Lake attorney Kurt Olsen further elaborated on the basis for the Supreme Court appeal on “War Room” on Real America’s Voice last week.

“We’ve uncovered three pieces of evidence. One, in 2020 and in 2022, they used altered software, and any statement that that software is certified by the [Election Assistance Commission] is false. They falsely stated that to the court. They falsely stated that the Arizona Senate during that audit in 2021, and they falsely state it on their website,” he said, referring to Maricopa County officials.

“The second thing that was false. They say they performed logic and accuracy testing, and that’s a pre-election test designed to give people confidence that the machines will actually tabulate and read votes as they are,” he added. “They did not perform logic and accuracy tests on any of the vote center tabulators they used in either the 2020 or the 2022 election. They used five spares.”

Third … our cyber experts and our team has uncovered that the master cryptographic encryption keys that are used to govern and encrypt all election data, the files, the software, had been left open on the database in plain text,” Olsen said.

The attorney explained that a malicious actor could easily take those keys and alter election results without detection.

“This is the most basic security violation that one can have. If you talk to any cyber security professional, to leave the master cryptographic keys in plain text, available to anybody who knows where to look, that is a violation of the most basic security standards,” Olsen asserted.

On its website, Maricopa County stated that its “tabulation equipment went through extensive testing and received federally accredited Election Assistance Commission certification.”

Additionally, “Prior to each election, Maricopa County performs a statutorily required Logic & Accuracy (L&A) test.”

And, “In Arizona, hand counts are performed to verify the machine counts from a sample of ballots from each County. The Maricopa County Elections Department conducted a hand count of two-percent of the Election Day ballots and 1 percent of early ballots as required by Arizona law, and it yielded a 100-percent match to the results produced by the tabulation equipment.”

A Maricopa County spokesman said he would not comment on pending litigation, but he directed The Western Journal to its website “Just The Facts,” which stated, “Maricopa County completed the statutorily required Logic & Accuracy (L&A) tests under the observation of political party observers from each party on October 11, 2022. After passing the tests, the equipment and programs were certified for use in the election.”

I mean for fricks sake, we do not need all this "technology" to count votes.

The only reason to have this technology is to cheat. Election officials say its to make voting more secure but the real reason is to cheat.

Count paper ballots. France does it in their elections and they have well over 60 million people that vote in elections. When broken down to the precinct level it is not hard to manually count votes by advocates for all candidates to ensure a fair count.

They could have changed the results and it was untraceable.

The Supreme Court will just say that the Constitution does not mention electronic voting machines so this is not the theatre to figure out the issue.

The can will be kicked to the DOJ who will say it was the most secure election ever as the machines go BBBRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTT

Just think about how much cheating can change people's perspective on these races. "Wellllll, maybe she WAS a terrible candidate".

Aside of the counting issues for Lake herself, if you just look at the participation disparity between the races yet people magically didn't cast a vote for another race on the same ballot.

No way that happened.

I fear the SCOTUS will come back with a “No Standing”

So I took a few minutes and compared the '22 statewide elections for Gov, AG, SOS and Senate to the same in '18, and it turns out there was substantially less disparity in participation between the races in 2022.

This ^^^^ makes perfect sense and a majority of Americans would agree with your post.

The old paper ballot, verifiable voter ID, chain of custody and hand count of cast ballots nearly eliminates all opportunities to cheat and rig elections.

I bet you're an election denier.

The problem with this and the other two items before it... is they prove something could have happened. They don't prove something did happen. That's why these cases never go anywhere. No judge is going to overturn an election on what might have happened.

I predict they will say elections are a state issue and send it back to Arizona.
