Gee, Tucker, then why did you belittle Sidney Powell the way you did?
Not watching. Tucker’s overlords just trying to get viewers back. Too late.
23 Nov: Inside Sources: Elections Watchdog Says Wisconsin Refused to Warn Clerks About Flawed Dominion ICE Voting Machines
by Margaret Menge, freelance journalist who’s written for the Columbia Journalism Review, New York Observer, Miami Herald, The American Conservative
The head of the Wisconsin Elections Commission said last Thursday that the state looks forward to demonstrating the “strength, security, integrity and transparency” of its election system in the recounts in Dane and Milwaukee counties, which began Friday.
But Wisconsin’s election system has serious flaws, according to independent elections watchdog Karen McKim, who tracks how the state conducts elections and posts on the website WisconsinElectionIntegrity.org. She gives the state a “C” overall.
One of the biggest issues, she says, is the voting machines.
McKim, a former auditor with the state, says despite her urgings, the Wisconsin Elections Commission has refused to tell municipal clerks about serious security flaws with Dominion ImageCast Evolution (ICE) voting machines, which are used in 13 of the state’s 72 counties.
“In a rational system, that machine would never have been certified by anyone, ever,” says McKim.
The Dominion ICE machines were approved by the state of Wisconsin in the summer of 2015, with employees of the Government Accountability Board assuring the board members that the machines can run elections that are “transparent, fair and secure.”
But cybersecurity experts consider them some of the worst voting machines on the market in terms of security.
In 2018, Andrew Appel, a Princeton University professor of computer science and one of the top experts in the country on voting machine security, wrote that the Dominion ICE has a “serious flaw,” explaining that after a voter marks the ballot and reviews it, the voting machine can print more votes on it.
“This appears to be an elementary security-design mistake,” he wrote...
McKim says Dominion salespeople have been selling municipal clerks in the northern part of the state on the machines, even with the widely publicized flaws, and that citizens have called her asking for her help.
“I don’t have the resources to educate all the clerks about the national security concerns about the Dominion ICE or the fact that bills have been introduced in Congress that would make them illegal,” she said, “and so I called the Elections Commission and I said, to their lead voting machine staff person, I said, ‘Well, you tell them. C’mon. Send them a memo saying here’s background information on the machines that are available to you. Know that the Dominion ICE has this security flaw, you know? Just tell them the facts. You don’t even have to make recommendations.’ And they would not.”...
Among the 13 counties in the state that use Dominion ICE machines, three are in the Milwaukee area — Racine, Washington and Ozaukee counties. Trump won all three, but Biden saw large increases in vote totals over Hillary Clinton’s four years earlier in all three counties.
In Washington County, Biden got 27 percent more votes than Clinton did in 2016. In Ozaukee County, he got 31 percent more, and in Racine County he got 18 percent more. Trump also saw his vote totals increase over 2016 in all three counties.
Dane and Milwaukee counties, which are recounting more than 800,000 ballots this week to fulfill a request by the Trump campaign, both use a machine from Dominion’s competitor, Election Systems & Software (ES&S), called the DS200.
ES&S voting machines are often outfitted with modems, making them hackable, as the New York Times reported in 2018. But it’s Dominion that’s been in the news most since the Nov. 3 election, with attorney Sydney Powell telling Howie Carr on Newsmax TV on Friday that she has more evidence of fraud involving Dominion machines than she “can say grace over,” that the fraud was “very widespread, very deliberate” and “very well-funded” and involved “roughly 7 million votes” moved from Biden to Trump...
Meanwhile, Wisconsin clerks are doing voting machine audits this week, hand-counting paper ballots from 5 percent of wards in the state.
According to Wisconsin Elections Commission member Dean Knudson, at least 11 randomly selected Dominion machines will be audited statewide.
In addition to the Dominion ICE machines, several Wisconsin counties use Sequoia voting machines. Sequoia was purchased by Dominion Voting Systems in 2010.
It’s unclear what will happen if audits reveal an issue with voting machine counts and whether it will lead to a larger-scale audit where all paper ballots in a municipality or county are hand-counted...

Won FL and OH in a huge way but lost.
Yeah ok
Nice try Sucker (although true) I’m still not watching.
Yeah, and who is going to do anything about it?
The terms of his employment dictated that he do as told.
Good work, Tucker.
Of course, it’s too late.
I’m still not watching you or FoxNews.
Ever
Too late for Tucked In.
Just an attempt to get viewers back.
This year there were no secrets involved.
Tucker works for the enemy. I will not view him.
Agree! All talk no action from anyone! And would like to know “Where is the GOP”, “Where is Barr?”, etc. I know they do not have a spine!
Yep.
Tucker is running behind the parade now.
I am glad he has come around, just in case there are uniformed people that still watch Fox. But as the numbers have shown, Fox’s ratings have plummeted.
I think this is what happened: A bunch of angry people flooded Tucker Carlson’s social media with evidence - affidavits, mathematical analysis, and more. It tipped past the “pretend point” and he could no longer maintain his boss’s fictional narrative of “no evidence.” It’s too late to get most of his viewers back but maybe it’s enough to keep from sinking to the bottom.
I agree, Abbeville Conservative
Not watching. Tucker’s overlords just trying to get viewers back. Too late.
“The top-ranking cable news host...”
Not what I heard
Chrome was blocking Newsmax TV this morning and I found out the Microsoft Store has a Newsmax TV app free. Works good!
