> Also, I still don’t know how congress deals with electors appointed that are contested.

I don't think they can be since the Constitution clearly says it's up to each State's legislature to appoint them by the 14th of December, and if for some reason it's not clear by then they would not be counted.

That's why they had to rush through the recount in Florida during the 2000 election, and why the Supreme Court Stopped the recount, since the Florida State Legislature was about to pick its own slate of electors.

Are those Dianne Feindstein’s voting machines?

I don’t know much about these machines so I ask are they battery powered?
Because if using line voltage, data can be sent over power lines. Now that would be a backdoor...

Ok, I know this isn’t MY husband but it is difficult being married to someone who says hooey to everything you say, then a few days later change their mind but continue with the you are always wrong behavior. I hope you aren’t one of those?

This is why the counting stopped and everyone was sent home? So they could reprogram the counting machines.

I am not. We debate, disagree and reflect on the correct answer. We love one another and appreciate thoughts.

Maybe there needs to be a three month spread between elections and taking office to take into account lawsuits

Sad but true. If the elites weren't so greedy, decadent and dishonest, the system would still work. But, per John Adams, "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other".

I believe the most dangerous thing involved with the internet is that new software/firmware can be loaded but not tested before the election. The process for doing this kind of thing with full engineering would involve testing on a software bench and then testing after loading on the counting machine.

Could be done with a flash drive too, but suppose the change needed to be more significant than expected and was only discovered with the actual votes. If Trump was outperforming, then a new version would be called up over the internet because it is easier than driving it to each counting center.

I submit that there are probably several versions of the program that can scan and modify the degree of votes for Trump and Biden. We could have one version that would verify with a test batch of ballots and a second version to run with real ballots but these results would not stand up to an audit. (Hence the “glitch” referred to in Michigan.)

"If Trump was outperforming, then a new version would be called up over the internet because it is easier than driving it to each counting center."

Could that be related to the claims that some of the tabulating machines were connected to the internet?

And we almost all ways agree. But I do appreciate her contrary opinion because she is smart and has a woman’s intuition that no smart man should ignore.

Someone has probably written this already, but the first thing that popped into my head given all the concerns about Russian hacking and influence in our elections is how the hell can a voting machine even be internet capable? Get rid of the the damn machines. Vote in person on a paper ballot had have poll watchers from all parties observe a manual count of ballots. It’s not f’n rocket science. We’ve been voting for over two centuries.

Totally aside from the issue highlighted in this thread, Wayne County has another problem - WAY more registered voters than should be possible. Here’s part of an answer that I wrote to a (stupid, lying) pro-Biden moron on FB:


“By the way, if you want a specific example of a jurisdiction in which there is a HUGE discrepancy between the number of registered voters and those who SHOULD be registered voters (i.e. a far lower number), take a look at Wayne County, Michigan (in which the city of Detroit is located).

According to Wikipedia, it’s 2019 population is 1,749,343. Of that number, (again according to Wikipedia), some 25.4% are under the age of 18 (and thus ineligible to even register to vote, let alone actually vote). This brings us to a maximum theoretical number of registered voters (if EVERYONE eligible registered - which NEVER happens) of 1,305,010. That is, itself, too high because that number assumes that every adult there is a citizen which, in a county of 1.75 million people, is impossible - but let’s disregard this last fact.

So, how many registered voters ARE there in Wayne County, Michigan, according to that county’s government? 1,406,353. Yes, that’s right, there are roughly 101,000 more people registered to vote in Wayne County than even the maximum theoretical number of registered voters...and if you assume that 81% of eligible voters actually registered (which is the average for MI, but much higher than the average of 67% throughout the US), then in reality there should be only 1,044,008 registered voters in Wayne County, which is about 362,000 less than what the county claims.

So, who got mail in ballots in Michigan? Apparently ALL registered voters https://www.reuters.com/.../us-usa-election-michigan... This necessarily means that some 362,000 mail in ballots went to people who are not, in fact, legal voters - they’re either dead, or they’ve moved out of Wayne County. Do you seriously contend that this is NOT ripe for fraud, particularly in or near Detroit, which is well known as being one of the most politically corrupt cities in the country. https://citizenwells.com/.../democrat-election-fraud.../


The problem illustrated here is obviously the fact that many sets of voter rolls are hopelessly out-of-date and thus inaccurate. To the best of my knowledge, Republicans have been asked for/demanding that these rolls get swept clean every few years to avoid this problem, but the Dems are always and everywhere fighting them on this issue...and while we have always known why that is, this election smacks you right between the eyes with a 2 x 4 about why they love outdated voter rolls. Time to pass a law mandating a cleaning of voter rolls every 4 years for elections in which any candidate for federal office is to be on the ballot.

“Texas tested and shot down Dominion machines three times, twice in 2019 https://www.sos.texas.gov/elections/laws/dominion.shtml


Which, apparently, didn’t stop Texas from using those machines in 2020:

“In Texas, you’ll vote on one of these systems.
The State of Texas has selected and certified voting systems from three different vendors: Election Systems & Software (ES&S), Hart InterCivic, and Premier Election Solutions (formerly Diebold, Inc.). ****************Regardless of the system you’re using, know this: When voting in the Lone Star State, you count. Texas makes sure.*************** Following are the voting systems certified for use in Texas. (You can click on the name of each voting system to go to the manufacturer’s product description page.)

From Dominion Voting Systems, Inc. (formerly Premier Elections and Diebold, Inc.)
AccuVote® TS or TSX (formerly Diebold TSX), a DRE voting system

AccuVote®-OS, an optical scan voting system
From Election Systems & Software:
iVotronic, a DRE voting system
ES&S Model 100, an optical scan voting system
ES&S AutoMARK, a machine that also assists disabled voters to mark a paper ballot

From Hart InterCivic:
eSlate, a DRE voting system
eScan, an optical scan voting system”

[Emphasis added, mainly because I think this is utter BS - TX was either snowed, or some Dem made this decision].

In some states it is being used in certain counties, not statewide, see map http://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/3904164/posts?page=43#43
