Still by far the best thing would be a mass movement imposing the removal of voting machines involved in 2020 (all brands) and go back to late 20th C methods. If Kerry won 2004 it means more than one 21st C election was ruined by voting machines.
At a bare minimum, disallow any electronic voting system that uses QR codes to record and count the votes.

That is actually currently illegal in many states, including Georgia before 2020. No one cares that Dominion's system is illegal under state laws though.

This year, the seats of outgoing Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf, a Democrat, and outgoing Sen. Pat Toomey, a Republican, are up for grabs in the Nov. 8 elections.

Here's a look at three key lawsuits brought in September in the commonwealth.
Quote:

Pennsylvania essentially has a one-voter, one-ballot rule, meaning election law requires mailed and absentee ballots to be returned either by mail or in person by the voter to whom it belongs.
State law stipulates that each voter is allowed to place only his or her own ballot in a drop box, not the ballots of other voters.

However, according to the America First Legal Foundation, a security camera captured more than 330 individuals depositing multiple ballots into drop boxes during the state's primary election in June. Under Pennsylvania law, this would make the ballots void and invalid, the legal foundation notes.

The America First Legal Foundation sued the Chester County Board of Elections on behalf of four county residents, to compel immediate compliance with Pennsylvania law governing ballot drop boxes.
Chester County has 13 authorized ballot drop boxes. County officials monitored 11 of them to ensure compliance with the election code. But that left two drop boxes that were not monitored and were accessible around the clock, day after day, according to the plaintiffs complaint.

The legal foundation is asking the court to require the county election board to see to it that all drop boxes are monitored in person to ensure that they are used by only one person at a time delivering his or her own ballot. Doing so would fulfill the election board's statutory duty to ensure that void and invalid ballots aren't commingled and counted in future elections, the foundation argues.
Quote:

This month, the Republican National Committee joined a lawsuit brought by 12 Pennsylvania voters against the state for not having a uniform statewide standard to "cure" a defective absentee ballot and thus conducting "illegal and unfair" ballot counts.

Some Pennsylvania counties allow for ballot curing, the practice of allowing election workers to try to determine a voter's intent if an absentee ballot is unclear. Examples include when two candidates' names seemingly are marked, a ballot is ripped, or a candidate's name is only marked vaguely.
The lawsuit contends this isn't allowed under Pennsylvania law, and that curing is a secretive process.
Quote:

Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin found more than 288 people put more than one ballot into a drop box during the November 2021 election.


An investigation determined that 3,695 ballots were deposited in drop boxes, even though only 2,756 persons dropped ballots into those same boxes.

The Lehigh County Board of Elections agreed to stop using ballot drop boxes eight days after a lawsuit was filed by America First Legal Foundation.

The legal foundation sued to compel the Lehigh County Board of Elections to monitor the county's drop boxes to ensure that a voter, or a legally authorized representative, placed only his or her own ballot \into the drop box.

Under a court-approved agreement, the county also agreed to refrain from accepting certain mailed and absentee ballots until a court hearing is held Oct. 7 on the legal foundation's motion for a preliminary injunction.

True or False. In Michigan postal workers are allowed and/or required to deposit ballots directly in to drop boxes? True

Quote:

USPS workers are required to expedite the return of election mail either by delivery to the clerk's office or drop box.

The Gateway Pundit blog post lies about this fact. True.

I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around why postal workers are using drop boxes. They collect mail from individual mailboxes, or the corner mail drop box, or other places. Do they then take the time to sort the mail and pull out the ballots, drive to a drop box an deposit them? Why not take them to the post office, like they would normally, and let them sort the mail. In the link, the election officials are required to coordinate with the post office to make sure ballots that arrive on time are collected.

This seems like a lot of needless work for a postal worker.

The videos show post offices that also have dropboxes that are picked up daily by election workers. It's less work, instead of sorting, routing, and delivering. Separate election mail and drop out front.

Whether postal workers deliver ballots to the election department address, or put in a dropbox, they end up at the same place.

Cross and Moncla say, "our work indicates the precinct scanners in Georgia have not counted ballots accurately since they were first installed" in 2020.
The Election Oversight Group, whose stated mission is "to protect & secure our elections," have filed an "Official Notice and Demand for Emergency Review" with Georgia's State Election Board that seeks intervention in the 2022 mid-term elections.
Moncla says, "The anomalies have not only been identified by locating the same errors in common with the Williamson incident but have also been realized by the discovery of ballots having been scanned but not included in the tabulator results."
  • Dekalb County, 2022 Primaries- Hand-count revealed approximately 2800 ballots that had been scanned but not included in the tabulator results.
  • Gwinnett County, 2020 General Election- Approximately 1600 ballots were scanned but not included in the tabulator results.
  • Floyd County, 2020 General Election- Hand-count found approximately 2800 ballots that were scanned but not included.
Additionally, Fulton County, Pennsylvania, filed a lawsuit against Dominion Voting Systems last month for a "breach of contract."

