most likely influenced some wishy washy peoples vote, but there's no evidence that they hacked the actual votes themselves.

At some point it gets really old. I've been on DU for 17 years and every single election we lose is claimed to have been stolen.

It's not just ignorant to say, it looks childish and makes dems look delusional.
