hacked

Others speculated that Russians or some other groups could have hacked voting machines and switched Harris votes.

Ilya Lichtenstein pleaded guilty last year in the case involving the Bitfinex cryptocurrency exchange being hacked in 2016 and the theft of almost 120,000 bitcoin.

Among them was a claim that in the 2016 election, the Russians had backed Hillary Clinton more than they backed Trump, and that in the 2020 election, the Iranians had hacked into the servers of the pro-Trump Proud Boys militia group and sent emails to voters in three battleground states, warning them, “You will vote for Trump on Election Day, or we will come after you.”

Pam Keith, a Harris supporter in Florida, posted: “Is it possible that the machines were hacked to switch the tallies from Harris to Trump?”

He brought up a wealth of debunked conspiracies from four years ago and speculated on how this year’s election would be similarly sabotaged, including that voting machines would be hacked and extended poll hours would lead to fraud.
