Clearly. They intentionally made the voting system less secure than its ever been.


After I posted above I recalled that Democrats prior to 2020 tried to pass some election security laws regarding electronic voting machines that Republicans shot down:


quote:

McConnell defends blocking election security bill, rejects criticism he is aiding Russia

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Monday defended his decision to block an election security bill and lashed out at critics who suggested he was helping Russia, accusing them of engaging in “modern-day McCarthyism” to “smear” his record.


quote:

The House-passed bill would authorize more than $600 million for updating voting equipment to comply with new standards between now and 2020, including requirements that voting machines produce a paper record, stay disconnected from the Internet and be produced in the United States.

One Republican, Rep. Brian Mast (Fla.), joined Democrats in backing the measure last month.

Republicans, including McConnell, have opposed the bill because it imposes federal standards on an issue traditionally handled by the states.

“I’m not going to let Democrats and their water carriers in the media use Russia’s attack on our democracy as a Trojan horse for partisan wish list items that would not actually make our elections any safer,” McConnell said. “I’m not going to do that.”

The presentation is made by the style of news reporting of what "The Fox Stars" said regarding the election theft of 2020.

and yes, the words " according to a legal filing " were there. ETA: WAAAAAY DOWN in paragraph 20

But as many here have opined - it is the same kind of thing of which the NY Times has done repeatedly since President Trump announced his candidacy.

The headlines belied the small hidden notation

some religions savor tricks of this nature

Good recollection. The background for that was in the previous cycle, Dems had been worried about Russian intrusions into state voters systems that had occurred during the 2016 campaign, and advocated for paper backups.

... the NYT exposed themselves back I n 2006 when the published that fluff piecs about Hurricane Katrina ...

that far back ...

these hacks are scrambling today to make sure they keep that wool over your eyes

REALLY SCRAMBLING


quote:

You do realize they never actually investigated whether there was election fraud, right?





... because the courts themselves own the ballots now and the courts themselves have not started investigations ...

and this is what that that Burnson case was trying to do, to get the issue of voter fraud before the the SCOTUS.

But the case was declined for review on Jan. 9.

But then Brunson was resubmitted to the SCOTUS on Jan. 23rd AND THEN
the SCOTUS scheduled a private conference for today.

AND

THIS

IS

WHY

ALL

MEDIA

IS

GOING

FULL

BOAR

TO

SHOVE

NO

VOTER

FRAUD

DOWN

YOUR

THROAT

The NYT is quoting the Dominion pleadings which in turn are quoting from phone/email records obtained from Fox in discovery. For example:

Same question applies: What was the specific reference?

The filing would have us believe Tucker's unfortunately invective laden statement applies to everything Powell said. Does it? Or does it have to do with Powell going after Fox for things like the horribly inappropriate early call in AZ, refusal to pursue investigations on its own, and otherwise putting Carlson, Hannity, Wallace, et al on notice.

DVS would be one of those systems. Now DVS is trying to sue for the same claim.

Again, the DVS bastards had an opportunity to transparently address this. They used every means at their disposal to obfuscate and obstruct investigations.

Or even more accurately, 81 million ballots, a lot of them illegally “harvested.”

That doesn't sound right, but go ahead and link the post(s) you're referring to. I'd be happy to address them.

So its your contention that democrats made voting (on the net) MORE secure than it was in 2016?

Give me a second to laugh my a$$ off at you.

Well we can also see in the pleading that Carlson also thinks the early call was "bad" in that it was damaging to Foxnews, so I think we can say that he's not saying she's lying about that. Not sure how you could say it's a lie to have the opinion it was too soon.

Here's more from Tuck day before his text exchange with Ingraham and a few days after:



Tuck a couple of days after his intereview and just before the Ingraham text:



More:



Seems triangulated.

Caveat: Maybe, I'm saying there is a chance Fox's response brief will provide some fantastic contextual quotes that will frame this completely differently than Dominion's lawyers. Maybe.

No. The legislation was blocked by Republicans.

so allow me to ask this way. Despite Republican claims that this bill did dick for election integrity, had it passed, paired with the sweeping covid mail in "reforms" championed by democrats, do you think the system would be more secure today than it was when Trump was elected? Because if you do, you need help

They didn't make that claim.

It included most of the provisions the stop the steal crowd now claims were missing prior to 2020.

I understand it's difficult to deal with this information if you're entire view has been shaped by a false belief about election integrity and who is responsible.

from your link...

quote:

“I’m not going to let Democrats and their water carriers in the media use Russia’s attack on our democracy as a Trojan horse for partisan wish list items that would not actually make our elections any safer,” McConnell said. “I’m not going to do that.”



And this issue with the bill was federalization of state election issues. Not election security per se. But you already know that.

And if you are trying to sell the board on the idea that Dems wanted to institute real security reforms on the very issues they eagerly implemented then leveraged in 2020 to win the WH and both houses of congress, you are going to have to sell harder. A lot harder.
