In another thread, there was info (from Dominion user guide) on how to change and delete votes. Are the deleted ones still in the trail?, how are changes traced back?.
Unsure, but now we know an audit marking should be on each ballot. Also now we know why the machine has a printer function. Interestingly I have not hear the company talk about printing an audit trail, just that 'o yea there is a printer....".

I used to work with an electronic document imaging system for legal documents. One requirement for these systems is that nothing is ever deleted—ever.
When you make an update to a document, you actually make a copy and update that. You can have multiple generations of the document.
You don’t delete documents. You mark them as deleted, but they are still searchable and visible in the system.
If the Dominion system is following normal document imaging system protocols for legal documents, then you should be able to view every version of the document. Each version should be timestamped with the time of the changes and the user-id of the user that made the changes.
If not, then it’s a shitty system not worth the money anyone paid for it.
