A Palm Beach, Florida, elections volunteer was arrested for stealing computer equipment encrypted access key ahead of a special election where a Democrat won by 800 votes.

John Panicci was arrested on Friday for taking sensitive computer equipment and other supplies on March 19 ahead of the March 24 special election.

As previously reported, a Democrat flipped a Florida state house district that includes President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.

Encrypted Access Key


So he could make an R vote count as .625 votes and a D vote count as 1.375 votes?

I can tell you many of the younger people I work with believe in getting what they want by any means necessary. Most were raised by single white moms.

Impossible. It (D)oes’t work that way. They aren’t smart enough to rig elections.

Cheating in an election that doesn't even matter because the "winner" will never represent that district for anything

So dumb.

ETA: To be clear, she will lose the job in November, and won't be at the state house long enough before that to get even one single bill through a committee.

Not easy at all, I'm sure, but the people who want to destroy our nation, like George Soros and son, are wealthy and motivated. To them, this would be a simple inconvenience.

And this person being arrested won't change anything. They have this info already now.

The story without more facts and context really doesn't mean much. If the case was presented to a court, for example, you'd have to demonstrate convincingly exactly what was done to "cheat". I realize I'm stating the obvious, but it seems to be necessary sometimes...
