First, US elections are held in public places, in open rooms, in plain view of all assembled. No back rooms, no secret doors or hallways. -2

Ordinary citizens, not gov’t b'crats, serve as election officials & conduct the elex. They check in voters, confirm IDs, keep records. -3

Laws require these election officials to be Rs and Ds, drawn from lists provided by local political parties. -4

Laws also permit parties & cands to place watchers in each polling place to stand over the election offs & monitor them as they work. -5

Political parties can (and should) train their watchers so they understand how the election is supposed to be conducted. -6

Watchers can challenge the conduct of the elex by pointing out errors & irregularities to elex offs and asking to have them corrected. -7

If elex offs refuse to correct errors, party lawyers are standing by to intercede with state elex admins and courts if necessary. -8

@ashbylaw @mccanner ...which, not coincidentally, makes it very difficult to rationally address any *real problems* in the system.

@peteraidanbyrne that doesn't mean the facts shouldn't be laid out clearly for anyone looking for them.

@mccanner Absolutely agree. Didn't mean to suggest they shouldn't be.

@peteraidanbyrne i just keep thinking about 20-year-old kids who genuinely don't know and just follow their parents to rallies or somethin'

@ashbylaw @mccanner Scariest thing about "system is rigged" narrative: gives ppl license to believe, or not believe, *literally anything*...

@peteraidanbyrne @ashbylaw @mccanner The real rigging of the system is the Russian hack. A foreign gov is hacking our election & GOP luvs it

@Mindspanker2002 @peteraidanbyrne @ashbylaw @mccanner It's already been proven Hillary stole the election from Bernie.
