E******n systems expert demonstrates how easy it is to HACK v****g machine USING ONLY A PEN
By Arsenio Toledo // Jan 23, 2024
An e******n technology expert successfully hacked into a D******n V****g Systems electronic v****g machine using only a pen.
This happened during a trial that began on Jan. 9 over a constitutional challenge to Georgia's e******n system. This trial is arguing for United States District Judge Amy Totenberg of the Northern District of Georgia to compel the state to stop using the D******n V****g Systems touchscreen v****g machines used by nearly every in-person v**er statewide.
On Friday, Jan. 19, in the latest development of the case in a federal court in Atlanta, J. Alex Halderman, a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of Michigan, demonstrated to Totenberg how he could hack into a D******n v****g machine to change the tabulation using only a pen. (Related: EXPLOSIVE: Halderman report in Georgia confirms V**ES CAN BE ALTERED through defective D******n v****g machines – Raffensperger hid this from public – Garland Favorito weighs in.)
In a theoretical e******n between Founding Father President George Washington and American Revolutionary War general-turned-t*****r Benedict Arnold, Halderman was able to flip the winner and rig the machine to print out as many b****ts as he wanted.
All Halderman needed was a pen to reach a button inside the touchscreen of the v****g machines and a f**e $10 v**er card he had programmed or a $100 USB device that he plugged into a cord connected to the v****g machine's printer. Once he obtained access, Halderman was able to easily rewrite the touchscreen's code.
"All of these things worry me – just how easy these machines would be to tamper with. It's so far from a secure system," testified Halderman. "There are all kinds of politically motivated actors that would be eager to affect results."
Halderman noted that he discovered these vulnerabilities after being given an e******n machine from Fulton County. He noted that a wrongdoer, hidden behind a privacy screen at a v****g precinct, would almost certainly not be caught by e******n workers. Changing a machine's programming would take seconds or minutes and would cause "chaos" in a major e******n and make it difficult for v****g precincts to determine which b****ts are legitimate or not.
A potential criminal doesn't need to open up the core of a v****g machine or remove any security seals to gain "superuser" access to a touchscreen and change its programming.
While Halderman did note that the vulnerabilities would only affect one v****g machine at a time, he warned that many more v**es could be changed if illicit elements within society were able to gain access to e******n management servers overseen by state and county e******n officials.
Trial in Georgia arguing for scrapping v****g machines in favor of paper b****ts
Halderman, as an expert witness for the plaintiffs, had written a lengthy report identifying the many vulnerabilities found in Georgia's electronic v****g machines. The Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has agreed with Halderman's report, warning jurisdictions to quickly mitigate all vulnerabilities they find with the use of D******n's v****g machines.
The ongoing trial in Georgia is arguing for most v**ers in the state to fill out hand-marked paper b****ts and the touchscreen v****g machines to only be used at polling places for people with disabilities. Reverting to paper b****ts, the plaintiffs argue, would ensure v**er intent is accurately captured and that meaningful audits can be done.
"My v**e should be counted as cast. My particular point of view should be heard," said Jeff Schoenberg, a member of an e******n integrity organization in Georgia. He contended that D******n's v****g systems are exceptionally vulnerable to attack and have operational issues that could cost v**ers their right to cast a v**e and have it accurately counted.
Georgia's touchscreen electronic v****g machines print out b****ts with a human-readable summary of v**ers' se******ns and a QR code that a scanner reads to count the v**es. Schoenberg said there is no way for v**ers in the state to verify that the b****ts accurately reflect their se******ns.
Robert McGuire, an attorney for the plaintiffs and representing the Coalition for Good Governance, an advocacy organization for e******n integrity, said Totenberg's decision is a difficult one but added that the current system is "profoundly insecure, unreliable and untrustworthy" and that if concerns with the D******n machines are not addressed, "a disaster is waiting to happen in 2024."

My emotions (liberal/progressives) supercede facts, therfore I cannot accept or read anything, that offends my pre-determined beliefs.
Most fair and honest e******n in history, even CNN,MSN, ABC, NBC agree.
Same with J-6
Same with v*****e
Same with Israel/Palestinian
Same with border
Same with economy/inflation
Same with 20 other lies the left serves their sheeple
Liberal/progressives are wired against t***h, God, good-bad moral compass standards, operating from emotions and lust of sin.

That’s why Joe Biden has that “Schitt Eating Grin” on his face. The fix is in! He can sit in his basement and watch the v**es roll in.
If he was concerned about getting v**es, he wouldn’t be treating the American people badly, but he knows he’ll win and the courts will never challenge the outcome.

I'm concerned about a Democrat false f**g/ Black swan event perpetrated by three letter agencies, allowing terrorists events across our land, to stop e******ns or the use of only Mail in b****ts.
The odds of the left removing Biden (this summer) in my opinion are high, then putting all forces on their next puppet to occupy the oval office.
What I am certain of, something treasonous WILL happen. Will Trump be taken out? Again while it's speculation, we are living in a Banana Republic of the United States and powerful behind the curtain people, will get their way.
I have to agree with many of the tinfoil hats, we do not have e******ns anymore, we have se******ns.

