(94,585 posts)Democratic Leadership called out Trump campaign corruption this week. None of them claimed voting machines were rigged.
Hillary Clinton dosnt voting machines were rigged.
Barack Obama doesnt claim voting machines were rigged.
No elected official, candidate, Party official or campaign manager claims voting machines were rigged.

(62,444 posts)These are exit poll results.
The vote count is not in yet.
