How dare you question the legitimacy! She just explained 25% of Maricopa's machines are down not because the machine is bad, but because the (remote hackers) entered the wrong password too many times.
If you've "worked with computers for 40 years" then you know about password lockouts. It doesn't "make no sense" it makes perfect sense, when you enter an incorrect password X number of time over a predetermined period of time, the user gets locked out. This is the basis for just about any secure environment.
All of this to say that the reasoning here is pretty dumb, one would think they would have tested this before going live.
I can only postulate as to what is actually going on here, as I do not know, so take the following with a grain of salt.
What I assume is happening here is that the tabulators that are malfunctioning are uploading that data to a live central server of some sort. The password that is failing is the authentication mechanism to that central server. This could be used for any number of things, and the local tabulators could be nothing more than dumb scanners that just send the image(s) to the central server where it is processed and the information is sent back for confirmation.
The whole situation we are living in now is absurd.
However, and considering that; the people who program these things are the definition of mediocrity and are probably at the lower end of that spectrum, as one gets at larger corporations. A scenario like the one proposed is probable
Scan ballot
Ingest ballot
Send image of ballot to central server(s)
Await response
Get response or error
6a. Positive response display voting output for confirmation.
6b. No or Negative response display Unable to read ballot
7a. Accept confirmation
7b. wait for reset from poll worker
wait for ballot to be inserted and start at step 1
I am trying to think about this from an optics point of view. No matter the cause they fucked up. What is going to look worse is the question on the tips of their tongues at the moment.
Having people take ballot boxes back to be counted centrally -or- opening up machines to reprogram or fix them on the day of tabulation. Both are bad, the latter is worse in my book, especially with people around who don't understand what is going on... what will be posted is something along the lines of "OMG I was going to put my ballot in the machine-a-majig and there was a chick who looked like a dude who had it opened up and had a laptop hooked up to it... I am sure he was flipping votes... #STOPTHESTEAL"
And yes I am convinced that the 2020 (s)election was fraudulent, and I have no doubt that this one is going to be in the same vein. Didn't stop me from voting.
They'll bring all the red area ballots to dirty machines where their people control the tabulation. They will then be adjudicated and all the red areas that had this happen will vote blue for the first time in history.
Or they'll send everyone home and start counting again in the morning, only they'll finish counting at 2 am and all 199% of the ballots will have been for Democrats. Neat!
No, They ARE cheating again, like right now, this instant, at best case it is engineered voter supression to make it so painful to vote in person that people start opting out
This is what happens when you do not arrest the people responsible for fraud in Maricopa County in 2020 then charge them with treason, convict them, and execute them.
Shouldn't be possible if the machines aren't online. Admitting that there are remote access attempts is the same as admitting the machines are connected to the internet.
If you posted this on a handheld, the device you made your post with and can carry in your pocket does more complex calculations per second than is required to tally votes with simple addition.
The only reason voting machines wouldn't work flawlessly every time is because someone wants them not to. It's 2022 and this is simple math, FFS.
No more anonymous balloting. Serial numbers on every ballot and a lookup tool for chain of custody with a photograph of the ballot so you can track it. My absentee ballot to Florida wasn't anonymous, they emailed me saying it was tabulated. No reason for this shit anymore.
the people who want to steal it have stolen it in 2020. if they have perfected the system (we will see soon), then there is no longer a future in which you "push for reform", because they will never allow politicians who will pass such legislation to actually win. you will have to fight. and not in minecraft.
That's pretty much how it's done here, accompanied by paperwork with your personal info on it that you verify verbally when you hand over ID then sign. No surprise I'm in a red area of a red state that never has election problems.
My antennae did go up because we didn't have the tear off subs on the ballot with the serial number that you also sign this year. Not sure what that was about.
You have a single vote once in 4 years and they're taking it from you and laughing. At some point they will take that vote from the wrong person, is my prediction.
True. I would say even if they were 100% accurate, corruption-proof and never glitched, they would still be worthless if enough people instinctively don’t trust machines in the process.
It’s not enough for the losing side to actually lose fairly. The losing side has to believe they lost fairly, otherwise the main benefit of the democratic process (society being able to work together peacefully and productively without animosity once the election is over) is forfeited.
When the people who screech about voter disenfranchisement at the drop of a hat are bending over backwards to assure people that their vote not being counted doesn't mean their vote isn't being counted, you know the fix is in.
After they trade the stack out for those marked for the "D".
Why not instead just count them by HAND in front of the voters at that precinct.
Oh, I forgot, that will not help the "D".
Surround the truck, and insist it be transported in front of witnesses, or better yet bring some of the 80% of machines that work to that precinct to count if you are unable to do it by hand.
I doubt that even basic security measures that were used during the 2000 punch card problem in Florida are being used, namely SEALING THE BALLOTS in a tamper proof metal container BEFORE TRANSPORT, and VERIFYING the seal number when it arrives at the central location.
So chain of custody has to be broken during this, “fix the glitch” process….? And if you don’t trust how it’s handled, let me guess… you’re a dangerous election denier the FBI has been tasked to identify and investigate…
I don’t see why the citizens of
That county can’t all agree to stand in line and conduct another vote right outside the doors and see what the totals come out to be and compare it to the “official” count. Counting ain’t hard.
Press x to doubt

I’ll only believe the outcome in Arizona when Brett Baier calls it.

