Bear in mind that there have been points recognized with voting machines in Colorado too.

On Friday, Jan nineteenth, Professor and Election Professional J. Alex Halderman surprised Choose Amy Totenberg’s Courtroom by rapidly hacking right into a Dominion Voting Machine with solely a pen. This demonstration was reside proof of the vulnerabilities recognized in his now well-known report.

Professor Halderman’s report and demonstration are a robust assertion on how the Nationwide Safety of our Nation hangs by a thread and fully relies upon upon zero nefarious entry to our voting gear.

Professor Halderman confirmed how susceptible our Election Tools is to anybody with malintent. However there are different vulnerabilities which have been found in different audits and election instances since 2020.

Based mostly on this work to this point, it seems that vulnerabilities recognized could also be intentional election manipulation, such because the gadgets recognized in Mesa County, Colorado (mentioned in studies 1-3 as detailed at https://tinapeters.us/reports/ – scroll to the underside of the web page to see the report hyperlinks).

The profession forensic specialists who labored on the Mesa County studies declare that every little thing in these studies was a results of the Laborious Drive Photos product of the Mesa County, Colorado Election Administration Server, earlier than and after Dominion Voting Methods did a ‘software upgrade’ generally known as “The Trusted Build”. These studies have been ignored by Election Authorities.

Listed below are among the takeaways from the Mesa County Studies:

1) The report concludes that the unauthorized existence of SQL Server Administration Studio (SSMS) within the operational Election Tools permits for simple intentional vote flipping. SSMS permits direct unauthorized modification of poll programming and votes.

2) The system is reportedly particularly programmed to mechanically direct all voting system gadgets to different networks, together with to the web with a click on of a button or plugging in a cable.

3) There are numerous different egregious insecurities past simply the few above. It might take numerous hours to go over all of them.

4) A secondary unauthorized database exists, as described in report #3, (and it was additionally featured within the documentary Selectioncode), it allowed for the creation of a ‘second set of books’ that was reportably utilized by nefarious actors.

5) The Mesa County Report #2 claims that 36 Wi-fi Units had been put in within the Election Administration System (EMS), permitting for a large number of wi-fi connections to be made at will at any time. That is particularly troubling after it had been repeatedly declared by the Voting System suppliers/directors/politicians that “Voting Machines are not Connected to the Internet” (or some other Community), thus violating regulation for certification.

6) The “Trusted Build” reportedly deleted election information reminiscent of Entry, Audit and Adjudication Log Recordsdata. This made it not possible to confirm the election outcomes. These deletions reportedly occurred lengthy earlier than the obligatory retention interval outlined by State and Federal Legal guidelines.

Professor Halderman demonstrated how easy it’s to hack into Georgia’s Dominion election methods, and his work offers help for the problems recognized within the Mesa Studies 1-3.

Collectively as clearly proven by Professor Halderman and the three Mesa County Studies, our digital voting methods (Ballot Pads, Tabulators, Servers, ICXs and so on.) are poorly designed for transparency, and safety, and not at all present assurance to each voter that their vote was counted as solid. The “I Voted” sticker together with empty “Trust Us” phrases of Election Officers is not any substitute for the assurances all People deserve with their sacred elections.

Moreover, the brand new twist of Rank Selection Voting (RCV) is simply a Trojan Horse to maintain Digital Voting Machines within the Election Ecosystem, as a result of they’re required to perform the difficult convoluted calculations required for RCV.

With 2024 Elections simply across the nook, it’s of utmost significance that the problems recognized in Mesa Studies 1-3 be thought-about by Choose Totenberg alongside Professor Halderman’s conclusions with the intention to have the fairest ruling doable.

By no means earlier than has the world been at such a crossroads of Tyranny vs. Freedom. The beforehand hidden (however now uncovered) mechanics of Digital Voting Machine vulnerabilities profoundly usurps our Constitutional Rights for transparency and accountability with our most sacred election course of.
