'Online and vulnerable': Experts find nearly three dozen U.S. voting systems connected to internet
NBC News ^ | 01/10/2020 | Kevin Monahan, Cynthia McFadden and Didi Martinez

“We kept hearing from election officials that voting machines were never on the internet,” he said. “And we knew that wasn't true. And so we set out to try and find the voting machines to see if we could find them on the internet, and especially the back-end systems that voting machines in the precinct were connecting to to report their results.”

Skoglund and his team developed a tool that scoured the internet to see if the central computers that program voting machines and run the entire election process at the precinct level were online. Once they had identified such systems, they contacted the relevant election officials and also provided the information to reporter Kim Zetter, who published the findings in Vice’s Motherboard in August.

The three largest voting manufacturing companies — Election Systems &Software, Dominion Voting Systems and Hart InterCivic — have acknowledged they all put modems in some of their tabulators and scanners. The reason? So that unofficial election results can more quickly be relayed to the public. Those modems connect to cell phone networks, which, in turn, are connected to the internet.

But demonrats denied this time and time again. Where is that stink in’ Pelosi?
Is she hiding?
She’s the one that made sure the postal system did what it was supposed to do during the election. She cared more about meetings with the post office than she did people without money who’s businesses were shut down and people who suddenly were out of work.

I think these are the AP and Edison feeds. They need to be outlawed. Hard to calculate how many votes you need if you can’t see on TV how much your losing by.

Should have kept those huge mechanical voting booths with the curtains on them. Anything more complex than a simple scantron machine is just an opening for fraud.

It is bound to all come out eventually. Dem’s just want to pass laws before the scandal hits.

Biden’s big push since he’s been in office is to pay off his supporters.

Democrats are always Democrats first.

Being an American is way down on his list.

Since the number of states where voting tabulators of just one of the companies that had modems that could be connected to the internet was no longer certain when the article was revised in February, the authors say that they just took that statement out. They could have stated if it was suspected to be more or less than the original count of eleven.

One of the states that used a vendor with a modem was Florida. Watch for Florida to be accused of having cheated in favor of Trump. So-called journalists are very interested in investigations when there is even a tiny chance a conservative could be made to look bad.

(h/t Covenantor)

We are well on the way to the District becoming the US version of China’s “Forbidden City”.

Fully 75 % of available office rental space in Washington DC is occupied by our ruling parasites...the US govt.
US govt office rentals in the District of Columbia account for 45% of the market as of the first quarter,
followed by nonprofits, at 17% of office space, and law firms at 13%.

The numbers in the contiguous suburbs in Virginia and Maryland are staggering.

A vast breeding ground of govt, ngo, and legal workers constitutes a nearly closed
society that socialize, educates their children and intermarries within itself.

We now have a permanent Nomenklatura (people appointed to govt posts under
the infamous Soviet system), and thanks to Biden, Mandarin is the lingua franca.

That won’t be peacefully dislodged.

On every issue, libs/progs/Dems are on the side of chaos and destruction, crime and disorder.
<><> They hype the threat of white supremacy while whitewashing Islamic terrorism.
<><> They are actively engaged in erasing our history and undermining our rights.
<><> They support open borders over national security;
<><> They support sanctuary cities for criminal aliens
<><> They support abolishing ICE;
<><> They ignore the dangers to law-abiding citizens from illegal immigration;
<><> They rabidly support infanticide over the sacredness of human life;
<><> They want more power to dismantle Western civilization rather than its preservation.

What we are witnessing is Democrats and their acolytes as an invading Army waging war against a peaceful people.

Illegal aliens, cartels and terrorists flooding the border are their foot soldiers.....marching to the Ballot box.


The mask hiding the war-mongering Left’s genocidal rage slipped during the print/electronic lynching of Covington Catholic’s high school boys.

And it was frightening. Lefty lynch mobs called for assorted horrors even the most savage war machine could not envision:
<><> feeding teenage boys head-first into wood chippers,
<><> locking the boys into the school and burning the school to the ground.

The obeisant media (print, broadcast, social) unwittingly exposed the wrath of the Left’s Orwellian hate days after the factual record was corrected.

They sent their figures to Germany to count ALL the votes. That means they where connected to the net.
