Rep. Quigley says the Russians hacked into 36 States boards of elections successfully.

Huh. Rep. Quigley says the Russians “hacked into 36 States’ boards of elections successfully.” Number we’ve seen previously is 21 states, unless I’ve missed something.

This would not surprise me though (that is's more like 36). I am convinced the Russians conspiring
with the Trump campaign altered the vote count in a few states. That this may ultimately come out
is anybodies guess. The powers that be don't want you and me to know we don't live in a democracy anymore.

Putin rigged the election for Trump. Why else hack all those states. I bet Hillary actually won even the electoral college except that Putin's hackers rigged the count. That BS that Trump wanted to lose is a lie. He knew Russia was fixing the count for him.

So did they rig all 36 state's vote counts.

showed 24 out of 28 states went more for Trump that exit polls indicated. Probability against that is
astronomical.

some Russian hacker to get the signal from Moscow to release the code and tell it to go active the minute the polls close. Can we all feign shock and surprise when Republicans win by a landslide in all those states?
