Experts urge Clinton to demand election recount in three key states amid vote hacking fears

[davislane1]

I dont appreciate my post being deleted Techspot. Because it was a reply to a deleted post? I dont care if it was deleted, MY point was still in there in MY post. Just because the other person realized he was being silly and deleted his post...

I'd like to request it to be put back up please.

So basically, I'm faulted for someone else's fault?

Where do I find the contents of my post? Where do I make my complaint? Who was the mod who deleted it? Why cant I find this information?

I've made a habit of stopping by archive.is and archiving the page after any post more than a few sentences long. At the very least, it preserves a record.

 

[Trillionsin]

I'm sorry, but what you say is just retarded and nobody should threaten the author just because he wrote an article like this.

Why are you name-calling? I didn't insult nor threaten anyone.
You're not paying attention - if you did, you'd notice that Rob (aka midian182) posts A LOT of political posts on a tech site.

I didnt see where the threat was either... hmmm

I've made a post about this on the forums... it's not that I cant repost what I wrote. I don't really agree with how it was handled. I would just like to know what mod deleted it.

my apologies if I misunderstood what you said.
it seem that I just read that wrong most likely because of huge increase in troll posts everywhere.

Can she please just go away now.... I almost voted for Trump just to see her go away.

When Trump made the remark that he might not accept a loss, the Democrats tore him apart. Do they see the hypocrisy in their actions yet?

No, because in most liberals minds, it's THEIR way or the highway.

 

[p51d007]

So, just because there is no evidence of something, means it never happened. Love your logic. Despite who I was for or who I'm against, you are funny man.

Ummmm....YES...because we live in the USA, under laws that say you have the right to face your accuser, and if it is not proven beyond a reasonable doubt, then the "person" is not guilty. Since they have NO EVIDENCE, other than their "educated guess", then nothing should proceed further. If they find PROOF, other than making it up, THEN bring it to the attention of the authorities.

 

[p51d007]

The pollsters are just mad because they got it wrong. I believe a lot of people didn't want to say they were voting Trump due to the backlash. However main problem is the fact that people just didn't go out and vote.

EXACTLY...it hurts their "brand" if they were THAT FAR OFF. The next time someone wants a poll, they will not look to the pollsters that got it THAT wrong!

 

[p51d007]

If they were to actually TEACH how our REPUBLIC (as opposed to a democracy) works, things would be a little
different. I've seen story after story "how can she get the most votes, but still lose the election".
You little snowflakes still don't get it. YOU have a voice in government, the house of representatives. Each individual state USE to have a voice in government, called the senate (until they passed the 17th amendment). The UNITED states, have a voice in government, called the President of the UNITED STATES (not the united people). The president is the chief executive, who is elected by the states. The electoral college, votes, given how each state votes. The electoral system, is another great check and balance of our system. If not for it, the large population centers in the nation (centered around California, Illinois, Florida, New York, Texas etc) would reap ALL the government attention, and the rest of the nation would suffer. The college, gives equal weight, and equal representation.

 

[johnnapiranha]

LOL...waste of time. For one thing, THERE IS NO EVIDENCE of hacking. Second, if Hillary does this, it will show how even more how a BIG HYPOCRITE she is. Wasn't it her that made a big fuss of how Donald Trump should except the election results? If she does challenge the results....LOL, ha,ha,ha...forget about it.

My goodness the Snowflake LEFT can't get over it. From Elector Intimdiation, to rioting, to fake voter hacking....SUCK IT UP, Buttercup. Donald Trump will be the new President of the United States.

there is actual physical evidence...https://www.rawstory.com/2016/11/pressure-mounting-for-presidential-election-recounts-in-a-key-2016-swing-state/

I hope they do a recount, I think that if they went all electronic they should be able to produce your vote electronically for you to confirm your selection. After you turn in a paper ballot it's more difficult to tamper with vs an electronic system which in the past has been know to be owned by a corrupt counterpart.

Side note - its funny how easily it is to identify the Trump alt-right racists, they all use the term "liberal" like its a bad thing.

 

[johnnapiranha]

the difference is to denounce PRIOR to the election when the polls look like an eminent loss expected. to dispute results with observed anomalies (plus over 2 million popular vote gap) AFTER an election is much different. I do not think the outcome will necessarily change, but an audit may help restore voter confidence.

Side note - its funny how easily it is to identify the alt-left liberals, they all use the term "racists" to lablel anyone who disagrees with them.

(I must add: most people call me a liberal and I can even say some of you liberals are WAY out there in lala land)

 

[Evernessince]

LOL, these "scientist" have no PROOF, other than their candidate didn't win.
But, as with most liberal claims...it's the "seriousness of the charge" that
matters...not any PROOF.

Actually they do have proof. Aside from what they know (I'm sure they have more than the general public) exit polls showed clinton winning states around the same amount of points entry polls did. In other words, Trump has ghost votes. How is it possible to have more votes in a state and still lose?

We see the same thing in other situations where the vote was rigged. In fact it was that very same indicator that lead US officials to further investigate the vote of secession of Crimea from Ukraine.

