Last Friday in Federal Court in Atlanta, in front of U.S. District Judge Amy Totenburg
Huddled around a voting machine in a federal courtroom, a small crowd watched as expert witness Alex Halderman demonstrated how someone could meddle with a Georgia election within seconds manipulating the Dominion Voting machines.
Halderman, a University of Michigan computer scientist, changed results of a hypothetical referendum on Sunday alcohol sales. He flipped the winner in a theoretical election between President George Washington and Benedict Arnold, the Revolutionary War general who defected to the British. He rigged the machine to print out as many ballots as he wanted.
All he needed was a pen to reach a button inside the touchscreen, a fake $10 voter card he had programmed, or a $100 USB device that he plugged into a cord connected to a printer, rewriting the touchscreen’s code.
Professor Halderman said:
Back in September 2020, the Court granted … Plaintiffs access to one of Georgia’s touchscreen ballot marking devices (BMDs) so that they could assess its security…I extensively tested the machine, and we discovered vulnerabilities in nearly every part of the system that is exposed to potential attackers.
The most critical problem we found is an arbitrary-code-execution vulnerability that can be exploited to spread malware from a county’s central election management system (EMS) to every BMD in the jurisdiction.
This makes it possible to attack the BMDs at scale, over a wide area, without needing physical access to any of them.
Our report explains how attackers could exploit the flaws we found to change votes or potentially even affect election outcomes in Georgia, including how they could defeat the technical and procedural protections the state has in place.”
This blockbuster admission and revelation in the court case has the power to change the outcome of the 2020 Presidential Election (revising the numbers) and setting an historic precedent to end electronic voting machines from coast to coast.
Interesting. Found a couple of articles sighting on his exact situation. I took this from the AJC, that bastion of conservative news……
It happened in a federal courtroom. It is not hypothetical conjecture or conspiracy.
