Why is summing a number this complex? Hint... It hides the fraud!

Being a software engineer, I'm going to say it's too expensive for the machines on site to have the necessary hardware to do the digital image processing themselves.

So the machine scans the ballot into a high resolution image file and sends it to Frankfurt where a server farm processes each image and returns a vote tally.

The perfect place to insert a malicious script.

As a software engineer, this xkcd is 100% accurate:

So not only were these machines hooked up to the net, they wouldn't have worked otherwise, which means they violate a whole bunch of election laws depending on the state right?

I think they get around the laws by collecting ballot images on usb sticks and then uploading those via the Smartmatic software from a laptop or something.

I've also heard some of the machines have cellular modems built in, but cannot confirm.

Essentially, the system has so many security holes that you could have anything from people on the ground messing with the machines or USB drives to malicious scripts at the server farm. Any bank, medical device manufacturer or NASA would have fired any engineer who even suggested making a system like this.

The system would probably be more secure if they were directly connected to the internet. At least that would remove the human error and malfeasance associated with the USB sticks.

An act of desperation.

That would make sense as to why a german ISP experienced record breaking traffic in this time frame

Exactly my thought as well.

Laundering votes

And Smartmatic was what they used in Venezuela. The company was literally created in Venezuela in order to rig Chavez's elections. They didn't just use it, they built it.

And Smartmatic's parent company was the company who had on their board of directors, Mark Malloch Brown, George Soros's friend, and another guy who was the CEO of DLA Piper, the law firm with ties to the Clintons as well as being the place where Kamala Harris's husband works.

These fuckers are all connected.

And Dominion just provides the voting “services” around Dumbmatic.

Getting more likely with each info drop like this.
