"The highest priority as a bad guy would be to subvert our election system. The reason is: you can take over a country without firing a shot. If you can decide who the leaders are, if you can put judges, if you can answer constitutional questions any which you want, over a period of time-you're not going to do it in one election, it's going to take a bunch of elections-but you can take over a country. And that would be my top priority (as a bad guy). Nuclear weapons would be a close second, but the top one would be elections." -Jeff Lenburg, nation-state vulnerability expert in the May 9, 2022 Otero County, New Mexico Emergency meeting *** Let's start with where we are headed. We are on our way to a future where every voter's vote is counted and 100% auditable immediately. See this video clip from Col. Phil Waldron in a Nye County Commissioner's meeting in March 2022 where a resolution was passed by the commissioners 5-0 to remove electronic voting equipment from future elections. (They weren't the only county in Nevada to do so.) A win for the enemy is to keep electronic voting machines and systems. We cannot allow that to happen. That is, if you understand the anomalies, indications, and evidence showing what these machines and their code are capable of. Elections have become too complicated. And complexity breeds corruption. By contrast, simplicity yields success. Elections should be: - A single day, probably a national holiday - Machine-less - Decentralized to promote local oversight and control - Conducted with paper ballots, hand counted, that are 100% auditable immediately Elections should not have: - Dropboxes - Mail-in ballots - Long absentee and early voting periods - Machine-driven check-in (epollbooks) - Machine-driven counting and tallying (tabulators) - Machine-driven adjudicating and recording (election management systems) In Minnesota, the already opaque computer systems are increasingly networked and centralized. When centralized, it is easier for just a few bad actors to control election outcomes. Those who control the machines, control who wins. This short book will shine light on exactly how that happens. *** This digital version of this book is completely free. If you learn something from it, please share it generously.
