In 1992 I would have trusted people also. Not so much today

There is that, but I don't see that any state run verification of my vote will mean anything if the people doing it cannot be trusted in the first place.

There’s no proof that they can’t be trusted. Isn’t a core value of American society “innocent until proven guilty”? What Election Director in Pennsylvania was charged with tampering or a similar crime since the new voting systems that the Trump Admin demanded were put in place?

I agree. But why then are all the people questioning the validity of the election trumpsters?

Cognitive dissonance. They’re being confronted with the fact that the majority of Americans did not think Trump was the greatest President ever and he- their idol- is telling them repeatedly that there was fraud. They’re being lead to believe that something they wanted was being taken away from them - and that message is repeated with every agenda item. Immigrants are taking your jobs. The Woke Agenda is taking your children. Big Toilet Paper caused the pandemic.

They’re eating a steady diet of anger, fear and outrage.
