I'm a software engineer. I have been for nearly 20 years. This scenario they're trying to sell us makes no sense. Counting ballots is pretty easy. Scan paper, increment variable. That's about it. Adding the counts together is also simple addition. There's nothing beyond that. Reporting is likely a harder issue, but I mean Amazon handles far more transactions in an hour then this software handles in a single election so it's not that hard.
This is software that runs in a tightly controlled environment, on tightly controlled hardware, with tightly controlled inputs. We're not talking about software with millions of user interactions, where people can do stupid shit. This type of software environment is a dream for an engineer. There are no variables, and no human error, to worry about.
In short, if this "glitch" exists in a single county in MI, it exists in every state using this software. Also, this is not a bug. It's a feature. That's especially true if reports are accurate that this software was updated the morning of the election. Who the fuck in software would push an update the one and only day everyone in the nation is going to be using your software?
