>> 70% of Americans don't believe the election was "stolen," despite the bullshit that Trump is spewing ... So, what if we call it something besides "stolen"? Was it cheating for Zuck to pay $10 per Democrat vote vs. $2 per Republican vote, when that money was dispersed to government agencies pursuant to grands allegedly to help defray local election & counting expenses? We could call it cheating if you prefer. But it wasn't "fair". I can say that much with certainty. Do you find any element of unfairness in wealthy people donating money to county agencies to be used as dictated by the donor?

Not wanting to make a deal out of it, but when about 1/3 of voters believe the election was stolen, it is not a vote where the majority wins the issue. It is 1 in three who believe the election was stolen. The majority of voters do not understand what internal control is about, or they get their news from any newspaper or network newscasts. You probably want to ask yourself why Vegas casinos spend millions protecting their money but we want to believe elections are secure. If you understand internal accounting controls, this is easier to understand.
