...At the end, I believe what was said about adjudicated ballots destroying the original ballot is just plain wrong. Maybe it destroys the electronic image of the original ballot within the Dominion system, but I have read before that both images are saved when a ballot is adjudicated.,..
where did you read that????the original ballot is not destroyed? where are they stored and how are they marked? were they counted in the audit?
The original ballot is never destroyed. It is evidentiary intent of the voter. These paper ballots were what was counted in the mandated hand recount audit without using any piece of the Dominion voting system. My understanding is that even when a ballot is not able to be run through the system, i.e. mutilated in some manner, then it still is preserved with the replacement ballot which is created.
