From a highly informative post, Obama, Romney, and GOP Technology: A Chilling Analysis at Red Mass Group:

This post is about technology, but is written for a non-technical audience.

You may think you know what happened with the technology of the Obama and Romney campaigns because of what you read about Orca. You don’t know. This article is incredibly long. It will be worth it, and you will never look at technology and politics in the same way. If someone knows where to post or put this so that the RNC sees it, please do so.

Here are two images from the post:

That’s why I call it a “roundup” not an election. I believe each precinct was given a quota and told to meet it, no questions asked. If it meant having the same person vote several times under different names that’s good too. Maybe the techy stuff mattered, but a lot of it was just the same old voter fraud stuff they’ve used for decades.