The county alleges that their log files show "an external IP address" located in Quebec, Canada, and that an unauthorized "python script" had been installed after the certification date.

In May, CISA, an arm of the Department of Homeland Security, disclosed nine vulnerabilities that "an attacker could leverage to install malicious code" on the Dominion ImageCast X machines that are used in 16 states, including; Williamson County, Tennessee, Fulton County, Pennsylvania, and in every county in Georgia.

"Nearly as stunning as the EAC's admission that the direct cause of the anomaly was inconclusive is the statement on the same page that they successfully fixed the anomaly," Moncla emphasized.

"The contradiction, "We don't know what caused it, but it's fixed," wouldn't be acceptable coming from a car mechanic, much less the Election Assistance Commission addressing the critical infrastructure systems which tally our votes."

This article will be updated with the Election Oversights Group's official complaint with Georgia's Election Board when it becomes available later this week.
Moncla plans to file lawsuits against the EAC and the State of Georgia.

WOW! Just went down quite the rabbit hole but finally found the rabbit.



DHS teamed up with private organizations to actively censor content on social media during the 2020 election. And those private entities received millions in funds to do so. The above video is them crowing about their success.

Where I started:

Quote:

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is planning to sue Twitter over the permanent suspension of her personal account.

Speaking to Just the News, Rep. Greene said that she has already discussed the issue with an attorney.
Quote:

The congresswoman says that she was censored as a private individual as it was her personal account, not her congressional one.

"I was a private citizen," the Georgia congresswoman said. "And I'm owed damages. They have no right to do this to me. I just need to find out how many people I need to name on lawsuits and the social media companies. I've had enough of it."

Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk has also announced that he is considering a lawsuit.

Both Greene and Kirk were among the people whose Twitter accounts were targeted by private groups who worked with the State Department and Department of Homeland Security to be censored. The groups were heavily rewarded with millions in tax dollars following the election.

"What we didn't know is how the federal government was paying money to a third party firm to actually act on the list," Kirk told Just the News. "We're looking at legal action and talking to the great Harmeet Dhillon."
LINK

From there I went to Just the News.
Quote:

Two prominent conservatives say they might take legal action against the government and private entities who censored social media accounts in 2020 during the election.
Quote:

Last week, Just the News reported that the federal government used private entities to target millions of social posts in 2020. The report stated that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) worked with four private groups to censor massive numbers of social media posts they considered to be misinformation during the 2020 election, and those groups then received millions of federal dollars from the Biden administration. Among those accounts that were targeted were Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.

Kirk said that he knew that certain people were being censored back in 2020, and they were referred to as the "great election misinformation spreaders."
LINK

That took me to another lengthy Just the News article.
Quote:

A consortium of four private groups worked with the departments of Homeland Security (DHS) and State to censor massive numbers of social media posts they considered misinformation during the 2020 election, and its members then got rewarded with millions of federal dollars from the Biden administration afterwards, according to interviews and documents obtained by Just the News.


The Election Integrity Partnership is back in action again for the 2022 midterm elections, raising concerns among civil libertarians that a chilling new form of public-private partnership to evade the First Amendment's prohibition of government censorship may be expanding.

The consortium is comprised of four member organizations: Stanford Internet Observatory (SIO), the University of Washington's Center for an Informed Public, the Atlantic Council's Digital Forensic Research Lab, and social media analytics firm Graphika. It set up a concierge-like service in 2020 that allowed federal agencies like Homeland's Cybersecurity Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and State's Global Engagement Center to file "tickets" requesting that online story links and social media posts be censored or flagged by Big Tech.

Three liberal groups the Democratic National Committee, Common Cause and the NAACP were also empowered like the federal agencies to file tickets seeking censorship of content. A Homeland-funded collaboration, the Elections Infrastructure Information Sharing and Analysis Center, also had access.
Quote:

In its own after-action report on the 2020 election, the consortium boasted it flagged more than 4,800 URLs shared nearly 22 million times on Twitter alone for social media platforms. Their staff worked 12-20 hour shifts from September through mid-November 2020, with "monitoring intensif[ying] significantly" the week before and after Election Day.
Quote:

The tickets sought removal, throttling and labeling of content that raised questions about mail-in ballot integrity, Arizona's "Sharpiegate," and other election integrity issues of concern to conservatives.

