The election is a month in the rear-view mirror, but all the votes have yet to be counted, and Democrats are still picking up seats with mysterious improvements in their ballot counts.

It’s a mystery wrapped up in an enigma. 

A sixth grader could get the votes counted in some of these elections in less time than it takes California to tabulate the ballots, and in places like Minnesota we are still finding out about ballots that mysteriously disappeared into trash cans, with the result being that a Democrat flipped a state legislative seat. 

Congressional seats have flipped based on results that took weeks to tabulate, and the popular vote in the presidential election was significantly reduced by a new tranche of ballots just dropped into the count. 

As Scott Adams succinctly put it, the failure to count votes in a timely manner is prima facia evidence that the elections are rigged. Perhaps not proof that would stand up in a court of law, but most third-world countries can count ballots in a day or two, but the wealthiest state in the nation and the 5th-largest economy in the world takes over a month to do the same.

It beggars belief that this isn’t an intentional failure, especially when the results always benefit one party. 

Joseph Stalin famously said that “t’s Not Who Votes That Counts, It’s Who Counts The Votes,” and if the vote counting appears to be so incompetently done and takes unimaginably longer than it should, common sense says that the burden of proof that the election ISN’T rigged falls on the vote counters. 

The idea that the burden of proof falls on the accusers is absurd on its face; confidence in elections is a bedrock principle of any democratic system of government, and the government should go to extraordinary lengths to ensure confidence in the election’s integrity. That is obvious. 

When asked to provide proof of vote fraud, it’s a tell that the person asking is trying to hide something or has been convinced that the default presumption is that the government is a paragon of integrity. Such an argument is laughable. 

Overall, local, state, and federal spending amounts to something like $14 trillion, which is a pretty big prize to win along with an election certificate. If embezzlement is a significant problem in small businesses, imagine the incentives to try to get control of some chunk of $14 trillion.

Americans have a right to demand proof of the integrity of elections, yet Democrats go out of their way to prevent the implementation of the most basic security measures that are standard around the world. Paper ballots, voter ID, full auditability, proof of citizenship, and rapid counting of ballots should be minimum standards, yet Democrats fight like hell to prevent any and all of them. 

That means, in my mind, that they reserve the right to cheat. The cheating may not be enough to swing any but close elections, but close elections are where majorities in Congress and state legislatures are decided.

For instance, that election in Minnesota where the officials literally shredded the ballots has resulted in a 67-67 tie in the Minnesota legislature. If the Republicans won, they would have a 68-66 majority. 

Sure looks fishy to me.
