@wdlindsy see, shite like this is why #Germany banned #VotingMachines and only allows mail-in and in-person paper ballout votes.

• Because #integrity and #accuracy of #elections need to be publicly verifyable by anyone eligible to vote and without need to rely on third parties!

Whereas some #US states like #Texas actively hindered #ElectionMonitoring and threatened #ElectionMonitors in violation of it's #OSCE membership obligations.

@hllizi Unlike some "#BananaRepublics" like #Texas ¹²³⁴, #Germany openly welcomes #ElectionMonitoring as key to #transparency in it's #democracy.

• As long as one doesn't tamper with the election process, one's free to observe and record the entire process. Literally counting the number of people entering and the number of ballouts put in the box.

@dogzilla how is that even legal?

• I mean I ask myself that since the day Texas tried to prosecute OSCE election monitors for doing their job as per USA's OSCE membership.

@jimthewhyguy Granted, there's a reason #Germany banned #VotingMachines:

• To literally prevent such conspiracies and allow for transparent #ElectionMonitoring...

Whereas #Texas threatened #OSCE #ElectionMonitors for doing their work!
