About Those Bullet Ballots

[Sympthsical]

6. Provide evidence of claims for your question

You want us to answer your question, but you do not want to present us with evidence for the claims.

And "I heard it from a guy on Thom Hartmann" isn't evidence.

One thing this guy has been very shady about is providing data, methodologies, and evidence for assertions he is making. Even when directly asked by knowledgeable data scientists (his Reddit AMA) he bobbed and weaved his way through it. (And if you pay attention to his answers - really pay attention - you rapidly figure out he's cherry-picking as much as humanly possible to make his claims. For example, in his North Carolina claims, he admits he just ignored the governor's race, because he didn't think it should count. Don't all data scientists do that?).

You can't demand answers to a question when your own basis for that question isn't established as a fact. But you're acting as though it is. You've simply accepted the claim prima facie and then demand people refute that which is impossible, because no one can verify it.

Which is what . . . that word you dislike does.

The claim is one he's making (and you're repeating). Show your work.
