Third Party Splitters (aka Greens) Plus Paperless E-Voting Equals Stolen Elections

Easy math. Say your voter disenfranchisement efforts won’t be enough to swing a close election. You set up electronic voting with no paper trail then you can shift just enough Dem votes to the Green candidate to stay within the margin of error while nudging the Republican over the top.

Posting this because some folks assume that Trump “won” because Americans are stupid. I don’t think we are as gullible as the press likes to claim. I think the press says “Boy, aren’t we stupid!” so they won’t have to ask hard questions every time we have a Florida 2000 or an Ohio 2004. Because hard questions make their brains hurt.

Still no Democratic candidates saying they lost because of hacked voting machines.

They could have footage of Paul Ryan personally burning Democratic ballots and pissing on the ashes, and a large number of people would still dismiss all claims of vote tampering.

Win. A multitude of factors converged to create this outcome. I value the fact that you mention Florida 2000 and Ohio 2004. I will never forget these.

it's very easy to from one server's url address to another server thousands of miles away.....same scriptname on both servers......but the actual script coding on that 'other' server can be programmed to flip votes. Then the processing is switched back to the initial server.....now the vote totals have been 'flipped'.
Happens without anyone who's watching the screen even knowing that there was a primary and secondary server being switched. This happened in 1999 with Ohio SOS's computers.....switched to Chattanooga TN
