The answer is NO. They did not change equipment. In fact, the ballot scan tool, ImageCast Precinct2 has the exact same firmware version as last year. So why did the Maricopa website change to support Sharpies at the 11th hour of the election?
To Cheat. That’s why.
Fuck with the calibration (plausible deniability, Left loves that shit) and you can have that machine count anything you want.
Exactly
The internet is forever! I fucking love it.
When will these people learn that when things are digital, things may come back to bite you in the ass? It's like the emails all over again!
Edit: Another huge thing I just noticed. I got the thought, what if the upgraded the firmware. Technically there could be new features such as adding sharpie support. Nope, same exact firmware version in 2019 and 2020
