I don't know how much election fraud goes on, and neither do you. 

Nobody really does because the answer is unknowable. It's not like our election system is auditable--it isn't remotely so--or ever audited. And it's not like the rules are consistent from state to state--sometimes they aren't from city to city. We have countless systems of voting, distributing ballots, collecting ballots, counting ballots, and determining who even gets ON the ballots. 

I have participated in two recounts of elections here in Minnesota--one a Congressional race and another a Senate race. Anybody who thinks a recount will ensure election integrity knows nothing about how recounts work. You aren't just "recounting" ballots--you are fighting over what counts as a legal vote. When Norm Coleman lost to Al Franken, it was decided ballot by ballot in court. 

As a Republican counter I noticed all sorts of questionable things--this in a mostly Red county and in a reasonably well-run election. Looking over the signature books, one thing stuck out: hundreds of signatures in the same handwriting. When I asked the County Auditor about this, she blithely said, "Oh, that's the nursing home. Volunteers sign for the residents."

This apparently happens every election, and is apparently considered OK. My thought was,"Did they vote for them too?"

I don't know, and neither do you. Only the people involved do. 

Millions of ballots go through the US mail--a system that nobody would send a few hundred dollars in cash out of fear that it would disappear--and yet the U.S. Postal Service Union endorsed Kamala Harris. The people who determine whether ballots to or from voters are a partisan group aligned with one candidate--and they know which areas are filled with Trump or Harris supporters. 

Do they manipulate the ballot process? I don't know, and neither do you.

Across the country tens of thousands of people are voting from the same addresses--missions, churches, homeless centers. Are we to believe that drug addicts and alcoholics who live in the streets are motivated at insanely high numbers--sometimes at 90% returns or more from mail-in ballots collected by "volunteers"--in urban areas that are Deep Blue. 

Perhaps. I doubt it. But what do I know? 

This year alone we have seen ballots tossed into rain gutters and lost in the mail, and every single one of them is somehow not processed the normal way with controls like images that are required for all other first-class mail. 

Odd that. But it could be innocent. 

Passwords for voting machines have been leaked on the Internet by the Colorado Secretary of State--who tried to keep Trump off the ballot--and in Pennsylvania, local officials were turning away voters hours before polling places were supposed to close. 

In August, hackers found that EVERY SINGLE voting machine could be hacked, but as usual, there was no time to fix the vulnerabilities.

Are voting machines the one thing nobody would want to hack? Seems implausible, but what do I know?

After all, the winner of this election will control, over the next four years, tens of trillions of dollars in spending, a military force unparalleled in human history, a regulatory system that picks the winners and losers in our economy, control over the medical system, and almost every aspect of our lives if they want to. 

Why would anybody cheat to control something so trivial?

I don't KNOW that there will be cheating in this election, and neither do you (unless you are trying to do it right now), but I do know that it is insane to believe that nobody would try and that the means to do so isn't easy to acquire. You have to be nuts to think that the Chinese could hack into the phones of presidential candidates, Congressmen, and national security officials but nobody could hack into a voting machine. 

Phone and internet services are designed with the highest level of security in mind. Trillions of dollars are moved across these systems every day in trades, money transfers, purchases; highly sensitive information that affects the fate of the world does too. And that system was hacked. 

You bet voting machines can be hacked much more easily. 

I have no idea whether and how much cheating there will be, but I am not naive enough to buy the bulls**t we are being fed. The system needs massive reform, better checks and balances, and sustained efforts to ensure ballot and election security. That Democrats fight this tooth and nail tells you who is doing the cheating. 

Will it matter today? I have no idea. The rigging going on in the infosphere is perhaps more important than voter fraud in our major cities. Millions of people believe countless hoaxes repeated by the Democrats and the media, and that is even more corrosive than election fraud at a modest scale. 

But the system is rigged, and there is almost certainly fraud.
