Two Georgia counties using the same electronic voting software as a Michigan county that experienced a glitch have also reported encountering glitches during the 2020 election.
Voting machines crashed in Georgia’s Spalding and Morgan Counties on Tuesday morning because of what election officials described as a “glitch.”
A Georgia election official said that a technical glitch that halted voting in the two counties was caused by a vendor uploading an update to their election machines the night before the election, according to a report by Politico.
“That is something that they don’t ever do. I’ve never seen them update anything the day before the election,” said Marcia Ridley, elections supervisor at Spalding County Board of Election.
Ridley added that she did not know what the upload contained.
The report said that the Georgia counties used software made by Dominion Voting Systems — the same software used in most Michigan counties, according to the Detroit Free Press.
Dominion Voting Systems is also used in Michigan’s Antrim County, the Detroit Free Press reported.
In Antrim County, a glitch caused thousands of Michigan ballots that were meant for Republican candidates to be wrongly counted for Democrats, according to Michigan Republican Party chairwoman Laura Cox, who added that 47 other counties in Michigan used the same software that experienced the reported glitch.
The glitch, which “caused a miscalculation of the votes” in Antrim County, was so detrimental that it had actually caused the county to flip blue in favor of Joe Biden.

Not a “glitch.” Although, I guess one could program in a “glitch.”
A glitch that always favors biden......funny that.
“Glitch” you know Trump should blame the Russians just to see lefty heads explode

A glitch, from software updated the night before the election, and the glitch only favors Biden.
Got it.
Sounds legit...
What’s with this software glitch business? Set up a damn spreadsheet and key in numbers manually. Use an old fashioned calculator and run a tape.
And, I don’t get how you have a software glitch in the first place. We are doing very simple calculations, just adding up numbers. How in the heck can there be a glitch which the software dudes never found and fixed before releasing software to be used? How can there be a glitch which only shifts votes from Republican to Democrat, but not the other way around?
Here’s where the program from the company was approved for this election.

I have been in software management. No one. Absolutely no one would do an update at that time, unless it was nefarious. No organization is that incompetent.
For us, it’s a glitch.
For them, it’s a feature.
Especially with a software suddenly installed the night before.
The article mentions that two counties state that techs arrived and uploaded a “software patch” the night before.
That’s not a bug.
It’s a feature.
We fricking need a nationwide do-over.
No bloody mail in. Voter ID. Absentees can vote provisional.
And capital punishment for voter fraud.
Hand count and verify each ballot in Milwaukee, Detroit, and the Atlanta area.

The Nancy Glitch
I wonder if anyone has a copy of the firmware that was installed on the machines just before the election?
A voting machine is not a complicated device...more complicated than the firmware for a simple device like a microwave oven but far simpler than the firmware for a smart TV.
Any competent embedded systems guy could easily rig a voting machine...it ain’t rocket science.
If I rigged one I would set it up so the original firmware would re-load into the flash just before the election ended...say the polls close at 9PM, re-load the untainted firmware at 8:45PM and wipe the modified firmware from the flash.

“Sorry, sweetheart, it was a glitch”
Isn’t it amazing, and coincidental, that all of these problems come from Milwaukee, Detroit, Philadelphia, and Atlanta?
