Jill Stein asks Loretta Lynch to probe US election system

Jill Stein is asking the Justice Department to investigate the "integrity" of the U.S. electoral system to address "grave concerns" that arose from the Green Party's recount push in three swing states.
In a letter addressed to Attorney General Loretta Lynch, Stein's attorney wrote Friday of the "susceptibility to malicious interference and poor performance" found in voting machines in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania — three states won by Republican Donald Trump.
"The attempted recount process has uncovered that voting machines relied on in these states and across the country are prone to human and machine error, especially in under-resourced black and brown communities, and vulnerable to tampering and hacking," the letter reads. "The recount also found that the states' efforts to protect their systems may be insufficient, particularly in low-income communities and communities of color. Each of these grave concerns warrants federal intervention."
