>>>This time, that candidate got more votes than any other Presidential candidate in history who wasn't named Obama.

>If Stein got more votes than Abe Lincoln, shouldn't she be president? Sorry but this sort of logic looks like casting around for pretext- any pretext- to try to deligitimize the properly mandated next president of the USA who was elected by popular vote in each state followed by popular electoral college vote, same as every president in history.

https://www.thenation.com/article/declassify-the-evidence-of-russian-hacking/I'm all for sharing more about what happened with the public, as much as possible without risking the life or safety of sources and without making those sources worthless.
I am amused that you're citing The Nation. It's certainly a source I trust, but absolutely left-leaning. Since you do trust The Nation, I'll ask you to dig into their archives and read some of the recent articles by Ari Berman about voter suppression. It's one of the biggest issues we face going forward. (It's quite possible that voter suppression laws and actions in several states led to this election result.)
