If someone wants to make an accusation of voter fraud, that accusation needs to go in front of the courts. Either it's true, and the state has committed a crime, and some people need to go to jail. Or it's false, and the person made the accusation cynically, recklessly damaging democracy, which should be a serious crime akin to defamation, and the accuser needs to go to jail. There's a third possibility, which is that the person made the allegation in good faith even though the allegation is false. But it should be up to the courts to figure it out. Because trial by media where someone can make false allegations freely -- far more damaging and evil than defamation towards a single individual, yet somehow not a crime even if the claims are lies -- is clearly not working.
