Sure they can… they’re just waiting for everyone else to report so they know how many ballots they need to produce
Don't even need to produce ballots. There are no ballots. They simply have to inject the votes. It's not auditable.

I don't think there is a statewide election that's tight enough that the Orleans Parish machine can swing this time. They usually "count" late into the night after all other parishes have turned in their results and somehow miraculously supply the DemocRats with the votes to put them over the top in toss up races.
That machine is Nola, EBR & Caddo.

True… but it was discovered in Mike Lindell’s report of every county/parish throughout the nation.

Yep. In close races where the outcome can be swung, the Orleans Parish machine goes BRRRRRRRR.

Florida and it’s not close. We have 20+ million counted and time and the nominations wrapped up the minutes the polls close

Catch-22. Louisiana is a special interests voting state vying for crumbs of the pie because of how Kingfish set things up, but that in turn acts as a legitimate checks n balances mechanism (ironically) for national elections.

Maybe California taught us how to cheat?

Because as corrupt as we have been we decided to make it really hard to cheat by manipulating the actual votes and spend to make sure it happens.

That's how it worked for me up in SW Missouri. Only difference being that I was asked to verbally confirm my home address.

Corruption
We bought REALLY expensive machines a long time ago so someone could get a kickback.
Turns out, they work pretty well!

As you walk out you notice the table against the wall with cake and cookies for the old ladies when they take a break. It's always there.
If you vote before noon, it is donuts.
And my youngest for the last 8 or so years has always come with me to vote, and they always offer her a cookie or donut.

There are three reasons LA elections are relatively well run.
1) We have used non-paper ballots for a long time. No issues with scanning / marking. Yes, there could be more "audit" available but to date, there hasn't been any real reason to think there is an issue.
2) All voting is run by the secretary of state (and before that, it was a statewide elected elections commissioner). We don't have county / parish election boards. All the places with screwed up elections... they all have county boards which are screwed up and these county boards have different policies from county to country.
3) We are allowed to count early / absentee ballots before electiond day. As soon as the polls close, we can release those vote totals. It is insane that there are places that don't allow the counting until after the polls close. If the early / absentee ballots are already counted, you can't shove more of them in there when your candidate is short.
Now granted all of that probably is a relic to overbearing state control... but it works in this case.

We have dominion machines and they have been cheating in every parish for decades
ACTUALLY the machines LA uses are somewhat more secure than many newer ones used around the country ALONG WITH polling place procedures and ID TO VOTE
But
Our Secretary of State just approved a monster purchase of brand new shiny Dominion machines within the last year or so .. not sure when they’ll be deployed and where

The dominion machines used in Louisiana are old as dirt and not able to be connected to Wi-Fi. Louisiana sucks at most things but it’s a very efficient state when it comes to voting. I know ascension is run like a well-oiled machine
