发帖数: 1 | 1 A technology glitch that halted voting in two Georgia counties on Tuesday
morning was caused by a vendor uploading an update to their election
machines the night before, a county election supervisor said.
Voters were unable to cast machine ballots for a couple of hours in Morgan
and Spalding counties after the electronic devices crashed, state officials
said. In response to the delays, Superior Court Judge W. Fletcher Sams
extended voting until 11 p.m.
The counties use voting machines made by Dominion Voting Systems and
electronic poll books — used to sign in voters — made by KnowInk.
The companies “uploaded something last night, which is not normal, and it
caused a glitch,” said Marcia Ridley, elections supervisor at Spalding
County Board of Election. That glitch prevented pollworkers from using the
pollbooks to program smart cards that the voters insert into the voting
machines.
Ridley said that a representative from the two companies called her after
poll workers began having problems with the equipment Tuesday morning and
said the problem was due to an upload to the machines by one of their
technicians overnight.
“That is something that they don’t ever do. I’ve never seen them update
anything the day before the election,” Ridley said. Ridley said she did not
know what the upload contained.
Gabriel Sterling, voting system implementation manager in the secretary of
state’s office, told reporters that the issue likely was a dataset that got
uploaded to the systems, but that they don’t know for certain. He did not
say if the dataset was uploaded by the voting machine vendor.
Sterling told reporters the issue took some time to fix because technicians
had to bring in additional equipment to correct the problem.
Neither Dominion nor KnowInk responded to a request to comment. A
spokesperson for the secretary of state’s office also did not respond to
follow-up questions about who uploaded the dataset and whether it had been
reviewed and tested by anyone beforehand.
Jennifer Doran, elections director for the Morgan County Board of Elections
and Registration, said the issue was with how the KnowInk pollbooks encode a
voter access card that is used with the Dominion voting machines.
When voters sign in at a voting location, poll workers insert a voter access
card into the Poll Pad tablet and encode it for that voter. The card is
then inserted into voting machines to display the proper ballot for that
voter. The glitch apparently prevented poll workers from encoding those
cards.
“Morgan County poll workers did a great job of quickly moving to emergency
backup procedures so that voters were able to continue voting,” Doran said.
She said Dominion technicians fixed the issue.
The counties devised a workaround in some cases by having poll managers use
their own card and a code to initialize the voting machine for each voter.
But this caused long lines at some precincts.
Georgia uses Dominion voting machines and KnowInk Poll Pads statewide —
systems that the state only deployed in every county for the first time this
year after replacing its previous 20-year-old electronic voting systems. It
’s not clear why other Georgia counties did not have the problems Morgan
and Spalding had.

要找替罪羊了。

如果川普真的能够炒了Wray并将Giuniani任命为代理，就热闹了。能不能成事再说，至