The consortium achieved a success rate in 2020 that would be enviable for baseball batters: Platforms took action on 35% of flagged URLs, with 21% labeled, 13% removed and 1% soft-blocked, meaning users had to reject a warning to see them. The partnership couldn't determine how many were downranked.

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibits Congress from passing any laws that abridge free speech, and courts have ruled that prohibition extends to federal agencies funded by the legislative branch. Participants were acutely aware that federal agencies' role in the effort strayed into uncharted legal territory.

For instance, SIO's Renee DiResta said in a CISA Cybersecurity Summit video in 2021 that the operation faced "unclear legal authorities" and "very real First Amendment questions." She joined SIO from a firm exposed by The New York Times for creating "a 'false flag' operation" against Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore.


Quote:

Mike Benz, an ex-State Department official who was slated to be the department's first-ever digital freedom ambassador if President Donald Trump had won a second term, discovered much of the consortium's work in research for his new Foundation for Freedom Online, a nonprofit which advocates for free speech globally while monitoring growing U.S. censorship.

He told Just the News the consortium was the largest federally-sanctioned censorship operation he had ever seen, a precursor to the now-scrapped Disinformation Governance Board and one that is likely to grow in future elections.

"If you trace the chronology, you find that there was actually 18 months' worth of institutional work to create this very apparatus that we now know played a significant role in the censorship of millions of posts for the 2020 election and has ambitious sights for 2022 and 2024," he said.
Quote:

Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-Ga.), a member of the House Homeland Security Committee, called the revelations "stunning" and said the 2020 operation amounted to the federal government sanctioning and outsourcing censorship.

"The government knows that they cannot do it by themselves because of the First Amendment of the Constitution, which prohibits it," Clyde told the "Just the News, Not Noise" television show. "And then they decide to partner with another entity, a private entity. a social media platform or university.

"And then they say, 'Hey, we're going to feed you information that we think is disinformation, or we want to be disinformation. And then you go ahead and you do the de-platforming. You label it as misinformation, or disinformation.'"
Quote:

It wasn't just blogs and individual social media users whose content was targeted for removal and throttling as "repeat spreaders" of misinformation. News and opinion organizations, including the New York Post, Fox News, Just the News and SeanHannity.com were also targeted.

The partnership's members published the 292-page public report in March 2021, though the most recent version is dated June 15, 2021. The launch webinar featured former CISA Director Christopher Krebs, "who led the effort to secure electoral infrastructure and the response to mis- and disinformation during the election period.

No. That's why I called this a rabbit hole of articles linking to other articles which link to other articles, etc.

But the "rabbit" was that zoom meeting on Youtube with them congratulating themselves for the success of their efforts in 2020. When the federal government pays private organizations to pressure social media to censor free speech, completely aimed at election and then covid "misinformation" is still a First Amendment violation. A big one.

The Ministry of Truth. Couldn't believe what I was reading until I watched the youtube video. You have the former head of CISA*, a DHS agency, admitting they did it.

*Krebs was the CISA leader stating 2020 was "the most secure election ever" guy, if memory serves. He was put into that position by Obama in 2015. These guys are slick and very patient, I'll grudgingly give them that

LOS ANGELES - The CEO of a company that provides software for managing Los Angeles County election poll workers was arrested Tuesday in Michigan for the alleged theft of workers' personal information.

Konnech Corp. CEO Eugene Yu was arrested on suspicion of theft of personal identifying information by investigators from the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office Bureau of Investigation, with assistance from the Meridian Township Police Department, District Attorney George Gascn said.

Investigators also seized hard drives and other digital evidence, he said.

Under its $2.9 million, five-year contract with the county, Konnech was supposed to securely maintain the data and ensure that only U.S. citizens and permanent residents have access to it, Gascn said.

But investigators determined that information collected by the company was stored on servers in the People's Republic of China, the district attorney said.

"I want to thank my prosecutors and investigators for their commitment to eliminating cyber intrusions against government entities and local businesses," Gascn said in a statement. "Data breaches are an ongoing threat to our digital way of life. When we entrust a company to hold our confidential data, they must be willing and able to protect our personal identifying information from theft. Otherwise, we are all victims."

Gascn said the investigation "is concerned solely with the personal identifying information of election workers. In this case, the alleged conduct had no impact on the tabulation of votes and did not alter election results. But security in all aspects of any election is essential so that we all have full faith in the integrity of the election process."

Michigan-based Konnech distributes and sells its proprietary PollChief software, which is an election worker management system that was used by the county in the last election. The software, which assists with poll worker assignments, communications and payroll, requires workers to submit personal identifying information, which is retained by the Konnech, according to the DA's Office.
