Every time the polls are wrong, we question the polls and never the vote-counting apparatus.

Those machines have been corrupt since the day they were made (by known GOP supporters).

Election officials aren't able to audit them because the company(s) that manufacture them
refuse to allow access, under the guise that "the information is proprietary". What bullshit.

1) Would this be allowed by any other institutional agency of government or private enterprise? NO!

2) Do you really want us to believe that the code for these machines is so highly sophisticated
that it would jeopardize your intellectual property and that your competition would love to gain access to it?
All they are supposed to is count votes FFS!!

Huge difference in being able to have certain chain-of-custody of information from your online device to your bank account.
