Many people have an almost instinctively negative reaction to of the suggestion that elections could be stolen. The idea that a large number (maybe even a majority) of elected officials in the United States are installed by fraud would be a tidy explanation for why politicians care so little about issues that are important to their consultancies, but when fraud is suggested many people respond with a sullen "But that can't happen because it doesn't happen!" They reject objective reality in favor of a fantasy because they find the fantasy more appealing, more safe, less demanding of personal action. Anything that threatens this delusion is met with hostility.
