Clinton Urged To Challenge Election Results Due To Possible Hacking [Update] (cnn.com)

Reader Bruha writes: After examining results in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin computer scientists have discovered Clinton averaged 7% worse in counties with e voting machines vs. counties with only paper or optical scan ballots.From a CNN report:The computer scientists believe they have found evidence that vote totals in the three states could have been manipulated or hacked and presented their findings to top Clinton aides on a call last Thursday. The scientists, among them J. Alex Halderman, the director of the University of Michigan Center for Computer Security and Society, told the Clinton campaign they believe there is a questionable trend of Clinton performing worse in counties that relied on electronic voting machines compared to paper ballots and optical scanners, according to the source. The group informed John Podesta, Clinton's campaign chairman, and Marc Elias, the campaign's general counsel, that Clinton received 7% fewer votes in counties that relied on electronic voting machines, which the group said could have been hacked.Halderman wrote more about it on Medium today in an article titled, "Want to Know if the Election was Hacked? Look at the Ballots"

Update: Green party candidate Jill Stein is asking for donations to fund a recount of her own in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, which are the states key to Hillary Clinton's surprising loss. Stein says she must raise $2.5 million by Friday 4 pm central time to proceed.

Own It

[Sir_Eptishous]

When I read your post, it is obvious you are a Trump supporter, and by finishing your statement with "Fucking morons" you definitely fit the mold of a Trump supporter.

Whether there was hacking, whether Trump is in bed with the Russians(and their hacking resources, etc) doesn't really matter.
We all know that Trump will be the next president.

Also, and much more importantly, we also know what Trump has said, and saw his behavior...

So I say this with all honesty and without a hint of sarcasm, own your support of Trump.
Own and embrace his calls for xenophobia, racism, sexism, misogyny and bigotry.
Don't back pedal and make a half hearted attempte to normalize Trump and your support for him.
Don't be a pussy and try to distance yourself from his extremism.
Own it.
