All very sensational - lots of 'evidence', but I'm waiting for major
media to pick up on it...

Not much there yet.  If it can be proven, a Pulitzer story for one
media outlet or another.

The only problem, of course, is the lack of audit and accountability.
The only result (if proved true) is the complete loss of faith in any
form of electronic voting by the general public for at least the next
20 years.

Vote fraud occurred.  Not an opinion, but a historical trend dating
from the outset of democratic elections.  The goal has to be deter and
minimize.  In the end, the electoral college decides, so if there
was enough fraud to tip the balance, someone better provide plausible
and complete documentation to the electoral college soon :)
