Opinion: Voting disinformation is here to stay, but our election system worked flawlessly The good news – and truth – from Election Day is that our voting systems did their jobs, regardless of which candidate you voted for.

The good news: the election was free and fair as our system held and worked, despite Donald Trump’s lies about it.
