Fraud claim demeans all election judges

This claim about voter fraud made by our new president is really demeaning to every election judge in America. Either he's implying we're too stupid to know the difference, or we all should be in jail for fixing the election, because how can people vote illegally without going through the election judge? Those millions of people he alleges voted illegally, did they all vote by mail? Because even when you vote early, you have to go through an election judge.

I've been an election judge for 21 years and most of those years, the Republican judges outnumbered the Democrat judges in my precinct. The ratio was always pretty much three Republicans and two Democrats, and that was the situation in this past election. Both judges accepting the credentials of our potential voters were Republican and I sat between them.

My complaint is this: Why is the media not bringing this slandering of all the election judges to the attention of the American people? Why is it the media bangs out every word this bellicose president utters without realizing the counterpoint to his empty accusations?

We election judges are not crooked. We work very hard to try to do a good and honest job at the best of our ability and we don't need this loudmouth narcissistic bully insinuating that we are all potential felons trying to rig elections.
