See, here is the problem. You are assuming that there are no safeguards in place. That no thought was ever given to those issues. Which of course is not a rational assumption. All available evidence is that the system works pretty well. When fraud does occur, it is often caught. Given that every election cycle there are some cases caught, that totally blows your arguments out of the water. If there were no safeguards, how do those people get caught? Did they turn themselves in? I suppose you will argue that those safeguards are inadequate. Which immediately raises the question of what do you base your assessment on? Gut feeling? Maybe some augury? Signs and portents? Or the babblings of people who don't know what they are talking about? You certainly don't, that is for sure. I am pretty sure you have never worked an election. Never worked with companies that supply election materials. Nor have you done anything remotely similar to running an election. Inventory and accounting systems are not the same. And you make shit up. Like the voting and tabulating machines were programmed using floating point numbers. I explained to you exactly how stupid such a belief is. No doubt you still believe it. You clearly didn't know that each ballot has a unique barcode so that scanning a ballot multiple times results in only one vote. You certainly have no clue as to the actual procures and checks that are used to validate an election. Given your degree of expressed ignorance, why on Earth do you think you can have an actual opinion as to the safety of our elections? You know almost nothing about how they are conducted So, garbage in, garbage out..
