I love it when programmers call intentional bugs "features"
Yup. And I trust this and the operators are running it in good faith, with prudence, and not exploiting it. Exploits would be caught in logs, audits, and recounts anyway.
@Stygian Abyss it is not obvious how this would be picked up in an audit. the printouts are anonymous (just like the sealed ballot in the envelope). it *could* be noticed if a large proportion of ballots bring pristine (on fresh printed paper) or being marked with for example perfect circles. there are at least a few examples of witnesses that would seam to support that. The large increase in ballots that were not rejected would also tend to support this arguement.
but definitely a count on its own would not show it
No, it's not obvious, but time stamps and any process running on any computer platform can report to a log showing that 'something' happened, a scan, an index key number baked into the qvr code, or just coupled with the physical evidence that's set aside for audit purposes makes it trackable. They don't know or care the identity of a person, but that's not needed anyway for an audit of 'how many times was this ballot scanned or printed or was the printer paper changed or whatever.
@Stygian Abyss, you just advanced to level 3!
@Stygian Abyss maybe in the audit log, but again i am not sure if we have any confirmations from the counties that audit logs have been verified or if this was part of the recount. at least one operator noted that "The operator would then be able to change the votes with no trace of who did it or which ballots were changed. The system would only mark that at least one ballot in the batch was adjudicated, but “it can’t be tracked to exactly what ballot it was,” she said." Coffee County supervisor, Misty Martin
I'm also trusting that each election board, state, and decision making group that they think about security and enlist security experts to design safeguards into the process that doesn't rely solely on the machine. Color codes, blanks with index numbers, locked storage rooms, machine access codes, user biometrics, other policy should be in place.. little things that you don't know about unless you are trained and there in the room when the decisions are made and the guide books are written.
I'm probably too trusting? But then again, I'm not an insider or trained. My training deals a lot with what is possible in security though.
yes in a way you hope they do, but these are the same people who have issues maintaining an up-to-date list of voters and at the same time don't make use of federal systems to check for known felons and non-citizens. the failures in this regard are well documented
Databases are.. hard? Yeah state and local government don't have staffing resources to do it on their own, practically to do much advanced, they would have to contract out.. but I'm still hopeful that someone find the money or were handed a complete security solution and trained appropriately.
Every state using dominion had a set of features to amend or change ballots and groups of ballots and ability to fix the audit.
I do believe fixing the audit would require more skill than a typical desk side support would be capable of.
@txgho, you just advanced to level 2!
Best outcome from this fiasco should be production of a solid bassline standard. One vehicle for that could be an interstate compact outside of fed law.
Voter ID
No mail in voting with limited absentee.
No computer automation for the voter or polling locale.
"Sasse added that, to him, it looked like Paxton filed a "PR stunt rather than a lawsuit," in an attempt to gain "a pardon" from President Trump. Paxton is currently the subject of an FBI investigation for illegally using the power of his office to benefit Austin real estate developer Nate Paul." https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/pr-stunt-sasse-predicts-failure-for-texas-supreme-court-election-challenge
The whole Dominion allegations are so 2 weeks ago. None of that held any water whatsoever. No arrests... No confiscated servers by the US Army in Germany... No proof of votes being tabulated overseas... All Kraken cases dismissed and laughed out of court.
Vote switching did not happen. If would have been caught by the recounts in GA and WI... or in any of the risk limiting audits in every single state.
The biggest clue that no fraud was identified is that there are no significant arrests made of people attempting to influence the election via fraud. I am only aware of 3... A guy in PA that tried to use his dead parent's absentee ballot to vote for Trump; a guy in NC that tried to request 50 ballots from FL; and some idiot here in CA that tried to stuff 8000 votes to help his buddy win a local election.
yes because all fraud cases are tried and prosecuted in 5 week period
Your wrong ?
You’re?
Thank you grammar Gestapo.
Got you, buddy.
Yes you did.
Right...lol. They can't even do that with a Confession. 😂
I just said arrests - that does not require a prosecution. They don't have to make a case before they charge someone with a crime. There have been a few, but nothing of significance. It doesn't require that
The inJustice system is just a bad joke.
@WaffleWaffle, you just advanced to level 11!
look at the FBI, investigating one person and that can take years.
Especially when on the receiving end.
Hunter Biden????
They been sitting on Seth's laptop.
There's a difference set of laws for the hunter Biden's of the world.
Like with a rag?
Say it's not so!
Not so, the laws are just for the little people.
Just ask Trump.. firing Comey
The Bidens of the world enjoy the real freedom.
Hunter's a good boy according to the campaign press release
he should have accidently shredded it to pieces whilst tidying up
But we are talking about fraud on a scale that supposedly resulted in tens or even hundreds of thousands of votes being cast fraudulently. There must be someone they can arrest. I mean the NSA is keeping tabs on everyone. You mean Trump knowing 8 months before the election that it would be fraudulent couldn't enlist any of the Federal officers that he was sending around the country to take of demonstrators to take a look into such obvious fraud? There's not one super sleuth in the US government that could track down a single criminal that committed massive fraud?
