@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.

"The Guardian has now confirmed that Gabbard is running a Trump-approved, independent review of the 2020 election focused on voting-machine vulnerabilities and potential foreign interference, separate from a Justice Department criminal probe. Her role underscores President Trump’s renewed push to scrutinize the election he lost to Joe Biden." ~ Aaron Parnas #Trump #Republicans #elections #voting #BigLie #ConspiracyTheories #TulsiGabbard /20 https://aaronparnas.substack.com/p/major-mid-day-update-first-criminal

For decades, the Justice Department’s civil rights division has sent attorneys and staff members to monitor polling places across the country in both federal and non-federal elections. The monitors are tasked with ensuring the compliance of federal voting rights laws.

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

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

@McSpocky how is deregistering voters even legal?

No wounder #Texas publicly threatened #OSCE #ElectionMonitors.

Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) is suing the DOJ for failing to turn over records on communications with officials from states like #Florida and #Missouri who reportedly blocked the deployment of DOJ #ElectionMonitors to polling sites during #Election2022, which likely impeded the DOJ #CivilRights Division's ability to protect federal #voting rights in those states.

CREW previously requested records from the DOJ and has received none to date.
