(Washington, DC) – Nancy Pelosi is drawing attention after warning that electronic voting technology could be manipulated to produce a false count.
Her comment is notable because Democrats have spent years pushing back hard against Republican claims about voting machines and election manipulation.
Pelosi’s remarks are likely to be seized on by conservatives who argue that concerns about election technology should not be dismissed depending on which party raises them.
The broader issue is whether voting systems are secure, transparent and trusted by the public.
