WE’RE BEING LIED TO: Results Provided by Media Are Not Derived from Flashdrives Coming from Precincts

No Shit Sherlock......


This appears consistent with an understanding of the process in Michigan. IT and election expert and former Michigan State Senator Patrick Colbeck reported on the roll-up process as follows.

So, the official story as to how election results are transmitted on election night to your favorite county or municipal website is that they are transferred via “sneakernet”. What is the “sneakernet”? Well, as applied to elections it involves the following communication pathways:

Once polls closed, election results at each precinct are stored on secure flash drives
Flash drives are removed from the precinct tabulators and placed in a sealed envelope along with other election artifacts such as the official statement of votes for the precinct.
Sealed envelopes from precincts are transferred physically (i.e. walking in “sneakers”) to other agents of government such as the County Clerk’s office
The County Clerk unseals the envelope and inserts the secure flash drive into the County Election Management Server
The County Election Management Server then uploads the election results to a government website which allows the public to review the results via the internet

As long as the envelope seal remains intact between the precinct and the County, voters have every reason to believe that a roll-up of the precinct results will be accurately reflected in the County election results.

However, during the recent primary election in 2022 in Wayne County, Michigan (Detroit), Colbeck reported that the following occurred.

Originally, Colbeck wanted to observe the tabulation of results but was prevented from doing so despite the law providing the ability to do so:

…respectfully requested the ability to oversee the tabulation of results received from the 43 municipalities in Wayne County. Despite citing our statutory authority to do so under MCL 168.733 and MCL 168.807, Lisa Williams denied us access and directed staff to provide us with seating outside of the clerk’s office.

Colbeck sat outside the County’s office and kept records of the results being dropped off at the facility. Colbert observed the first results being reported by the media. But something strange occurred. None of the envelopes dropped off at the center had been opened after arriving at the facility, yet results were being reported.

Please note that ZERO of the communities posting election results during the first website update at 10:39pm had delivered any of their results flash drives to the Wayne County Clerk’s office prior to 10:39pm. Either the flash drives were delivered by carrier pigeon or the election results for all of the communities included in the 10:39pm update were uploaded via the internet.
