17. I would have to dig it out, but it's written normally in the code, algorithm which is proprietary

software... There is a hearing that happened in OH regarding this information in creating the programs that weight votes as a %, rather than a 1 to 1 type of system.

We need to have paper ballots, with people sitting there hand-counting with officials from parties on the ballots to watch the results. I think we can wait a day or two to make sure we know who actually won an election. (And normally the flip won't be more than 5% of the actual totals; that's why you must "strip" the voter of being able to place a vote, and any question, they go to a provisional, and for the most part, provisional's are tossed in the garbage.)
