Five races where Democrats could pull off surprise wins
The hill ^ | 11/06/2022 | Caroline Vakil

Posted on 11/06/2022 7:23:23 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Democrats are bracing for a possible red wave as the national mood has shifted and surveys increasingly show voters seeing economy and inflation as the top issues heading into the election.

But for all the doom and gloom that political watchers are forecasting for the party, Democrats could also benefit from some surprise wins in unexpected places.

"the national mood has shifted"

There they go again, acting like it's just a slight "mood shift" just like it's always a problem with their "messaging."

Yeah, it has nothing to do with what people see with their own eyes: extreme inflation, savings wiped out, wokeism everywhere, ESG everywhere, non-existent southern border, 3 to 5 million invaders walking in this year, out of control crime by urban black males, "Modern Monetary Theory" destroying our solvency, grooming our kids, CRT, antifa, BLM, totalitarianism ushered in under the COVID disguise, fraudulent elections and voting cheats all over the country, and lots more.

Nope, it's just our national monthly mood problem and it'll pass soon, too. Then people will go back to enjoying watching the Dems destroy what's left of the USA.

That’s what I thought at first too.

But maybe they know something we don’t? The only way these five races break blue is fraud. Will the Dems in, say, Maricopa county pull a rabbit out of their hats?

Yep! Surprise! More surprise boxes of questionable absentee ballots are being prepared as we speak. I will really only be surprised if that does not happen.

Well this is weird.

https://azsos.gov/elections/about-elections/voting-equipment

Components of the electronic voting system:

  1. Must be password-protected (for voting system software);
  2. May not be connected to the internet, any wireless communications device, or any external network (except for e-pollbooks);
  3. May not be used to modem election results, whether through analog, cellular, or any similar transmission;
  4. May not contain remote access software or any capability to remotely-access the system;
  5. Must match the software or firmware hash code on file with the officer in charge of elections prior to programing the election and the hash code on file with either (1) the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST); or (2) the Secretary of State at the time of certification of the electronic voting system; and
  6. Must be observed by the officer in charge of elections or a designee if the election program (or any software or firmware) is updated or modified.

May not contain remote access software or any capability to remotely-access the system;

So if they don't have the capability for remote access, why do they need the NG there to prevent cyber intrusion???

Anyone else sick of being lied to about these systems?


National Guard to Activate Cybersecurity Teams to Help with Midterm Elections in 14 States - https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4106677/posts

National Guard officials will work and receive security updates from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the key agency tasked with protecting election infrastructure against cyber threats, according to Politico.

The 14 states with teams on duty Tuesday are North Carolina, Arizona, Iowa, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Louisiana, New Mexico, New York, Washington and West Virginia.

“The decision to have teams ready for support has become a familiar one over the past few elections after the reports of Russian interference operations during the 2016 presidential election.”

You got that?

2016 - Russian hacked the election for DJT.
2020 - Most secure election ever and no machines connected to the internet.
2022 - we need the NG to protect the election from cyber attack. It’s a threat to Our Democracy.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/national-guard-activate-cybersecurity-teams-14-states-ahead-midterm-elections

Head of CISA; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jen_Easterly

Easterly was deployed to Baghdad as chief of the cryptologic services group for the National Security Agency. She also worked for NSA’s elite Tailored Access Operations.[13]

From 2009 to 2010, Easterly served on the United States Cyber Command, which she helped establish.[13] From 2010 to 2011, Easterly was a cyber advisor for the NSA stationed in Kabul. After retiring from the Army as a lieutenant colonel, she served as deputy director of the NSA for counterterrorism from May 2011 to October 2013.[14] From October 2013 to February 2016, Easterly was a special assistant to President Barack Obama and senior director for counterterrorism on the National Security Council. After the end of the Obama administration, Easterly joined Morgan Stanley as global head of the company’s cybersecurity division.[15][16]


NSA spook. Obama accolade, Morgan Stanley and then;

“An uncontroversial nominee, Easterly received general praise for her qualifications from senators and media and was unanimously confirmed after being temporarily held up for outside reasons”

Pennsylvania

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/how-vulnerable-are-pennsylvanias-electronic-voting-machines/

But Republican elections commissioner Al Schmidt sees some issues with Pennsylvania’s voting procedures. He wrote a report on voting irregularities during the 2012 election. There have been dozens of cases but only 10 prosecutions.

Schmidt says even without a paper trail, the electronic machines are safe because they do keep a digital record of votes cast. And, he points out, the individual machines are not connected to the internet.

“Our voting system has more in common with household appliance than a laptop or anything like that,” Schmidt said.

That means the machines themselves are not vulnerable to a cyberattack:


the individual machines are not connected to the internet.

That means the machines themselves are not vulnerable to a cyberattack:

But now they suddenly need the NG to protect from cyber attack?

If Dominion, USPS and John Roberts are on their game, this is quite likely.

Not necessarily.

The more elections Deep State steals, the more risk it runs of getting caught.

It might settle for stealing a few key seats.

Remember: We’re no longer a republic. Until that situation is rectified, we only win if Deep State allows it.

The Democrats will steal every election they can. BEWARE!

They have only contempt for representative government no matter what they say. What they profess is the opposite of what they believe and intend.

This is the greatest threat to the USA right now: Democrat election fraud.

They have become brazen and flagrant about fraud knowing that corrupt courts, press, et al. will cover for them.

Pray that there are enough honest and vigilant people to prevent enough of their fraud to allow the USA to continue to exist.

The puppet-masters who control top Democrats, including Biden, do not intend for the USA to continue to exist. They despise the USA. They considerate it an evil, racist, nazi nation which must be destroyed. Of greater importance, the USA and all that it represents stand in the way of their personal ambitions, primarily the accumulation of wealth and power for themselves; any ideology they might have is, of course, secondary to this.

DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO PREVENT ELECTION FRAUD!

IT WILL BE DANGEROUS TO DO SO, BUT PERSEVERE!

GODSPEED, HONEST, DECENT, BENEVOLENT AMERICANS!
MAY GOD BE WITH YOU!
AND WITH OUR BELOVED NATION!
