Jill Stein: People Walk Around With Floppy Disks to Hack Voter Machines
Washington Free Beacon ^ | December 7, 2016 | Chandler Gill

Posted on 12/08/2016 5:07:56 AM PST by kevcol

Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein told Fox News’ Neil Cavuto on Wednesday that people walk around with floppy disks in order to hack and reprogram voter machines.

Stein–who is attempting to launch election recount efforts in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin to contest Donald Trump’s victory–first explained the indicators that people looked for when a machine is suspected of being tampered with or having an error.

“So the indicators that they look for if they want to see a machine error or a foul play or tampering, you look for a couple of indicators,” she said. “So one is close race. You also look for an outcome which is the opposite of what was suggested by the polls and the exit polls.”

I’d be with Jill Stein and her floppy disks if I didn’t have a pack of teenagers.

Back in my day, real programmers had big discs.... and their girlfriends were happy about it.

Blacks have been changing what they want to be called every few years, it is hard for anyone to keep up.

Changing words is a liberal trait to muddy the water- each time the use of the old words is a reason for attack- racist, sexist, misogynist,ist, ist, ist... It is political correctness at its finest.

Most stealthy and dedicated Russian hackers use something only a few would recognize as a threat to voter integrity:

I’ve seen black & white pictures of punch cards...

I used to keep them in a drawer right next to my slide rule.

Ha! We used to use those IBM cards to mark electric meter readings down for the local power company. They were a little cumbersome in the rain or extreme cold, but they worked.

That was back in the early 1980s BTW.

I remember those. When you got a machine in the computer lab at school, you never gave it up. I used to sit at that damn machine for days at a time, coding on the fly, and compiling the program once or twice a week. Computer programming was more about physical endurance than intelligence, back in those days.

The nice thing is that if you never stop to eat or drink, you never have to get up to go to the bathroom...
