Is Anyone Here Thinking That This Russian Hacking Issue Is....

[global1]

just a convenient deflection for Repugs to take the spotlight away from them stealing enough votes in certain key states to get Trump the electoral votes needed to get over 270?

Sure Russia & Putin were successful in influencing this election - but my feeling is that the knockout punch was the Repugs stealing votes.

Maybe Obama is in the process of gathering info on Repugs actions in this election as well as gathering more info on the Russians.

In order for the American People to have confidence in future elections we need to explore both the hacking issue as well as the voter suppression and the electronic voting machines that can be easily manipulated with lack of a paper trail.

We have these major presidential elections every 4 years. There's enough time in between these elections for all states to shake down their machinery and correct all issues before the next election. In my opinion it is a travesty that on election day we run into all sorts of problems - when all of these problems could have and should have been addressed before the election.

After this election we've learned of many machine malfunctions and questionable issues connected with miscounting, vote changing, etc. This election is over and is now history - but what are we doing now going forward to prevent these same things from happening four years from now.
