HACKING an ELECTION🚨
After Nov. 3, 2020 the corporate media told you it was *IMPOSSIBLE* to hack an American election. But before Nov. 3, the corporate media told you it was *EASY* to hack an American election. Wonder what changed? Nothing… it is still easy to hack an election even after a bill was passed to do so. Guess what, nothing in that bill was about computer security, so there you have it. This list is just outlining how easy it is to hack a machine post the 2016 elections (um, when Trump won, bigly), not so much how vulnerable an election would be with a coordinated attack on these systems.
In any case, here is an EXTENSIVE listing of articles from predominately left-leaning corporate media sites stating emphatically that hacking an election is not only possible, but has been ongoing for some time. It is amazing the hypocrisy of these alleged news organizations to change their tune when it was totally obvious that Joe Biden got elected due to extensive hacking from primarily the Chines Communist Party and the leftist that colluded with them.
