Smoke and Mirrors: New Evidence Suggests That NO Audit was Performed by Election Machine Testing Company as Claimed by Georgia Secretary of State | The Gateway Pundit

This text was primarily based on analysis performed by the Election Oversight Group and a personal Georgia citizen.  If you need to help the Elections Oversight Group, you are able to do so here.  There’s little-to-no funding for backend election investigations however lots of of tens of millions of {dollars} “donated” to register each particular person with a pulse.

The “Declare”

On November 17, 2020, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger made an announcement that an audit “utilizing forensic methods” was accomplished with “no signal of foul play” within the 2020 election. The assertion beforehand appeared on the Secretary of State’s webpage and continues to be obtainable through the Wayback Machine here.

From the assertion:

Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger final week ordered Professional V&V, a U.S. Election Help Fee licensed testing laboratory, to do an audit of a random pattern of machines to substantiate no hack or tamper: “Professional V&V discovered no proof of the machines being tampered.”

Professional V&V performed an audit of a random pattern of Dominion Voting Methods voting machines all through the state utilizing forensic methods, together with gear from Cobb, Douglas, Floyd, Morgan, Paulding, and Spalding Counties. ICP, ICX, and ICC parts had been all topic to the audit. In conducting the audit, Professional V&V extracted the software program or firmware from the parts to test that the one software program or firmware on the parts was licensed to be used by the Secretary of State’s workplace. The testing was performed on a Professional V&V laptop computer unbiased of the system.

The issue is that apart from a watered-down audit “report”, there may be little to no proof that this audit really happened.  The next was from the general public remark of yesterday’s State Election Board assembly in Georgia:

The “Memo”

In July 2021, an Open Data Request was despatched to the state of Georgia requesting “a possibility to examine or receive copies of public data that element the outcomes, contract, scope, and report of the audit that the Secretary of State contracted or directed Professional V&V to carry out on the Dominion Voting gear and machines after the 2020 basic election.”

Three paperwork had been returned:

1. “Memo for discipline audit.pdf”
2. “Re Memo Audit for Review_redacted.pdf”
3. “Area Audit Report Closing 1.1.pdf”

The final doc, the “Area Audit Report Closing 1.1.pdf” from Professional V&V was unusual.  For starters, the “Date” within the heading of the memo was “7/16/2021”.  This was eight full months after the audit was allegedly carried out in November 2020.

The Gateway Pundit wrote about this weird prevalence in July 2021.  I personally inspected the metadata from the pdf and had a number of specialists affirm my findings.  The metadata from the memo exhibits it was created on July 16, 2021.  And the metadata exhibits that it was created by Jack Cobb, the President of Professional V&V.

This isn’t the primary time that Professional V&V has been related to questionable paperwork.  In September 2022, The Gateway Pundit reported on their Letter of Settlement to the Elections Help Fee (EAC) concerning their certification to check voting programs.  On the time of the 2020 Election, the EAC web site confirmed that Professional V&V’s accreditation expired in February 2017.  The EAC would later use COVID-19 as an excuse for not updating their web site, despite the fact that COVID-19 didn’t exist in 2017 and the 2018 mid-term election had been run within the elapsed time.  Of their “Letter of Settlement” to the EAC, they used a totally totally different header from different paperwork that was really two photographs, one being their emblem, pieced collectively.  In addition they misspelled their very own deal with.  In addition they listed the outdated deal with for the EAC, which had moved years previous to the Letter of Settlement in query.  You may learn that article here.

The “Data”

Kevin Moncla of the Election Oversight Group, and one other particular person started to ship Open Data Requests from the counties that had been allegedly “audited”.  Whereas Raffensperger’s assertion says there have been six counties “audited”, the Professional V&V memo solely listed 4:  Floyd County (Rome, GA), Douglas County (Douglasville, GA), Paulding County (Dallas, GA), and Cobb County (Marietta, GA).  The report requests requested for communications between the Secretary of State, the State Board of Elections, and Professional V&V, amongst different issues.  The outcomes had been shocking.

Not one county had data affirming, and even suggesting, that Professional V&V did an audit of their gear.

The “Report”

In Georgia, on December 2, 2020, there was a report allegedly created by Professional V&V titled “Area Audit Report”.  This “report” was a 6-page doc with 5 pages of merely definitions for the sorts of gear.  Then, there’s a little over a web page beneath the heading “Audit Course of and Outcomes“.  Beneath that heading, there are 4 subsections:  Normal Info, Audit Configuration, Abstract Findings and Conclusions.  Of the 4 subsections, two are solely one sentence lengthy.  The third is 2 sentences lengthy and the Audit Configuration part is three brief paragraphs.  Notably lacking from the report are serial numbers of the particular machines that they “audited”.

