One does not simply certify an election, where the actual winner is not known.

Marly Hornik, founder of the election-integrity group NY Citizens Audit, says her organization has reviewed ๐ ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐.๐ ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐จ๐ง ballots cast in New York Cityโs mayoral race and found a staggering rate of irregularities. In a July 22 interview on WABCโs ๐๐ช๐ฅ & ๐๐ณ๐ช๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ด ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฏ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ, Hornik laid out the numbers: ๐% ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฏ๐ข๐๐ฐ๐๐ ๐ฏ๐จ๐ญ๐๐ซ๐ฌ ๐๐ข๐๐งโ๐ญ ๐๐ฑ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ in any legitimate record, 6% used fake Social Security numbers, and 10% didnโt actually live in New York City.
Extrapolated across the full electorate, that works out to roughly ๐๐๐,๐๐๐ ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ๐๐ ๐๐ฅ ๐ฏ๐จ๐ญ๐๐ฌ โ a figure that exceeds Zohran Mamdaniโs entire 207,000-vote margin over independent candidate Andrew Cuomo. Hornik was careful not to overstate her conclusion. โ๐ ๐ข๐ค๐ต๐ถ๐ข๐ญ๐ญ๐บ ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ฏโ๐ต ๐ฌ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ธ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ ๐๐ข๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ข๐ฏ๐ช ๐ธ๐ฐ๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐ข๐บ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ข๐ญ ๐ณ๐ข๐ค๐ฆ, ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐โ๐ฎ ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ด๐ข๐บ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฅ๐ช๐ฅ๐ฏโ๐ต.โ Her point was narrower, and more damning: nobody actually knows.

New York City just installed a self-described socialist as its mayor on a margin smaller than the number of ballots an outside audit says shouldnโt have counted. If the Boards of Elections canโt verify their own rolls, the burden is on them to prove the result, not on the public to accept it on faith.
