We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

Name a single example.
I literally googled "Voter fraud does not exist"
First result was pbs news hour.

Heres wapo.

The line between the lines is "its real, but the news pretends its absurd when the right says its real."
That one straight up says it did exist, but not enough to sway results.
"they found fewer than 475 potential instances out of more than 25 million votes cast, a number that would not have come close to changing the outcome."
They say the same thing:
"But an Associated Press review of every potential case of voter fraud in six battleground states found fewer than 475 out of more than 25 million votes cast in those states"
And same goes for Reuters:
"For example, after the 2020 election, a months’-long analysis by the AP found fewer than 475 cases of potential voter fraud in the six battleground states challenged by Trump"
That's not even remotely what they said. That's not even correctly reading between the lines even if there was stuff in between the lines. The fact is, the right cries wolf and the left doesn't when it comes to voter fraud.
