Now you are arguing epistemology. In some sense, we don't actually know anything. But then you get into discussions of fake cows and real cows and fake barns and real barns and it is endless tail chasing. Cat and dogs love to do that, but I just don't have the time. The facts are we have not found and proof that it occurs. We have spent gobs of money and spent a lot of time trying to find any. We haven't. At least more than a handful over decades and many election cycles. The Republicans in Texas released, with great fanfare, a list of 95000 that they claimed voted illegally over a couple of decades. Turns out that everyone that actually got checked had become legal over the years and before they registered to vote. Again, the fact that you can imagine it is happening doesn't mean that it must be true. This one has been studied enough that it is incumbent on those who claim it is happening to come up with some proof. Making shit up isn't proof. You are claiming it is happening. Fine. Show us some proof.
