Jennifer Cohn: What the Trump people like to do is take real vulnerabilities & mix them with half-truths & lies to mislead people. It's a common propaganda tactic.

Jennifer Cohn:I've been raising concerns about electronic voting machines for years. The Democrats had a plan to try to protect our elections & not one Republican supported it. They left electronic results unverified on purpose

Jennifer Cohn: Trump & other Republicans did significantly better than anyone had expected. I think the Democrats would have concerns after the polling since Trump overperformed the polls.

Jennifer Cohn: When you use electronics, it can leave room for mistakes. A clerk in MI has acknowledged that she updated a precinct where someone was left off the ballot, but it changed the format for all other precincts, too.

Jennifer Cohn: There were many things that looked implausible in FL. The Democrats had a huge Get Out the Vote campaign there but all the new votes went to Republicans.

Rick: Whenever Trump blames someone else for doing something, he's doing that same thing himself. Maybe we should look at this election from that point of view.
Jennifer Cohn: You can tell Trump isn't arguing these points in good faith because all they're talking about are the Dominion voting machines, no others.

Jennifer Cohn: There are concerns across the board--you don't just pick one vendor [of electronic voting machines] to focus on. One of the other vendors is trying to put Dominion out of business, & Trump is focusing on Dominion

Jennifer Cohn: Right before the election I wrote an article, and part of it was the necessity of a peaceful transition of power. In order to do that, both sides need to feel confident that the election results are accurate.

Jennifer Cohn: A Republican Sec'y of State in FL purged thousands of votes from the voter rolls, & the vote recount had been stopped there. That was a suspicious count, the Republicans "won," & now they want it both ways.
