Is the US federal election process....?

Yes, it is a near complete joke.

Anyone paying attention will have seen the Project Veritas exposés of people buying votes. They will know about ballot harvesting. They will know the fraud that can be perpetrated using mail-in votes. They will remember the trial where a programmer explained how easily voting machines could be rigged and why fractional arithmetic was used to count whole numbers of votes.

They will have noticed how the politicians can never get their heads round Voter ID. Every excuse under the sun is rolled out to prevent anyone checking whether the person placing the vote is entitled to do so.

They will have seen the ballot stuffing - both physical and electronic; the superficial recounts; the shredded ballots; the ballots found in the waste bin, dumpsters, hedge bottoms, rivers etc.

If you pick just one irregularity out of all of them, unverified mail-in ballots, that could change the entire outcome of the election. If the vote tabulation machined had not lied that could change the entire outcome of the election.

The US is the highest tech banana republic in the world.

we need a uniform voting policy for ALL states so we avoid what happened in 2020

The states are trying to conduct proper elections.  States begged for more federal election funding due to the coronavirus situation. The Trump administration and Republicans in Congress refused to help. Ahead of the election Democrats also proposed more funding for the Postal Service due to the increase in mail-in ballots but Trump opposed it. 

Trump and the Republicans can't get away with ignoring the pleas from the states for help in conducting elections and then blame the states when the results turned out unfavorable to Trump. Biden will pay attention to states' election needs but he may still have to contend with a Republican Senate. Also, Trump fired his Homeland cybersecurity director after that office managed to keep out the foreign government interference, including the Russian government agents that helped Trump get elected in 2016. When the federal government actually did a good thing to help our elections, Trump punished the person responsible. Hopefully this situation will change with the new Biden administration. 

The issues are far bigger than elections. It is ineffective government of Partisanship. Election of a mentally unstable person as President is part of it.  Followers willing to appease him in light of a mass of people who latch onto conspiracy theories. The power of money (over $200 million contributed to Trump AFTER the election). The massive skew of wealth. The actions occurring today were quite predictable. People seem to purposely forget that Trump claimed election fraud after he won in 2016. His investigation found none. He lives for lawsuits to "win at all costs" and never lives up to contracts he signs. There are certainly isolated cases in voting irregularity when discussing 50 different State procedures and 150 million votes. The USA is broken in many ways. The election just displays a piece of it. 

The only banana is Trump, and if he steals the election, the USA is basically crumbled. So far, he has been ineffective in doing that, but he thrives in chaos and is creating that.

No, although the role of corporate interests and people with lots of money in dictating politics is close.  The election process itself is actually quite good, better than it ever has been, despite the many efforts of disenfranchisement from Republicans.

This last election was monitored very closely by both interested and disinterested (independent and even international) parties who have all declared that the election was fundamentally free of fraud and illegalities or chicaneries.

The only people who claim fraud are actually part of the cult who tried to perpetrate fraud, and arguably came into power in 2016 through fraud, and are promoting fraud right at this very moment. The baseless claims of fraud are the actual fraud.

Biden already admitted it was the largest voter fraud program in US History.  These people have no shame.

No, the election process is okay. It's the Banana Republicans who are undemocratic traitors.

Thanks to democrats. Yes.
