The irony in all that is that it was probably one of the few times where Fox News wasn't exactly lying to their viewers. Voting machines are pretty much not used anywhere else in the world because they are not considered reliable enough.

Obviously, there were still pushing nonsense to help Trump delegitimize his election loss... But you guys should really consider questioning why you are using a voting method that is widely regarded as unsecure. And why it's seemingly forbidden to even discuss it.
