Surely you realize how disingenuous this statement is? Trump's mantra of "the media is conspiring against me, the polls are all rigged, the election will be stolen from under us" is a far cry from anything we've seen in previous years. This has nothing to do with electronic voting machines. This is straight FUD in the most primal possible sense.

Trump may be saying it for the wrong reasons, but he's absolutely right that the integrity of the election is in doubt.
No, he's not. Not in the way he's saying it. Every single poll is showing him losing at this point. Many political leaders, including those in his own party, have dismissed his claims as nonsense. As he always does whenever he's embarrassed in public, he's simply laying blame for his failure on something — anything! — outside his own incompetence. Unfortunately, his core supporters lap it right up.
Saying the election is rigged with zero evidence is "saying it for the wrong reasons"
No, he absolutely is not. He is acting as a giant crybaby, and he will continue doing so after the election, with disastrous consequences.
He's absolutely not right.
It's fine to question things, but just saying "it's in doubt" with no argument is just Trump style FUD.
His statements might have some level of validity if he was criticising the use of electronic voting machines. He is not. He is instead suggesting that his supporters go to "other areas" and "see what's going on over there" - if his objection was electronic voting machines then that request would make no sense.
As we all should, since many/most electronic voting machines don't even have a paper trail. How is it that so many standard liberal positions from five or ten years ago have somehow now become ultra conservative?
