Reject the oath-breakers and election-deniers on the ballot tomorrow
The headline makes its lean clear, but the worry behind it deserves a fair hearing. When hundreds of candidates on a single ballot question whether elections can be trusted, that becomes a story about voter confidence as much as any particular race. The repeated findings that the process is fair are worth repeating, because doubt tends to outlast the evidence that answers it.
At the same time, I'd want to know more before lumping every such candidate together. Some people raise legitimate questions about procedure, like how ballots are counted or how districts are drawn, and those deserve straight answers rather than dismissal. The line between honest skepticism and outright denial is real, and it's not always easy to draw from the outside.
What matters most is that voters head to the polls informed and that the people they elect accept the results once the counting is done. That's the basic bargain of a democracy, worth protecting regardless of which side you're on.