Tampering with the Software Was Reported By A PHD in the wayback but like everything, the allegations were ignored.
D******n Software Switched Millions of Trump V**es to Biden
By Harold Pease, Ph.D.
A 6,000 v**e switch in Michigan giving Trump v**es to Biden, said to be a glitch, has brought electronic v****g machines and programs into national focus. The attention is centered on the software program D******n, made by Smartmatic in Venezuela, used in 30 states and in 2000 jurisdictions throughout the nation. Texas wisely, three times, refused its use because of serious security concerns.
This prompts questions. Why does D******n switch v**es only from Trump to Biden, one way? Perhaps a few v**es but could it switch millions of Trump v**es to Biden, enough to steal an e******n? Apparently yes and did. WhiteHouse attorney Sidney Powell on Sunday With Maria Bartiromo, November 15, 2020, told Maria, “President T***p w*n by not just hundreds of thousands but by millions … that were shifted by this software that was designed expressly for that purpose. We have sworn witness testimony of why the software was designed. It was designed to rig e******ns….We have so much evidence I feel like it’s coming in through a firehose.”
She spoke of Peter Neffenger, president and board of directors member of Smartmatic, the manufacturer of D******n, and now on Biden’s t***sition team, as having known of its capacity to alter e******ns and its having done so effectively in other countries especially in Venezuela. Its use in America was to do the same here.
Powell continued, “Even their own manual explains how those [v**es] can be wiped away. They can …d**g and drop Trump v**es to a separate folder and then delete that folder. It’s absolutely brazen how people bought the system and why they bought this system. In fact, every state that bought D******n, for sure should have a criminal investigation or at least a serious investigation of the officers in the states who bought the software…. they know that they can win the e******n if they are using that software. It’s really an insidious, corrupt system.” At another point in the conversation, she said, “No honest person would use the system….But the people who bought the D******n system for sure knew exactly what they were getting. It should never have been installed anywhere.”
Maria Bartiromo mentioned that her whistleblowers had said similar things. One, an IT specialist familiar with the software, spoke of “an unusual patch that was put into the software while it was live. And it’s highly unusual to put a patch in there.” She asks, “Is that what you’re referring to? Tell me how it’s done and how these backdoors work.”
Powell responded, “That’s part of it. They can stick a thumb drive in the machine or load software to it even from the Internet. They can do it from Germany or Venezuela even. They can remote access anything. They can watch v**es in real-time. They can shift v**es in real-time. We’ve identified mathematically the exact algorithm they used and planned to use from the beginning to modify the v**es, in this case, to make sure Biden won….And they can do anything they want with the v**es. They can have the machines not read the signature. They can have the machines not read the down-b****t, they can make the machines read and catalog only the Biden v**es. It’s like d**g and drops wh**ever you want, wherever you want. Upload v**es? Yeah.”
Powell explained that this is what happened in the wee morning hours of November 4 in Michigan and Pennsylvania “all of a sudden hundreds of thousands of v**es at a 67% ratio for Biden 23% for Trump uploaded multiple times into the system.” Adding, that is why Biden “said he didn’t need your v**es now. He would need you later. He was right. I mean, in his demented state, he had no filter and he was speaking the t***h more than once, including when he said he had the largest v***r f***d organization ever. Well, it’s massive e******n f***d. It’s gonna undo the entire e******n.”
Bartiromo asks Powell, “You say you have an affidavit from someone who knows how this system works and was there with the planning of it…You can prove this?” Powell. “Yes. Oh, oh, yes. We have a witness who knew exactly how it worked from the beginning, why it was designed to work that way.” Adding, “That was the same play that had worked in other countries.”
None of this should surprise Democrats as they have warned about electronic e******n f***d long before Donald Trump. “Just last year, several leading Democrats in the Senate, moderates, including Amy Klobuchar, and Mark Warner of Virginia, sent a letter to the three largest vendors of e******n systems in our country. Those companies included e******n systems and software: D******n, V****g Systems, Inc, and Hart InterCivic.” It read in part, “The integrity of our e******ns is directly tied to the machines we v**e on, the products that you make. There has been a lack of meaningful innovation in the e******n vendor industry and our democracy is paying the price” (Tucker Carlson Tonight, Nov. 16, 2020).
Unfortunately, Democrats seem strangely quiet. They appear happy with the fraudulent v**e count, saying nothing of the overwhelming evidence surrounding it, and their media’s participation in the censorship of those who do. If it were the other way around they would squawk like geese. Unless censorship prevails look for them to return to f**g and city burning and Molotov cocktail throwing when the courts throw out the illegal b****ts and give Trump his rightful second term.

We need to address these concerns or we will end up with another v****g fiasco. Asking the experts. What needs to be done to prevent r****d v****g software? Who will certify the software and protect the machines from patches to change the tallies?
