Conspiracy theory of the day

 

By design, tens of millions of votes are cast across America on machines that cannot be audited, where the votes cannot be verified, and there is no meaningful paper trail to catch problems – such as a major error or a hack. For almost 17 years, states and counties around the country have conducted elections on machines that have been repeatedly shown to be vulnerable to hacking, errors and breakdowns, and that leave behind no proof that the votes counted actually match the votes that were cast...

Hanging over all of this is a question that scares many: what if voters did find problems with their ballots? And what would election officials do if it was found that ballots were cast on hacked machines? There may not be a better way to sow chaos in American democracy than to force dozens of jurisdictions across the country to redo elections.

that was from the UKGuardian in 2019/

who notes that the old machines with problems were replaced with new machines from the same folks that also were open to voting irregularities. A two part series.

I remember the problem with touch screen voting when I lived in New Mexico: the touch screen refused to take my choice and put a different choice,...after four retries i mananged to get it put in correctly but of course not everyone would notice.

And of course, Philadelphia has a long history of voting machines that wouldn't click. And remember the "hanging chads" of Florida in 2000? 

Paper ballots are being pushed by some, but the ballots in the back room being added is a routine problem here in the Philippines.
Which is why, a couple years back, the gov't switched to machine voting...

and as a result, the voter's private information was hacked 49 million people, one of the largest hacks in history.
