"It increasingly looks like Russian hackers may have affected actual vote totals."

162. I am NOT denying the possibility.

It is possible. I fully believe that Russia is exploring the possibility of doing this in the future. But there are no FACTS to back the claim that they did it in 2016. I read all of these articles with much interest when they are posted because the titles sound like the found some proof. But it is always the same info. It's just clickbait. And it distracts from the actual problem we CAN prove and which if HORRIFYING.

To repeat, in my state, NC, an ILLEGALLY gerrymandered GOP majority enacted Jim Crow type laws designed to disenfranchise young, black and poor voters and threw the election to Donald Trump. They are now refusing to re-draw their racially discriminatory and illegal districts while they dismantle healthcare and public education and sell it off to the highest bidder. They send ICE agents to arrest parents in school pickup lines. Cut education in poor black districts and siphon the money into those with majority white and GOP leaning voters. This is happening RIGHT NOW. We have actual PROOF. This is how they stole the election and this is how they are stealing our healthcare and our children's education.

I WISH it was as simple as a hacker stealing votes from a machine. That is a crime. That is a thing we can fix. But the sad truth is MUCH worse and much harder to correct. Pretending that the fixing the problem is as easy as changing our voting machines does no one any favors except maybe the GOP.
