I would rate this as unprovable not straight up BS, but good point.

Much like the argument that you don’t need a gun, cops will protect you.

By “fix” I meant “steal.”

I thought that would be obvious to anyone with an IQ above room temperature.

The feds don’t have anything to do with their “security.”

You're wrong about that. U.S. Attorneys are standing by ready to investigate any fraud claims.

I think Neilsen’s statesmenta about Russia and foreign influence are merely a smokescreen, in a sense. The only real danger of election fraud and tampering is Dems.

[PANIC IN DC]
If you witness members of ANTIFA or any other people or organizations stationed at ‘key’ voter locations making threats or attempting to use scare tactics [voter intimidation] please contact local authorities immediately and report the incident(s).
Internal comms suggest preparations are being made and organized to conduct a 29+ location push [battleground locations].
See Something
Say Something
Uniformed and Non-Uniformed personnel will be stationed across the country in an effort to safeguard the public.
If you witness anything out of the ordinary with regards to staff, officials, machinery & equipment failures and/or malfunctions, unusual ‘grouping’ [buses dropping off people w/ guide and/or instructor], voter prevention [blocking], or other suspicious activity please contact local authorities immediately and report the incident(s).
See Something

People need state phone numbers I guess. I added stars to the line for any areas of the country.

United States Attorneys Available To Receive Election Complaints

Geoffrey S. Berman and Richard P. Donoghue, the United States Attorneys for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York, respectively, announced today that special telephone numbers have been set up to receive complaints of possible violations of federal election laws relating to the upcoming general elections in New York City and other counties in their districts.

The United States Attorneys said that their Offices will be available to receive complaints at the following numbers on Tuesday, November 6, 2018:

(646) 369-4739 (for Manhattan, Bronx, Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, and Westchester counties)

(718) 254-6790 (for Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Nassau, and Suffolk counties)

********In addition, complaints of possible violations of federal election laws may be made directly to the Federal Bureau of Investigation at (212) 384-1000.*******

The Department of Justice has an important role in deterring election fraud and discrimination at the polls, and combating these violations whenever and wherever they occur. The Department’s long-standing Election Day Program furthers these goals, and also seeks to ensure public confidence in the integrity of the election process by providing local points of contact within the Department for the public to report possible election fraud and voting rights violations while the polls are open on Election Day.

Federal law protects against such crimes as intimidating or bribing voters, buying and selling votes, impersonating voters, altering vote tallies, stuffing ballot boxes, and marking ballots for voters against their wishes or without their input. It also contains special protections for the rights of voters, and provides that they can vote free from acts that intimidate or harass them. For example, actions of persons designed to interrupt or intimidate voters at polling places by questioning or challenging them, or by photographing or videotaping them, under the pretext that these are actions to uncover illegal voting, may violate federal voting rights law. Further, federal law protects the right of voters to mark their own ballot or to be assisted by a person of their choice.

The right to vote is a cornerstone of American democracy. We all must ensure that those who are entitled to vote exercise that right if they choose, and that those who seek to corrupt it are brought to justice.

The United States Attorneys also noted that the following additional telephone numbers are available on Election Day for citizens to call for routine inquiries, such as where to vote or how late the polls are open, or to register complaints that may concern violations of New York State election laws:

IN NEW YORK CITY

City Board of Elections

Main Office: (866) 868-3692

TTY #: (212) 487-5496

IN COUNTIES OUTSIDE NEW YORK CITY

County Boards of Elections

Dutchess (845) 486-2473

Nassau (516) 571-8683

Orange (845) 360-6500

Orange (Spanish language) (855) 331-2444

Putnam (845) 808-1300

Rockland (845) 638-5172

Suffolk (631) 852-4500

Sullivan (845) 807-0400

Westchester (914) 995-5700

Assistant United States Attorney David J. Kennedy is responsible for overseeing the handling of complaints of voting rights abuses and election fraud for the Southern District of New York.

Assistant United States Attorney Erik Paulsen is responsible for overseeing the handling of complaints of voting rights abuses and election fraud for the Eastern District of New York.

Oh, good grief. The idea that our elections are as secure as ever. So many places you can commit fraud. The still have electronic machines in some placed, and then there is the ever-present ballot-stuffing, i.e. the old box of ballots in the abandoned car trunk ploy.

Are you an election official by any chance?

So you think Trump’s administration are lying and could give a s*** about clean elections, and are utterly helpless to change anything.

Ooookay.
