Let me put it this way. Let's say that I have a garage that I keep open. One day I say "My neighbors are stealing from my garage". Now, my garage is vulnerable to theft, this is true. But when the cops show up, the first thing they're going to want to know is what is missing. Where is the evidence that something was stolen? Is there video? What makes me suspect my neighbors?
To make it more "equivalent" let's say you live primarily at your vacation home, and you let your 3 kids each run an e-bay business out of the open garage of your main house in another state. Each of your kids has hundreds of customers in and out of the garage to pick up packages sometimes unmonitored. You also let 2 high school friends use the space for storage and to meet with clients, including walk-ins, for their own businesses in what is at times a very busy garage.
You've never seen your neighbor actually stealing anything. You're not even aware of what's actually supposed to be in the garage at any time. However, you do frequently see your neighbor on your existing security cameras approaching the side of your garage, where you happen to know there's a hole that opens into the inside of the garage but where you can't see the hole or the inside of the garage (your kids and their customers heavily object to a camera inside the garage. Your neighbor walks over upright, and routinely walks back after 5-15 minutes hunched over.
None of the businesses inside can identify anything stolen, but there are frequently comments on their web pages from customers that claim items they ordered were not there when they go to pick them up. Everyone that uses the garage just accepts that sometimes an item is going to missing or be misplaced with that many people in the garage, and just accepts it as a cost of doing business and provides refunds or replacements.
There's never going to be proof in that situation, which has been designed with a massive flaw, that your neighbor is stealing It could be that nothing really was stolen only misplaced or taken by mistake. It could be that stuff was stolen and it was customers or even your kids doing it. It could be that the customers got their products and lied about it to get refunds as well. Or it could be that your neighbor is judicially taking things here or there.
What we know for sure is you created a system where it's not only trivially easy to engage in theft, its virtually impossible to get caught.
What would you think, if you decided to add a camera that did point into the garage and your neighbor got the town to remove the camera by arguing that any the camera position that would show the inside of the garage or the hole directly, was illegally in a space that violated town zoning ordinances. When you tried putting the camera inside, you found that your kids, your friends and occasionally their clients frequently turned it off, blocked it, intentionally or by accident, or even erased the recordings. When you go to have the hole fixed, the neighbor enjoins you from having the work done by proving it will violate town noise and zoning ordinances to fix it. When you hire someone to watch the area, the neighbor enjoins your security guard from staying on the property at night (which is when he makes his trips to the wall) because it violates town ordinances that prevent any commercial activity after dark, including a paid guard patrolling.
When no matter what reasonable plan you have to prevent the hole in the wall from being a point through which theft can occur or to monitor it, there's always a reason that it's completely unacceptable and prevented mostly by the neighbor in question.
How much of this has to occur before you begin to think there's another motive behind your neighbor obstructing every action to fix the flaw? Sure you can't prove it, but you created a system designed with an enormous flaw, have suspicious activity and have an active program by the neighbor to prevent closing the flaw, which you'd be a fool to ignore.
That's how vulnerable voting seems to me.
We have tens of thousands of material polling sites, and millions of points of custody for voting before you even consider how much that has been expanded by the increase in mailed votes. Many of those points of custody are hidden from observation by even those responsible for the election, heck even certain polling places have at times been so overwhelming controlled by one party that there isn't even an observer from the other side.
Every push to change the rules by the DNC is to increase the time involved (meaning a system that relies heavily on volunteer workers becomes even more strained in efforts to provide security and confidence) and to increase the number of points of custody that are unmonitored and to lower any ability to close the flaws inherent in the system. I mean honestly, it's illegal to offer anything of value for a vote, yet it's open "secret" that party operatives provide incentives to get people onto voting buses and get them to vote the way they want. That's literal criminal voting interference and I suspect it moves the needle for no one.
When you consider there are over 600,000 postal employees the overwhelming majority of whom are in the chain of custody of votes often on a completely unmonitored basis, where any one of them can influence the process (and a couple were caught actually doing) by discarding votes, voting votes that weren't picked up, handing them over to other people to vote, post marking them illegally, failing to post mark them legally. Have you ever worked ANYWHERE with more than 20 employees where there wasn't someone that you knew would undermine other employees, sabotage them or otherwise do improper actions or take shortcuts. Have you ever worked someplace where there isn't a camera on the employee fridge and no lunch or snack was ever stolen?
There's no chance at all, that there wasn't fraud involved, the only real argument is the claim that even though we have ZERO ways to accurately determine the fraud rate, it's not "material." What's the basis for that claim? Pretty much just wishing it's true.
We have a vulnerable system. I get pretending its not vulnerable to give the country confidence in it, but that can't last when there are so many attacks on any reasonable attempts to make sure its secure.
