Victoria. I have the greatest respect for you. I applaud your information.
I don't mean this as a slight or insult. Election manipulation occurs. The table has been set for massive election fraud. There is the law. And there is reality.
@bigheadfred@mystery-ak@Gefn@Applewood@Cyber Liberty @DB@rangerrebew@roamer_1Fred, my friend, and you are my friend, you do not know what happens to a ballot before it is counted. Just because a ballot is in Central Counting, does not mean it is counted. Below are methods counties use to hold fair elections. (The Texas Election Code book is about 450 pages and the book is a large size.)
Every ballot, and I mean every ballot, mail ballot, early voting ballot, ballot cast on voting day, is checked to be sure it is a legal ballot. The following actions take place in every county/parish in the country. They have a method, just as Texas has a method to hold an honest election. The following explains some of “The Texas Election Codeâ€. Each state has its own election laws similar to the above to hold fair elections. You can read your state’s Election Code, by going to your legislature on line and reading the laws.
1. Every mail ballot info. is checked by the Early Voting Ballot Board (whatever a county names their board). Those rejected are not counted.
2. Every early voting polling place has the voter list which tells them if the voter who shows up is a registered voter and if the voter has already voted by mail as that is listed beside his/her name. If the voter is not listed on the master list at that polling precinct, that person cannot vote there; if the voter insists on voting there, the voter votes a Provisional Ballot, which is a paper ballot. That ballot is evaluated by the Early Voting Ballot Board and is rejected if it is determined the voter should not have voted at that polling place. As I have said, I was the Judge of our Early Voting Ballot Board and in ten years, not a single Provisional ballot was accepted – we examined each one and all of them were not eligible to vote in that precinct.
3. Ballots voted at precincts on voting day go through the same steps as on early voting days. Each voter must be a registered voter at that voting precinct. If the voter should not vote there but insists on it, again, the voter may vote a Provisional Ballot. It must be checked to be sure it is a legal ballot, and if not, it is not counted.
This story below may come up again this election as it did the last election:
Two men said they changed a voting machine. They got into it and scrambled its insides so they said voting machines can be changed and people reading that got upset, thinking the machines are being changed.
The two men surely could do that, however, before an election, the two party county chairmen, plus the election administrator examine every machine for accuracy. Once checked, the voting machines are locked in a room and there are two locks on the door. One key is with the Election Administrator and the other is kept by the Sheriff.
(See the problem with the two men who changed a machine? They can’t get a county machine to change – the machines are locked up.)
On election day, the room with machines is unlocked and the Sheriff’s deputies take the machines to each polling place. Before they are put into service, the Election Judge of one party and the Alternate Judge of the other party, check that each machine is set at 0 before used.
4. What happens at the end of election day?
Both the Election Judge and Alternate Judge remove the disks from the voting machines or from whatever method they are using, and they take the disks/other methods, with a deputy's car behind their car, and deliver the disks to the Central Counting Station. I wrote the part of a law that determines who is in the Central Counting Station in every county in Texas.
