> Nobody has proved that US elections are secure. In Washington State, the elections department as official policy does not verify that registered voters are citizens. A secure system would welcome audits, not prevent them.
Oh my, I really didn’t think that you of all people would start peddling election conspiracy crap.
The claim of “prove there was no election fraud” is trying to prove a negative, which is generally an impossible task. Every lawsuit by the Trump campaign to try and challenge election results was lost, indicating that the courts didn’t see sufficient evidence of voter fraud that Trump and Musk are alleging.
You know, years ago you purposefully pretended to misread some of my comments to make me seem like a nut and kept asserting that I believed in aliens visiting earth (which I don’t, and didn’t at the time either), and I thought that surely it was just a mistake in his end, and that Walter Bright is not lying.
Now I am not so sure, because frankly I really cannot believe that you don’t see how bizarre the claim of “no one has proved that the US elections are secure” actually is.

I agree, you cannot prove a negative. You also cannot prove elections are secure. But you can make an effort to have the elections auditable.

"An official list of citizens to check citizenship status against does not exist. If the required information for voter registration is included – name; address; date of birth; a signature attesting to the truth of the information provided on the application; and an indication in the box confirming the individual is a U.S. citizen – the person must be added to the voter registration file. Modifying state law would require an act of the state legislature, and federal law, an act of Congress. Neither the Secretary of State nor the county auditor has lawmaking authority."

> you purposefully pretended
I don't recall that, and apologize for having come off that way.
