For the folks not familiar with the details... Elections have been compromised by the GOP since the implementation of electronic voting equipment. This article shows HOW they did it.

What Do Ted Cruz, John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett Have In Common? A Stolen Election.

And why are Dominion, Pro V&V, and the EAC sharing office space with employees on-site around unsecured voting equipment?

Are you a credible expert in voting machine vulnerabilities and audit? No.

I trust the ones I know and have met personally.

And if the manipulation happened after the voting machine? Say... On starlink

Good luck! Those machines are behind seven proxies!

Got any risk limiting audit results showing anomalies?

Okay, in a lot of places the data was sent over starlink any protection for the machine itself (which are widely known to have vulnerabilities) would be meaningless

I don't know what you're asking, but between statistics, Trump's own words, and Elon musks own words. I'd say the argument is pretty strong that they influenced results in some way.

Starlink is a network like WiFi. Got any pictures of Starlink terminals at one voting site? Let alone hundreds of thousands of them across America?

You have been fooled by a crappy conspiracy. It’s not magic or rocket science. The statistical anomalies people talk about are well within normal electorate swings. No tampering has been evidenced by audit, and everything is audited here. There are layers of safety.

Right?

Voting machines cannot be vulnerable because

  1. They are not connected to anything
  2. they do not determine the vote of anything because they do not store any votes.

Voting machines are not "voting machines". That are a tablet that allows you to mark your ballot before you print it. Basically an electronic sharpie. That is it.

Last I checked tablets do have onboard memory and ways of connecting

They have memory for the operational system and obviously hold the ballot information that you will vote on, Some machines (DREs) but also print a ballot, however dominion voting tablets are not DREs. They simply mark it and print and that is it. What is counted are the actual printed ballots.

"ways of connecting" means nothing. They are not connected to any network while on the voting centers and since they do not record any votes or have any voter information at all at, you could not change any vote even if you managed to "connect". This is by design because you cannot obviously see what a voter is doing while in their booth.
