All US elections are rigged, and they always have been! ;-) The thing is, they are rigged from both sides, see? The side that does the most successful job at riggin' the election...which usually involves how much money they can get ahold of and how much cheatin' and false promises and shameless scaremongerin', character assassination, and gerrymanderin' they can do...wins.

Standard stuff. Only the losers will complain after the fact! The winners congratulate themselves on havin' "saved the nation" from the horrors of bein' governed by the satanic forces in the other party. Har! Har! It's good for a laugh if you don't let it depress you too much.
