Hacking Democracy

Tyler Durden's picture

“Those who cast the votes decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything.” – Joe Stalin

With the mainstream media lambasting Trump for daring to suggest the election process is rigged - despite hard evidence - this is the hack that proved America’s elections can be stolen using a few lines of computer code.

The ‘Hursti Hack’ in this video is an excerpt from the feature length Emmy nominated documentary ‘Hacking Democracy’.

The hack of the Diebold voting system in Leon County, Florida, is real. It was verified by computer scientists at UC Berkeley.

I am shocked that UC Berkley corroborated the hijacking of democracy by the socialists.

You shouldn't be.  With their deep ties to all things atomic, they're staying true to their desire to shake the foundations of society, reason and development.

 

Truth is truth, let the cards fall where they may.

Oh please! It's Republicans who are known for rigging elections, not Democrats! Bush stole the election from Al Gore! We should have had two Nobel Peace Prize winners in a row as President and a carbon tax, but instead we got Bush and his friends in the oil companies! Trump is just upset that accredited polls are showing Hillary with a strong lead after her outstanding performance in the debate! She's offering "good-paying" jobs in green energy, and promising to stand up to Putin! What is Trump promising that could possibly benefit ordinary Americans?

Could Militant Trump Supporters Steal The Election From Hillary?

This article needs a new title ASAP. 'Hacking democracy' is so vague. I didn't realise I was going to watch the electronic voting machines be hacked. This would be a huge view article.

Paper ballots is the answer. With both sides there to watch at every poll. You should be there yourself.

Paper ballots with a dyed finger. If it is good enough for those we impose democracy upon...

Are we going to see fights between the different sides each trying to rig the votes? Battle of the coders!

Will there be enough supporters on either side so that they are watching each other like hawks to stop fraud?

Totally agree with your first sentence. Lets not forget Ohio 04 either .

Your enemies the repubs gleefully installed this stuff, and after running an unelectable Maniac in 08 have to face the pospect of the other side controlling the machines!

The rest of your post is the usual shit. We all know its supposed to be funny , and it was-say about two years ago.

one of the main reasons to vote for trump is to see your schtick change. One can hope for that.

(hope and change, get it?) A horse walks into a bar-bartender says 'why the long face?"

A gay Muslim walks up to the bar in the nightclub. Bartender asks whatll it be?

What everyone needs to understand is, communists & socialists strip themselves (psychologically) of any moral or ethical restraints in pursuit of power...it is why they always wind up in contradictory and hypocritical positions on EVERYTHING...they have no moral compass.

You can always rely on them exposing themselves to you for what they really are by what they accuse others of.

For example:

1) The Clinton Foundation is in fact one giant tax dodge and money laundering operation for the politically powerful. So they accuse others of "not paying their fair share" in taxes.

2) They (without the slightest twinge of hypocrisy bound by any sense of morals or ethics) will accuse others of rigging the election as they THEMSELVES attempt to rig elections as seen by its media complex over-weighting the polls in their favor, abuse of the mentally deficient/homeless to incite violence (as exposed by O'Keefe in Project Veritas) even as they decry violence by singing Kumbaya into useful idiots ears.

3) They will scream about "international adventurism" even as their candidate discusses the option of destroying a foreign embassy that we are not at war with, in a completely different foreign country which we are an ally with, to kill the citizen of different country (that we are also not at war with) to stop him from telling the truth about THEM.

4) They can (and do) target entire classes of people to reach their ultimate goal of unlimited, centralized power without ever acknowledging the destruction of the whole. The black family structured on the traditional concept of one father and one mother for example, with the father supplanted by the state OR an entire middle class of all races with ObamaCare. They say it is "good for the whole" even as they rip it to shreds.

Which brings us to a little something they like to call "the law".

If "the law" is provably corrupt and weighted toward the maintenance of the state itself (instead of the people) can it even be properly described as a "law" we (the people) should abide by, just because oligarchs, politicians & judges say we must? Any "law" developed on the concept of force & coercion instead of the consent of the people along with the ongoing demonstration of justice & equality for all standing before it cannot be maintained as we once knew "law".

Again, Hitler, Mao, Stalin, Chavez, Castro (etc) all had "laws"...ALL in one aspect or another detrimental to the people as a whole.

