New York Time’s writers criticize informed citizen oversight of election integrity

Writers for the New York Times, Alexandra Berzon and Nick Corasaniti, penned an article titled, “Trump’s Allies Ramp Up Campaign Targeting Voter Rolls.” These writers criticized efforts to make sure that the voter lists accurately represent the list of eligible voters, efforts to update voter lists, efforts to purge ineligible voters to include the deceased from voter lists, etc. These writers downplayed these citizens’ concerns.

From The Federalist:

The Times also took umbrage with election integrity activists for raising concerns about suspicious or incorrect addresses on voter registrations. After the 2020 election, Mark Davis, a data expert in Georgia, reported tens of thousands of voters on file who “had filed changes of address to an address in a different county more than 30 days before the election” but still voted in their old county. After the election, Davis noted, “more than a third of those voters” updated their voter registration or driver’s licenses to match their new address, further calling the validity of their votes into question.

But Berzon and Corasaniti didn’t mention Davis’ findings, instead downplaying the concerns of citizens like him by dismissing the address discrepancies on voter rolls as simply “addresses with irregularities, such as missing an apartment number.”

When corporate media outlets treat citizens like conspiracy theorists for being concerned about election integrity, it does the opposite of creating trust in elections. When they shrug off indisputable problems, as the Detroit Free Press did in 2016, because they may not be “sizable enough to affect the outcome,” it leaves voters with less confidence in their electoral process.

It also leaves them wondering — why are the corporate media and their Democrat allies so uncomfortable with citizens who want to make sure their elections are secure?
