Re: Confused Brit
My theory is that of the 18 states won by Clinton, 8 of them are using Diebold voting equipment,
Not enough to create a Dem landslide, but perhaps just enough to surreptitiously insert an extra 200,000 blue votes or so (her current popular vote lead) without drawing too much attention.
Based on her history (receiving debate questions in advance, for example) and this campaign, that would be very true to form. Her early concession might even be a calculated or forced move to prevent voter fraud stories from becoming too widely publicized (or part of a deal).
Remember that vote rigging is an American tradition and the Clintons are as crooked as the day is long. Obama would most likely prefer to keep his spotless legacy. Exposure of Chicago style vote fraud in a national election would not help.
And Hillary did take an astounding 90% + of votes in places like Washington DC (Diebold). However, much of the rest of America voted her out and chose Trump. Looks as though the decentralized, indirect electoral vote system still works, particularly when poll watchers do their thing.
And as old Abe said "you can fool some of the people some of the time...."
