election materials to never be found again? Do you think the FBI is rummaging through the garbage of all of these facilities?

>Is this your position?

Allow me to turn it around on you. Is it your position that it would be unjustified for the democrat election officials and workers to cheat to make sure Trump lost, given the list of things they (I assume sincerely) believe about him that I posted above? (Owned by Putin, elected due to russian interference, climate change, women's rights, racial hatred, border separations, voter suppression, undermining democracy, etc etc)

[arolihas]

Yes it would be unjustified. Election officials and workers would not risk their personal livelihood and jail time just to see their candidate maybe win. And if they would I believe they wouldn't have stopped at just the president, but would have given House Democrats more seats. Then again this is all based on your delusional demonization of poll workers and election officials with no basis in reality. It honestly sounds like you've never voted in person or even volunteered to work at a polling center.

Trump cheated in 2016. No one could doubt he would try to cheat in 2020. Why would it be unjustified to cheat to make sure his cheating didn't succeed a second time?

How are these people risking their livelihood any more than any other group engaged in criminal activity, like people cooking the books for banks? Why would they expect the democrat local district or city attorney to come after them? Why would they expect their fellow lifelong committed Democrats to turn on them, ever?

The officials in these cities could only influence the elections for us representatives that represent their congressional district, which are seats that Democrats always win anyway. They could only meaningfully influence Senate races, which many believe they did in at least two states, and gubernatorial or other statewide races, of which there were none this cycle in the 6 contested states.
