Amid accusations of massive battleground state election fraud meant to swing the Presidential race for Democrat Joe Biden, outraged voters in the 7th District of Virginia are sounding the alarm after incumbent Democrat Abigail Spanberger was propelled to victory by the discovery of nearly 15,000 early absentee votes stored on a thumb drive in the Richmond suburb of Henrico County. In a chain of events similar to those that have played out around the country, with roughly 85% of votes reported as being tallied, Republican challenger Nick Freitas, as well as President Donald Trump, led their respective races in the 7th District by a wide margin, only to see those leads evaporate the next day following the ballots apparent discovery.
Of the 14,616 votes stored on the drive, more than 70% of them broke for Spanberger, and the Democrat incumbent declared victory. She now holds a nearly 5,000 vote lead with an additional 10,000 mail-ballots remaining to be tallied. As has been seen in Pennsylvania, Virginia was still accepting mail-in votes three days post-election.
While voters statewide have begun drilling down on the thumb drive incident, calling attention to what they are pointing to as yet another example of a serious vote-counting irregularity, the Henrico County Registrar is blaming the situation on cost-saving measures, claiming that the early absentee votes were mistakenly stored on a thumb drive labeled as holding provisional ballots, because he was worried about spending $125 to properly count votes during a Presidential Election cycle.
Theyre about $125 for a little 4 gig stick, Registrar Mike Coakley told local media. Trying to save money through the county instead of buying another stick. I just grabbed the one we already had out of the provisional machine to use.
I know better now. We have funding available.

the states were given an extra $500 million to make sure elections ran smoothly.
We were told that our worries over mass distribution of mail-in ballots were irrational, that accuracy would be ensured by requiring a ‘witness’ or voter signature and a verifiable address on the ballot envelope. That voter rolls would be checked against deceased rolls. That equipment was tested and ready and workers trained. That the pandemic required such change to an election by unsolicited ballots in the name of safety.
Now we know that ballots that didn’t pass the qualification were processed anyway. And were processed beyond the dates set by the states’ legislatures. We’ve heard of workers being bullied, pizza boxes taped to windows. Of equipment moved to prevent certified watchers from observing the count and of thumb drives being reused and written over. Even the possibly of minors voting.
In the end, we may have saved a few people from getting a runny nose, but the prognosis isn’t good for the Dems or for mailed-in democracy.
Also, aren’t ‘encrypted USB drives’ just a matter of formatting and applying the proper software on the device and the USB drive? Mine is.
Well! Aren't YOU special.
Such found votes should never be counted. They are almost always fraud.
An ex-spook swamp congresswoman, What do you expect?
You should pose your query to the thread expert, miliantnutcase.
miliantnutcase works for a tribal government who bought a similar voting machine and miliantnutcase claims to know how it all works.
Yes, thats the setup. Vendors that specialize in extremely niche hardware set the price since you are stuck with an ecosystem.
militant nutcase sounds so much better.
Yes, I registered long ago and couldnt fix it.
Yep, a great example of little details that get overlooked at critical moments in life.
It must frustrate you every time you log on. Sixteen years...
Honestly forgot about until you brought it up. Thank you ;-)
The actual drive is cheap ($2.50).
The cost is in getting one that’s preformatted with 130,000 Biden “votes”.
MY summation...somebody is milking the cow HARD.
(somebody is making a LOT of money off of those machines/flash drives)
EACH machine, apparently, has it’s own INDIVIDUAL stick.
Then you also need a master to unlock the data at the other end - so does it ignore the device code or does it read it off the stick and use it as a public key?
