So "new stud[ies] appear[] to find a much higher incidence of non-citizen
voting than you've previously seen" and you "look forward" to hearing what
others think of the methodology, and still you allege "outright

Okay. I see. Just trying to keep up.

But if members of the Anti-Fraud Squad have dared dissemble, they had
better discover they are rapidly losing control of conventional wisdom and
the public debate.

Good weekend. Best,

Steve
