Just looked up our ballots here in Oregon. Wife and I voted 10/28, and I hand-delivered ballots same day to the drop box at city hall

All they have to do is get the ballots declared invalid because they have the wrong date on the postmark or because the signature doesn’t look good to them. They don’t have to know who each individual ballot is for … if they suppress the vote of working-class, student, and minority districts, statistically the Republican Party will have an advantage as a result.
In which case there would be a large number of rejects reported.

Well they think so of course, but there are folks out there called hackers.

Top 7 events

1. Yahoo!
Yahoo’s epic, historic data breach in 2013 compromised 3 billion people in total. The company revealed in 2017 that the accounts for every single customer during that time had been breached, including users of Tumblr and Flickr.

Altaba, what’s left of Yahoo after the company sold most of its properties to Verizon, paid $35 million last year to settle charges that it misled investors about the hack.

2. First American
First American Financial Corp., an American real estate and mortgage insurer, revealed in May 2019 that it left 900 million sensitive customer files exposed.

The trove of digital documents that could have been accessed included private information, such as Social Security numbers and bank accounts. But it’s not clear if any of the files were improperly accessed.

3. Facebook
In April, researchers discovered a vast collection of data on Facebook users was publicly exposed on Amazon’s cloud computing servers.

Two third-party Facebook (FB) app developers were found to have stored user data on Amazon’s servers in a manner that allowed it to be downloaded by the public, according to a report from UpGuard, a cybersecurity firm.

It was one of many data breaches that Facebook has announced over the years. The Federal Trade Commission announced last week a $5 billion settlement with the company over how the company lost control over massive troves of personal data and mishandled its communications with users.

4. Marriott
Marriott (MAR) said last year that someone had gained “unauthorized access” to its guest reservations system for nearly five years. Approximately 500 million guests’ information could have been accessed, which includes names, passport numbers and credit card details.

The hotel chain faces a $124 million fine for failing to protect customer data from UK regulators under Europe’s tough new privacy rules, called General new privacy rules, called General Data Protection Regulation.

5. Adult FriendFinder
Swinger website Adult FriendFinder said in 2016 that as many as 412 million users had their personal information exposed — the company’s second hack in a year.

6. Equifax
Equifax (EFX) disclosed in 2017 that personal information of as many as 143 million people was compromised. This breach was particularly alarming as Equifax (EFX) is one of the major companies that tracks credit histories of almost all Americans and sell that sensitive information to banks, credit card companies and other clients.

The company recently reached a deal to pay up to $700 million to state and federal regulators to settle probes related to the incident, the largest settlement ever paid for a data breach.

7. Capital One
A hacker named Paige Thompson is accused of breaking into a Capital One (COF) server and gaining access to 140,000 Social Security numbers, 1 million Canadian Social Insurance numbers and 80,000 bank account numbers, in addition to an undisclosed number of people’s names, addresses, credit scores, credit limits, balances and other information, according to the bank and a US Department of Justice complaint filed Monday.

In total, more than 100 million Capital One customers’ accounts could have been compromised.

Where there's a will there's away and no doubt one could be hired for a price given the ready money in Democrat campaign coffers.
The Russians hacked a number of election systems in 2020. Trump still lost.

I feel a bit lightheaded. Maybe you should drive.
Or he can work with your Trumpian and fact free election fraud bullshit.
Jack doesn't believe in (widespread) election fraud - he just realizes that making elections more secure is a good way to reassure people that the election results are believable. You seem to be opposed to that for some reason.

All they have to do is reject ballots voting for republicans while allowing questionable ballots for democrats to sail right on through.
Rejected ballots are reported. Where do you see enough rejected ballots to change the election?

Remember that absentee ballots rejected due to signature or address problems aren't opened.
So how would they know who the vote was for?

Your suggestion was crap. I suggested biometrics. Use a thumbprint on absentee envelopes.

The other way to reassure people is to use facts to demolish claims of fraud from people like you.

You don't have "facts" - you have theoreticals based on a framework. Is that framework followed 100% of the time everywhere? Who knows? You sure don't.

The voter's party affiliation.

How about we just limit the use of absentee ballots to those with a legitimate reason for not being able to vote in person?

Since there was much better participation and hardly any fraud...why make voting less convenient? Is it because more voters means republicans lose? Get better candidates.

As of tonight, 11/10, both votes UNCOUNTED.

Why is America now a Third World alsoran? What happened that we can’t even do things that we did seamlessly decades ago? Incredibly frustrating garbage.
Care to admit this "evidence" was bullshit?

I have presented facts. Where are your facts? You have none at all.
Your "facts" consist entirely of the official government position that it has everything covered and there is never any incompetence or fraud in any government process. Which is pretty typical for you - parroting the government's propaganda is what you are here for (apparently).

You completely ignore the sources of the information I have linked to. What are your sources?
