Which contention ? If you think things haven't changed since the 1960s, can you explain why Texas counties (for example) used to declare over 99% of their votes for one candidate? That simply doesn't happen today. If you are talking about voting fraud, can you give me a single example of a prosecution for voting fraud in either of the last two presidential elections ? In this case, I do think that absence of evidence is evidence of absence. As for vote suppression, what I fear is the blanket disqualification of hundreds of thousands of recently registered voters. It may not happen, but I will be watching closely. Please note that I have no problems with scrutiny per se.
