Contrary to Grarpamp's misleadingly abridged quotation of me, I actually wrote in my article: "To date, speculation is all that's possible" referring specifically to the identity of the party or parties issuing legal threats to Coffee County. "To date" because I believe open meetings law will eventually enable journalists/litigants to make it clear who the party or parties were. But Grarpamp if you already have tangible proof of the legal threat(s) beyond what to date can be reasonably speculated, feel free to publish it now and thereby help everyone. There are definitely arguments to be made for openly publishing the Dominion Voting Systems proprietary code -- a la the Vault 7 megaleak -- but these MAGA or MAGA-ish operatives who intruded on the Coffee County elections building have NOT done that. They have only made (portions of?) the code available, in contrast, to a subset of their own allies for their own partisan purposes, more Leak Keeper-type behavior. And, as at CPAC recently, they have misrepresented what the proprietary code they made off with contains. Setting aside the actual operatives' actual dishonest and illegal actions, someone could counter-argue that making the Dominion proprietary code openly available would be less like Vault 7 and more like jeopardizing needed social services -- e.g., fire trucks, hospitals -- that in today's world are unfortunately run by the state. There are legit experts now, e.g. J Alex Halderman, assessing the code, and all that's linked in my article, including Halderman's report recently unsealed by the federal judge in the case against the Georgia Secretary of State. Grarpamp's takes reflect his failure of basic reading comprehension. So one could assume if the Dominion Voting Systems code is someday leaked openly in full -- and it may well be before all this is over -- Grarpamp would not be among these able to read it and produce thoughtful analysis.

The article debunks itself right there. Just as pathetic as Rat's emptywheel and palmerreport articles.
And the public, thus any members of it, has right to obtain inspect copy and distribute all election SW and HW as they see fit.
And if you can't build a voting machine that can stand up to even such basic attacks, then quit using fucking voting machines.
Nor do we see Douglas Lucas acknowledging the actual well known election fraud facts, such as the TWITTER FILES, Wholly Biased Democrat Controlled Fake News Media, CRIMINAL IMPEACHABLE Joe Biden's $10Million bribes, Hillary Russia Hoax, 50 Deep State Agents signed Biden Laptop coverup letter, the two false impeachments, the Zuckerberg Soros Gates limitless millions of fraudulent democrat electioneering partnerships, violent gun toting murdering Democrats endorsing and inciting the threatening summer of violence, breaking state election laws, plandemic3, yet more free-shit handouts, and much more.
Lucas would do better to copy the SW himself and try to exploit and publicly expose the silly machines that way, instead of trying to claim without any evidence whatsoever that hundreds of individual Repub voters are going to walk up to vote and exploit the machines in realtime on election day via the touchscreens to modify counts within count anomaly detection thresholds, because that's all that *copying* will let you do without discoverably breaking physical seals to upload new code.
Trump probably wasn't far off when estimating that just the known facts above contributed ~17% vote shift, none of which involved touching any vote machine at all.
Even if putting the known fraud influence at 5%, Trump still won. And Democracy is a violent failed scam that will never work. Whether you like or accept those facts or not is irrelevant.
