What can be done to fight the results of a dirty election?

[Botany]

What we know now is that Russia* hacked into the US Elections, that many states were running
a program called "crosscheck"** that removed voters from being able to have their votes counted
in order to keep people from traveling from their home state to another state to vote, and in N.C.,
PA, and WI (all states that ran "crosscheck&quot exit polls*** showed HRC won.

** The system, called Crosscheck, is detailed in my Rolling Stone report,
“The GOP’s Stealth War on Voters <http://www.gregpalast.com/rolling-stone-expose-gops-secret-plan-steal-vote/>,” 8/24/2016.

Crosscheck in action:
Trump victory margin in Michigan: 13,107
Michigan Crosscheck purge list: 449,922

Trump victory margin in Arizona: 85,257
Arizona Crosscheck purge list: 270,824

Trump victory margin in North Carolina: 177,008
North Carolina Crosscheck purge list: 589,393

Trump, "It is rigged." And he was right too. Putin and the alt right along w/Comey have just run a coup.

1. I think some crimes are too big for many people to handle, imagine - or at least to admit to.

They cross a line that many people don't want to go, or can't go. If we don't recognize that our country is - and has been - under attack - for a long time - the future will be dark indeed.

The big question, of course, is what to do about it.

2. The big question, of course, is what to do about it.

Contact the POTUS, the D o J, and Democratic Senators. The media will not cover this
subject until we turn these small embers into a bonfire.

3. well put.

[Botany]

4. I still can't watch the news or read a newspaper except for sports

I find that in my good times I am numb or in a fog and in the bad times the
pain hits me in waves. This election does not pass the smell test.

5. I've been slogging about and depressed since election night.

Trying to get focused on garden stuff - finding it hard to write. Mostly been lining up talks for next year - will be in Michigan in Feb, working on Nashville, trying to get motivated for book 3....but the thing helping most is music - and reading - and walking.

6. Contact me

I have come up w/the greatest way in the world to grow tomatoes.

7. This election the signs are impossible to ignore. Too much evidence saying it is so.

Something Stinks When Exit Polls and Official Counts Don't Match

All the polls agree. Nine most accurate 2012 pollsters ALL predicted Hillary Clinton victory.
Most accurate final, national pre-election estimates in 2012, here sort ordered by accuracy, with their predicted Clinton margins:

Ipsos/Reuters +5
YouGov +4.5
PPP +5 in battleground states
Angus-Reid +4
ABC/WP +5
NBC/WSJ +4
CBS/NYT +3
YouGov/Economist +5
UPI/CVOTER +3

What is most disturbing about the pattern this time is how much more extensive the rigging appears to be. There are several Senate seats involved, and the balance of the US Senate was flipped dramatically. The Presidential contests with Senate contests in the same states are the ones most skewed, WI, PA, NC, OH, MO. I wondered why the presidential race was so far from exit polling in MO, then realized Blunt was losing his Senate seat. MO is skewed 10.7%, three times the margin of error in the exit polls.

8. "What we know now is that Russia* hacked into the US Elections..."

Really? The link you provide says no such thing.

In fact, what we now know is that Admiral Michael Rogers said,

"This was a conscious effort by a nation-state to attempt to achieve a specific effect." He added, "This was not something that was done casually. This was not something that was done by chance. This was not a target that was selected purely arbitrarily."

That much, we know. For you to say, "hacked into the US Elections" is hyperbole.

9. "The NSA Chief Says Russia Hacked the 2016 Election. Congress Must Investigate."

I got that from the title of the article I linked to.

12. Give me a cite.

What exactly did they hack? The voting machines?, the central tabulators?, the electronic registration systems?

When this was first trotted out the claim "nation state" was rationalized because it was assumed that it took millions and millions of dollars to pull it off and only a "nation state" would have such resource.

This image I got from MotherJones, back when Corn wasn't a tool.

10. or...

perhaps just completed one begun some time ago.

11. The headline is misleading. They didn't "hack the election",

but their hacking of the DNC emails and others INTERFERED with the election.

Hacking the election implies they were hacking voting machines, which would require voting machines to be hooked to the internet, which they are not.

With that said, Putin definitely had his hands in this, regardless of what his diligent supporter a couple posts above me says.
