When they are talking about hacking, they are talking mostly about the DNC email hack.

I don't know how anyone could possibly believe that any foreign power could hack machines which are not connected to the internet and would have to be physically approached, one by one.

If you actually know anything that would indicate that the vote is inaccurate, mention it here.
