I said "almost never happens" Goat. Is it really too much to ask that you actually respond to my actual words -- rather than lopping off ones that you want to ignore? Seriously. I won't do that to you, I promise. But I do ask that you extend me the same courtesy.
So, once again, I never (in this case, I'll use that term) said that anybody claimed it "never happens."
In fact, if you get right down to it, my primary reason for supporting Voter ID laws of some kind is that we shouldn't even have to have these kinds of discussions. Trump may say it happens "millions" of times in one election. Somebody else may say "Nah, it's only a handful." But the best anybody can point back to is data gleaned from a system that really doesn't require much in the way of people proving they are who they say they are (and are eligible to vote, and only vote one time and in one precinct, etc.).
Why in the heck wouldn't we want to take steps to remove all doubt that anybody might have? You may dismiss somebody else's claims and doubts, as is your right. But that doesn't really get us to where we want to be -- which is either that only people on the utter fringe would even have doubts....or that, for those reasonable people who may still have them, we have a sensible mechanism we can point back to that would address and assuage those doubts.
We should all want the losers of elections to be able to accept the results -- or, failing that, at least be able to quickly and convincingly quash their cases for sowing doubts.
