this is getting embarrassing

> @stevesirag that's a good question that I've been wondering myself and whether there's a legitimate reason for it, seems possible that either party could have recruited folks to just to vote top of the ticket, voting down ballot can be more of a hassle, in addition to the candidates and there are also many bond issues, and etc. So there could have been a push to just go in and vote top of the ticket because we gotta support or oppose one candidate or another
@meglide

Another explanation: dems had a tight window of time to generate thousands of naked ballots and couldn't be bothered to fill in all ovals. There are reports of cardboard boxes of ballots being delivered during an official hiatus in the counting, along with reports that the counting actually continued in secret, with the Biden tally jumping between the hiatus and the resumption of official counting. Not that we have the hard proof of this...

no proof is what I keep seeing

Proof is hard when you remove all guardrails on the election. That by itself puts the election in 3rd world banana republic territory

OK but then how does Trump know it was the machines?

there were a lot of definitive accusations made

and we keep hopping to the next hope

without admitting with our conscious minds that the old accusations were bad

People are likely to believe whatever feeds their beliefs

I've had this sort of experience before, usually with cultish missionaries

thats what it seems like. Oh they're allowing ballots that were late? Well the guy who said that recanted when it came to the feds. The dead people that voted? Yeah none of them did and some are even still alive

so now we're on to the machines?

`Well the guy who said that recanted when it came to the feds` he didn't

that was inaccurate? reporting

AFAIK

oh yes, the fake news

come on

Veritas released the entire recording with the IG

you can listen to it yourself

Trump's tweet was based on a crap story that has been deleted.

The USPS guy did not recant. And yes there is a lisk of 10k confirmed dead voters.

turns out Project Veritas WROTE his statement

funny

that isn't unsual

affidavits are usually written by a lawyer and signed

AFAIK

@NidoGod bro you are doing the same thing

You make one statement, I prove it wrong, and you jumping to the next without acknowledging that something _stunk_ about being lied to about the first one

you proved nothing?

the news media reported he recanted

he denied it and produced a 2 hour recording of the interview

he wants more of that sweet conservative gofundme money

that is hand waving

the media lied

admit it

they had 2nd hand info from an anonymous source

and they ran with it

they got blindsided by the release of the audio

2 hours, enjoy

> @leftingfighter33 That should be pretty easy to test even without the source code of Dominion. Feed a number of ballots with pre-determined results and confirm that the machine returns that same results. For Science!!
@True

Nope, that is called black box testing and doesn't actually guarantee that they cant do a last minute software upgradate to do whatever they want.

They could also have different operating modes and only activate them during the election.

They could also have remote access(and likely do, for updates) and simply replace the binaries during the election.

You can do whatever the hell you want when your software is closed source and you only have 3 or 4 people reviewing your pull request.

Making something opensource raises the bar because niw everyone will look at your pull requests.

I would feel less comfortable commiting shitty code to the linux kernel than to my repo at work.

Why? Because everyone is watching
