A question about voter fraud |
|
I haven't read all the threads as I can't let myself believe this might work. Yeah, I think it happened but I'm too emotionally fragile since the election to think 1. we can prove it or 2. if we prove it anything will happen.
Bless ALL OF YOU who are working on it. I gave all I had through November 2 and was so convinced we'd won the letdown was crushing.
But, I do have a question from what I've read. In a district in Florida someone has called for a recount or an FBI investigation. I thought I read that the vote was by scanner. Does that mean there is a paper trail? Why would they cheat on a system with a paper trail or did I misunderstand. All the posts say it was a scanner and to my way of thinking that's the #2 pencil kind of ballot. No?
If there is a paper trail it could be good news.

1. You can cheat even if there is a paper trail |
|
because all the votes in the end are tabulated using a computer that can be hacked into. If the margin of victory is too big, however,I think it's hard to get a re-count. So, what good is paper trail in the end if you can't get a re-count?

2. Election fraud is as American as cherry pie. |
|
Both parites, by the way, have been skilled practitioners. What is striking here is the blatancy of it.
