(2,850 posts)We have had major court cases, such as Kitzmiller vs. Dover area school district dedicated to keeping creationism out of schools. Additionally there are national organizations like the NCSE with this focus. Even beyond that, fighting creationism is a major focus of prominent members of the atheist movement such as Richard Dawkins.
I personally haven't seen as big of a push to discredit election fraud reporting. Fraud tactics that are well documented get national media attention. I heard about the ID laws and the Rick Scott voter purges on Rachel Maddow. By contrast I don't hear much about electronic voter fraud outside of DU, and I think the main reason is that a lot of what is said about electronic voter fraud doesn't stand on very good evidence.
Finally, when you imply that I don't want a transparent electoral system, you are basing it on a non-sequitur. I don't have to let poorly founded arguments in favor of electoral reform slide, in order to be in favor of it. I happen to think that we would advance our cause more effectively by focusing on the places where there are clearly problems i.e. voter suppression, than by going out on a limb and focusing on problems which are poorly demonstrated at best. Advocating for electoral reform on the basis of screwy arguments is also not likely to help us be taken seriously.
