Best of Black Box? 
Votes: 4

Posted on Wednesday, June 8, 2005 - 8:31 am:   

(from "Allosaurs_r_us" at Free Republic

Nope. never heard another word after I asked her if having obviously protected government code, if she herself was not committing a crime.

Your grasp of facts is not impressive. The code is not "government code." It is claimed to be owned by a corporation. However, that is not the code we used to hack the system. (Which should be even more disturbing -- any ol' person can write their own program and stick it in place of the voting machine program. Nice.)

After researching it, I found she has been "working on this report" for better than a year.

Oh? Post link. "This report" is ambiguous. We post many reports. We are working on THIS report, meaning the one regarding the memory card hack of the Diebold optical scan machine (which is different from the central tabulator hack, and the one we did in Leon County is a different central tabulator hack than we did a year ago -- yes, these machines are as full of holes as swiss cheese...)

After googling the possibility of embedded code in the diebold machines, every article on the net with this accusation has her name on it somewhere.

Well, that's progress. At least now we are being credited for our research.

It is all supposition.

The Leon County Election Supervisor corroborated the report on the Leon County Web site. So now it is Black Box Voting (Bev Harris and Kathleen Wynne) AND the documentary film guy AND professor Herbert Thompson AND European computer expert Harri Hursti AND Leon County Supervisor of Elections Ion Sancho, all conspiring to make up a story. Sounds like you are a conspiracy theorist.

I would think if there were any truth to it every DemonRat with any 'puter experience at all would get involved.

As pointed out in the story, the system we hacked is especially popular in democratic jurisdictions.

After close to a year of the first time she made this accusation, she is the only one doing any research.

"This accusation" -- you are mixing your accusations. We are talking about specific hacks, in this case an optical scan memory card hack, which is new. By the way, the central tabulator hack you are referring to was published by me two years ago, not "a year ago." For what it's worth, you have me going under six different names: "Bev Harris" "Kathleen Wynne" "Professor Herbert Thompson" "Harri Hursti" "Thomas James" and "Ion Sancho".

That sure makes it look like a tin foil hat, left wing, moon bat, piece of propaganda to me.

So, acting in the capacity of these six names, I then convinced a television reporter from Tampa and a newspaper reporter from the Tallahassee Democrat that these discoveries are real. Apparently I am a linguist (some of the people in this have foreign accents) and also I do excellent voice impersonations, including being able to switch between men's and women's voices. I also faked the physical voting machine tapes, and did this on camera in front of six witnesses, while being videotaped by two different groups. Wow. I'm very impressive. (And you say I'm the one wearing a tinfoil hat?)

Bev Harris
 

The public must be able to see and authenticate these four essential steps for an election to be public, democratic, and valid: (1) Who can vote (voter list); (2) Who did vote (3) The original count; (4) Chain of custody.
