1. Our election system is NOT too "decentralized" to allow an outcome altering hack. Per this 2017 Wharton report (p. 28), just two voting machine vendors, ES&S & Dominion, account for more than 80% of U.S. voting equipment! #ProtectOurVotes trustthevote.org/wp-content/upl…
2. This screenshot from the 2017 Wharton report shows that ES&S & Dominion account for more than 80% of U.S. voting equipment. The notion that our election system is too "decentralized" to allow an outcome altering hack is a lie.
