A number of news organisations including CNN have had pieces on how easy it is to hack electronic voting machines and that there is a lot of vulnerability in the US voting system. So what is the astrological outlook?

On election day, there is an exact square of Neptune and Mars (this is just the icing on the cake of a number of major transits on this day).

Neptune rules voting and is currently transiting Aquarius which rules electronics and computers. Neptune is also the planet of deception and illusion, so there is the possibility that machines could be tampered with. What makes this even more of a possibility is its exact square to Mars in secretive Scorpio. This could definitely be interpreted as covert action. Scorpio also rules manipulation and power. Mercury’s entry into Scorpio on this same day could indicate some people trying to put their brain power to covering their tracks.