By comparability, Professional V&V additionally launched a report on their “findings” in Maricopa County that was performed, coincidentally, or conveniently, simply earlier than the unbiased agency Cyber Ninjas performed an audit of the most important county in Arizona beneath contract with the Arizona Senate.  The “Field Audit Report” from Maricopa was virtually a cookie-cutter template of the Georgia report (which might be seen in this article here) for the primary three pages.  Then, it varies vastly:

• The Maricopa report lists the ICP2 Serial Quantity and Entrance and Again Seal Quantity for the 35 ICP2 tabulators they claimed to have “audited”.  Within the Georgia report, they merely inform you that “a complete of eighteen parts situated amongst six counties had been evaluated…”.  No Serial Numbers.  No Seal Numbers.  No chart with figuring out every part.  Nothing.
• Within the Maricopa report, the “Abstract Findings” included two tables titled “EMS and ICC Workstations/Servers Verification Particulars” that displayed the Scanner Info, Pc Mannequin and Serial Numbers.  It then gave a six sentence rationalization.  The Georgia report contained one single sentence, no tables, no gear descriptions, nothing of the kind within the “Abstract Findings”.
• The Maricopa report additionally included the headings titled “EMS and ICC Workstation/Servers Verification“, “ICP2 {Hardware} Verification“, “ICP2 Software program Verification“, “Community Evaluation“, “Accuracy Take a look at“.  The Georgia report didn’t include a single heading just like these discovered within the Maricopa report.

The “Declare” Half 2

In his November 2020 assertion, Secretary Raffensperger additionally acknowledged the next:

“In accordance with the Professional V&V audit, all the software program and firmware on the sampled machines was verified to be the software program and firmware licensed to be used by the Workplace of the Secretary of State. Coupled with the risk-limiting audit of all paper ballots relying solely on the printed textual content of the ballots, these steps affirm the evaluation of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Safety Company that there are not any indicators of cyber assaults or election hacking.”

The “risk-limiting audit of all paper ballots” being any form of affirmation needs to be a direct “pink flag”.  It’s flat out disinformation (the Mockingbird Media’s favourite phrase).  To be honest: there may be little cause to imagine that Secretary Raffensperger, at the moment, knew that the risk-limiting audit in Fulton County, Georgia’s largest county, was off by 1000’s of votes.  Sure, 1000’s.  However wouldn’t Raffensperger have seen the 1000’s of votes that it was off by within the outcomes?  No.  As a result of ballots had been double and triple scanned by the batch-load with a view to make the risk-limiting audit “match”.  So Raffensperger was seeing congruent numbers however they had been fabricated, as acknowledged by an investigative staff and report from the governor’s workplace.

This discrepancy within the risk-limiting audit resulted in a Consent Agreement between the State Election Board and the Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections.  The Gateway Pundit has beforehand coated this subject and quite a few different ones on this 4-part series (hyperlinks to Elements 1-3 within the article).

The “Questions”

With the extra supporting proof disclosed above, there are a number of questions that should be answered.  Investigations should be performed.  Legislators should deal with how obvious manipulations like this could happen in our elections.

• Why is a Voting Methods Testing Laboratory (VSTL), which certifies the machines earlier than an election, allowed to carry out an “audit” following an election?  The certification itself makes them a celebration to the validity of the system and due to this fact creates a evident battle of curiosity in permitting them to audit the machines afterwards.  The subsequent time you might be being audited by the IRS, ask them in case your private accountant can carry out the audit.
• Why are Voting Methods Testing Laboratories contracted by and paid by the businesses that make/promote/distribute the voting gear and never the state, county, or particular person municipality?   Professional V&V makes it clear on their website that they “will all the time be devoted to verifying your merchandise to your satisfaction.”  “Your merchandise” and “your satisfaction” is probably going not referring to the federal government entities that run our elections however don’t contract with the testing labs.  It’s referring to the businesses that make the gear and contract immediately with the VSTL, equivalent to Professional V&V.
• When will there be an intensive and clear investigation into an organization immediately concerned in essential infrastructure that seemingly acts on the behest of the federal government our bodies they work with?  This proof suggests a coordination with the Secretary of State’s workplace and Professional V&V to mislead the folks of Georgia and it’s elected legislators with faulty paperwork and an unverifiable “audit”.
• How a lot did then-Inspector Normal Scott McAfee know and to what extent did he go to research claims introduced with proof that there was no audit performed as alleged by the Secretary of State?  If the title “Scott McAfee” sounds acquainted, it’s as a result of he’s the choose at present presiding over the Donald Trump RICO case in Fulton County, Georgia.
• And lastly, with the 17k lacking poll photographs, 20k ballots counted on non-existent tabulators, appx. 6,000 ballots double and triple scanned within the risk-limiting audit, lacking ballot tapes and different election paperwork for lots of of tabulators, and far more proof:
• When will Georgia unseal the paper ballots and permit an unbiased inspection and investigation in Fulton County, and statewide, for the 2020 Election?  

Fulton County District Legal professional Fani Willis is prosecuting Donald Trump proper now for racketeering (RICO) in Fulton County.  Let that sink in.
