Trump stokes skepticism of Colorado voting system

http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/30/politics/donald-trump-write-in-ballots/

Donald Trump for the second day in a row questioned the validity of this swing state's largely mail-in voting system, the latest instance of the Republican nominee expressing skepticism about the legitimacy of the electoral process.

Trump kicked off his rally here on Sunday by encouraging his supporters to "make sure" their ballots are properly counted, saying that he is a "skeptical person" when it comes to the state's largely vote-by-mail process. He then encouraged his supporters to get a "new ballot" in person at a local polling location....

It was unclear whether Trump was encouraging his supporters to get a new ballot even if they had already voted, which would constitute voter fraud. Trump campaign officials in Colorado did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

During a rally Saturday in the state, Trump also told his supporters that he has "real problems with ballots being sent" and suggested that the system could enable some people to vote more than once.


So now who's rigging the election?!
