It is an indisputable fact that many of the machines used in the elections were very easily hackable by anyone with access. Throwing out for the moment that you have chosen to be entirely ignorant of the astoundingly improbable fact that everywhere they were used the results contradicted exit polls and their margins of error (almost entirely in favor of Republicans), I ask you this:

Why are you okay with these machines given the threat to democracy they represent?

Now, I know your next argument is to play dumb about why they are a threat to democracy, so just come up with a straight answer please.

Thanks.
