Yesterday the headline to the lead editorial in The New York Times caught my eye. I was excited to read that I was going to be treated to the "real" election fraud of 2016. I thought, "Finally The Times has discovered the nine methods of voter suppression tactics used by Republicans last year as originally reported by well-known investigative writer, Greg Palast, and broadcast by Joy Reid on MSNBC.
Alas, I was to be sadly disappointed, as the article simply told about the dangers of Russian hacking. Certainly, Russian operatives did hack both the Democratic National Committee and its Republican counterpart. But I have seen no evidence that said Russian persons or their henchmen penetrated any of our states' electronic voting systems. I await any countervailing proof.
In a separate post I hope to write about some of the reasons why I think it is so hard for Americans to believe their election could have been compromised by Americans. But for now, it seems fairly obvious why it could have happened: There are plenty of very wealthy people who had the motive, since the Republican Party has reliably offered tax reduction for the wealthy. This matter of motive is not so hard to believe. Much more can be said.
I ask and invite you to help spread the word about the Republican theft of Election 2016. Refer people to the Greg Palast web site. Refer them here. The facts are available and discoverable.
So let the discovery begin.
