BREAKING: Attorneys File Suit After Ballot Accepted in Georgia County on Loose-Leaf Paper after Security Feature Was Turned Off in ALL Examined Machines

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/11/breaking-attorneys-file-suit-ballot-accepted-georgia-county-loose-leaf-paper-security-feature-turned-off-examined-machines/

So once again, Georgia's Secretary of State is not following the law.

Under the Certification process (as required by law), the State is supposed to check to ensure that this bit is turned ON.  They didn't.

 machine debacle clearly keeping voters away. Get in line, stay in line and stay until your vote is counted. Do not let the Open Borders Extremists win. Stand up for America. Dig deep. Get everyone to the polls!

Write-protect backup isn't turned on either.

Maricopa County intentionally reduced the polling places to create issues like this. Stay in line. Vote in person.

Voting machines in Democrat areas of Arizona are working beautifully, no glitches. Go figure.

[catfish1957]

It's going to be hard for Hobbs to duck electoral fraud charges if she ends up pulling off this scam.

This shit in 2022?  Throw her under the jail........

Maricopa County had no issues on Primary Day, but on Election Day nothing is working properly?

Who the hell would believe this?

[catfish1957]

Wish I was in AZ so I could volunteer as a line holder.  To protect these GOP voters.

This outrage must be addressed

Official: Problems with Vote Tabulation Machines at 20% of Maricopa County, Arizona, Voting Locations

Nick Gilbertson 8 Nov 2022

Update: Maricopa County refuted Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s claim that there were two-hour waits at most Maricopa County polling places. In a tweet, the county stated that the “vast majority of Vote Centers are seeing wait times under 30 minutes.” Additionally, the county’s Election Department announced that voters who checked into a polling station but wish to cast a ballot in another polling site “must first check out with a poll worker at the SiteBook to return the issued ballot.” It added, “After checking out, the voter will be able to vote at any of our locations. Find them at http://Locations.Maricopa.Vote”.

Some 20 percent of polling locations in Maricopa County, Arizona, are having issues with vote tabulation machines, according to an official.

“In about 20 percent of vote centers… when people will go, and they try and run the ballot through this tabulator, maybe one out of every five or so of those ballots they’re not going through,” Bill Gates, the chairman of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, said on Tuesday morning.

Democrat gubernatorial candidate Katie Hobbs is in change of Arizona’s elections as Secretary of State.

Turning Point USA’s Tyler Bowyer tweeted a video from a polling location in Anthem, Arizona, early this morning, where one poll worker said a tabulation machine was “taking about 75 percent” of ballots successfully, and another tabulator was completely down.

The Maricopa Fiasco

MICHAEL BRENDAN DOUGHERTY  |  November 8, 2022  |  3:49 PM

I suppose I should have been expecting this. Arizona — particularly the Arizona Republican Party — has spent a tremendous amount of time dividing itself over claims of electoral wrongdoing since 2020.

So, of course, it had to happen. It had to happen that the Democratic candidate for governor is the Secretary of State and nominally in charge of running a smooth election, while the Republican candidate is an “election denier.” And it had to happen in Maricopa County — one of the most important for Republicans in the state. Long lines. Tabulation machines malfunctioning — and confusion about what to do if you’ve checked in to vote but haven’t been able to cast a ballot yet.

Small armies of Republican lawyers are ready to pounce and willing to follow up on the chain-of-custody issues for those paper ballots. But we better hope it’s not close in Arizona.

The author here doesn't even address the issue, but blows it off as some kind of Murphy's Law thing.  How about admitting that the Republicans were right all along, and it's not an 'election denier' thing at all, but an 'election fraud denier' one.

[catfish1957]

Wow.  We all knew the dynamics of the 2020 steal. 

But what is happening in AZ is reminiscent  of Venezuela.   The brazenous of this is beyond belief.

"@KariLake:  "I’m going to do two terms. I’m going to be your worst frickin’ nightmare for 8 years, and we will reform the media as well. We are going to make you guys into journalists again. So, get ready. It’s going to be a fun 8 years.”  (Video)

Sweeeet!!

[mystery-ak]

excerpt:
The machine malfunctions fueled distrust among many Republican voters in Arizona that fraud was involved, especially after Trump issued a statement on his Truth Social platform.

"Reports are coming in from Arizona that the Voting Machines are not properly working in predominately Republican/Conservative areas," Trump said, adding: "Here we go again? The people will not stand for it!!"

Barbara Russell, 70, a volunteer Republican poll observer at a voting location in Wickenburg, a town in rural Maricopa County, told Reuters that both tabulation machines there had been malfunctioning and rejecting ballots.

"This is the total disenfranchisement of rural voters," Russell told Reuters.

Paul Penzone, the Maricopa County Sheriff, said additional deputies had been deployed to polling locations. Barricades were erected around the county's elections office in central Phoenix in anticipation of potential protests.

Maybe old news, but the dems are getting smoked in Florida turnout, in every region.  They are headed for a historic wipeout.

[mystery-ak]

Kari says she doing 2 terms...she probably won't even get one..if things don't change right now...people are leaving without voting.

Hobbs campaigned the same as Biden..she hid....I guess knowing she was going to win Az no matter what?

[cato potatoe]

WTF is going on in Arizona?  How do vote-tabulating machines just malfunction, unless they are struck by lightning?  They have to do one damn thing, and you know good and well they are tested beforehand.

People will take it.  They took it in 2020.  What will change this year?

There is a simple reason Arizonans should stay in line and vote even if it means standing in line all day.

Because if you don't, you can expect elections to be run like this for the rest of your life.

Baloney...

Yep.  They had an audit that proved the Democrats stole the election.  Yet didn't do a damn thing to prevent it from happening again.  Partisan Democrats had access to election machines in 2020.  And they had access again in 2022.  And Republicans did nothing.

@Cyber Liberty  have you heard any news about the voting in Az?
