Did ANON UN-hack the vote? [View all]

This would explain all the last minute GOP back-tracking,
with Rove going on FOX with hair ablaze saying "THIS
CAN NOT BE RIGHT...???" .. outing himself in the process.

My pet theory of the day is that Anon quietly shined some
rays of light deep into the opaque murky e-voting circuitry,
behind the scenes, where only the world's best hackers go ..
and simply made sure that the vote-counting was accurate
and true.

This pre-election YouTube video by Anon seems to suggest
that something like this was going on behind the scenes.

They said they would if there were any shenanigans Kookaburra Nov 2012 #1

No, they said they'd turn over any evidence of a hack to the authorities. gkhouston Nov 2012 #48

I stand corrected Kookaburra Nov 2012 #52

hmmmmm...... northoftheborder Nov 2012 #2

wouldn't surprise me at all. Phx_Dem Nov 2012 #3

Either that, or they pre-programmed the "cheat" percentage and it wasn't enough. n/t gkhouston Nov 2012 #4

I truly doubt that the script kiddies MineralMan Nov 2012 #5

I doubt it too. LisaL Nov 2012 #6

So you really think that Anon was just blowing smoke here? 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #7

Yes. Absolutely. MineralMan Nov 2012 #9

This. +1000. Thumbs up. Like. chalky Nov 2012 #11

Your patronizing dismissive demeanor is noted. 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #15

That's good. MineralMan Nov 2012 #43

This helped me understand Anon's reference to monitoring the servers: gateley Nov 2012 #73

HAHAHA! bushisanidiot Nov 2012 #50

They say they'll be monitoring the servers and reporting any abnormalities to the authorities. -- gateley Nov 2012 #72

Yes, I'd seen this, and it is quite informative 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #74

Yep. I think they were bluffing. LisaL Nov 2012 #10

Anon to Rove: "We'll be monitoring your servers..." 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #16

Yeah, that was bullshit. bemildred Nov 2012 #18

In Las Vegas, the mob calls it "bagging em' up" crunch60 Nov 2012 #66

Wouldn't be a bit surprised. nt. OldDem2012 Nov 2012 #8

Nope -- Rove's dirty tricks just didn't pan out struggle4progress Nov 2012 #13

So what is your theory, as to why it "didn't pan out" for Rove. 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #17

Wouldn't at all be surprised if they played at least a small role in TPTB's failure last right. AverageJoe90 Nov 2012 #14

Well when I see Rove in handcuffs then I'll say hmmmmm bkkyosemite Nov 2012 #19

It will be interesting to see if anything surfaces during next few weeks 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #20

I really believe that's why Rove had his meltdown on Fox regarding crunch60 Nov 2012 #65

Hacking voting machines is not the same thing as DDOSing web sites toddaa Nov 2012 #21

There may be more to Anonymous than its public face starroute Nov 2012 #22

Actually, that wouldn't surprise me. n/t gkhouston Nov 2012 #47

I LOVE conspiracy theories- keep 'em comin' demhottie Nov 2012 #23

Um.....no jeff47 Nov 2012 #24

I figure if Howard Dean can do it 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #38

And if you pay attention to the demo, you'd note it requires physical access to the tabulator. jeff47 Nov 2012 #41

And if you pay attention to the Occupy/Anon Phenomenon, you'd note that "they" are everywhere nt 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #57

To those of you who doubt the vote can be (and has been) hacked... ailsagirl Nov 2012 #25

Thank you. 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #58

A friend thinks I'm crazy because I believe we Dems have been sabotaged on a number of occasions ailsagirl Nov 2012 #59

Yeah, I know 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #62

That would be the ultimate poetic justice the Hackers hack the hack UCmeNdc Nov 2012 #26

If Howard Dean can hack the vote, then anyone can. 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #37

No. nsd Nov 2012 #28

No. JoeyT Nov 2012 #29

that's must be true, rove acted like he knew something no one else did Tribetime Nov 2012 #30

Exactly! and that "something" that he knew, he could NOT bring himself to SAY on live TV nt 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #33

I still think they should investigate exits polls 5-6% off in ohio Tribetime Nov 2012 #46

I TOTALLY agree. ReThugs keep finding new ways to steal votes. 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #54

Well this is what I learned flamingdem Nov 2012 #31

Thanks. I will 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #34

That is a VERY intriguing question! dchill Nov 2012 #32

Well the bottom line is it is time to get integrity back into the voting system UCmeNdc Nov 2012 #35

If Anon did un-hack the vote machines they better cover their tracks well UCmeNdc Nov 2012 #36

Only an idiot would assume Anon is comprised solely of script kiddies. Norrin Radd Nov 2012 #51

Thank you - a voice of reason .. ahhh. nt 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #55

So, which side of the spectrum has a monopoly on tin foil now? Coyotl Nov 2012 #60

I think we're talking FULL Spectrum now dude. But hey, no worries, it was inevitable. 99th_Monkey Nov 2012 #64
