As a Democrat, I feel this election is rigged.

[Meclazine for Israel]

American politics starts with the individual.

The individual does have the right to vote like many other countries.

But unlike most other countries, the USA has divided itself right down the middle with an extremely public display of their voting preference.

I never tell anyone who I vote for in Australia as it is none of their business, and a two party state encourages only divisive and inevitably, non-friendly arguments.

So individuals in the USA display public affection for their candidate. That then leads to the desire to influence others, all the way from individuals up to media corporations (CNN and FOX).

So it's not that the US election is rigged.

It's everyone's false narrative which sounds rigged.

People are starting with

"I am Democrat" or "I am Republican".

Then no matter what information they are fed, they are either accepting or declining of that information based on whether it supports their narrative or not.

People in this election are pretty much decided and it's not going to change in the next two weeks.

Think about it if you are a Democrat. You are not going to change based on new evidence against Hillary with her 33,000 emails. It wouldn't matter.

It's interesting that you have identified the "rigged" nature of this election, but it's more the false sounding arguments which are independent of fact which is making it looked "rigged".
