    Love it, but in all seriousness, the Dems need to be on top of election security harder than Trump in a teen age beauty pageant dressing room. Use the districting vote as a test run to make sure everything is locked down.

      The amount of election fraud in the history of the United States is not enough to have flipped a single election so it really isn’t an issue. Added “security” to elections often means restricting who is able to vote. While that could theoretically cause the demographic which supports the Democrats to have a majority it also suppresses the voices of others who should have as much of a way as anyone else.

        I’m not talking about vote security. I mean the election systems themselves. Servers, tabulators and machines. Don’t trust any of them without verification. No one is going to move enough fake ballots to flip an election without getting caught. It only takes one person with the wrong access to change server totals and leave no trace.
