The real problem is that you can't conclusively prove that the election WAS honest. The system is just too opaque. And, with an opaque system and HUGE incentive to cheat, the burden is on those claiming it was legitimate.
Until the system is fixed and made transparent, all the incentives point to corruption by those who have already shown they will say and do anything to get their way.
