For a DDoS to "hinder public access to election information" mid-election with stakes this high and confidence this low would cause mayhem, more-or-less ensuring civic chaos this November. Forget a Deep State conspiracy, boogaloo script kiddies could manifest their nightmarish wish and it would only cost a few hundred bucks of rented botnet time.

The always tell you what they plan to do to you.

Is this do the election counting machines can’t get hacked?

Or is so they can be hacked? I’m confused.

So they are already making excuses for the upcoming delays in releasing voting results. Foretelling counting shutdowns like we saw in Atlanta in 2020. Problems counting absentee and Dropbox/mail-in ballots. Changing of votes totals from Trump to Harris. The steal is already underway.

Good thing we have an IT pro onboard.

The CISA press release is: "PSA: Just So You Know: DDoS Attacks Could Hinder Access to Election Information, Would Not Prevent Voting" (link).

"The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) are issuing this announcement to raise awareness that Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on election infrastructure, or adjacent infrastructure that support election operations, could hinder public access to election information but would not impact the security or integrity of election processes."

"These low-level attacks, which are expected to continue as we approach the 2024 U.S. general election, could disrupt the availability of some election-related functions, like voter look-up tools or unofficial election night reporting, during the election cycle but will not impact voting itself. Threat actors may falsely claim that DDoS attacks are indicative of a compromise related to the elections process as they seek to undermine confidence in U.S. elections. In recent years, DDoS attacks have been a popular tactic used by hacktivists and cyber criminals seeking to advance a social, political, or ideological cause."

The computers nationwide used to run voting are secure (🤞). Other computers used for voter registration or news reporting, internet forums, are not as secure. This is a business as usual warning LEO's frequently release. By itself, it is not that big a deal.

Post #8, that's a big deal. The Gateway Pundit's "We Caught Them!" series covered the 2020 steal. The Democrats are not going to stop using all the tricks that worked so well for them last time.

Elections machines aren’t allowed to be attached to the Internet so nothing bad can happen. LOL.
