I am glued to Twitter/X watching paint dry…I mean gleaning vital information about the election…and one thing stands out. 

Most of the reports of voting problems are occurring in deep Red counties in important swing states, especially Pennsylvania. 

Of course, some of the disparity in reports of problems may be due to disproportionate reporting or the bias in my Twitter feed (although I follow a lot of liberal accounts for obvious reasons–to burst my information bubble), but I don’t think so. 

Voting machines are down in deep red Cambria County, PA. STAY. IN. LINE.

It’s not just Cambria County–it’s all the surrounding counties too. Long lines of people waiting to vote and the machines are all down. 

They have started taking ballots that will be counted elsewhere, but the delays have been long and people have wrongly been told that they can get on a waiting list to vote and return later. 

Cambria County, Pennsylvania is currently experiencing a software malfunction. America has had enough. It’s time we rid ourselves of the voting machines that constantly provide room for doubt in our election integrity. When Trump gets in, he must resolve our elections once and… pic.twitter.com/NwkjLJrfpp

That is false. 

Maricopa county might take the Isn’t that Special Award when alls said and done. Wonder how many blue areas run out of ink or paper this year, in past elections it’s seems to be only redder areas https://t.co/KctbZiGR40

Voting centers in Maricopa County–a purple district, and I don’t where in Maricopa this is happening–are running out of ink by midmorning of Election day. Either the level of incompetence is so off the charts that it rivals the Secret Service, or somebody made this happen. Remember the last election when the paper ran out? 

Did they not know it was election day?

I really want to know why internet access is necessary for the voting machines to work. Seems fishy to me.

The legal battles are going strong, as Republican lawyers are having to beat back Democrat shenanigans such as excluding Republican poll watchers. 

PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION INTEGRITY:

Early this morning we learned that Republican poll watchers in Philadelphia, York, Westmoreland, Allegheny, Lehigh, Cambria, Wyoming, and Lackawanna Counties were being turned away.

We deployed our roving attorneys, engaged with local officials,…

There are other reports from around the country, often having to do with “software updates.” Gee, I wonder if we chose a method of voting not subject to this issue, such as paper ballots and pens, what would happen. 

Perhaps software issues, hacking, ink shortages for ballot printing machines, and power outages might not be a factor in voting. And just who opposes all those measures?

According to the Jefferson County Clerk’s Office, a software update to voting machines is the cause of delays at voting locations. The update is important for election integrity, they explained.

Of course, none of these examples PROVES that people are messing with the elections, but they certainly add to the list of circumstantial evidence that people are manipulating the voting process to make it harder for certain people to vote. That doesn’t require what we consider to be outright fraud but rather a process of rigging the system so that some people have an easy time and others have a harder time voting. 

Voting machines are stupid.

The standard of proof for rigging, at least when it comes to reforming the system, shouldn’t be “beyond a reasonable doubt;” rather it should be more like the standard for civil cases–the preponderance of the evidence. And the preponderance of the evidence clearly shows that the problems are so large that trust in the election is eroded to the point that we need massive reform. 

These things shouldn’t happen ever, and certainly not in razor-thin elections with massive consequences. This isn’t a dog catcher’s election but rather one where BOTH sides think the fight is existential. There should be no doubt that it was conducted fairly, and there is plenty of it. 

You can bet if Trump wins, the Democrats won’t go quietly, except perhaps if there is a blowout. And even then the violence will be off the charts. 

Make elections secure, run smoothly, and auditable. It’s the only way.
