someone must recognize that the electronic sending system or the vote counting machines themselves, have been hacked. That would require a recount. How do you know the machines are counting the ballots properly? You don't unless there's a recount, a hand recount of paper ballots at that. I disagree and will side with our Democrats in Congress on this one. We need stronger ballot security. Not just in Illinois, but nationwide.
