waitingmanGive it up, you orange buffoon. You lost. It's over. Get out
No matter how many baseless claims of electoral 'fraud' you make, the 'real' world is able to effortlessly refute them. And now you're getting desperate - claiming voting machines are owned by the Democrats & the Venezuelan government?!?!?!?!?!? Even your (hair)- dyed-in-the-wool clueless lawyer is starting to show signs of being stressed about defending this crap... So much so, he's using quotes from My Cousin Vinny to back up his claims. Ironic, really - given that was a movie about a lawyer hopelessly out of his depth & only a Hollywood ending (and a smarter woman) could save him. Time to get Marisa Tomei on the line Rudy...
"In Georgia, where a laborious hand-recount of votes is taking place, the Republican Secretary of State told the Washington Post that counties are already reporting that the hand recount of paper ballots matches the Dominion numbers perfectly.
The agency that oversees election security — the US Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) — joined a national coalition of government agencies in putting out a statement unequivocally denying the claims.
"There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised," the statement reads. They characterised the election as "the most secure in American history".
As for Trump's claims that Dominion is owned by Democrats — the company did make a one-time philanthropic donation to Bill and Hillary Clinton's non-profit in 2014, but the company's lobbyists have also donated to Republicans like Mitch McConnell. The Clintons have zero stake in Dominion's operations, both companies confirmed to The Associated Press.
Election security officials have been warning against using machines for years, not because there's documented evidence to show they've been used to tamper with election results, but because any glitches could lead to distrust in the system.
It's one reason why most precincts still rely on paper ballots and, even counties that do use technology, have options for post-vote, human audits.
Ahead of the 2020 election, the Democratic party led a charge in the Senate to increase federal oversight of election vendors like Dominion. The Republican party blocked the bill.
The vulnerabilities to the US voting system may be real, but the exploitation of those vulnerabilities isn't happening quite like Trump says."
