Mathematics (statistics) is just a language. It's not "science" in any way, but the language used to describe our models of reality, taken from experimental measure.
This language can be used to create arguments. The arguments, the debate, are the process by which we get closer to the truth.
In the case of the election data, substantial arguments can be made using math to show that it is "impossible" that the election was not fraudulent (sufficient to change the outcome of the election).
The problem isn't that there are no arguments, nor is it the language used for those arguments (math or english e.g.), it is that there is no debate. People aren't "denying" the math, they are ignoring it. None of the evidence gets shown. Counter argument do not address the arguments themselves. Instead they cite something else, they misdirect away from the arguments, or give "doubts" by "expert" statement. These experts are usually just "experts say," without any actual expert at all, but even when there is one, they don't actually address the mathematical arguments.
No one has addressed the arguments directly. Until people look at the arguments, it's just going to go around in circles. People must stop trusting "the experts," thus Covid, Vaccines, and God knows what else is around the corner to break faith in our "experts" and "leaders."
Its a language, you are right there. But is it a language spoken by the universe? The universe doesn't speak english or even serbo-croat, does it speak math or something else such as the supernatural?
Probably. Statistics was invented to give statisticians something to argue about and thereby make a living as it has no answers, only more questions.
