@meglide Stay away from kernels then.

There's already a FL resident going to prison for trying to get in on the fraud in GA. There's fraud all over. Both parties are at the root of it, hence the big push on Kemp and Raffensberger, who're at the root of it there.

Does anyone really think Cornyn won Texas? Everyone here hates that guy. Didn't happen, yet, there he is.

I honestly think that Democrats were on board with Dominion systems because they knew they could swing certain elections their way, only for the Russians to turn that system on its head back in 2016 to get Trump in office. CISA likely set a trap for Russian interference and they didn't come through in 2020.

And I hope to live to see the day that parties in these United States are forever eliminated from our vernacular.

More conspiracies @Recalibar

Yeah unlike ballots and envelopes, the kernel stays attached to the popped portion

Sorry

There were a lot of allegations being thrown around about Russian interference with the elections system to begin with, and they're pushing a LOT of evidence forward how that could have happened today. I imagine what the fuck's his name never brought up the Dominion systems because he was a Democrat operator.

@jfindley I will sum up my views on this sh't for you with a short video. It expresses my position better than any verbal reply:

I see your music video, and raise you this one, which does the same

Didn't GA get their Dominion machines under a Republican Admin? Pretty sure they did. And I know that a few Democrats in the State did not want to spend that money on Dominion.

@jfindley nah, that is fear mongering.

not a meme

They did, though, at this point many on the Trump side including the voters themselves are hammering hard on Brian Kemp and his SOS who bought the systems to begin with.

This does not seem to be strictly a partisan issue.

Has the footage and hard drive been analyzed for authenticity? Have networks and connected devices on the segment been found free and clear of any malware and hardware back doors? If so was this an outside credentialed entity? It takes one state actor to deal with another.

This video slaps tbh

@Recalibar Im not sure if a "slap" is something good or bad, sir/maam.

The right to appoint does not imply they are required to. They may be there. Just like the observers may be there.

Observers may go behind the scenes

Right. Just trying to point out that given it was Kemp and fellow Republicans that wanted Dominion and Democrats did not definitely hurts any theory that Dems wanted Dominion to screw Trump.
This is an article from 2019. Democrats were very much against Dominion back then

They are not required to

@Recalibar Still in the dark. Its a finnish polka if that helps.

Meaning it throws down. It's dank ass shit. It's a banger.

I can't tell if Doc is young or old...

Seems like a Trogan horse, conceptually.

Texas wasn't on board with it at all. For numerous reasons.

I can appreciate the same congresswoman was railing against it back in 2019 who was now claiming that it can't happen.

Doesn’t play

Wtf is that about?

Im not sure what is the point you are trying to make. I agree with what you said that "may" doesnt mean require. And "shall be entitled" doesnt mean they have to take advantage of that entitlement.

My earlier statements simply laid out the process for accept the mail in ballots and how a lot happens before the ballots are scanned/counted.

In fact, its before the scanning/counting that things need to be watched.

Voter fills application to get a mail in ballot and mails it in.

Application is reviewed to make sure voter is eligible and signature on the application is matched with signature on file.

If matched voter is mailed ballot.

Voter fills out and signs ballot.

Voter puts ballot inside envelope and signs the oath on the outside of the envelope.

Voter mails or drops of ballot inside the envelope.

Signature on the oath on the outside of the envelope is match with signature on file.

Signature on ballot is matched with signature on envelope and one on file.

If all this matches then the ballot is set aside to later be scanned/counted.

So to me most of the security is before the actual scanning. That is not to say that there is no need to watch the scanning. And they could have watched that. But, there is no law requiring that they be there for that portion, as you pointed out.

Does anybody know if the CCP is authoritarian?

@jfindley

So, there's no functional difference when it comes to observers being allowed to watch the envelope removal vs counting?

Does anybody want to buy it's not getting the security briefing?

Has Trump declared martial law yet?

@busillis yes they are taking over. I gotta say though Jackie Chan has a pretty good life philosophy the world could adopt

What is it?

You would have to find out election mandatory requirements under the law
