    The U.S. voting system is so porous the tally can be changed on the fly. It’s a complex patchwork run by private companies, and all connected to the Internet and susceptible to hacking. These private companies conduct elections all over the world. Any candidate can be made to win or lose any election.

    My specialty as an engineer was to analyze computer chip designs from every possible perspective in order to ensure the highest possibility of success upon manufacture. This involved the configuration and execution of many highly-expensive software programs, and then sifting through volumes of data reports looking for the proverbial needle in a haystack. Over the years one learns to synthesize large amounts of data without the brain “seizing up”.

    I took this ability for granted until an experience while serving on a jury years ago. The prosecution presented a flurry of technical evidence in support of their client. While I had one of those “holy crap!” experiences, the rest of the jury appeared dazed. Their minds were either deaf to the technicalities or just plain went TILT.

    Then the technical “hired guns” were trotted out to explain “what it all meant”. One for the prosecution and one for the defense. As you can imagine, they each argued as they were paid to do. Because, in the eyes of the jury, the language of the data was incomprehensible, the jury was forced to determine the merits of the case based on whose interpretation of the data was “more believable”.

    This is what I fear will happen with all of the statistical data that is coming forward from the 2020 election. The “holy crap!” response that all the statistical data should trigger with the public will instead turn into a verbal battle of media “hired gun” experts. That is, assuming any of this is allowed to see the light of day.

    Dreams die hard. The idea that voting is crucial to managing our large societies is carved into us from early on. Something to do with our quaint belief that we can “govern” ourselves. We can certainly organize into very complicated structures, but those structures usually prove unmanageable at best.

    I’m wondering if it isn’t time for another round of assassinations. Too many people with too much power have too much to lose by not shooting those who might depose them.

    I have a straightforward question for all Democrats and Trump haters everywhere.
    If you could dump Trump FOREVER . . . would you ?
    Well, obviously that depends on whether you like the Donald or you do not. If you don’t like him ( a lot ) and you could dump him ( forever ) then the answer to the question should be a no brainer, right ?
    So why don’t they do it?
    It would be so easy. Just call Trump’s bluff. Count the ballots and prove that not only did Joe Biden win the presidency fair and square , but also prove to the entire world (including his most ardent supporters) once and for all, that Donald Trump is both a loser and a god damned liar. It would take all of two days , max, to do that.
    So why don’t they do it ?
    I can think of a reason.
    Can you ?

    People can’t keep secrets: Oxford study uses math to show most conspiracy theories untrue

    Dr. David Grimes believes his formula for figuring this out works, and is basically this: a secret that would last over a century can be kept by no more than 125 people. By contrast, one involving 2,521 people would hardly last longer than five years.
    His work begins with an equation to test the probability of a conspiracy being either deliberately revealed by a whistleblower, or inadvertently, as a result of a mistake. The length of time and number of conspirators are entered, including various other factors, such as the conspirators being reduced in number due to things like death – both, accidental and intended. Grimes even ensured a best-case scenario for the conspirators.

    Ballot Printers Increase Capacity To Prepare For Mail Voting Surge

    One of of the biggest such vendors in the country is Runbeck Election Services. The company’s 90,000-square-foot facility in Phoenix, Ariz., is already bustling, and things are expected to get a lot busier soon.
    Ellington explained that getting ballots to the right voters is a complicated, multi-step process. States need to decide what their ballots will look like and to get approval from the U.S. Postal Service for the design of the envelopes. After those envelopes are secured, companies like Runbeck step in.

    “So I’m on the production floor looking at one of our HP printing presses and it takes a roll of paper that starts out at a thousand pounds, and then it goes through the machine, gets printed, and then gets trimmed to size,” Ellington said, adding that the machine can print about 20,000 ballots an hour.

    Standing near the printer are stacks of massive rolls of white paper that will eventually become ballots for millions of American voters. On this day, the company is producing mailings for Iowa, Nevada, Arizona and Georgia. The latter’s ballots need to be delivered quickly for Georgia’s June 9 primary, which was delayed from March due to the pandemic.
    “You’ll see the ballots being loaded, going down a conveyor belt and then inserted into an envelope,” Ellington said.

    This is one of the most sensitive parts of the process. Each ballot has a bar code that tells the machine exactly what kind of ballot it is — there can be thousands of varieties in a single election — and then determines from a database of voter registration records which person on the list should receive that particular ballot.

