35. I am so sorry to hear that. The tragedy continues...
We desperately need to cast off the "tinfoilhat" put downs and start asking:

"So why aren't elections appropriately audited?"

Control of the most powerful military on the planet is at stake. Of course power hungry liars will cheat if given half a chance.

Hell, we give them the ballots and trust them to tell the truth without audits. I don't know which is worse: their crimes or our stupidity.

Whispers in back rooms will not reverse this issue. They will not quietly concede back one of their two main sources of power (the other being their ownership of the lion's share of the press).
