So the entire system cannot be trusted and is entirely vulnerable to fraud, but all elections are not fraudulent? So the big bad guys are only being fraudulent once in a while, even though they get away with it every time. I don’t understand these mental gymnastics. Either believe in democracy (with all its flaws) or you don’t. You can’t just sit here and cry about what might have happened because you can’t verify it yourself. Democracy works and is trusted because we can verify with hand recounts what happened. Saying that the results are unverifiable is dishonest. If you want to reinforce democracy, then put effort into fixing it. Your current tone only serves to cast doubt about democracy.
