Another person might read it more like "There is no evidence (that we're aware of) that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised", in which case proof technically doesn't need to be provided, as one can truthfully state that they are not aware of evidence of an event independently of whether that event occurred or not.
