Electronic voting machines have built-in vote rigging code designed to evade audit

[vacuum]

This is a really important article.

It's a little bit technical, but don't let that cause you not to read through it, even if you don't understand everything. I've highlighted portions to make it easier.

Basically, voting machines are purposely designed to allow votes to be associated with non-whole number values. This system has been sold under various trade names, and counts about 25% of all votes in the US.


US Election Shocker: Is This How The Vote Will Be Rigged?

Votes are being counted as fractions instead of as whole numbers.



As we know, there are a number of ways to rig an election. Bev Harris, at blackboxvoting.org (https://archive.is/o/6gVZE/blackboxvoting.org/), is exploring a specific “cheat sheet” that has vast implications for the Trump vs. Hillary contest.



It’s a vote-counting system called GEMS.



I urge you to dive into her multi-part series, Fraction Magic (Part-1 here (https://archive.is/o/6gVZE/blackboxvoting.org/fraction-magic-1/)). Here are key Harris quotes. They’re all shockers:



“Our testing [of GEMS] shows that one vote can be counted 25 times, another only one one-thousandth of a time, effectively converting some votes to zero.”



“This report summarizes the results of our review of the GEMS election management system, which counts approximately 25 percent of all votes in the United States. The results of this study demonstrate that a fractional vote feature is embedded in each GEMS application which can be used to invisibly, yet radically, alter election outcomes by pre-setting desired vote percentages to redistribute votes. This tampering is not visible to election observers, even if they are standing in the room and watching the computer. Use of the decimalized vote feature is unlikely to be detected by auditing or canvass procedures, and can be applied across large jurisdictions in less than 60 seconds.”



“GEMS vote-counting systems are and have been operated under five trade names: Global Election Systems, Diebold Election Systems, Premier Election Systems, Dominion Voting Systems, and Election Systems & Software, in addition to a number of private regional subcontractors. At the time of this writing, this system is used statewide in Alaska, Connecticut, Georgia, Mississippi, New Hampshire, Utah and Vermont, and for counties in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming. It is also used in Canada.”



“Instead of ‘1’ the vote is allowed to be 1/2, or 1+7/8, or any other value that is not a whole number.”



“Weighting a race [through the use of GEMS] removes the principle of ‘one person-one vote’ to allow some votes to be counted as less than one or more than one. Regardless of what the real votes are, candidates can receive a set percentage of votes. Results can be controlled. For example, Candidate A can be assigned 44% of the votes, Candidate B 51%, and Candidate C the rest.”



“All evidence that [rigged] fractional values ever existed [in the GEMS system] can be removed instantly even from the underlying database using a setting in the GEMS data tables, in which case even instructing GEMS to show the [rigged] decimals will fail to reveal they were used.”


“Source code: Instructions to treat votes as decimal values instead of whole numbers [i.e., rigging] are inserted multiple times in the GEMS source code itself; thus, this feature cannot have been created by accident.”



A contact who, so far, apparently wishes to remain anonymous states the following about the history of the GEMS system:



“The Fractional vote [rigging] portion traces directly to Jeffrey W. Dean (https://archive.is/o/6gVZE/blackboxvoting.org/bbv_chapter-8.pdf), whose wife was primary stockholder of the company that developed GEMS. He ran the company but was prohibited from handling money or checks due to a criminal conviction for computer fraud, for which he spent 4 years in prison. Almost immediately after being released from prison he was granted intimate access to elections data and large government contracts for ballot printing and ballot processing.”



I see no effort on the part of the federal government, state governments, or the mainstream press to investigate the GEMS system or respond to Bev Harris’ extensive analysis.