I say no, that thing is dead, dying from a thousand cuts with the last blood letting drop spilled on a tarmac by Low-Renta.

The tree of Liberty is dying of thirst.  This video should be complulsary viewing, those of us who are old school IT know how easy it is to hack anything computerised.

 

I don't want to see bloodshed on the streets, however.  I believe the good people of the US have 2 decisions.

 

Allow the demons to run amok with this election putting the rodent into power again, with her degenerative husband, take the world into WW3 and the lands will drown in blood from billions of non chosen, non elite blood.

Alternatively, the tree of liberty and her seeds are planted far and wide, the people, rise up and giving thanks for all that is great, with the sea of knowledge and truth washing away the satanic chosen few who have done so much harm to so many, for so long.

Well said. Couldn't have said it better myself.

 

I just wanted to add that they also are furious on different hackers that hack themselves and their own privacy, and used much energy to point out how illegal and unethical it all is.  The fact that they themselves have spent billions and billions of dollars on hacking programs to monitor all internet accounts and all cell phones in the world around the clock to spy on peoples privacy seems to be quite alreight. Hell they even tapped into the transatlantic cables to hack the internet traffic directly, and they forced themselves admission to private companies network servers.  Yet they blame Putin , Snowden and wikileaks for being the bad guys.  They not only lack moral compasses, they are all sociopaths and perhaps even psykopaths too.

Its another great point, they sell this to useful idiots as being for their own "safety & security" even as they will tell them they cannot and will not guarantee it.

But you must prostrate yourself before them (and it) anyways, conform your lives to it, around it, go along with it because that useful idiot standing beside you cannot understand what it is and believes it is "useful".

To whom and for what?

What it really is, is a combination of several things, their own statist-paranoia (where everyone EXCEPT the chosen few) are treated as a SUSPECT FIRST...just think about the logic of that...that, you are a suspect until you prove otherwise, no charges, no evidence, just suspicion...of everyone else, in what rational nation is this "normal"? And of course, their never ceasing quest to know all they can about you (data mining) and the "authorities" creating jobs! jobs! jobs! for people who would otherwise only be qualified as dog catchers & parking lot attendants. 

captain-nemo's picture

Yes, they sell it to us like it should be a real saftey for us , so they can take down the terrorists and stop terrorist attacks before they occur, but since the spying programs became offical known dozen of terrorist attacks has occured and no terrorist attacks has been prevented. Does really NSA think the terrorists are so stupid that they use facebook, twitter or cell phones to plan a terrorist attack?

 

No. It's not the terrorists they want to monitor, it's the people, and so far it's just small time criminals, and violators of the mighty political correctness code that has been hunted down and prosecuted.

We have discussed all of this before, many years ago:

Sect. 16. THE state of war is a state of enmity and destruction: and therefore declaring by word or action, not a passionate and hasty, but a sedate settled design upon another man's life, puts him in a state of war with him against whom he has declared such an intention, and so has exposed his life to the other's power to be taken away by him, or any one that joins with him in his defence, and espouses his quarrel; it being reasonable and just, I should have a right to destroy that which threatens me with destruction: for, by the fundamental law of nature, man being to be preserved as much as possible, when all cannot be preserved, the safety of the innocent is to be preferred: and one may destroy a man who makes war upon him, or has discovered an enmity to his being, for the same reason that he may kill a wolf or a lion; because such men are not under the ties of the commonlaw of reason, have no other rule, but that of force and violence, and so may be treated as beasts of prey, those dangerous and noxious creatures, that will be sure to destroy him whenever he falls into their power.

It doesn't look like anyone else is mentioning this so I will post it again further up the thread:

Tha diebold machine wasn't "hacked" as such. They simply adjusted the fractions associated with a yes vote and a no vote. The scam was explained fully here amongst other places:

In '04 it was allegedly a "man in the middle" hack. Likely couldn't have happened without a corrupt SoS in place, but of course Blackwell was never proven guilty of anything but poor judgement. Then again, the investigation never really came full circle once the IT guru came to an unfortunate end.

They couldn't "fix" Brexit because they still used paper ballots, which were retained for the purposes of a recount as necessary.

Urban Redneck's picture

Recounting does no good if illegal ballots make it into the ballot box. It doesn't matter whether those ballots are paper or electronic, or whether voters are provided receipts.

