One problem Cyber Nitwits had was they didn't understand the process, and how ballots were accounted for whether they were mailed out or filled out at the polling place before the election. (I walk into out town hall before the election and get an "absentee" ballot. I fill it out there and hand it to the Town clerk. It's not mailed out.)
That to me demonstrated complete incompetence for an auditor as far as how they should understand the system. How could they audit a system, when they didn't understand major parts of the information flow?
Secondly, they problems they described were procedural problems - procedures not being followed. Almost all systems you look at, especially large and complex ones, will have procedures not being followed. So, you make a recommendation that people follow the procedures.
But that doesn't necessarily mean that the ending result is incorrect. The only way that would be meaningful is if you could point to a specific error that occurred because the procedure wasn't followed. For example - if you noted that the polls warden didn't compare the detail reports to the final summary report - and so you identified a case where 1000 votes for Trump were improperly recorded to Biden. I don't think Cyber Nitwits has anything like that. They'll come up with the POTENTIAL for fraud and errors, but I don't think they wil be able to identfy a single vote that was changed.
And, anyway, Doug Logan parts his hair in the middle. The guy is obviously a goof.
I would expect that to be a very teeny minority of the "absentee ballots".

I do not think they ignored that, nor do I think it was a "major part" of the information flow.

That's not what I recall. But even so, "procedures" like pulling boxes out from under tables and running the same stacks through the machine over and over again as was done in Georgia, can result in massive election fraud.
We will see what they report tomorrow.
