Norm Eisen: BREAKING: we just blocked Musk & Trump out of the Treasury systems!

113. No. Thank you for the link.

That like provides very important analysis. There has been considerable talk about voter suppression, which is a very real thing keeping millions of voters off the results.

But we have Trump out there saying "Elon really knows all about those vote counting computers." That would be pretty weird as a random comment. It isn't a random comment. It is Trump saying the secret part out loud, as he does so frequently.

It is important to note that a majority of the swing states have Democratic Governors, but I don't believe a single one of them has ordered any kind of post-election audit. The problem is that most politicians are lawyers and a few doctors. But there aren't many who know anything about IT.

In posts below, I have spelled out the most likely vulnerability that a person who became expert in "vote counting computers" would exploit. If such a thing happened, which is at least suggested by the patterns in the link you shared, they could easily be exposed by re-scanning ballots from suspicious precincts to see if they match the memory cards that were submitted on election night. Not rocket science.

Just by way of background, I have a computer science degree and a 45-year IT career in system engineering, and I have also worked over a dozen elections using the ESS equipment that is the likely target if somebody were inclined to do something malevolent with "vote counting computers".
