Oh Hell No - this coming election

Talk about camel's nose under the tent - from Bloomberg:

Wary of Election Hacks, U.S. Urges States to Get Security Help
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is urging state and local election officials to seek assistance from the federal government to fend off cyberattacks that could be used to manipulate the results of the November presidential elections.

The agency is ready to provide any assistance to help states secure their systems, if they request it, Jeh Johnson, the secretary of homeland security, said in a statement Saturday. Threats are rising that criminals will use cyberattacks to try to disrupt the administration of U.S. elections, the agency said.

Jeh Johnson is a politically useful idiot - just not that bright. The article comntinues with this big honker of a lie:

“These challenges aren’t just in the future -- they are here today,” Johnson said in the statement. “In recent months, malicious cyber-actors have been scanning a large number of state systems, which could be a preamble to attempted intrusions. In a few cases, we have determined that malicious actors gained access to state voting-related systems.”

No, most states use voting procedures that still retain a paper trail. Ballots are cast and then read electronically. Any attempt to hack these can be found out by a spot-check. This is the job of each state's Secretary of State. The liberals want to get all balloting under one happy roof so 99% of the people can vote for the people's leader for life and the other 1% can have their entire financial records audited back to grade school.

If you want an example of how unethical these people are, check this out at Zero Hedge:

Meet The Young Virginia Democrat That Registered 19 Dead People To Vote In Virginia
Just yesterday we wrote about an FBI investigation into potential voter fraud in the critical swing state of Virginia after it was revealed that 19 dead people had recently been re-registered to vote (see "FBI Investigating More Dead People Voting In The Key Swing State Of Virginia"). While the Washington Post caught wind of the investigation, it was not known who was behind the operation...until now.

Meet, Andrew Spieles, a student at James Madison University, and apparently "Lead Organizer" for HarrisonburgVOTES. According to the Daily News-Record, Spieles confessed to re-registering 19 deceased Virginians to vote in the 2016 election cycle.

While this should come as a surprise to precisely 0 people, Spieles just happens to be Democrat who, accorded to a deleted FaceBook post, apparently recently ran for Caucus Chair of the Virginia Young Democrats.

It's too bad really, sounds like Spieles had all the right "special talents" required to be very successful politician...he just forgot the most important first rule: "Don't get caught."

More at the site - of course, these dead people are going to vote for Hillary.
