(5,275 posts)I'm 99% sure the 2004 election was flipped . All signs pointed to Kerry winning by 5-6 % and voila, it was the other way around. The polls had been pretty much on the mark historically but no matter, they got blamed.
Anonymous claims Rove was set to do the same thing in 2012, using a server in Tennessee, but they blocked him. That was why Rove had his 2012 meltdown on Fox when Ohio was called for Obama to put him over the top.
E-Voting, any Machine/Computer voting - all can be hacked. I cannot believe the democrats have been insane enough to go along with these systems. Again, we should learn from what Stalin said, that the power is not with the people who vote but rather with who counts those votes.
The only foolproof way is paper ballots with strict custody of those ballots and videotaped counting with all parties as well as neutral observers present.
The custody is vitally important, republicans have been prosecuted for tossing votes in the trash.