 

[Raoul Duke]

Activists involved (proclaimed by experts by the headline) - check
election lawyers involved - check
No conclusive evidence - check
yup, looks like a multi-million dollar investigation is totally warranted.
personally don't think this will happen because if it does, wrong doing is found, Clinton becomes president, by the time it's all over Obama will have essentially had another term in office, it would be an admission that the USA election system is a charade and if Russia was found to be the guilty party, the USA would have to respond in a significant way.
Much easier to accept it as done, work against Trump for 4 years and have a go at it again

The fact that you use the same "little little snowflakes" term as the alt-right is disturbing at best. Do you enjoy putting others down simply because they have a different view.

"The college, gives equal weight, and equal representation"

This statement is completely false. If it did give equal representation California would be worth double the electoral votes it was worth. No, the electoral college gives more representation to smaller states and less to bigger states. It's a fact that if you live in a larger state your vote means 1/2 of what it does in a smaller state. You should not insult others if you yourself don't know how the system works. Fun fact, Liberal states in general are underrepresented in the electoral college. You can thank that on conservatives being mostly in smaller, more rural states.

"If not for it, the large population centers in the nation (centered around California, Illinois, Florida, New York, Texas etc) would reap ALL the government attention"

Uh, no. It's not like the government can't split up it's budget to fund smaller communities. There are even multiple taxes in place (like on your cable bill) to support Rural communities. Large population areas will always receive more attention simply because there are more people there. People don't go out to the country to feel like city folk. So who exactly is this a valid defense of the electoral college?

" and the rest of the nation would suffer."

More than half the nation is already suffering, how exactly does the electoral college protect us from any of it again? Why does it matter where a person is located? Why should a person's vote in a rural area count more than a person in a highly populated area? What we essentially have is the few holding the many hostage.

you don't really understand why Trump was torn apart do you? this is not hypocrisy.

of course it is hypocrisy. stop drinking the koolaid. think..

 

[MilwaukeeMike]

Hey Wisconsin is in the news! And I've read about how Trump won my normally Blue state, and here's how. Obama's 2012 voters didn't turn out for Clinton. Trump got about the same number of votes as Romney, but Clinton got about 50,000 fewer than Obama. She lost by about 30,000.

About 30,000 of those were in Milwaukee alone. It seems very unlikely that these votes 'vanished' Especially since it'd be pretty easy to tell that they gave out 300,000 ballots, but only tallied 270,000 votes.

All the blue areas in Wisconsin went predictably blue in the expected %, and all the red areas were predictably red, so any vote swapping from Clinton to Trump looks unlikely. All that happened was Clinton voters didn't show up.

People deciding not to vote for someone under FBI investigation isn't hacking.

 

[m4a4]

you don't really understand why Trump was torn apart do you? this is not hypocrisy.

He said he won't know if he'll accept it until after the vote because he suspects voter fraud. Then some Democrats don't accept the results because they think there's voter fraud.

Yeah, totally don't understand /endSarcasm

 

[Bigtruckseries]

Hillary Clinton is the first woman in US history to lose two national Presidential elections.

There is realistically no way Trump should have been able to win. Obama won - with the White vote, twice, with 10,000,000 more votes and 5,000,000 more votes respectively.

The left is desperately trying to scrounge up votes from felons in Virginia who had their voting rights reinstated (just in time for the election) and welfare voters in California and NY.

Thank God for the electoral college.

If not for the electoral college, California, NY, Texas and Florida alone would drown out the majority of the map.

Trump beat her by electoral landslide.

If she's pathetic enough to contest the election, then it will be exactly the opposite of what was expected to happen a month ago...

Remember when everyone was worried the election would be close?

Remember when everyone was worried there'd be protests, riots and violence.

Now look...

Those "signatures" aren't votes.

You people aren't "redoing" a national election and the electoral college is here to stay.

 

[Bigtruckseries]

This entire thing about "hacking fear" is absolute BS.

And it's because the majority of the country is too stupid to understand what actually happened - since MSNBC and CNN don't report real news.

#1 Hillary set up a private email server to hide her correspondence. Not only was this illegal, but she tried to cover it up by destroying government property and ordering her minions to destroy government property.

#2 Hillary's server got hacked. It should have never existed in the first place.

#3 Hillary's hacked data was used against her and Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

#4 The Russians didn't hack her - Wikileaks did - and hid behind Russia.

#5 No one can "hack" the fact I walked into my polling place and voted for Trump.

I did. I have a paper ballot to prove it.

How is this tech news? This site has been posting so much political stuff, and while I enjoy a good political conversation it is getting annoying.

On the conversation though I say go for it... they'll probably find that if there are any fraudulent votes that a majority of them were for Hillary. The left is known for cheating to try and get their way, and when they don't they almost always throw a tantrum. Reminds me of a immature little brat of a child.

Because the word "hacking" is in it.

^This... You would not have a crumb to eat or a highway to drive on if all Federal money went to population centers. If you look at an electoral college map of results of this election you will get a very real view of what "The Heartland" is. The vast expanse of the country covered by "red" covers over 3000 miles you could drive on in one direction without touching a "blue State". All this land and the people on it would have NO representation in a National election were it not for the Electoral College. This is a Democratic Republic, which protects the rights of minorities through a Constitution. Lesser populated States have a right to be represented and their voices heard in a National election. The Electoral College did its job.
