Well, I don't know what the other states did prior to last November's election, but the hue and cry over the issue of possible 'massive' voter fraud was a major impetus for the County Registrars in California to do a very much more thorough scrubbing of the voter rolls in advance of the Election Day. I would suspect there was a similar reaction in a very large number of counties across the US, particularly in major and secondary city areas where one would find not only the highest concentration of registered voters but, also, the largest number of possible 'questionable' voters. That said, it would be a good guess last November's voter rolls were quite possibly the 'cleanest' in recent history: after all, if you are the official in charge of the voter rolls, wouldn't it be reasonable to anticipate, regardless of who won the popular vote, your methods and records keeping might be called into question? Wouldn't you value you job enough to ensure possible malfeasance would not be the cause of the loss of that job?...

So, yes, there should be an independent investigation of possible voter fraud. However, given the great tumult raised by the fringes and by Trump prior to the election, it is very reasonable to anticipate they may not get the result they seek and, in turn, severely weaken whatever political currency they may have accrued...
