I think we might know where all the missing Dem ballots went
This is Ethan Shaotran. He's one of Musk's DOGE takeover hackers
2 yrs ago he won the Berkeley AI Hackathon
But in 2000 won the HackGT7 with a ballot altering program called BallotProof
Here's the deep dive that he couldn't scrub....
But let me get this straight - this requires access to the voting machine in a way that allows installing software that somehow intervene with the existing voting software.
And perhaps I am naive here, but I would assume that such a voting machine runs either
custom firmware / embedded operating system
custom version of Windows
custom or special purpose Linux
Windows in kiosk mode so normal users can’t access other application than the voting software nor OS settings.
As a minimum I would assume kiosk mode, but to be honest I would expect much more than that from a voting system, including tightened security and no or very limited interoperability between the voting software and other software on the machine. And I am not seeing any nasty malicious system-level code in the repo.
And yes, as you highlight, it is hard to buy this chain of events and yes, voting machines are a bad idea. As a technical person it sounds like conspiracy theorizing.