    “And then your name and address will be printed on the envelope once that process is complete,” said Ellington.
    “Decision-making needs to be right now,” CEO Kevin Runbeck told the U.S. Election Assistance Commission at a recent online hearing about holding an election during a pandemic. “We cannot gear up, we cannot build equipment fast enough if you wait until July to place your orders.”
    Kim Wyman, the secretary of state for Washington, which has a long history of widespread mail-in voting, also spoke about the challenges for states trying to quickly shift to a lot more absentee voting.
    “They’re going to need high-speed envelope sorters. They’re going to need tabulation equipment that can actually count ballots in a faster manner,” she warned.
    Among the other questions: Do states have their voter registration records digitized so ballots can be sent out efficiently and signatures verified? How will all those ballots be opened and counted on Election Day? Is there enough paper available to provide millions of envelopes on such short notice?

    In an argument between probability and reality, reality wins every time. Dr, Grimes is arguing probabilities, using math, and good for him. But that doesn’t really speak to reality at all. He’s an ivory tower guy, with no real world experience on how real secrets play out in a real world. To believe something as factually true when both the probabilities and the forensically evidenced realities indicate otherwise, well that would be folly. BUT, so is the reverse. To DISbelieve while the probabilities and forensic evidence are still quite inconclusive, is equally silly, especially when the stakes are high.
    Rather than do either of those ill-advised “jumps to conclusion” , why not just apply the Scientific Method? It has worked pretty well so far, and I reckon it will again.
    In other words I say count the fucking ballots again because the current numbers and explanations are not statistically believable AND there is already (i.e. even before stringent detective work) forensic evidence of ballot mishandling of sufficient magnitude to change the outcome of a close election . No need to believe anything you can’t see with your own eyes at this point.

    Right.
    Lets not fall into the trap of believing something due to our ignorance.
    Count the ballots. Count the voters. There would be no need to find somebody involved in the printing/forgery of an extra 8 million ballots to prove “funny business”.
    Like I said before, “Let the truth come out in court.”

    I’m sure we all would want to know if anything fraudulent has happened in the November 3 election. Right?

    I don’t think so. I remember listen to an amazing podcast after the 2016 election about all of the problems of the US voting system. Of course that was against a background of alleged Russian hacking into the voting machines. The podcast, which was almost like a documentary, explained all of the vulnerabilities, and also went into detail about the companies that developed the software, their connections, and the propensity of the software to malfunction (by design or otherwise). The main message was that the system is broken, it is insecure, it is vulnerable to fraud. And then after that, barely a peep for several years until the problems with the software in the Democratic primary. But there is no bipartisan effort to create a secure reliable system.

    On the whole, I think both sides like the current system because they think they can game the system better than the other party. Democrats accuse Republicans of disenfranchising voters and selectively targeting certain minority communities, and I think there is a lot of truth to that. And now Republicans accuse Democrats of ballot stuffing, and there is to my eyes a lot of truth to that. Trump Derangement Syndrome was so strong that there are an awful lot of people who would do anything — yes, anything — to make sure Trump did not win. Election integrity be damned. Does anyone doubt that for a minute?

    This will all blow over. The system will not be fixed. There will be fraud and dirty tricks again in the next election. The loser will scream fraud again. But it will blow over, and once again the system will not be fixed. Because both sides play their own games, and neither side wants an honest system.

    We had four long years of investigations based on a dossier paid for by the opposition party. The media wouldn’t shut up about it, on the flimsiness of evidence. And now they don’t want to lift a finger, censor the president, censor anyone who disagrees with them and feel they can call elections? Recount the ballots ( i didn’t vote, but god i’d love to see them discredited even more.)

    “I think both sides like the current system because they think they can game the system better than the other party. ”
    Yep!
    Both side think, but they are limited in what they can do because
    no proof of wrong doing
    plausible deniability

    Therefore, even a computer program can be fix for both or either side and be nullified

    I’m down with D Benton. That really cuts through the noise. If we start a recount right now – as all states got in EXCEPT the swing states in a mere 48 hours and as GA is doing – we can get this all straightened out with time for a dinner part before the electors are called Dec 6th. Super simple.

    Shut those deplorables up, make them sit down. If these are the results, what can they say?

    “Oxford study uses math to show most conspiracy theories untrue”

    Wow, you’re after me, ZeroSum, Oxford, Expert math, and Conspiracy Theories in ONE sentence? I guarantee whatever is said next is false.

    How many people worked on the Manhattan Project? The SR-71? Isreal’s Nukes? Pakistan’s nukes? Iran’s Nukes? Every nuclear sub worldwide in every nation? The many, many present nationwide Deep Underground Bases we definitively have? Somehow all those secrets are kept, along with the secret to Coca-Cola. They didn’t keep the secret this time either, it’s just no one will look. We had a guy in MI tweet he threw away all the Trump votes — in public. The PA AG said he would never, ever give the state to Trump — on national TV. We have two affidavits that they were back-dating postmarks. We have boarded up windows. These sort of things, “proof” even, come up CONSTANTLY. Manning screamed, Assange screamed, whistleblowers screamed and arrested, Breitbart and many other reporters died suspicious deaths, hundreds of generals, insiders spoke, they’re on alt-media vlogs speaking non-stop every day. We just dismiss it for “our side” and confirmation bias. The insiders know this. They don’t care if you speak. Gates “Not a doctor” is an authority on medicine. You, a local doctor, are nobody, NOT an authority. Shut up. Why was it so, so easy to tell Assad OPCW story was false from the first? Because some people, like reporters once did, go look for EVIDENCE, and call both sides on the phone for a statement.

