Let me guess -- exactly the half that aren't controlled by his buddies?
It's the Dominion voting machines they were harping on before, but I do wonder if they are less susceptible to tampering than others...
Olsen wanted a national system of hand-counted paper ballots, the sources said, a frequent Trump demand some election-security experts say would be less accurate and potentially riskier than the current system of machines with auditable paper trails that almost all cities and states use. (emphasis mine)
That's exactly why they want it.
This whole thing is a fraud. Trump and the Republicans oppose the current system because they can't rig the vote, and they want to switch to one that they can rig.
Seems like they'd be all for mail in ballots, though.
Those leave a verifiable paper trail, which makes them even harder to lose or forge.
And, worse, it's often possible for voters to check and see if their ballot was received and counted.
