Analysis: One flaw of a push to uproot voter fraud is there’s not much to uproot
One thing that struck me at the time was the caveat that Trump’s supporters applied to the upcoming contest. Trump would win, they said — unless there was rampant fraud. The Democrats would try to steal the election, I was told, and the Trump supporters were worried about it.It’s not new that people in Pennsylvania would fret about purported voter fraud, certainly, but the uniformity of that response was not surprising at that point simply because of how often Trump himself had elevated it.
Allies of Trump’s have continued to push for election monitoring efforts in the wake of the 2020 vote. The New York Timesover the weekend that a lawyer named Cleta Mitchell was pushing for a national effort to inspect elections broadly, from polling places to election staff.
It’s useful to step back and recognize that I’m simply plucking a silver lining out of this massive storm cloud. That huge energy is focused on doing as much as possible to uncover nonexistent fraud is a problem broadly in that it undermines confidence in elections for no good reason and is a problem specifically because it encumbers the already difficult job of elections administrators.
