The New York Times Called Election Officers In Every State: No Evidence of Fraud

Election officials in dozens of states representing both political parties said that there was no evidence that fraud or other irregularities played a role in the outcome of the presidential race, amounting to a forceful rebuke of President Trump’s portrait of a fraudulent election.

Over the last several days, the president, members of his administration, congressional Republicans and right wing allies have put forth the false claim that the election was stolen from Mr. Trump and have refused to accept results that showed Joseph R. Biden Jr. as the winner.

NYTs: “ Hey, did you screw up at your one job?”

Election officials: “Why, no. We didn’t screw up. I wasn’t there. You didn’t see anything. Nobody can pin this on me.”

Reporting news or creating news?

I talked to dozens of incarcerated individuals and every one of those said he didn’t do nothing.

I guess they were all innocent.

[rktman]

“Nope. No fraud here.”

[existentially_kuffer]

This claim about election nonfraud is disputed

[Yo-Yo]

[The Antiyuppie]

Well, that’s it, then.

What exactly would be considered PROOF of voter fraud?

[FlipWilson]

Cool, thanks for that NYT. I feel better already. Can you give me the names and numbers of everyone that you called? I’d love to hear it straight from them. I’ll wait.

[rightwingcrazy]

“played a role in the outcome”

Weasel words. There is no way any election officer could know that for sure. Did they examine each ballot?

[Pontiac]

Maybe better questions to ask would be

‘Do you suspect that voter fraud occurred’?

‘Have you seen anything that makes you suspect voter fraud’?

‘What would you consider to be evidence of voter fraud’?

LOL.

Farmer to wolf:. Did you eat those chickens?

Oh my, kind of like a teacher going into the smoking area of a high school and asking about any wrongdoing, lol.

[BuffaloJack]

Does any criminal ever admit their crime?

[RightGeek]

Lol

Says the New York Times . . .

Res ipsa loquitur.

First, as is obvious, asking the question is pointless.

Second, I’d bet the NYTimes lied about calling all 50 states.

[freeandfreezing]

What a ridiculous poll. Does anyone really believe than an election official from a state where it has already been shown that a dead person voted would sit under oath and say "there was no election fraud in my state". Of course not.

But the NY Times probably asked some broad questions like "Do you have faith in the historic election process in your state?" and the politicians said "Yes".

More fake news and propaganda.
