At least it’s Open Source, available on GitHub. That’s a positive step.

Microsoft claims the majority of nation-state activity is from actors in Iran, North Korea and Russia, Noticeably absent is China. Why? Because Microsoft want to continue doing business in that country.

"Microsoft Security" is an oxymoron...

Just because it is open source doesn’t make it better!
With the open source license, a government “actor” can easily take the original source code and easily modify it to cheat.
And don’t think for a second that a bad actor like the state of California would hesitate for one second to use this for the benefit for the Democrats!

I dont believe the code they claim to be running will actually be the code that is running.
Microsoft is a private libtard run company. They have no right to just assume any mantle of “security” in official us elections.

Mixed views on this. Hopefully some sharp people will be able to keep it from being tampered with and it should stop the votes being miraculously discovered in the trunk of abandoned vehicles.

Google will have control of the results somehow. And the process allows cheating in so many ways.
Electronic voting is one of the greatest frauds ever perpetrated on the ballot box. No genuine trail exists. Paper ballots are the only way to go. Along with actually enforcing all the tried and true methods of keeping democrats from printing fake ones.

A copy of the code will be on github.
Maybe a sanitized copy. Unless every polling station has.. no wait, even that won’t work.

Simple solution to the problem:
All vote on one day.
Must provide proof of citizenship to be compared to the voting rolls.
Picture ID required.

...enable end-to-end verification of voting...
*********************************
Sadly, this would do absolutely NOTHING to verify the true identity and legitimacy at the FRONT end of the verification chain. In vote harvesting who did the actual voting...the harvestee or the harvester? Who really did the voting on absentee ballots? Is the voter a citizen? Is the voters vote being counted in the precinct of his/her actual legal residence? Has there been confirmation that this individual voter cant only a single ballot NATIONWIDE?

Forget all this, go back to paper ballots, and end all political commentary and coverage of the elections the week up to the elections and election night.
