Mischief seems to be bound up in the heart of people in every civilization. It doesn't take much to find plenty of examples of people stealing elections.
Was 2018 a practice run for 2020? If we don't learn from these shenanigans, AND TAKE LEGISLATIVE ACTION, we are doomed to see more next cycle around.
People are motivated by success. Electoral results stand. Even after a breach of the system is discovered, the one with the most votes at the moment the election is certified gets to keep the office.
Computerized voting is problematic because they have been proven to be prone to tampering. The integrity of the election can be destroyed with one malicious code --- the results will be skewed. There are no paper ballots to recount if there is a dispute.
Paper ballots are still the Gold Standard when it comes to making your vote count. However, the paper ballots are what keep getting shuffled around and showing up when the Democrat needs more votes to win. So if bad people want to steal elections, they will always find more clever tricks to make it happen.
We must demand reliability, security and transparency. We must remember it took the people to tear down the Berlin Wall!

Why, if she is no longer in office, are these screeds newsworthy!
She's not even local. Randy, can't you find an unhinged lunatic around here to replace her?
I had to do something, Steve. The Globe hasn't run a Geoff Caldwell column for three straight Sundays.
Would you post that comment if I changed the phrase to b**$**t crazy?
I'd rather read a guest post from Hervard Hetchinson than another repost of a Sister Cynthia Davis sermon.
Harvey's local. Fine with me.
I am not sure what is put into their Kool-Aid, but someone needs to screen out these constant lies about Democrats and publish what the republicans have done all over our country to thwart people from voting or nullifying their vote by carving up their districts to minimize their effect. One only has to look at Wisconsin, Michigan and the debacle out in Dodge City, Ks having only one polling place for 10's of thousands of voters and then moving it outside the city limits to limit turnout. Criminal is one apt word to describe their actions and Davis is guilty of allowing it and not condemning their actions.
This was enough to raise my eyebrows! The debacle that is most disgusting is what has been going on in the current administration since January, 2016. Cynthia needs to explore how this election was won by the Republicans. I don't think the Democrats stole that one.
