There were many,
many problems discovered during the Maricopa audit.
So in the first place, the Senate subpoenaed the ballots,
and the Board of Supervisors delayed
five months
before they delivered the ballots. Out of 1,600-something boxes,
all but about 50,
the seals were missing or had been broken.
There was no chain of custody on them. Dominion has a very specific
requirement for ballot paper to be used in a Dominion scanner.
So we're talking about something that's four or five times thicker
than an ordinary sheet of paper. It has to be manufactured by
the Rolland Paper Company in Canada
and it has to have an infrared fluorescent watermark on it. Inside the scanner,
there is an infrared light and a
detector to make sure that the ballot that's been inserted is not counterfeit.
But when the citizen auditors actually
got to look at the ballots, they found nine or ten different kinds of paper,
most of which came from
Staples and OfficeMax.
You say, well, how is this possible
that they scanned two
million ballots and didn't detect and reject the counterfeit paper?
It's very simple.
There's a configuration setting to turn the detector off.
So basically, the machine was set
not to check whether the paper being inserted was counterfeit paper.
And you can count counterfeit ballots as many times as you want and get
the same numbers.
But that doesn't mean that they were legitimate ballots, because they weren't.
Acceptance of counterfeit ballots wasn't just relegated to Dominion tabulators
in Arizona. In Alabama,
a citizen went across the street and
printed a ballot image on notebook paper.
The machine accepted and tabulated the votes on every
single ballot.
So in other words, you can make 500 copies of one ballot and send them through.
- Yes. - Just send them through. - Yep.
This is why we need to be watching to make sure.
