'All.. were very clean. No bubbles were coloured outside the line.. almost all of the ballots I reviewed were for Biden.. Many.. had.. no markings on the rest of the ballot.'
6) Kelly Moore, monitor at Lithonia, DeKalb County.
'From the handful of ballots I was able to see up close, it looked like many of the absentee ballots were perfectly filled out, as if the bubbles had been filled in by a machine.'
'no creases.. giving the impression that they were never folded into an envelope and mailed.. appeared to be pre-printed with.. selections already made. Hundreds of ballots at a time were counted for Biden only.'
8) Robin Hall, Fulton County observer at GWCC Atlanta.
'Many of the boxes of ballots [were] 100% for Biden.. appeared to be perfectly filled out as if they were pre-printed with the presidential candidate selected.. not.. like.. filled.. out at home.'
9) Barbara Hartman, Fulton County auditor, GWCC Atlanta.
'I could not observe any creases in the ballots.. The marked bubbles for each candidate was filled in black ink perfectly within the circle. They looked as if they were stamped.'
1/ Report by @StuteeMishra related to the battle for an independent audit of the Detroit election fails to explain the two main arguments of the members of the Board of Canvassers who have changed their minds about certifying the results. They say a) that independent.co.uk/news/world/ame…
2/ they were advised by Wayne County counsel Janet Anderson-Davis that they were legally obliged to certify (affidavit of William Hartmann):
Please read the Affidavit by Zachary Larsen, an attorney and former Assistant Attorney General in the State of Michigan. On 3 November he visited 20-30 precincts and was able to confirm that the election process was being conducted according to law.
Next day, 4th Nov, Larsen visited the TCF Center, Detroit. He found that the process for maintaining secrecy, requiring 4 separate officials for each mail-in ballot, was not being followed. On the contrary officials were peeking into the envelopes to observe the ballots:
It appeared that officials might be discriminating between ballots according to which way the voter had voted:
#ElectronicVotingSecurity An early (2007) evaluation of electronic voting security, 'EVEREST', was conducted on behalf of the State of Ohio by 3 teams, 2 from universities, one private sector cybersecurity.
Thread on the #GrenfellCoverup. By a grotesque post-Grenfell reinterpretation of the Approved Document guidance, the government has been seeking to evade its responsibility for the fire and put the blame on others. Labour, who share approximately equal responsibility from 1/
their time in government, especially from 1999-2010, are complicit in the cover-up. The essence of the matter is that combustible cladding on high rise was always allowed in the national building regulations from their inception in 1965 until 18 June 2017, 4 days after Grenfell,
when @dawes_melanie, Permanent Secretary at @mhclg, in a letter to Local Authority and Housing Association Chief Executives, claimed that Building Regulations guidance required the ACM core to be of 'limited combustibility': assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/upl…
Back in December 2017, with the aid of a useful graphic, Michel Barnier explained that under a UK-EU FTA, the UK would have 'regulatory autonomy' - which is to say that we will not be bound to follow any EU rules and regulations.
He pointed out the UK's red lines: no ECJ jurisdiction, no free movement, no substantial ongoing financial contribution, independent trade policy, and regulatory autonomy, and observed that neither the EEA-EFTA, nor the Swiss, nor the Ukraine, nor the Turkey model were compatible
with them. They were however compatible with an FTA of the type of the CETA and EU-Korea FTAs.
Under these FTAs, Canada and Korea (that is, South Korea) do not generally bind themselves to adopt or conform to a EU laws and regulations.
Farage claimed Wednesday that Barnier said the FTA negotiations will continue 3 years beyond end 2020. In fact it was @Nigel_Farage himself in the European Parliament who said they will take 3 years. Barnier, in response, corrected him. Thread:
