10. There have been machines counting votes since 1964.
Their presence in the voting process has been growing steadily since they were first introduced. Now 80% of all our votes are counted by two companies. Two private companies that strongly support Republicans.
And even before machines counted the ballots, some of them got dumped in rivers.
Fraud (in every industry, not just voting) has been around a long, long time. Lots of people have been convicted of it.
As our systems get more complex it is only natural to expect that the fraud will as well.
Until we investigate thoroughly, it's all speculation. The 'election was fraud' is speculation. The 'election was legitimate' is speculation.
It's all based on speculation, since there is no verification process.
Which is why we need to investigate.
