5. Agreed on voting machines, as I had said. But not on voter suppression not being election fraud.

I think removing people from voter rolls, voter intimidation, having an insufficient number of polling sites and the like all falls under the category of election fraud. The Shelby County v. Holder decision helped enable massive suppression.

Regardless, the point is that there's a difference between voter fraud and election fraud (hacking voting machines would most definitely be an example of the latter).
