Here are a few of my suggestions to secure ballots in future elections:
* Ballot paper should be produced with security features such as a watermark, embossed, or embedded strips as found in our currency. Ballot paper can be manufactured with ultra-violet dyes during manufacture.
* Every paper ballot must be *PRE-PRINTED* (not printed at polling locations on desktop printers) and tracked and accounted for from manufacturing to being counted.
* Every paper ballot should be printed on a paper size that cannot be purchased at Office Max or other off-the-shelf suppliers. NO paper ballot should be able to be printed on a home or officer desktop printer.
* Every paper ballot should be printed with a bar code or QR code so it can be identified as unique and scanned only once. If paper ballots are scanned by optical readers it is simple and cheap to add unique optical-scan security features.
* Every paper ballot should be printed with consecutive numbers or a random alogarithm code which is verified when scanned.
* The number of ballots printed must match the number of registered voters. 10% can be printed to accommodate a surge in provisional voting or damaged paper ballots. All damaged ballots must be retained.
* Every paper ballot should be easily visually identified as a mail-in or in-person by color code and security number.
Please feel free to debate the merits of each.
I'm glad you think that's funny but I notice you offer no counter argument.
The audit must connect and validate the ballot with the voter in order to prove the fraud. Looking at ballots alone will prove nothing if the fraudulent ballots were marked and folded by hand which is the way the dems would have done it.
Now if they have the mailing envelopes and can canvas the address and connect the voter then that's a different story and the fraud WILL be exposed.
We know the commie dems stole this election. We (our side) does not need an audit as we saw it in real time with our own eyes. Furthermore math and statistics are sciences and they prove there is no possible way biden could have won. There simply aren't enough people and votes in the right places for biden to win once you take away known Trump votes.
Josh Barnett, apparently someone running for Congress in AZ, that the OP misspelled.
“it was actually Benjamin Franklin”
Maybe it was, maybe it wasn’t. Ben isn’t telling!
Yes, I got the name wrong. Sorry for the error and subsequent confusion.
No, that doesn’t sound true.
The illegal alien votes are extremely easy to identify.
The dead votes are extremely easy to identify.
The out of state votes are extremely easy to identify.
These far surpass the margin of Biden’s fake win/true loss.
And a recorded forensic audit wouldn't pick up on that? ☺
Not likely if the ballots used were real and they were marked by hand, folded up and put in a box.
C'mon, ya think a forensic audit would miss thousands of "Marked" ballots because of a fold? Really?
You go down to your voting precinct and declare proudly for whom you are voting. The clerk marks the tally sheet, and supporters of the people for whom you've voted give you a glass of beer, wine, cider or a concoction called "punch."
It was how we did things at the time of the Founding.
THIS. This this this this this. That the MSM has only been able to try and besmirch the character of the counters -- CNN's Kyung Lah was trembling with fear at the end of her agitprop interviews -- tells you the MSM hasn't been able to put anyone into Veterans Memorial Coliseum other than the pool reporters, which has amounted to less than nothing with Ryan Randazzo basically giving up, and trying to talk up the same story that yesterday's pooler @kc_haas barfed up, which is that Anthony Kern is counting ballots. BFD.
The audit was never intended to be actionable. Its intent is to determine if Maricopa’s vote count is legitimate or fraudulent. Exposure is valuable.
HBH replied:
If it turns out that McSally's Senate seat was stolen, that can be acted upon since only the state of AZ is involved.
A democrat winner of a Senate seat in the 80s or 90s was stripped of the win in Pennsylvania because of fraud, and the Senate seat was awarded to the republican.
I'm hoping that the ballots are going to reveal cheating in all the races across the county.
I believe this is why the turntable teams (see at azaudit.org) are recording both the presidential and senate votes.
They’re all good ideas.
When I ran elections in the ‘80s we had good ol’ IBM punch cards. They had their problems, like in the Gore-Bush election, but overall they sure were safer. It’s hard to “phony-up” a punch card. When I heard elections people were printing up ballots on a desktop printer, I gasped. (What could possibly go wrong?!)
I'm really not following you at all. What do you mean miss thousands of "marked" ballots? Aren't all the ballots marked, even the ones done by real voters? The question is how do you detect the difference between a real voter marking a mail in ballot with a pen and a democrat operative marking a ballot with a pen? If the dems took the time to fold the ballots then it's going to be next to impossible to tell a real voters ballot from those filled out in the back room by democrats.
That was exactly my take on the Russia colllusion hoax story. The claim was that Russian bots were spreading disinformation on Twatter, ignoring the gazillion democrat idio-bots also spreading disinformation on Twatter, which leads to a solution. You just presume everything you read on the internet is a lie until you can verify it with your own eyes, including going out and checking that the sun actually rose in the East this morning.
Good post. We have to get to the bottom of November 3, 2020 before we can move forward. It won’t change any outcome, but we need the truth.
It SHOULD change the outcome if it turns out the number of fraudulent votes exceeds the margin of victory.
What are we going to do? Say “Oh well, Trump won after all, but you guys who cheated can keep running the country...”
If you vote in a large venue and blend in you can literally walk out with the blank ballot, scan it at home, make copies, and send the scan to friends who can print them.
You go back to any location, mill about, sit at a booth pretending to fill out the ballot, and then insert it into the scanner.
Without bar codes or QR codes every ballot would be counted. If just one thousand people printed just one extra ballot they would have one thousand fraudulent ballots. Imagine this being done by a coordinated group passing out printed off-site ballots.
Ballots need to be professionally printed with security features that would immediately reject fraudulent ballots when scanned.
That few people recognize this as a problem in mind blowing to me.
How many people voted in AZ and also back home where their summer home is in Washington or Oregon etc.
Do people with multiple ballots get to vote more than once?
I have met a lot of Snowbirds...I call them Sunbirds.
AZ is very popular for that.
I bet they’re looking.
Ohdang, now I entered the speculation...
I'm glad to see people taking the mail-in ballots and ballot harvesting seriously but if each paper ballot doesn't have a unique security feature and anyone can make copies anywhere they have an office printer this is a huge opportunity for fraud.
No more deskstop-printer ballots. They must be professionally printed with security features.
I find I usually have to wait months for any valid information to appear. I never pay attention to any social media statements. As far as I am concerned the two greatest achievements of social media were Good Friday followed by the Crucifixion.
