NYC Board of Elections throws mayoral primary into chaos by counting test ballots
The campaign to become New York City's next mayor has come in for another twist.

NYC thing is a lot like what we had in Antrim County MI in 2020. There was a clear discrepancy (vote totals didn't match ballots) that led to real questions. And we had an explanation available for what happened by the next day. Of course different from many of the other allegations.

As long as these are systems which are independent from systems from other voting blocks I would be fine with it. I also want Voter ID across the board so cheaters can't cheat. Only American Citizens eligible to vote should vote.
That's the law right now, and there's absolutely no evidence of any widespread violations of that law. So we must be doing things right....
This is a good take. The fact that we notice problems and audit and correct them is a good thing, it shows the system and it's checks and balances working.
Do voting machines have accessible ports?
This is the whole frickin’ point. A scam that is discovered is a failed scam. All we can do is strengthen universal precautions. (Yes we have proof of ineligible voters).
Just change "only" to "all" and we have a principle we should all agree on. Unfortunately, that is where the difference lies between the two parties.
They'd rather disenfranchise 10,000 citizens than let one ringer get through.
Voting machines that connect to interwebs:
Experts find more than 30 U.S. voting systems connected to internet
A team of election security experts used a “Google for servers” to challenge claims that voting machines do not connect to the internet and found some did.

The PDF below speaks about port vulnerabilities
At DefCon they hacked machines through ports. Some had nothing between the user, some had a cheap locking mechanism defeated by a ballpoint pen. You can Google DefCon voting machine and find information.
only a world class idiot wouldn't grasp that a paper ballot not hand counted, is effectively the same as no paper ballot at all and just a computer vote.
and no one here has proven more times to be a world class idiot than you.
anyone pushing for computer scanning as the official count may just as well push for voting by computer, as there is effectively little difference.
that said, i guess we must not have had elections prior to computers, if using them is the only way we can have elections or count ballots.
"We are lucky, right now there is no proof machines have ever been compromised and no proof of your ineligible voter issue. BUT we know Russia, China, and others, would love to corrupt the system. I'm not too worried about the DNC or RNC hacking our systems. I'm not sure they could have a combination lock that uses only one number and there being one number on the lock. But the Russians or Chinese might opt for something, and they are a bit better. They might hire 100,000 people to vote illegally, but that is hard to hide. Someone is going to talk. But getting to a few voter IT people in some swing states? A bit more possible (and even then pretty unlikely)".

most these days have a very naive grasp of just who or what the RNC and DNC are, and just whom they represent.
as for China, if China wants to affect our elections, and they do, going through the RNC and/or DNC is the most likely way they would do it.
Russia on the other hand doesn't really have that ability, and is far less likely to have great effect on US elections or policy in a political system that has become so money based as ours.
if Russia had something on someone they could blackmail them with, they could go that route, but then so could China.
not sayin, just sayin.
that said, while everyone is fixated on the general, the primaries are far more likely to be targeted by those wanting to affect policy, as the primaries are where real change can occur.
Way to not answer the question. Do you want the state of Indiana to hand count every single ballot, for every election? Do you know the last time that even occurred?
Have you ever done statistical sampling? Do you even have the slightest clue how to calculate a Z score?
When's the last year you held a real job? And what was it?

i'm obviously dealing with a complete and total idiot.
it would be literally impossible for me to have answered your question, before you even asked it, any more clearly than i already have multiple times.
how brain dead level stupid are you????
there is literally no way i could have been any clearer.
and i've had direct dealings with heads of industry on a higher level than you have ever dreamed of.
See my comments that conspiracy theorists believe such to boost their own egos and look at his posts (and some of our right wing conspiracy theorists). They believe they operate at a far higher level than we mere mortals.
Let's leave COH out of this, okay?
Hey, I had one. I never got tailgated. Safe distance was 100 car lengths.From the movie "Top Secret"...
Lastly, a fifth benefit of hiring a dedicated development team and software engineers is that they are able to provide a number of options when it comes to projects https://mlsdev.com/services/web-development. Typically, when a software product is being developed, it will undergo several phases before it reaches its final stage. In some cases, the software product may even go back to the drawing board before reaching its targeted market. However, by hiring dedicated development teams and software engineers, organizations are able to shorten the process down. In addition to this, when you hire dedicated professionals you are also able to get the assurance that you will be getting high quality software products that meet your exact requirements. Therefore, it is clear that organizations that need to hire these professionals should do so in order to reap the benefits that these professionals bring.
