How would you respond to analysis such as this article outlining the case that accusations thus far against Dominion are not credible?
The dominion voting systems are susceptible to manipulation. Yeah but look some counties that used the system voted for Trump. Well that's probably because those counties always vote heavy R. It is a game of small changes to win. Which is obvious.
Unless a case can be made in court, isnt this all no better than speculation? You have message board and media driven entities on both sides saying things, but our courts are supposed to be where stuff gets resolved, and if Trump's lawyers were not able to make a compelling case in any court in any state then how am I as a voter supposed to completely buy in that significant enough fraud that turned an election actually occurred?
I am not just going to believe in conspiracy theories by either side. I'd like to see a compelling case made in a court of law. Am I correct that Trump has yet been able to successfully do that?

only hard core America-hating government worshiping communists who are enjoying the destruction of this country and wanted more division, open borders, new forever wars, massive government spending to devalue our currency and create poverty, and need to be governed harder respond to corrupted ez fraud elections with things like, "get over it".Barnyard96 said:

Do you believe Jan 6th was an insurrection? Yes. If the case goes to trial, Trump will be convicted.
Do you think that Trump colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 election? Yes, Trump would do anything to get elected. It wasn't as widespread as thought, but it was there. It still is. Putin would LOVE for Trump to get reelected.
Do you think that China launched the Covid virus? The virus came from release from the lab in Wuhan. I think it was error but everyone tried to cover it up.
Do you think Pelosi and co knew that China was the origination of the covid virus but purposefully prevented the isolation of China? No idea
Do you think that Faucii and Birx knew covid wasn't as deadly and that the vaccine was less effective than they claimed? No, I think they were pretending to be super smart when they didn't really know WTF was happening. They were just doing "fake it 'til you make it" and enjoying the fame and notoriety.
Well you could have started three years ago, as I did, watching witnesses testify before state legislative hearings, some court hearings that were live streamed, watch the films and documentaries I have posted throughout the years.Pumpkinhead said:aggiehawg said:Plus Runbeck printed all of the mail in ballots for Fulton County GA using an already compromised voter roll list that Judge Totenberg had expressed serous concerns about.texagbeliever said:In what way does that logically act as a counter argument.Pumpkinhead said:

how do you think they were going to execute the coup d'etat and commit an insurrection of the government with zero guns and zero shots fired? is there no difference between an angry mob mad about an obviously ****ed up and contentious election and an "insurrection"?Quote:
Do you believe Jan 6th was an insurrection? Yes.
Do you think that Trump colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 election? Yes,
Trump hasn't been charged with committing an insurrection as far as I knowQuote:
Do you believe Jan 6th was an insurrection? Yes. If the case goes to trial, Trump will be convicted.
He hasn't but that's not how the media will describe the charges, unless SCOTUS strikes down 1512(c)(2) as too vague as applied to the Jan 6th Fischer case to be heard and decided this term.captkirk said:Trump hasn't been charged with committing an insurrection as far as I knowQuote:

Would go a long way towards transparency if private entities being subcontracted out to perform election functions waive their privacy rights on their processes during every election. Should be in their contracts. And that includes electronic voting machine companies.oh no said:

If in the courts what I see is only Dominion winning defamation lawsuits, I see the Georgia Secretary of State easily winning re-election vs the Trump candidate in 2022 etc.
If I see no case in a court of law that is establishing legally accepted evidence of fraud, then how am I objectively going to side with any conspiracy theories that fraud legitimately happened?

