(77 posts)If not, how do you know there is no merit to these allegations? And where is the harm to people following this through?

(304 posts)That he's just seamlessly moved on isn't a good look. He should have at least attempted to explain that little problem.

(77 posts)They would need that to prove or disprove the suspicion about the irregularities. Along with the proven interference in 2016, the bomb threats, Trump and Musks bizarre behavior and threats, it is worthy of investigation. If we dont have secure elections, we have nothing.
I dont care if you dont believe it happened, but there is much to recommend an investigation.

(44,961 posts)Those letters made a big deal about purportedly fabricated "bullet ballots". A number of us repeatedly pointed out that his claims made no sense and were essentially plucked from thin air. We were met with push back from folks saying we couldn't know that and only a recount would show whether we were right or he was.
Well, this is what he has to say about "bullet ballots" now: "it appears something other than Bullet Ballots is at play. Drop that line of thinking. "
Having been so completely off base with his "bullet ballots" theory, why should be believe there is any merit anything else he has to say. For example, he still says that his concerns about "undervotes" still remains. But his now discarded bullet ballot theory was his undervote theory and even in this most recent posting, he offers no further explanation of --or even any further reference to -- the supposed "undervote" issue
