      The problem isn't that it's likely the elections will be rigged or that a foreign power will hack them—but the mere suspicion is dangerous.

      At least 12 states (some are swing states) have significant use of electronic-only voting systems. Ohio has verification but it's garbage.

      It's disastrous for a democracy to not be able to fend of claims of vote rigging because we use crappy electronic systems in many states.

      Best way to counter fear-mongering is to take the oxygen out of anything shaky. Hence my op-ed: paper ballots now. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/14/opinion/campaign-stops/the-election-wont-be-rigged-but-it-could-be-hacked.html …

      I expect more talk of "rigging". Voter ID fraud is rare but our voting machines are awful. We must have paper trail. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/14/opinion/campaign-stops/the-election-wont-be-rigged-but-it-could-be-hacked.html …

      Election observers are normal. Calls to stop "crooked opponent" from "rigging" are not. It's casting doubt on loss.https://twitter.com/KatyTurNBC/status/764462377177849856 …

      Trump—who is not opening offices in Ohio—is probably not organizing real election observers. He'll fund-raise, but crucially, cast a shadow.

      As Trump talks up "rigged" elections to cast doubt on loss, it's even more urgent to use paper ballots everywhere. ➡️http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/14/opinion/campaign-stops/the-election-wont-be-rigged-but-it-could-be-hacked.html …
