The ballot adjudication process varies state by state, it typically involves a small panel of people reviewing a ballot to determine either the voter’s intent or whether the ballot can be counted at all based on whether the voter was eligible to cast it.
Election officials have been stressing that adjudication – like counting every ballot received by election day – is part of the normal election process and is not out of the ordinary. However, the background process is now thrust to the forefront thanks to the razor-thin margins separating the presidential candidates, Joe Biden and President Donald Trump, in multiple battleground states
*ADJUDICATION* is a Dominion override function that is meant for a marginal number of ballots
Fulton County adjudicated 106,000:
Gwinnett County adjudicated 80,000: (Image)
Maricopa County adjudicated 28,000:

Yesterday videos from a demonstration of Dominion’s adjudication process surfaced and raised more question than answers: The videos were allegedly taken in Douglas, Ga, Coffee County. Videos below:
Full videos YouTube links!
Part one: Link
Part two:
Now we still can’t confirm the validity of these videos that’s why we’ve placed “allegedly” in our headline but if proven to be real, this is what they have called “Fractional Voting”. There were videos about it. People have testified about it.
At least one person in their affidavit said they were instructed to run ballots through 8-10 times.
Officially Dominion has answered this about ballot adjudication:
CAN DOMINION EMPLOYEES SWITCH VOTES DURING BALLOT ADJUDICATION? No, the canvass process exists to allow election officials to validate and count ballots that were unable to be counted on Election Day because they needed additional adjudication. Dominion employees do not have access to this adjudication system, nor do they operate it. All states require bipartisan/multi-person teams in order to adjudicate ballots in accordance with the law.
There are two sides to this story.
What do you think?

Dominion Voting Systems....DVS......DEVIOUS!
It is perfectly fine to scan a batch multiple times.....IF you first delete the record of the prior scan and verify its deletion PRIOR to rescanning. (this is sometimes necessary when alignment errors generate an "unreadable" notification.)
No indication that any such deletion was performed here.
Notably, the adjudication process, at least in Georgia, appears to be the ONLY way that “pristine” and “uncreased” provisional ballots make their way into the count.
The machine marks a new ballot to be added to the count. And that’s what was recounted as well.
Is it really possible to run the same ballot multiple times and have it count in the system? I assumed all ballots had barcodes that would prevent duplicate counting.. but I’m no longer sure.
There are detailed instructions on how to adjudicate a vote.
IF a conclusion is not agreed upon, NO VOTE is counted.
“Is it really possible to run the same ballot multiple times and have it count in the system?”
Yes, the demo in the video show you can run the same ballot multiple times, and you can change the voter’s vote.
How did the GA recount “pass” if the same ballots were run through the counters multiple times? Trump just tweeted that the late night GA ballots appeared to be run through twice.
Just read a Dominion operators manual. It tells you that you can do all these things. Now you have a video of a lady doing so in front of county officials. Allegedly my ass.
“How did the GA recount “pass” if the same ballots were run through the counters multiple times?”
I did not run the recount so I do not know how they conducted the recount.
A better question did they use the same people in charge and accused of conducting the steal to do the recount?
If they did I bet they would be pretty close to the orginal count. The only way to get a true recount is to have a physical recount conducted with a signature match.
While doing the manual recount they need to set assign all the single vote ballets to see if they were mass produce. There was a report of a large number of single vote ballets. They also need to do the same for the reported pristine identical ballets that have no folds with the perfect marks.
I am of the opinion that each and every ballot needs to contain a unique code (QRcode, barcode, serial number, etc) that identifies that specific ballot. Once the ballot has been scanned, the system needs to prevent any further scanning of that ballot.
Printing of ballots should be added to the current currency / forgery laws.
Importing of ballots for an election should be a crime and only US printers should be used.
All ballots should be printed on a digital printer that embeds / water marks the serial number of the printer on the ballot (already in place for home digital printers).
All ballots should be tracked by batch number and serial number, from order, to printing, to shipping, to use in voting.
Ideally, the voter would be able to record their ballots serial number to verify that their ballot was counted correctly.
Election interference should be added to the list of crimes that can trigger RICO.
If the machine can rank votes by percentages, change them to the chosen candidate, and allow foreign agents to manipulate the data, surely they can ignore barcodes p- and maybe assign unused ones to the “snapshots” they take to be used as actual tallies.

There were reports the SOS instructed if there were discrepancies between
Recount numbers and original count to disregard recount numbers and report the original count numbers.
Ware County is an example. The hand recount did not match the machine count so they disregarded the hand count.
Obviously the correct course would have been to repeat the hand count
In an honest election.
Here's a thought: when running ballots through a tabulator, only take full pictures of the ballot. No counting at this time. The pictures are then transferred (say by thumb drives) and the aggregating system analyzes the ballot images to determine the vote. Separate the capture process from the counting process.
That means you have 3,000 (give or take) systems counting the votes, instead of potentially hundreds of thousands of systems.
No trash cans, no shredders.
Chain of custody of all thumb drives, saved after the election. DVDs or BluRay ROM available of all the ballot images, at reasonable cost, to the public.
The most basic recount would be to process the images again. A deeper recount would require the ballots be scanned again, and the resulting counts compared. A hand count could be requested, but only upon providing evidence showing the need. Proper pre-election work, by officials and the public, should eliminate the need for hand recounts.
Direct entry? Use the existing ballot printers so the voter can verify his or her vote. Restrict direct entry to disabled people -- everyone else vote on paper ballots using pens. (Clearly posted at each election site: NO MARKERS LIKE SHARPIES). After the polls close, the paper reports would be scanned and the images counted by one system per county, just like the paper ballots are counted. No counters in the direct entry device.
There would need to be strict controls on the software used to count the ballots. Perhaps even publish the source code in a public place as well as sample ballot images, so enterprising people like me can build the software, create test ballots, and see what happens.
The usual improvements: voter ID, no mail-in ballots, all ballots received by 9 pm on Election Day, very limited absentee ballots (received no later than 9 pm Election Day), proper signature verification on mailed votes, no reports on vote totals until after midnight the day after Election Day -- to prevent after-the-fact ballot stuffing.
And, how to prevent COVID-19? People can request a blank ballot, vote at home, then bring the filled-in ballot to the polling place. Once the voter has been verified, the voter can hand the ballot over. In and out in minutes, if done properly.
How to speed this up? Many election boards send a voter registration card to each voter. Put a bar code on the card. The voter would present the card and ID. Sign the pad. Hand in the ballot. Out the door.
Quick, and almost hands-free.
How did the GA recount “pass” if the same ballots were run through the counters multiple times?
Absentee ballots ENVELOPES should not id what party it contains.
My reading of the Texas documents on why they rejected the Dominion systems, includes that the images they captured were often unreadable, which made no sense to the tech evaluators.
There was a video here a couple days ago that showed a worker seated at her desk who was repeatedly scanning the same batch of ballots over and over...
voter’s intent ?
The ballot should be easily marked so the democrats cannot cheat.
