It was that speech where a female from CA I think told him “see you in court” around 22nd Feb, and this was regarding trans’ rights I believe.

I watched some of it live. He talked about lots of things and said he wants to ban all voting booths and have paper ballots and that (in his typical self) “there won’t be cheating, they have advanced technology, really advanced stuff. It’s called… “watermark”. It’s really great”.

Combined with the accusations that there were indeed cheating by paper ballots for some states, it’s kinda the smoking gun that would mean he perhaps shouldn’t be president?

Why is no one here talking about this? Why is no one outraged?

    I never got how the hell the US ever accepted electronic voting machines without the software being completely out in the open. I do not oppose paper ballots, I do oppose for obvious reasons not being able to do your vote in secrecy

      Here’s a list of countries that currently use electric voting. Notice some countries that are missing. Can you note any commonalities between those missing countries.

      For those who simply have no semblance of thought. None of the most autocratic regimes are on this list. The myth that part ballots are any more safe is just that a myth. It’s the people running the elections that make it secure or not, not the method used. Corruptions and fuck ups can happen in any system. There will come a point where there is simply not enough time to put human hands on every ballot cast we must be ready for that. Acting like we can continue to use outdated methods is just putting your heads in the sand.
