In @DavidPepper’s realistic fiction novel published b4 the 2016 election, a Russian oligarch steals control of Congress by stealing down-ballot races. In the book, no one notices bc studies show that very few voters notice deleted or flipped choices on voting-machine printouts.1/

David’s novel is fiction, but the studies are real. Here is the most recent one. 93% of voting machine changes or deletions—as reflected on the printouts—go unnoticed by voters. Especially true of down-ballot races. 2/ https://news.engin.umich.edu/2020/01/new-study-finds-voters-not-detecting-ballot-errors-potential-hacks/

David wrote his realistic-fiction thrillers (there are three), in part, to educate the public about the importance of STATE RACES and about real vulnerabilities. He is the chairman of @OHDems. I interviewed him here. 3/