It’s not as if media outlets are unaware of her. Fromshesource.org, here is an excerpt from her bio (https://archive.is/o/6gVZE/www.shesource.org/experts/profile/bev-harris):



“Harris has been referred to as ‘the godmother’ of the election reform movement. (Boston Globe). Vanity Fair magazine credits her with founding the movement to reform electronic voting. Time Magazine calls her book, Black Box Voting (https://archive.is/o/6gVZE/www.activistpost.com/product/k-Black+Box+Voting%3A+Ballot+Tampering+in+the+21st+C entury/DE/actipost08-21/), ‘the bible’ of electronic voting… Harris’s investigations have led some to call her the ‘Erin Brockovich of elections.’ (Salon.com)… Harris has supervised five ‘hack demonstrations’ in the field, using real voting machines. These have been covered by the Associated Press, the Washington Post, and in formal reports by the United States General Accounting Office…”



So far, her analysis of GEMS seems to be labeled “too hot to handle.” Press outlets prefer to report the slinging of mud from both Presidential candidates’ camps. Meanwhile, the actual results of the coming elections—including Congressional races—appear to be up for grabs, depending on who controls GEMS.

Yes, this is exactly how Hillary wins and there's not a damn thing we can do about it until after it happens. There'll be a lot of soul searching done by a lot of people after that...to fight or to submit

This is how Osama won second term

This why people who follow national elections and argue about presidential candidates are fools.

will the election's results be cancelled because of THIS?

yeah, right the russians LOLOLOL :D

Computer Expert Hacks Into Common Voting Machine in Minutes to Reveal Shocking 2016 Election Threat
With electronic voting, if Russian hackers wanted to target the November election, they could.


Professor Andrew Appel purchased for $82 a Sequoia AVC Advantage, one of the oldest machines still in use. Within 7 seconds, he and his student, Alex Halderman, had picked the lock open. Within minutes, the duo had removed the device’s unsecured ROM chips with their own hardware that makes it easy to alter the machine’s results.

Appel, his colleagues and students have been hacking into voting machines at the Center for Information Technology Policy since the late 1990s. With their work, the group has come to the conclusion that at some point, the national election will be the target of a coordinated cyber attack.

Now, with the specter of Russian hackers looming over the election cycle, the Department of Homeland Security said electronic voting machines must now be treated as “critical infrastructure” — a designation up until now reserved for dams, transportation systems and financial services.

The term refers to infrastructure “so vital to the United States that their incapacitation or destruction would have a debilitating effect on security, national economic security, national public health or safety, or any combination thereof.”

“This isn’t a crazy hypothetical anymore,” Dan Wallach, a computer science professor at Rice who studied under Appel told Politico. “Once you bring nation states’ cyber activity into the game? These machines, they barely work in a friendly environment.”

This why people who follow national elections and argue about presidential candidates are fools.

I prefer "benignly ignorant" -- projecting their own basic honesty & virtue onto their expectations of reasonable behavior by da dinjooz.media.gov who are in fact conspiring to create the massive facade of us being a true democratic republic, among so many other Big Lies (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_lie#Hitler.27s_use_of_the_expression)... said benignly ignorant J6Ps can't fathom the true depth of da dinjooz.media.gov's corruption, and the sheer scale of the deceptions which make up their blue pill world.




Hitler's use of the expression[edit (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Big_lie&action=edit&section=1)]

The source of the Big Lie technique is this passage, taken from Chapter 10 of James Murphy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Vincent_Murphy)'s translation of Mein Kampf (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mein_Kampf):


But it remained for the Jews, with their unqualified capacity for falsehood, and their fighting comrades, the Marxists, to impute responsibility for the downfall precisely to the man who alone had shown a superhuman will and energy in his effort to prevent the catastrophe which he had foreseen and to save the nation from that hour of complete overthrow and shame. By placing responsibility for the loss of the world war on the shoulders of Ludendorff they took away the weapon of moral right from the only adversary dangerous enough to be likely to succeed in bringing the betrayers of the Fatherland to Justice.



All this was inspired by the principle—which is quite true within itself—that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying.
— Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, vol. I, ch. X[1] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_lie#cite_note-mein-kampf-james-murphy-1)



In that same chapter, Hitler accused "the Jews (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_conspiracy)" of what he claimed was their use of the Big Lie.[1] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_lie#cite_note-mein-kampf-james-murphy-1)
The principle is sometimes translated and abbreviated as the pithy saying: "Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it."
