In 2000 the GOP flipped Florida by keeping people from voting and screwing with the voter roles

.... to the tune of 20,000 votes in 2016 the Russians did something similar in more than just Florida.


The "they didn't change vote output" is a red herring ... they didn't have to change vote output just keep people from voting at all especially in inner city areas where people are more likely not to follow up ... like in 2000.


Either way, no one in their right mind is believing the Russians just hacked state local level electoral systems AND other state voter registration, then said "anh ... nothing here ... lets just go and leave all this data alone"



The "hacking didn't change anything" meme the M$M and the rest of Washington is on is old an condescending
