Was the 2020 Election Stolen? Use Occam’s Razor to Spot the Spin
Was the 2020 election stolen, or does that claim require too many unsupported assumptions? In this week’s Spot the Spin, Chris breaks down Occam’s Razor: a simple framework for evaluating competing explanations by asking which one relies on the fewest unsupported assumptions. Using the 2020 election as an example, he looks at what would need to be true for a coordinated fraud scheme to have changed the outcome across multiple key states, survived audits, recounts, court challenges, and public scrutiny without credible evidence emerging. Occam’s Razor does not mean the simplest answer is always correct. It means the explanation with the fewest unsupported assumptions is usually the one worth leaning toward. Stay fierce. Stay independent.
