Is the New York Times playing games? - DeSantis Dismisses Trump’s 2020 Election Theories as False - What was the reporter's question? (www.nytimes.com)

I smell a rat. The article said:

“All those theories that were put out did not prove to be true,” Mr. DeSantis said in response to a reporter’s question after a campaign event at a brewery in Northeast Iowa.

But did not say what the reporter's question was. Why not?

Later in the article, it has another quote saying Maduro didn't steal the election, but no context as to what he was asked. .

“It was not an election that was conducted the way I think that we want to, but that’s different than saying Maduro stole votes or something like that,” he said. “Those theories, you know, proved to be unsubstantiated.”

As I have said before, I am a DeSantis fan, but view the fact Florida still uses voting machines a deal breaker.

But I am very suspect of this New York Times article. Has anybody seen a video?

Could you please explain in detail why " the fact Florida still uses voting machines a deal breaker"? I don't understand.

They allow too many opportunities for no good.

We need paper ballots, hand counted locally so people can trust the outcome.

Paper ballots are probably just as useless without chain of custody controls and a means of accurately correlating each ballot with an actual voter. Also, local hand counts are no guarantee of accurate & honest counting. In Pennsylvania, Philadelphia is notorious for being the last to report vote results. Such induces the suspicion that the Philadelphia authorities use that time to manufacture just enough fictional votes to obtain the result they are looking for. Here in PA the Republican controlled legislature instituted universal mail-in voting, a bone-head move in my opinion.
