So what else could go wrong

yber attacks on twitter, Wikileaks taken off line by the DNC, the FBI possibly compromised by politics, and pundits worrying that the US will have riots if the wrong person wins.

So what else could go wrong on election day?

space weather warns:




The glowing walls of the canyon trace the original channel where the filament was suspended by magnetic forces above the sun's surface. From end to end, the structure stretches more than 200,000 km--a real Grand Canyon. Fragments of the exploding filament formed the core of a CME that raced away from the sun faster than a million mph: movie. NOAA analysts have modeled the trajectory of the CME and concluded that it will probably strike Earth's magnetic field on Nov. 8th. The impact could spark G1-class geomagnetic storms and auroras at high latitudes. Free: Aurora Alerts

luckily G1 storms usually only mean auroras and minor problems and happen all the time...
