Great post.

9) All the way. I have been told that if we the people wanted to fund exit polls, we would need to become a PAC and then set up fundraising, like a kickstarter. Can anyone confirm this? I guess we should bite the bullet and go for it. What should we call our PAC? “NotRussianBots” or “TiredofLivinginaBananaRepublic” or??

Richard Charnin was the mathematician. Here is his book: https://www.amazon.com/77-Billion-One-Election-Fraud/dp/1539309371

> Behind oak-panelled doors in the House of Commons, men with cut-glass accents and gold signet rings are conspiring to murder. It's the late 1960s and homosexuality has only just been legalised, and Jeremy Thorpe, the leader of the Liberal party, has a secret he's desperate to hide. As long as Norman Scott, his beautiful, unstable lover is around, Thorpe's brilliant career is at risk. With the help of his fellow politicians, Thorpe schemes, deceives, embezzles - until he can see only one way to silence Scott for good.

> The trial of Jeremy Thorpe changed our society forever: it was the moment the British public discovered the truth about its political class. Illuminating the darkest secrets of the Establishment, the Thorpe affair revealed such breath-taking deceit and corruption in an entire section of British society that, at the time, hardly anyone dared believe it could be true.

> A Very English Scandal is an eye-opening tale of how the powerful protect their own, and an extraordinary insight into the forces that shaped modern Britain.

In contrast, Amazon refuses to delete the 1-star review for this book:

https://www.amazon.com/77-Billion-One-Election-Fraud/dp/1539309371

even though the one-star review claims they gave the score because they did not receive the book.

To rub some salt in there, I added a 5-star review (after reading the book) stating I gave such a high score to offset the BS 1-star and my review was deleted.

I know Bob Fitrakis, but I don't know all of what TrustVote.org have said, so I'll give a tentative yes to your question.

I just realized I missed something important in your first statement, that it was the Rs that did the rigging for Clinton in the primary. I must apologize. I'm pretty sure (~75% - I've read quite a lot but am not researching again for this post) that Charnin has only said the Ds rigged the D primary, not that the Rs did it.

Your next statement

> But, his theory, that Clinton tried to rig both the primary

Should have been in my first post. Charnin wrote a whole book on the D primary election fraud: 77 Billion to One: 2016 Election Fraud Paperback – October 6, 2016 by Richard Charnin (Author)

I've not checked his site regarding this GE. Charnin has contended that Rs have rigged the GE since 1988, sometimes egregiously. So I'm pretty confident he'll find R rigging this time, but again, don't know what he has said about D attempts to rig the GE.

In the run up to the election, Donald Trump repeatedly referred to this book:

https://www.amazon.com/Clintons-War-Women-Robert-Morrow/dp/152264248X

It was written by none other than the conspiracy kook Robert Morrow https://www.texastribune.org/2016/08/25/travis-county-gop-set-try-oust-morrow/ and Nixon/Reagan/Bush/Trump political "dirty trickster" Roger Stone.

Yeah, who cares . . . the election is over. But, the documentary is still worth watching to get some perspective on what happened (the Republican Party got hijacked). "Get Me Roger Stone" on Netflix.

The reviews are great:

> Deserves 0 [stars] but unfortunately not possible. What a load of utter nonsense! It's beyond my comprehension how this got published! It is based on pure fiction and has only one place: in the trash because that's what it is!

There is a book, called the CIA's Secret War in Jamaica which goes into these guys. http://www.amazon.com/Inside-CIAs-Secret-War-Jamaica/dp/1944082077

There's articles about Veciana: http://www.opednews.com/articles/Cuban-Exile-Militant-Claim-by-Andrew-Kreig-Central-Intelligence-Agency_JFK-Assassination_Oswald-141001-587.html

But in the end, I think the fact that he's not profiting from this by selling a book gives more weight to his testimony. Most former CIA guys who make claims like that go on to write books, putting doubt into their motives.
