Wonder if they have the mail in ballots and e-machine scamps there too?
Nobody can trust any election going forward as electonic machines can be hacked and mail in ballots can be forged.
There needs to be full chain of custody on each vote.
The Following are Needed Voting Reforms
• Make Election Day a national holiday. Election Day voting only.
• Polls operate for 24 hours—midnight to midnight Eastern time—and open and shut simultaneously nationwide.
• Voters should not be swayed by results in states with earlier precinct closures. To minimize the influence voting, the media should be discouraged from reporting of totals, “calling” races, or reporting projections based on election day exit polls before the votes are completely tallied on election night.
• Voters must show photo ID. Only adult U.S. citizens can vote.
• Paper ballots only, which must be maintained for a physical audit trail. No electronic vote selection, or storage on USB drives.
• Full chain of custody of ballots certified by representatives of all parties.
• No ballot counting without witnesses.
• All ballots must be counted within 24 hours. Election officials who fail are held accountable.
• Totals reported may not exceed ballots cast. Hand-audit until it does (fraud vitiates everything).
• Voter rolls must be cleaned frequently and by the registration deadline: two weeks before Election Day. If officials won’t clean out the fraud, crowdsource it with public voter rolls.
• Eliminate electronic Voting Machines. There are too many unforeseen means to exploit voting machine systems, from within and without, to justify the risk of abandoning paper ballots, same-day voting, and tabulation. For the same reason businesses minimize embezzlement, they don’t give the same person control of the checkbook and responsibility for reconciling the checking statement.
• No more mass mail-in ballots. No ballot harvesting. Limit absentee ballots to the sick, infirm, the military on deployment and those who will be absent on Election Day (traveling). Must applied for in advance. We can no longer trust a system to obviously open to fraud.
Mail-in ballots defeat two of the principles of sound elections.
1) There is no secrecy of the ballot - there is no certainty that a mail-in ballot was not either bought or coerced by someone looking over the voter’s shoulder, or for that matter that it was not completed by a third party with the voter’s willing OR unwilling cooperation. The voting booth provides the privacy to eliminate that threat to the legitimacy of the election.
2) There is no verifiable chain of custody once the ballot is completed - Who did what with it after the ballot left the voter, particularly without voter ID?
BTTT!!!
