Let's entertain this for a moment:

If workers can cause these sorts of issues, then why do we even have electronic voting? How is this possibly making it easier to tally votes compared to using paper?

You don't really need any sort of special training to read doots off a piece of paper.

That's basically what someone said in the Twitter thread.

Hand punched cards (none of that BS with levers and hanging chads) and oldschool tabulating computers. Simple.

Actually high tech can be the solution. Crypto-based technology and forcing full real-time transparency for everyone to see.

Imagine you don't have to watch ANY media to follow the results, which will go online in real-time. Imagine you could look up your result anonymously.

AND the source code is open. While not everybody can just edit it, everybody can look into it and propose changes/improvements. It would take only ONE person to find something fishy, make a copy of the source code, report it to the oh-so trustworthy officials and the whole scheme blows up, and whoever inserted it as well - meaning cheating is impossible to implement.

And you could make test-runs and simulations.

Hell, you could just put in extra mechanisms to ensure the software is harder and harder to hack (possibly impossible). And ~6-12 months before the election, no changes can be made except small exceptions if necessary, which will be made very visible to everyone.

Just compare it with what it is now: Some shady company with deep ties to Kleptocrats with concealed source code.

The fact that the code is closed source for a process that requires full transparency really bothers the shit out of me.

We know this was a BLM/Antifa attack on our election process. The tactics they used to refuse GOP verifiers from count rooms is the same tactic they use on white people who don't kiss their ass in the streets. They also bullied them into not recording which is the common tactic since August on live streamers. If you ask me, all of this BLM/Antifa shit involving election interference started around late July/August. There's a REASON riots and marches slowed down in September onward. They planned this

Right. If it’s possible for people to fuck up while using the system, then it’s the system’s fault. We’re not landing probes on comets here, we’re counting how many dots went to person A vs person B.
