How do we get this to the attention of people who can change the system before 2026? You can bet that T and his goons have a plan to win in 26 to stay in power and out of jail. He said we’d never have to vote again, it would be so fixed.
Can we start from scratch? Follow the $… u can bet T will fight that and scotus will allow him to keep doing what he’s been doing all his life.. cheating and stealing and lying.
I am appalled that we've allowed the integrity of our elections to be compromised in the ways you've discovered. Continuing to use source code that's been available on hacker networks for years & relying on shadowy organizations to police the equipment manufacturers they're in bed with have allowed the 2024 election to be stolen. We're paying a terrible price for our negligence. Thank you for your important work.
You may have said elsewhere (I'm new to your writing) but if even the government BEFORE Trump was covering this tampering up, what in the world can we do now? I would be all for hand counts and letting it take as long as necessary to get a secure total. But it seems that the Government rules us, and we don''t rule the government any more, if we ever really did. I feel frantic for a solution, and for help.
The GOP has been using unethical (and illegal) means to win elections since Nixon's GOP broke into the Watergate.
Under Reagan, the GOP applied treason to exploit the Iranian hostage delema, to win.
Since Roberts corruptly shepherded through the Citizens United decision, the GOP has had unlimited financial resources to gerrymander and cheat.
To favor W, the Reagan justice appointments earned their money by jumping the shark, unconstitutionally. By before the recount was complete, instead of giving the election to Gore, giving it to W.
Now with Trump, they have every corrupt Republican's fever dream of a president, someone that cares nothing about laws and rules, except for how he can beat them. Someone that cares nothing about the disadvantaged and the poverty stricken, other than how he extracting the last few drops of their lifeblood and prey upon them.
Trump is a man privy to generations of corruption, with ties to the New York and Russian syndicates. Yes, the country and regulation hating party finally has their dream president, someone with no morality that was taught it's okay to cross any boundaried. A man that has an extremist Supreme Court that has seen fit to grant him unlimited legal immunity, in a fit of corruption bordering on insanity. (This Roberts Court that dismantled voting rights disenfranchising millions of voters, Roberts second treasonous, impeachable offense, after legalizing bribery.) Anyone that thinks our unlimited immunity president would not exploit every opportunity to cheat, presented to him, is not paying attention or doesn't understand anything about psychopathic nature or pathological greed.
Is *eliminating any and all software* from the whole voting process too high a cost, to preserve fair, honest, and free elections? It wasn’t too high a cost before there was software.
I’ll have what Canada is having please. Just people and paper ballots.
Keep investigating and thank you for investigating. If there is proof of computer fraud during the election, what will be done? The government already infested with MAGA Nazis all the way through the Supreme Court.
I appreciate the sheer volume of leg-work here—the FOIA requests, the contract trails, the deep dive into lab accreditation history. It matters. But the leap from “software was cloned / safeguards were loosened” to “vote totals were altered” is still an evidentiary canyon, not a crack. Having the blueprint is undoubtedly a risk; demonstrating a successful exploit at scale is proof.
A few details that tighten the argument:
• Chain-of-custody vs. exploitability
— When Logan’s team imaged Dominion drives in Coffee County, Georgia’s forensics confirmed the hash values on the original servers were unchanged after the breach. That doesn’t make the breach benign, but it shows the live environment wasn’t overwritten. Distinguishing “system could be compromised” from “system was compromised” keeps critics from dismissing the larger security point.
• EAC “de minimis” memos
— The 2024 ECO-1188 waiver removed the unauthorized-software alert because ES&S replaced that check with cryptographic hash verification at boot. The new control may be better or worse, but calling out the trade-off (signature check vs. hash check) shows you read the engineering change request, not just the cover letter.
• Risk-limiting audits
— Yes, some counties skip them or water them down, but where RLAs are done to the recommended sample size (e.g., Colorado), they would surface a silent software exploit that flips outcome-decisive margins. Flagging where RLAs were done and still showed implausible results would be the smoking gun a lot of readers are hunting for.
My takeaway: the election-tech supply chain is fragile, the accreditation loop is too cozy, and stolen source code never goes back in the bottle. That’s a real national-security discussion, whether you’re MAGA or #NeverTrump. But if we let “could be” and “was” blur, the story hands its strongest evidence to fact-checkers with a single word: speculation. Keep hammering, but keep the distinction razor-sharp—the credibility of every future FOIA you file depends on it.
"statistically impossible margins in 2024"
How? I saw the GA numbers. They looked very "possible" to me.
Blue states should form an interstate compact to make and own their own voting machines and buy no capitalist nazi machines
This is a critically important document to spread in wider circles daily. On any platform available.
with the Authors blessing I hope. Also with Her input into whatever strategy it might inspire.
The leadership of the Democratic party is to entrenched to be trusted with over coming the election attack we face for years to come.

The one piece missing is WHY did Ivanka Trump obtain voting machine trademarks from China in 2018??
Why is no one else talking about this?

I believe each Congress Person and our Supreme Court should vote in complete privacy.
Great work Dissent! Is there any way to see if these companies received big donor donations from the right?

Votes need to be manually counted. That would solve it right?

We should all do what we can.
