Dude, you could hack a ballot box [before they went fully electronic. All you needed was a hairpin and either an empty bag or a bag filled with fake ballots. It's not like they've got the tightest security down at the senior community centre in Forks, WA.



Yeah but you can't hack it with a computer while sitting in an office in Russia.

What would they lose by telling the truth. China or NK could be just as easily an Enemy of the State.
Why risk a lie if they were so sure Hillary would win it anyways? They were calling it Russian Hacks even before the election.


Well, you may be able to hack a ballot box, or possibly a district count. But it would be an unbelievable feat to be able to coordinate that kind of execution at a significant volume to sway the election.... (until they're all internet connected)((or until Obama federalizes the election process ))

So yes, it is a shame that with enough b$ you can sway a significant portion of the people.



Yeah, US politicians are just embarrassed to admit that the majority of US citizens are easily manipulated through common 13-year-old hacker social engineering.

Someone linked me to the fake email communication concerning the Clintons posted on 4Chan - the people corresponding with each other put on a very well scripted and acted show - I'm sure many similar attempts, by different people, were acted out in many places on the interwebs.

ie; I would be interested to see how many 'new' subscribers signed up with Twitter and Facebook during the year before election.
