If only we required ID to vote, to bad liberals rabidly oppose anything that might guarantee only citizens vote.

For the life of me I cannot understand why people do not see this as a problem.

Social media knows as much about us as our families do. Finding out our leanings would be easy. Any state that requires people to register by political party is asking for many of their voters to be disqualified due to hacking.
Hacking conserns should not be ignored.

If what you say can be done they would have to target 1 specific party of voters and somehow avoid the publicity of a plethora of people from 1 party having problems.

I'll wait a bit until we hear more news. For all we know the leak may have started from a memo written on DNC software.

It's hard to trust any side.

ID will do no good if the info on the roll has been changed.

This was known by the Administration, the security folks and the Congress before the election. Obama said he wanted to tell. But was afraid he would be accused of tampering with the election. They had a meeting and McConnell said do not tell. I don't know who to believe either. Obama is gone and McConnell's wife is a cabinet member again.

Russia may have been doing this, but maybe they helped President Barack Obama win his 2nd term as President in 2012.

... and when the next story arrives, it'll be "some votes were changed but it didn't affect the outcome."

We have a serious problem with Russian hacking, but the Trump administration is doing little to counter it, sending a signal for Russia to hack us some more in 2018. Trump wants a wall to keep out Mexicans on the southern border but wants open borders for Russian hackers. Go figure.