Theoretical iFraud YouTube videos get clicks, but reality is simpler. Despite the publication of undercover videos of the current architects admitting to how they ply their craft, and investigations and convictions in myriad jurisdictions, the tinfoil hatters cling to their mental masturbation Diebold fantasies. .

One living and law abiding citizen, one vote is the law, and the conspirators' documented efforts attack that standard on all three fronts.

philipat's picture

Yes, but in the UK ballot-stuffing, as it is known, is not easy because the votes are transported and counted in full public view with impartial observers at every step. I'm not saying it cannot happen, just that it is difficult to do so to any meaningful extent. As the Brexit vote confirmed. Also in the UK, voters names are included in registered list and only ONE local polling station is nominated for each ward. The person attends with photo ID then his/her name is crossed off the list and the ballot is cast. Seems to work just fine...

As I understand it, unlike in this video, most electronic voting machines in the US are "touchscreen" so there are not even any paper ballots to recount? Just the way the elites like it. And remember that many States use machines provided by a Company owned by Soros. So they must be good, right?

Incidentally, exit polls never lie, which is why the MSM will no do them in this election. They want to be able to say, "well it shouldn't be any surprise, the polls all predicted a wide SHitlery victory". Which is why as many other neutral Organisations as possible should conduct as many exit polls as possible.

back to basics's picture

You should have added that Brexiters showed up at the polls with their own PENS to mark their ballot. They learned from the Scottish independence referendum that the PENCIL (which was provided) marked ballots can be altered and didn't want to make the same mistake.

GreatUncle's picture

Also the other point is ...

The counters are the weak link in the chain, they will know and loads of counters (this I think is what the electoral college was supposed to represent) who know the truth and you just expanded the revelament.

Note:- Only London and Cardiff returned a BREMAIN, the centres of power for stuffing ballot boxes but you could not stuff an extra million votes into Londons box it would be noticed.

Scotland wants out of the UK, so BREMAIN it was although I would not consider IMMEDIATELY joining the EU a good choice.

"[In the UK] the votes are transported and counted in full public view with impartial observers at every step"

This is not true at all. There's a good talk on video by Max Mussen about this, he says he has worked in many elections. It is obvious from Mussen and many other reports that the strict laws of elections (e.g. intact seals on ballot boxes) are not enforced. This is it:

https://youtu.be/yar4PTvj4Bk

The greatest scope for voting fraud is postal votes and here, Moslems in Britain lead the way.

There is corruption and criminality wherever you are, it's just a matter of degree, how far the rot has spread. The typical election worker in Britain, counting the votes, is a teacher, and they are notoriously left-wing.

Urban Redneck's picture

But in the US, ballot stiffing is the method of choice, and has been practiced for decades. First they would go room to room in the old folks home and bus them to the polls and "help" them cast their ballots. Then when absentee balloting was expanded, they didn't need the busing anymore, and just went room to room helping the elderly and insane complete their absentee ballots and disposing of those that weren't completed for the correct candidate. Somewhere along the way they also not only stepped up voting by the dead but also added the incarcerated or paroled. At the individual level, as more people started owning vacation homes, it facilitated their voting in multiple jurisdictions simultaneously, or enterprising party apparatchiks voting for them. After AL Gore invented the internet in the 90's and Boards of Election started publishing voter rolls online it became practical to identify all those hedgetards who spend election day hiding on their parents' basements couches, and we've started to see more of them vote. This election will be interesting in that regard, to see if in even more states, we start seeing 5-digit cases of voter being denied ballots or issued absentee ballots because they have "already" voted absentee, of course a few of these fuckwits are individuals getting caught trying to commit voter fraud.

So literally the only group of people dumber than the hedgetards who wank to Diebold fantasies are some of the PhDickwads who write papers about voter fraud. As to the former - even the mass fraud allegations in Ohio didn't allege tampering with individual machines, the apparent fraud (if it actually existed) involved manipulating the precinct level counts from late reporting precincts at a central "data processing" facility (read some laptop in a hotel room or something). If it actually happened, backfilling the ballot boxes, whether digital, paper, or even the Rube Goldberg Chicago mechanical monsters is simple process of a corrupt election official pushing the button, scanning the paper, or pulling the lever a few extra times (just like they do when the test machines before the election and before the supposedly reset them).