Again that is just a guess.

Everyone's sick of your shitty attitude on this platform go fuck yourself
You ignorant dip shit
You're not a handshake account youre a hand job account go fuck yourself
Watch the attitude loser
Service account password?
She basically means the ballets will be swapped out then counted.
Yep, we will start counting after 7pm, is code for we will start rigging once we know how bad we are behind.
They'll bring all the red area ballots to dirty machines where their people control the tabulation. They will then be adjudicated and all the red areas that had this happen will vote blue for the first time in history.

Don't worry, they already had "early votes" in from dead people or "maskateers" that can't leave the house due to Covid.
Zero people believe that horseshit.
Yeah but I said people, not robot commies.
so they are gonna cheat again.
and are we going to do something this time? if my county cheats im going to make sure no county official ever has a goodnights sleep again.
Lol nah just keep putting those papers in boxes, trust me, satanists in power are just going to give it up willingly.
well.
my county had dems beat 6k to 3k in early voting and the highest midterm turnouts ever today
im pretty confident my county is going HARD red lol, i did my part and did a 4 hour poll watching shift!
Yes, but they haven't tabulated the dead voters yet
No, They ARE cheating again, like right now, this instant, at best case it is engineered voter supression to make it so painful to vote in person that people start opting out
thats what i said?
my county isnt cheating, i know that much
This is to help them have excuses for late night ballot dumps
Trust the same people to count your ballots as the people who were blocking poll watchers in 2020!
This is what happens when you don't arrest the people who were responsible for 2020 in Maricopa County.
This is what happens when you do not arrest the people responsible for fraud in Maricopa County in 2020 then charge them with treason, convict them, and execute them.
And in 2018, don't forget they were able to completely flip the election way after the winner was already sworn in.
Razorfist did a great video on that and how he predicted they would use the same methods en masse in 2020 (he was right, of course)
Absolute bullshit. “Glitch” my ass.
Another pede pointed out "it's a glitch due to a password being entered too many times" sounds a fuck of a lot like remote hackers
Shouldn't be possible if the machines aren't online. Admitting that there are remote access attempts is the same as admitting the machines are connected to the internet.
Yup
How hard is it to code a machine to add 1 and 1?
who wrote the code and who released the final code should be revealed
It's not.
If you posted this on a handheld, the device you made your post with and can carry in your pocket does more complex calculations per second than is required to tally votes with simple addition.
The only reason voting machines wouldn't work flawlessly every time is because someone wants them not to. It's 2022 and this is simple math, FFS.
But sir, in 2022 2+2=racist climate change hurricane.
1+1= 3 1 fish, 2 fish Blue fish, blue fish= 5 blue fish
This glitch was caused by a password being entered incorrectly too many times, aka it locked up because someone was trying to remote hack
Well are these bidens "learn to code" people? If it is, then there's your answer
No more anonymous balloting. Serial numbers on every ballot and a lookup tool for chain of custody with a photograph of the ballot so you can track it. My absentee ballot to Florida wasn't anonymous, they emailed me saying it was tabulated. No reason for this shit anymore.
it's too late

they need to be removed by all means necessary if we can't trust in a basic election
When the people who screech about voter disenfranchisement at the drop of a hat are bending over backwards to assure people that their vote not being counted doesn't mean their vote isn't being counted, you know the fix is in.
Translation- Those votes will be counted....for the dems preferred candidated....
After they trade the stack out for those marked for the "D".

They said, without evidence.
And what are the fucking odds it just happened to be Maricopa county........
Time to do what GEOTUS said: Vote then...
PROTEST PROTEST PROTEST
...and just like magic, the GLITCH turned all votes that weren't counted, into (D) votes. Amazing.
So chain of custody has to be broken during this, “fix the glitch” process….? And if you don’t trust how it’s handled, let me guess… you’re a dangerous election denier the FBI has been tasked to identify and investigate…
Hobbs sure did a fucking STELLAR job overseeing this election lmao
And they're off. And running!
I don’t see why the citizens of That county can’t all agree to stand in line and conduct another vote right outside the doors and see what the totals come out to be and compare it to the “official” count. Counting ain’t hard.
Democrats have such faith in the government
ARIZONA GET UP THERE AND FOLLOW THOSE VEHICLES AND BALLOTS!
Thank goodness CNN let me know this, I’m definitely relieved now! 🙄
