The New York Times took a poll of the top officials in each of the fifty states to ask if they found any evidence of wide-spread voter fraud or irregularities during last week’s election.  Not one of them reported any such problems.

As the Times reported, “Officials in 45 states responded directly to The Times. For four of the remaining states, The Times spoke to other statewide officials or found public comments from secretaries of state; none reported any major voting issues.”

The last state, Texas, has no statewide official respond to the Times’ inquiry, although the top election official in Harris County, the state’s most populous, told the Times “we had a very seamless election.”

Texas Lt. Governor Republican Dan Patrick did not respond to the Times’ question, but he did offer a $1 million reward, paid for by his campaign funds, to anyone who could prove election fraud.  (The legality of offering campaign funds for such an endeavor is questionable.)

Pennsylvania, the target of accusations from outgoing incumbent Republican Donald Trump and his lawyer, Nosferatu cosplayer Rudy Giuliani, have no seen any evidence of malfeasance, either in independent reviews or in the lawsuits filed by the Trump campaign.

“Many of the claims against the commonwealth have already been dismissed, and repeating these false attacks is reckless,” said Jacklin Rhoads, a spokeswoman for Josh Shapiro, a Democrat who is Pennsylvania’s attorney general. “No active lawsuit even alleges, and no evidence presented so far has shown, widespread problems.”

“Kansas did not experience any widespread, systematic issues with voter fraud, intimidation, irregularities or voting problems,” a spokeswoman for Scott Schwab, the Republican secretary of state in Kansas, said in an email Tuesday. “We are very pleased with how the election has gone up to this point.”
