(154,021 posts)What some of us have argued is that there is a history of cyber shenanigans as recent as the Spring primaries. And whether you have a group of black hats prevent the vote flipping or not, Obama still won fair and square and does not take from the GOTV or the effort. If the GOTV was not there, and people did not come out to vote it would not matter, now would it?
What we are also saying is that the system of 52 state elections have to be fixed where this is not feasible. California is a good model, there *IS* a paper trail, which does not exist in OH, or PA for example. In OH and PA the machines and code are privately owned by companies with close ties to the GOP, another inconvenient truth.
You are stuck in the this cannot happen mentality, which actually makes it possible.
As they say, Denial is not just a river in Egypt.
