NC Election Officials Confirm Voting Irregularities in One County

Officials in a North Carolina county accidentally inflated the votes in one Super Tuesday primary election, but fixed the problem on Thursday.

The county also has just one registered Constitution Party voter and one registered Green Party voter — but mistakenly reported dozens of votes cast in both primaries.

By Thursday afternoon, however, the county had figured out what went wrong and submitted the correct numbers. In reality, the new numbers show, both of the county’s single Constitution Party and Green Party voters cast a ballot. So did five — not 863 — Libertarians, most of whom voted for “No Preference” instead of picking one of the 16 candidates on the ballot.

So what caused the original results to be so wrong for those races?

Before each election, counties run what are called “logic and accuracy” tests of their voting software to ensure there are no problems. A top state election official, Katelyn Love, wrote in a press release that on Thursday afternoon that on election night, Warren County officials accidentally reported those test results.

2. This is EXACTLY what Jennifer Cohn warned about. Ability to fake an election.

If the machines can run a simulation “for testing purposes”, they can run one for “election” purposes.

Where there is smoke, there’s fire. There’s been a lot of smoke that keeps appearing.

Connections to the internet that were first denied, bootable-by-USB computers, convicted felons running the voting machine companies, “glitches”, opaque chain of custody, machines stolen out of a truck, “patches” installed in the last hours, vote-flipping “calibration errors”, voter rolls left unsecured, hacking attempts into the voter rolls...
Did I forget some?
That’s off the top of my head.

This one is serious. But there was another one that was serious a month or two ago, and I’ve heard nothing on it. Except “the system functioned as designed because we had paper backup.” And gee, the company that made the machine wasn’t “going to charge us anything!” to “come fix the problem.”

“Democracy died in digital deception.” That’s how I see it.

3. Same as in Pennsylvania. Actual winner first counted as 164 votes out of 55,000.