The plaintiffs in Curling v. Raffensperger filed their response to Raffy's appeal to the 11th Circuit where he asked them to overturn Judge Totenberg's order requiring him to testify.
The plaintiffs response was an EPIC troll. They quoted his book… pic.twitter.com/tBfM6sw9V2
Quote:
Mandamus petitioner, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, falls far
short of establishing the clear and indisputable entitlement to relief required for
mandamus. He seeks this Court's emergency intervention to avoid testifying for
only 75 minutes (plus limited redirect) at a January trial on the security and reliability
of Georgia's voting system that he administers. And he does so even though, as the
district court found, he has "direct personal factual information pertaining to material
issues" that will be contested at trial. Pet. Ex. 9 at 3. Indeed, defendants' witnesses
repeatedly testified in depositions that they did not possess highly relevant factual
information and that only Secretary Raffensperger did. That evidentiary gap was
foundational to the district court's order, yet the Secretary's mandamus petition
misleadingly ignores it.
Pretty cheeky of a state Sec of State to tell a federal judge he's too busy to be bothered to attend and testify when he is a party to the lawsuit.Quote:
Given the centrality of Secretary Raffensperger's testimony to the issues at
trial and Plaintiffs' inability to secure the needed information from any other
witness, the district court acted well within its broad trial-management discretion
when ordering him to testify. At the same time, the court showed appropriate
awareness of Secretary Raffensperger's position and the demands on his time by
imposing a significant time limit on his testimony.
ZING!Quote:
The Secretary himself has recognized the necessity of courtroom testimony to the fact-finding process. As he wrote in his recent book Integrity Counts, "the ultimate fact-check in the United States [], occurs in courts of law, where witnesses
swear to tell the truth or risk imprisonment and where lawyers must also tell the truth
or risk disbarment. If you want to know the truth, watch what happens in court."
Brad Raffensperger, Integrity Counts 143 (2021).
Quote:
Secretary Raffensperger, the lead defendant in this case, has ultimate responsibility for the actions (or inactions) of his Office and directed activities central to this litigation. E.g., Resp. Ex. 8 (Raffensperger press release discussing the Secretary's involvement in implementing the BMD system).3
That's actually fairly common but it is generally when suit has been filed against a large company and that company "designates" their corporate representative for depositions, which routinely have only tangential involvement and little actual knowledge about the facts of the case. Still, not a good look for a Sec of State who constantly goes around touting how secure his voting policies, procedures and systems are to duck testifying.Quote:
In 2022, the district court "defer(ed)" a decision on whether to allow plaintiffs
to depose Secretary Raffensperger. Pet. Ex. 5 at 44:25.
The court explained that the question was premature because the parties did not yet know what other witnesses were "going to say" in their depositions and thus whether Secretary Raffensperger's
testimony would be necessary to fill any gaps. Pet. Ex. 5 at 44:18-45:4.
The court explained that a decision on his testimony should come "last," i.e., after other
witnesses had been deposed, and that the court would have to be "persuaded" at that
time to require his testimony. Pet. Ex. 5 at 44:19, 45:1.
Plaintiffs proceeded with deposing other state witnesses pursuant to Rule 30(b)(6). Despite their obligation to educate themselves before providing testimony on behalf of the Secretary's Office, none of these witnesses indicated they contacted the Secretary for his knowledge on the noticed topics, and he apparently made no efforts to communicate his knowledge to these designees.
Quote:
Instead, witness after witness testified that only Secretary Raffensperger could speak to matters central to this case, including (i) the purported 2021 investigation into the Coffee County breaches; (ii) his own factual assertions on core issues; and (iii) his own decisions about what, if anything, the State is doing to maintain and secure its voting system.
Yeah, right Gabe. You have attached at the hip to Raffensperger and you were the guy assigned to install Dominion's systems but you never discussed Halderman's report from 2021 with your boss?Quote:
Gabriel Sterling, the chief operations officer for the Secretary's Office (Curling, 2023 WL 7463462, at *3), testified that he did not know whether Secretary Raffensperger had even read a report canvasing security vulnerabilities in Georgia's BMD system:
Q. So the Secretary himself has not read it?
A. I don't know.
Q. Well, you're testifying on behalf of the Secretary's office today as a corporate representative. So I'm asking
A. Yes, I am.
Q. I'm asking you as a corporate representative, has the Secretary himself read this report?
A. And my answer remains the same, that I don't know.
Q. Okay. And how would you find that out?
A. I guess I would probably have to call him and ask him. It didn't occur to me to ask him beforehand.
Sec. of State Brad Raffensperger cannot be compelled to testify at upcoming trial regarding the security of Georgia voting machines, 11th Cir. rules.
