When all the votes are counted this year, Americans should have far more confidence their votes were tallied correctly than in 2016.

After that contest was upended by Russian interference, states vastly increased the number of votes that are cast with paper records that can be audited later. More than 90 percent of votes will have a paper record this year compared with about 80 percent in 2016.

States have also significantly improved how often and how scrupulously they perform post-election audits.

The changes have been especially significant in some of the states ... contested by Trump.

Georgia and Pennsylvania have both shifted from having paper records for few or none of their voters in 2016 to having paper records for all votes cast in their states — a protection security experts say is a bare minimum to ensure votes weren’t altered by hackers or miscounted because of a technology failure.

    I hate when anyone occulates a federal building - even the assholes in Portland and Seattle and Kenosha.

    While you're remembering CHAZ, could you tally up the total of injured and the dead? I think there was more than just the one murder. Also, that video of all those clock-suckers in CHAZ abusing, denigrating, and attempting to murder a reporter whom they didn't like. We do, all of us, understand that "anarchy" is just a pretty word for describing "lawless motherfuckers", don't we?

    Aww someone just can't condemn rightwing terrorism, just like Trump can't condemn white supremacy. How many times must we condemn leftwing violence before you stop using it as an excuse for rightwing violence? The gaslighting is real, go fuck yourself traitor.

      Right back atcha. Ready to condemn the violence in Portland, Seattle, and Kenosha?

      BTW, you obviously haven't read this entire thread. You sound like a professional cherry picker.

        So you ARE an incel!

        Couldn't even afford a cheap hooker in all those years? Into cuck porn and your kids aren't really yours? Or did you masturbate into a turkey baster because you couldn't let a vagina "conquer" that peepee?

      I readily recognize that it's simply wrong that the people are barred from entering The People's House. Closed sessions and assorted shitz, kept secret from the people.

      No dead cops? The worst complaint is some guy used pepper spray on the police? Oh yeah - forgot - cops can have weapons, but real people can't. It's alright for cops to tear gas people, but people can't spray back. FACISTS!!