    That’s the magic of the insiders. People are SO blind to ANY level of Appeal to Authority, they sit and watch Tuskegee airmen experiments then firmly deny it when they saw, when it was reported, when all evidence is for and none against. But it’s a “Logical Fallacy” for a reason: it means you’re completely, totally wrong. Take the words: “False” + “Logic”. Should do what Jimmy Dore and reporters for 200 years have done and simply assume whatever government, “authority” says is a total lie that needs to be revealed. Like McNamara, VietNam, Dominoes, WMD, Terror, the USS Maine, savage “injuns” “massacring” folks who never done wrong, right back to the baby-killing Huns…of ancient Rome. All lies. If they SAID it, it’s a lie.

    So although: why bother? Oxford exists ONLY to support “False” “Logic” and won’t listen to me, I’m not an “Authority”, the CIA is: and we’re sure they never told a lie. But pretty sure I could take all those top lies, top cases, one each year for 150 years, and prove using a napkin, his expert math is pure bull-puckey.

    16 Years Later, How the Press That Sold the Iraq War Got Away With It

    “Let’s look at WHO can print 8 million ballots AND KEEP A SECRET.”

    Um, same people who can print 20,000 fake driver’s licenses in ONE batch and have them confiscated at the border last month? Or 40 plants each printing a mere 200k ballots. You don’t have to divide and mail. A couple trucks of these are going to be filled out and located in counting basements ahead of time.

    They also have a bunch of holes. What list? We already have affidavits that people received multiple ballots, ballots for people no longer living there by 2, 4, 6 per address, 80 ballots to one apartment box, and so on. So pull 500k by one method, add 500k by another method, and after 5, 10 different lines, you’re at your 8 million. In fact, pretty sure you don’t want my account of it, a couple of lawsuits are now filed and you can go read the expert testimony.

    And these guys are now reminding me about that already revealed “decimal” tally system they’ve caught on camera all over. That was back ’16 if not before. They say they take “fractions of a vote” (Fractions of a vote? WTF?) and “Round up” to someone. (Round up? WTF?) But not only was it caught last time and not fixed, but is on camera this time. Okay, so the tally suddenly chunks 6,000 votes for Drooley. Fine, normal. However, screenshot the exact same frame and you’ll see Dopey LOST 6,000 votes when the chunk happened. So counting UP to 100% some candidate went DOWN? Clearly that’s not right. And we saw that with Jorgenson, being 5%, whatever, then – blink – 2%. All the votes vanished. A “clerical error”. 100% always in the same direction.

    So long, and so never, ever, ever, never enforce the rules or arrest anyone and I forgot all about that appalling, well-known fraud from even before 2016. But it pops up again. This needs to be the worst, most painful election ever or they won’t reform anything. Like Nixon-Kennedy when they put in the one-armed-bandit mega-lock, tank-sized voting machines in IL and NY. Oh wait: that never happened. We’ve never had voter fraud here. Oh and we had voter fraud where Russia turned the election from $10,000 in FB ads. Both. Neither. I can’t keep up.

    Don’t ask questions now, ask questions 24/7/365 for 4 years since 2016. Don’t protest now, it “destroys integrity” to double-check (huh?) but Gore should have pushed his protest and recount in 2000 and we wouldn’t have had Bush. Right. I’m dizzy.

    What was that 2016 BBC article outlining from world elections what is fair and what is a red flag? As shown we have every red flag and more on the way.

    Those charts from this article point up something else: People didn’t vote Trump. That is, in order to salt the vote and not have 238,000 votes all go 100% to Joe, they needed – and we see, the vote “tip” Blue the minute after the 3am shutdown (only in the swing states). But that means they had to push votes like 60/40 Blue and make it up on the volume. So I’d be shocked if 80% of the Trump votes after 4am were legit either. SeewhatImean?

    You made your point.
    Even a billionaire cannot succeed against the established elites
    I’m just a poor uneducated serf who will not ever be able to change our social/economic/political systems.
    More powerful men than me have failed and been dragged out of their holes and culverts.
    Just being able to read the web does not confer any power to me.
    I’ve read, that there is a woman, wearing an ankle bracelet, who own 3 multi-million houses in Vancouver, fighting extradition to the USA because she is CFO, of a subsidiairy company that facilitated banking for Iran.
    I’m just a bystander watching the circus put on by the elites.
