Probably the most depressing part of Palast's article is near the end:

"In the end, the single biggest impediment to a full and fair recount is that 70 percent of Pennsylvania voters used what are called "Push and Pray" voting machines - Direct recording Electronic touch-screens.
Push the screen next to your choice and pray it gets recorded.
Pennsylvania is one of the only states that has yet to require some form of voter-verified paper audit trail that creates an ATM-style receipt."

No other country in the free world consistently allows presidential elections to be stolen.


I wish Palast would write about Obama's role in this bogus election.

1) Obama appointed a right-wing Republican named James Comey to be FBI Director..and if it weren't for Comey's criminal act of sending that Clinton email letter to Congressional leaders only11 days before the election,
a CLEAR violation of the Hatch Act of 1939
If it weren't for that rat bastard Comey, we'd all be discussing
President-elect Clinton now.

2) Obama's phone call to HRC early in the AM on Nov 9, before all the votes were even counted, and with Clinton leading by nearly a million votes, to "suggest that she should concede now."

THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT...THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
