Donald Trump took to Twitter today to say he would always challenge Dominion Voting Systems voting machine results. 

“What does GSA being allowed to preliminarily work with the Dems have to do with continuing to pursue our various cases on what will go down as the most corrupt election in American political history? We are moving full speed ahead. Will never concede to fake ballots & ‘Dominion,’” Trump tweeted. 

The secretive voting machines manufacturer has been accused of problems across the country. 

Dominion Voting machines have been questioned in several states, including Nevada. 

There have been several reported glitches with the voting machines in the Nov. 3 election, including at least one Michigan county claiming it resulted in an altered vote. 

In the three states that Trump has filed lawsuits regarding the election, Dominion is the provider of the voting machines.

The glitch in Antrim County was only discovered because the county is largely Republican and the county’s results showed that Joe Biden had won the county.

There was also an issue in Wayne County when multiple ballot machines stopped working and delayed the results

Michigan Republican Party Chairwoman Laura Cox wants the state to examine the rest of the state’s results to confirm if there were any other similar issues.

In Georgia, one professor says that the ballot-marking devices that were used for the election were known to be problematic last year. 

Douglas Jones, an associate professor of Computer Science at the University of Iowa, told Peach Tree Times that he worried about the ballot-marking devices, saying that the ballots have QR codes and that those can’t be read by the human eye.

Jones suggested the country needed minimal national standards for federal elections. He said rejection rates for ballots vary depending on the state.

There have been solid reports of voting machines hacks and irregularities that could have been hacks in the past. 

Susan Bernecker ran for Jefferson Parish Council in 1995 in Louisiana. She didn’t win and when she and others went to tour the voting machines, she discovered that when she would select her name on the voting machine, it didn’t always select her name.

She later participated in a test by Finnish computer programmer Harri Hursti called the Hursti Hack, which showed that votes could be altered on a Diebold optical scan voting machine. 

“If one wants to create a false zero report using the methodology previously described, while pre-stuffing the ballot box, there appear to be no safeguards to catch the manipulation,” Hursti wrote in his findings. 

The GSA yesterday announced they were moving forward with the transition to pave the way for a Biden presidency.
