5. No, this doesn't have anything to do with the Governor's race

This article is pointing out that there were problems with vote counting in the Lt. Governor's race relating to electronic voting machines.

Still, I believe there were other shenanigans which cost her the race. Voting locations were moved at the last minute, there weren't enough voting machines delivered to some precincts, voters were purged from the voting rolls. And of course there was a higher percentage of minority voters affected by these tricks..... all of this must be fixed.
