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.

Exactly; I've been waiting for this. For month's I've been thinking that Trump could win the election only if the electronic voting machines were hacked. And of course the Republican sympathizers who cheated didn't stop there; remember both houses of Congress will also have Republican majorities as a consequence of the hacking. Therefore Clinton shouldn't be the only one challenging the election results, insisting at the very least that paper trails from e-voting machines must exist in the future --it can't be any more difficult to do than cash-register machines making paper trails.
And you're goddamned right I am yelling. I am sick of idiots like you pretending they have opinions that matter.
You are an idiot, and your opinion means nothing.
Please throw yourself under a bus, you ignorant fuck. Get your own place to live and move out of Mommy's basement, shit for brains.
You're messin' with my Zen Thing, man.....
Given that we know the DNC and Hillary conspired to rig the primaries against Bernie Sanders, I think she's rather less trustworthy.

It is tho. SJWs and the regressive left have their heads so far up their own asses they cant even have a normal discussion as to why people voted for Trump. If you even try to bring up any points they just yell about racism/homophobia/islamiphobe etc. They refused to see any issues and instead campaigned on a witch hunt of anyone that disagreed with them, as they have been doing for the past 10 years. Most Trump supporters took the higher ground by staying quiet, not acting like whiny children constantly, and when it was time for them to actually make a change, they did.
