In reply to the discussion: Prosecutors unlikely to charge Trump Org executives, sources say (SDNY getting Barred) [View all]not_the_one
(2,227 posts)There will be polls prior to the election, but the media that is supposed to assist in monitoring the actual election through "exit polls" have stopped doing them. (THAT was the first real step in allowing fraudulent elections.)
What is going to clue us in to the fact that Putin has, once again, stole the election for turdface?
turdface is, himself, saying that he could lose the popular vote by 5 million, yet he could still win the EC. They managed to lose the 2016 popular vote by almost 3 million, yet win the 2016 EC by 70,000 votes in three strategically gerrymandered states. And that is apparently fine with the constitution, due to the sacred EC, until the Supreme Court introduces REAL fairness in the drawing of districts. Let's not hold our breath for THAT to happen.
The russians got into almost every state's election system, and into many county/district voter data bases. You don't think they can change things? Every step of the way we keep saying, NO, they can't POSSIBLY do that, only to find out months, or a year later, that is EXACTLY what they did. We are apparently WAY behind the russian counter intelligence agencies in our efforts to stop voter manipulation. Either because our intelligence agencies aren't as smart, or they aren't that concerned about it.
Many states are now moving to paper ballots that are scanned for the tally total. Scanning means possible manipulation. Ask any computer programmer if that is possible.
The only way we can be sure of the vote tallies is if in every district, every ballot is looked at by a democrat and republican representative from the district, with monitors from both sides, deriving a tally total that is then reported, with witnesses, to county and state election offices.
Yet we will throw up our hands and say that can't be done, when it was done for years before computers.
I am afraid that we don't have what it takes to make sure it is a fair fight.
I hope I am wrong.
