Who has power to order audit of military votes?
Commander in Chief?
Defense Secretary?
Logically I suppose there must be a military person responsible at the beginning, then a handoff to civilian regional jurisdiction.
The sneaky step of copying/transcribing every ballot onto the local forms allows a totally disconnected data island that can’t be verified by the military person who did the handoff. Only an audit to match up ballots?
Possible attack points in CoC
1) Mil hand off
2) Transcribe fuckery
3) Count fuckery
4) Post-count fuckery
Fuckery at each step requires different methods to catch it. :/
Oct 19th, but never saw it reported until today.
Physical ballots go from soldier to Mil post process, and are handed off in normal mail batches to civilian equivalent… injected into USPS stream. Then the ballots end up in local elections offices where a human looks at each one, and fills out a “propped” local ballot.
Numerous jurisdictions do this manually… so basically a Democrat could look at the form and say it was for Biden.
They are required to keep the original Mil ballots, don’t know how long.
Someone can order originals to be compared to the copies made.
*propper
Exactly.
Disconnects built into process… but that’s probably a coincidence I’m sure.
1) Having the soldiers use propper localized ballots that can be counted is just tooooo hard
2) requiring locals to count the official military ballot form is tooooo hard
3) so let’s have local people everywhere manually transcribe all the ballots because that’s sooooo much easier. kek!
