Martin I did read your posts and I cannot help but see it the way I do

Start from your primary premises here that
1) mail in ballots are a guaranteed fiasco===even as they have been allowed for a long long time and even as republicans and democrats alike say the elections were fine...except as you assert in in Philadelphia and Atlanta (where republican officials are on record denying voter fraud occurred)...and whatever other cities you want check you deem corrupt

2) you want a high degree of vigilance in voter identification....even as voter rolls are highly scrutinized on preparation and mail in ballots are individually numbered and controlled...fair enough to ask for a review if there is evidence of voter fraud.... but not as a general fishing expedition based on nothing....which leads to

3) this is a great chance to look at "several corrupt cities" ....conveniently located in states Trump wants to attack for voting against him...even as this was asserted before the election and even as nothing was done before the election to try and investigate and clean things up. ...still it is a fair request to look at this...except I believe it should have been done 4 years ago when Trump et all had the power and inclination to chase down their theories of voter fraud and clean things up.....except no evidence was ever found to act upon

And it is not that I dont want them to. If there is evidence...follow it and penalize if perpetrators are found guilty

I'm happy to leave things in the hands of the courts, happy to see mandated recounts, happy to see if the constitutional challenge in Penna run its course.

But I believe that it is all being driven by Trump's bruised ego, his lies, and the desire of the RNC to undermine the election results and curry favour with Trump and his base.
That is how their your motivation intersects with theirs.

And for the record, I prefer yours. They are at least more pure



If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop
