When will this labyrinthine skullduggery ever end?

"We see evidence of pervasive fraud, but apparently calibrated to political conditions existing before recent developments shifted the political landscape."

Story

OK. Now it seems that the landslide Democratic victory was due to _insufficient_ vote rigging in favor of the Republicans.

In order to steal an election, the rigged numbers cannot deviate noticeably from exit poll numbers. Otherwise, everyone can smell the rat. So it appears that the coding for the machines was developed based on old public sentiment and, thus, old numbers.

The only solution is to have the election people tell the voting machine people, "Alright. We're taking over the machines, the network, everything. We'll have open-source software developed ourselves. If you have a problem with that, we'll imprison and/or kill you."

Open-source software is best, because it's done in the sun. No one can sneak a back door into open-source software.
