Fact Check: Georgia Senate Masquerades Failed Treasure Hunter as Hacker and Election Security Expert
Secretary Of State of Georgia ^ | Dec 31, 2020 | Secretary Of State Georgia

Posted on 01/02/2021 7:23:36 AM PST by New Perspective

(ATLANTA)-Yesterday, during a Georgia State Senate hearing, failed treasure hunter, J. Hutton Pulitzer, or Commander Pulitzer (no record of military experience), claimed that he had “hacked” Georgia’s voting system.

Pulitzer needs to provide the data that substantiate his claims.


Which claims? The ones which are obvious and evident?

The only real things in dispute, are how long it would take to run the scans, and how deeply the ‘unconnected equipment’ was penetrated *this time*

On the other hand, the SoS should be expected to actually check without alerting the folks at the site.

Well, he is trying to make a point,

repeatedly,

has been for a while now,

Maybe it needs rewording, or some exclamation marks,

You know, to grab someone's attention, however, taking up space on the post has similar effect, or not.

I skimmed through this thread and I cannot believe the people here defending the SOS. He used a ***GA state website*** to malign a witness and the GA legislature. That is outrageous!

This is not about Pulitzer or his claims, this is about unbelievable abuse of power by SOS.

This is the same SOS who has covered up and/or ignored numerous accounts of fraud, the same SOS who fired election officials for disputing the official numbers and fired poll watchers who were whistleblowers.

What the heck? Can you imagine if Trump used whitehouse.gov to malign witnesses? They would be calling for his arrest!

They would call for more than his arrest.

They would have pictures of his head being held up with blood dripping from the severed neck area.

Maybe it is time to return the favor to these clowns that would do harm to this country, and you and your family, at the snap of a finger, for the "greater good of the commune".

Time to start establishing and posting lists of names, their e mails, and most importantly, their places of work and repose.

For protest purposes out in their front yards, naturally.

That’s not my point.

Didn’t he claim to be able to “hack” in and change votes on the fly in real-time. I am talking about “hacking” in via WiFi, Bluetooth, internet or whatever channel he used. Did he demonstrate that? Maybe he did and I am mistaken on that he didn’t.

The point is every claim made must have clear demonstrable proof attached to it that a politician would understand. (Yes I know a tall order given the intellectual levels of most politicians!)

No speculation & no theory stated during testimony unless asked. The China statement without evidence will be used to discredit his testimony. (And I thought they had “traffic evidence”!)

Everything has to be rock solid! And challenging it to force out evidence is how you do it.

You clearly have never conducted an investigation when the data and analysis is to be presented to a hostile audience.

If it was such an irrelevant interruption, why did Jovan Pulitizer bring it up?

Why? Because he was testifying to the Fraud that had taken place, was before the Georgia Senate about Fraud, and the Senate had only so much time they had allotted to hearing about the Fraud, and then they were going to shut down. No one else was listed on the agenda was going to speak on this or knew about it. Who else was going to present the fact of this discovery, preliminary as it may be, breaking just that day!

You want perfectly explored and discovered data, wrapped up in iridescent party paper with a gift ribbon tied with an elaborate bow, certified with absolute air-tight proof presented to people who would not grasp the facts or the air-tightness of the proof. . . In a limited-time five minute allotted testimony period, all presented in a bulleted slide show. Ain’t gonna happen.

Pulitzer had a presentation he only had limited time to get HIS primary point across that was important to show how BALLOTS were illegally manipulated to miscount the votes in Fulton County. There was no legitimate reason for ballots to have party differentiation in a general election where there were no party issues to be decided. Yet he found that Fulton County had printed ballots for different precincts with PARTY disparities. WHY??? What advantage would redound to anyone by doing such a printing disparity? What results could affect the count? THAT WAS FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN WHAT COULD BE PROVEN ABOUT A POSSIBLE INTERNET/CHINA CONNECTIVITY THAT NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED, BUT IS AN ASIDE TO HIS TESTIMONY! That’s mere sideshow. Your effort is to obfuscate the main point of Pulitzer’s testimony.

His testimony was enough to convince the state legislature committee to allow him do a forensic analysis of the ballots on Monday. It was a convincing testimony as were all the others. I suggest you watch the hearing. OAN will have an encore airing of it tonight.

Who knows - he has not published a report on what exactly occurred.


What it was implied they had access to is illegal to publicly release.

He described ‘man-in-the-middle’ attacks, which are a well-known thing in the IT world. It’s not a special ability. It’s something that can be done if certain precautions are not taken, and can be executed at several different levels. The capability is generic and not specific to him. He was talking about the capabilities of bad actors when certain vulnerabilities exist.

I’ll politely disagree on that.

We’re never going to agree on this issue. That’s fine.

You think internal election data transmissions are legal to disclose?

You want perfectly explored and discovered data,

No don't need perfectly exported and discovered data - just provide the raw PCAP file. Maybe in the next 10 days? 20? Otherwise, it's just speculation on his part.

I think the issue that you bring up and which Pulitzer bring up is important. Fine. You're going after it like a dig with a bone. That's to be applauded.

I'm going after an issue I think it is important. Why does that bother you so much. At FR, it's okay to not participate in groupthink - lots of different ideas and explanations. We're never going to agree - that's fine. Let's move on. Carry on!

Not just here, every conservative forum and social media....

Some people really don’t want this information to be made public, and they attack the messenger.

No, Pulitzer only pointed out that it has been demonstrated that a county official has demonstrated that the Dominion hardware/software allows the changing of votes, apparently without an audit trail, during the adjudication process. He did not testify that HE had done so. However, he pointed out that anyone with administrator access, which many persons had, could do so. . . AND that such administrator passcodes were available on the machines themselves!

Pulitzer’s testimony focused on the DIFFERENCES in the printed ballots and how those printed ballots were going to be scanned, forcing these ballots into the adjudication process in inordinate and highly unusual numbers if they were anything except DEMOCRAT ballots in heavily Democrat precincts. This is a big distinction in the ballots allowing adjudicators to modify the votes they don’t approve of, or even create “properly voted” ballots. That was what he pointed out was shown demonstrated by the county official in a YOUTUBE VIDEO where she not only switched votes, but created votes out of whole cloth or showed how easy it was to eliminate the votes of Trump or Biden voters entirely, all with no oversight at all.

IF a hacker could access a Dominion machine remotely, had an administrator name and password, they could also access the Adjudication area of that machine and do everything the County, State, or other government election official could do with every ballot in the machine. THAT WAS THE POINT of remote access.

However, that’s neither here nor there if the operator is a DEMOCRAT OPERATIVE doing it locally.

Your opponent appears to feel that the poor outnumbered “fact-checkers” of the Democrat Media are losing to those wicked “Righties”, and need all the help they can get. ;-)

Did you bother to read the headline even, of the link you provided?

GA Hearing: Jovan Pulitzer hacks Fulton County voting machine, tells about active WiFi connection

Beyond that though, the system is not supposed to be connected to the internet. His point was that they are connected to the internet, and it had to be hacked to confirm that it was connected while voting in the Senate runoff election was proceeding in real time. He said, we have a full team working on this.
