3. There's a difference between election fraud and voter fraud. Terms matter.

I'd say voter suppression could be classified as election fraud. As for voting machines being hacked or manipulated, I have my doubts.

Anyway, I've seen far too many conflate voter fraud and election fraud. When I pointed out the difference elsewhere, another poster said something like "Good luck getting the masses to tell the difference." Well, getting people to recognize the difference will be that much more difficult when even Democrats conflate the terms.