As to the PhDickwads, when someone writes a scholarly paper that alleges there have been something like only 10 cases of documented voter fraud over the last two election cycles, they are committing academic fraud. You cannot have an advanced degree and plead ignorance the errors in both methodology and presumption. Virginia alone had more than 30 convictions, after the last election, but incuding them would have required an edumacated asswipe to check not only the Federal, but state court dockets, which is actually where most of these cases are tried. Then there's the whole methodology of using single convictions as a proxy for actual single cases of voter fraud. That's deficient on so many levels that I could write another lengthy post just on that.

So in summary - stupid ZH hedgetards masturbating to fantasies of George Soros fucking a Diebold machine... despite internet & video evidence of him and his ilk cutting checks to stuff ballot boxes (for those who cannot be bothered to read court filings). If people get the government they deserve, George Soros deserves to continue stuffing ballot boxes to heart's content.

BTW - I hope this isn't an actual picture of a English ballot box- http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/what-time-polls-open-close-7898374 , because if it is, and the English haven't figured out how to stuff it, then the English now have lower aggregate intellectual capacity than all those sub Saharan African countries with IQ averages between 59 and 69.

Now you can swing a vote through paper about 5% maximum through entering fraudulent paper by quantity then it stands out.

The counting machine, you flip the little data bit that says who you voted for and the number of votes does not change.

Well how you going to flip such a large number to put Clinton into the lead? You can't have 120% of a population voting you have to be flipping the votes off the others.

All votes have a registration slip given to the voter when you can look up and see who you voted for. That must be the same like a receipt. Those receipts can then on a check be used to determine if the machine is rigged.

Urban Redneck's picture

The popular vote is irrelevant. The game is to get 270 electors. In every previous election both side have 120-150 locked regardless of the candidates so a US election is realistically a battle for 120-150 electors in battleground states, which often can be swayed by a handful of percentage points, which can be accomplished by targeting a few specific counties in specific state with local officials at least willing to look the other way. And if this election of electors is even close, there is going to be another battle over the four weeks following Nov. 8 where the establishment will maneuver to change the allegiances of the electors. Trump upends the traditional maps and alters the calculus, but it's still calculus.

another reason I vote absentee.

1. I have thought it fixed for decades, don't want to waste much effort on it

2. harder to steal it, although absentee ballots found floating in the San Francisco bay several times before, when we had a black mayor Willie Brown.

AVmaster's picture

This is why you vote with paper, ID cards, etc etc not any of this electronic crap. 

And this is why trump said he would not accept a outcome because the outcome can not be trusted at all period, and if he loses, there will be a nationwide hand recount.

Magnum's picture

Easy for you to say.  I recall going to the local polling station, I think in 2008, and the touchscreen machines were the only method of voting.  There was no paper ballot or printout.  

Since then, my state has gone to all mail-in ballot.  To their credit, there was a contested election recently and every paper was counted, I believe manually.  The result of the hand re-count was almost identical to the initial machine count.

Obama is indignant that any candidate could question the integrity of the US election process, that such criticism could undermine democracy in America by putting doubts in people's minds.

 

I am indignant that he is not.

chiswickcat's picture

I find it very strange that being concerned about and questioning the safety and robustness of the democratic process is somehow, 'underming democracy' It smacks of Owellian double speak. Somehow, the narrative has turned into, "to question the democratic process, (to be concerned about safeguarding democracy) is anti democratic" Are people really this stupid to join Obama's mantra? It is similar to "to find out what's in it, you need to vote for it" or "it's not what's in the e-mails that is important, what's important is that the Russians hacked them" (irronically, whomever did hack and expose illegal corrupt activity by and collusion by our leaders, in fact, is helping the democratic process)

George Bush electronic voting expert Michael Connell could tell you all about voting fraud but he died in a plane crash after someone in December 2008 sabotaged his plane. The investigation into his death went nowhere, crooked Ohio authorities saw to that.

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/republican-it-guru-dies-in-plane-crash/

Following Last Friday's fatal accident, CBS Affiliate WOIO reported that Connell, who had recently been subpoenaed to testify in relation to a lawsuit alleging vote rigging in the 2004 Ohio election, was warned at least twice about flying his plane because his plane might be sabotaged.
