Showing Original Post only (View all)Should and could there be another election before 2020 if election was hacked? [View all]
If it is proven that the election was affected by a Trump/Russia conspiracy, should there be another election before 2020?
If so, what do you think the red line should be that triggers that decision? Would it have to include the actual hacking of the election results? What form of proof would we need?
What mechanism would be used to call for a new election? Example, at least a two-thirds senate and house vote in favor?

It's asked, apparently, to prove the addage "Hope springs eternal". No other explanation, really.

Suppose it was proven the voting machines were hacked and Clinton should have won.
