The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has frozen efforts to aid states in securing elections, according to an internal memo viewed by WIRED.
Thats how they are gonna do it. The next election is going to be a sham one. They are going to rig it in their favor. Every fucking state shouls be going back to paper ballots
Of course the next election will be a sham. I keep asking people who think there will be legitimate elections in the U.S. from now on why the Republicans would ever give up controlling the entire federal government, “They just would” seems to be the answer.
But just legitimate-looking enough that Americans cannot seek political asylum abroad because you show up in the EU and the border agents be like “tHE uSa iS a dEMocRACy”, and you get deported back to the US, and then the US border agents will refuse to recognize your citizenship, and you end up in guantanamo.
I have no option in Georgia for a paper ballot. I do it on a touchscreen computer each time. Yes that gets printed after i Digitally do it but not in an easy to read way. Then i put it into a bin that scans it and shreds it. No paper trail.
But yeah the qr code being what’s scanned but the text being what you can read seriously compromises voter verifiability. So close, but not voter verifiable. Close enough to fool people.
But it is. Otherwise if the voting machine has an error, the paper it prints out has the wrong info, at that point there is no validation that can occur via recount or any other means.
Or heaven forbid something in the software allows it to print the right vote but record the wrong vote. I’m with you: no paper trail = not a paper ballot.
As of the 2024 election all but a handful of counties in Texas and Louisiana have returned to paper. The Brennan Center for Justice estimates 98 percent of ballots were cast with paper records.
The states run the elections. There is nothing stopping the states from hiring cyber security professionals to make sure their elections are secure. Most state elections are still run by very competent people who are motivated to provide a free and fair election.

They’ve always been sham elections, they’re just pulling down the curtains that kept most folks believing in the lie.
Really? This sham got both Jimmy Carter and Donald Trump in the Oval Office?
I guess the Illuminati don’t have much of a plan.
Every fucking state does have paper ballots.
Uhh, no they do not.

The bin does not shred it.

That’s a paper ballot
A digital that is printed and then shredded is not a paper ballot.
A paper ballot is a paper I vote on. That stays intact for historical accuracy.
From your stance I am invincible. I have not died in the last five minutes therefore i am invincible.
no that is very much a paper ballot. The historical record part isn’t important.
But it is. Otherwise if the voting machine has an error, the paper it prints out has the wrong info, at that point there is no validation that can occur via recount or any other means.

Well… Good then!
Seriously though, i hadnt considered that my balot gets saved even though its scanned by a machine.
Yours does but not everywhere has a paper trail
Not true lol

Impressive! As the article says:
Didn’t realize it had improved so much
Counterexample?
Ballots are controlled by counties. You can Google it?

We get a “bloody kansas” moment with federal and state officials fighting each other.
I think if the feds tried to take over elections it would just be bloody feds.
