Did Anonymous really Save-the-Vote in Ohio? .... REALLY???

135. Thanks, JR

We appreciate good people like you working the polls. We would not have one iota of fair elections if not for good people like you.

However.... there is more than meets the eye. Following is a reply made last night to someone else about Ohio. In response to this post:

"Remote access software can be surreptitiously installed on a computer." Says your link.

That means the laws concerning internet hookup could easily be hacked.

Memory chips can be set to flip votes. DRE's can flip votes, so the count out of those machines could be miscounted from the beginning. The only way to check the count is via audit. Audits take days, sometimes weeks. DRE's can not be audited.

What did the trick in Ohio 2004 was, along with the above, and other types of miscounts, was in the network with the state computers where all the data is uploaded electronically and therefore vulnerable to hacking.

What we saw in 2004 was false uploaded data. Thousands of votes had been electronically altered. But before an audit or recount could be done, the die was cast and Bush declared the winner. Subsequently, recounts were kept from being done and the only audits I remember were months later by private individuals.

Roughly written but historically true. In the heat of the moment, using electronically altered numbers, Bush was made into a winner.
