One reason vote-rigging fears may have special valence this year: Sure, there hasn’t been that much vote-rigging in the past. But if avoiding nuclear war and semi-extinction is really at stake in this election, as some anti-Trumpers claim, they are almost under a moral obligation to rig the vote, no? Or even manipulate digital results, Mission Impossible style. Can’t let voters in one democracy screw it up for everyone! … The mainstream press has never so blatantly campaigned against a candidate before either, after all. …

It isn’t crazy to worry about unprecedented anti-Trump measures. It’s all hands on deck!
