I think any method of voting can be subject to fraud...

As Stalin was quoted as saying, “You know, comrades,” says Stalin, “that I think in regard to this: I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this — who will count the votes, and how.”

I think everyone who votes should show photo ID proving they are who they say they are, and then, upon voting, have their finger dipped in purple ink, like in Iraq.

Vote counting is left up the states. That it why it is absolutely essential to vote in local and state-wide politicians who are unbiased and fair. Of course, it is possible for the vote counters to skip these people and put a win in for anyone they can.

We need accountability in the voting process. Some sort of review of means and methods would go a long way.

I do not think that a computer-based fraud is ongoing. Too many cooks spoil the soup, as they say, and the biggest problem with conspiracies is that when they need to use a lot of people, the idea that no one would talk becomes less and less likely. Not impossible, but given human nature, extremely difficult.

Generally speaking, government is bureaucratic and stupid, not wily and clever.
