The election fraud deniers

 Mark Andrew Dwyer:

What Denying Election Fraud Accomplishes

...

So, on the one hand, there is plenty of evidence strongly suggesting that the widely observed election fraud took place during the 2020 presidential elections. On the other hand, all we have are assurances of the election fraud–deniers that there was no election fraud, which were later changed to admissions that although election fraud did take place, it wasn't large enough to sway the results. No verifiable facts that would clearly invalidate the specific election fraud allegations were presented to the public as of the time of this writing, while quite a lot of obstruction of investigations, like denials to subject the vote-counting software and hardware to examination by independent experts, took place. Some of this obstruction had all the appearances of a cover-up.

Reason 5: The election-fraud denier was concerned that any serious investigation of election fraud might erode public trust in our elections.

While the piece is worth reading in full I wanted to comment on Reason 5.  I think the failure to allow a full investigation of the vote fraud has eroded public trust in the election of Biden much more than allowing the challenges to be heard and prosecuted.  We have half the country who believe the election was stolen and the refusal to hear the evidence of those charges only confirms the feeling that the fix was in for those who do not think Biden is a legitimate winner.
