It could only be fraud.

They were tested before being installed at each precinct.

Yep, even that mysterious increase of 25,000 more ballots after all the poll centers closed.

In Pima Co. AZ when you check in and show your ID they print out your ballot and hand it to you.
Then you take it over to a “booth” and fill in the ovals to vote.
Then you walk over and put it in the tabulator. Except in my small precinct we haven’t had our own tabulator for at least 6 years, so we only have the “Box 3” option.
I think Maricopa Co. uses the same system.

I would assume shrink to fit would take into account the length and width of the paper else you get distortion. Also the marks on the printed ballot used to align the selections for the reader would be moved by shrink to fit. Therefore:

Changing the paper size in the printer would distort any ballot cast if shrink to fit was implemented.

An upsample of an image is done by pixel replication. Distortion. Weren’t those ballot selections printed using QR codes?

Kari Lake Decision In: The Court DOES NOT find clear and convincing evidence of misconduct in violation of A.R.S. § 16-672(A)(1).

Election, what election?
Put a fork in it.

[mewzilla]

Kari Lake: My Election Case provided the world with evidence that proves our elections are run outside of the law. This Judge did not rule in our favor. However, for the sake of restoring faith and honesty in our elections, I will appeal his ruling.

[gathersnomoss]

Good luck.
Not expecting a miracle.

[Jemian]

Yes, but not quickly. It requires reformatting and cannot be done on the fly by clicking a setting.

[TheBattman]

So this would be “print-on-demand” ballots - and if they resized the print - the optical reader would mis-read (or not read at all)

Plus there are easy manual ways to reduce or expand the size of a document, as well as an image of it.
