(60,429 posts)Diebold and ESS can flip votes, but massive manipulation gets conspicuous. Remember the one electronic voting machine in Ohio 2004 that actually DID get forensically examined? The one in a precinct with 600 registered voters that gave Bush 3000 votes? Bush only "won" Ohio and therefore a second term due to electronic voting machines and the Ohio Secretary of State allowing the other "reported" results to go unchallenged. If a similar result is reported in Alabama this time, I doubt it will go unchallenged.
You can bet that McConnell's minions and Putin's geeks are busy looking to see if Al Franken was ever rude to his second grade teacher, ready to make another "scandal" out of it. Anything to distract from what an awful character they are running in Alabama, and get Alabama voters' minds off the unthinkable--voting for a Democrat. Then they get the worst case scenario--a moderately conservative Democrat doing a very credible job of representing Alabama in the Senate, and the high risk that the people of Alabama might notice.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
