Are America's voting machines owned by criminals and controlled by GOP?

Unless the electronic voting machines system is addressed, Democracy is DEAD. Forget the idea of Democrats winning another important election again, ever.

Cheating, corruption... Unfortunately it will very possibly be best described as the END OF DEMOCRACY in America. While everyone is running around worried about RUSSIA (fully legitimate concern), the future of this country and life as we know it hangs in the balance of an issue that mainstream media ISN'T REPORTING A SINGLE WORD ABOUT.

Unless MSM latches on to this story, bringing it to public attention, 2018 elections will come and free of any will be won by Dems. Everyone will scratch their heads wondering.

We cannot let this happen. This story MUST be exposed on a mass public basis, or get used to Trump and fascism in this country.

I'm not at all trying to be an alarmist, rather I'm attempting to expose a story I've watched for over a year, yet remains below the MSM radar.

That's why they're always looking for ways to game the system.

*The electronic voting machines are programmed to favor the GOP in subtle ways that can't be tracked.
*Voter suppression - demanding unnecessary voter ID at the poll - denying legally registered voters for fake/phony reasons
*Gerrymandering - even when we do vote it's already stacked against us because of how the districts are drawn
*Illegal counting (or failure to count) of mail-in ballots
*Rightwing hacking of the "secure" ballot counts to make changes on the final numbers before reporting

These are all things that affect the outcome of our elections.

Don't let the Republicans cheat/steal their way into office. Don't allow 2016 to ever happen again.

The evidence by now is overwhelming. What it would take, among other things, is a constant reminder on web sites like this one, so that people will see the same mantra every single day and others will begin to repeat it to others constantly:

AN ELECTION THAT IS NOT VERIFIABLE OR VERIFIED IS NOT A DEMOCRATIC ELECTION.
A COUNTRY THAT COUNTS THE VOTES ON UNVERIFIABLE ELECTRONIC VOTING MACHINES OR DOES NOT VERIFY THE VOTE IS NOT A DEMOCRACY.
LET PEOPLE KNOW: HAND-COUNTED PAPER BALLOTS.
