SW: Assumption A: The point of a secret ballot is to make sure that a specific ballot cannot be linked to a specific voter.

Assumption B: In the event of fraud there will be X number of fraudulent voters.

Conclusion: Because ballots can not be linked to specific voters (Assumption A) it is impossible to know which ballots are fraudulent, only that there are X number of them (Assumption B).

Assumption A: Because ballots can not be linked to specific voters it is impossible to know which ballots are fraudulent, only that there are X number of them.

Assumption B: Therefore, voter fraud is just as widespread as voter suppression.

You don't see a a rather huge leap of faith from Assumption A to Assumption B?
