Theese questions are never simple - there are such a lot of details, reasons back in in history affecting things today and so on. When this is mixed up with patriotism funny things happen.

No, I don't think it was rigged. Neither do I think it's such a great democracy when you can become president while the competitor gets the majority of the votes. (btw: The old machines were sold for $1 each later...)
Lets face it. We're all doing errorneous things. In Florida they can't get the elections right and when Fidel offered to help out with the counting I seriously think they should have invited him.... 
....we're not a true democracy..never have been...probably never will be.
We are a republic.
