WASHINGTON ―Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s legal team has released a copy of a polygraph examination report regarding her sexual assault allegation against Brett Kavanaugh.
Blasey is set to testify on Thursday before the Senate Judiciary Committee, where she’ll be questioned by Democratic Senators and an outside counsel hired by the all-male panel of Republicans on the committee.
Two other women ― Julie Swetnick and Deborah Ramirez ― have come forward to accuse Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct.
While polygraphs are not considered reliable enough for use in court proceedings, the letter is another piece of evidence submitted by Blasey’s team to back her claims that Kavanaugh assaulted her at a house party in the suburbs of D.C. in the early 1980s, when both were in high school. Her team previously submitted affidavits indicating that she’d told friends about the assault long before Kavanaugh was nominated to the nation’s highest court.
Republicans have refused to subpoena Kavanaugh’s friend Mark Judge, who Blasey said was present during the assault

This article is written for those who just arrived here from another planet. The number of commonly known facts left out is amazing.
What were the questions?
Trump put it best: Huffpo is a glorified blog.
Another article says it’s just a summary, so most likely this is Fake News.
What next, an appearance from Long Dong Silver himself?
LOL.

How come she was in Maryland on August 7, 2018 for a polygraph? How did she get there? Did she fly? Walk? Run? Doesn’t she live in California?
LMAO at the meme. The absurdity of it all.
There's a handwritten statement that was apparently prepared by Buzzy Ford, and it looks like they only asked her two questions:
1. Is any part of this false?
2. Has any part of this been altered?
She was asked exactly two questions about the truthfulness of her statement. I do not believe this is consistent with careful polygraph procedure. Also the person giving the test the setting the circumstances are all important if you want to create in the person that type of apprehension that may give a physiological response when they lie.
She was asked two questions, and two questions only:
Is any part of your statement false?
Did you make up any part of your statement?
LOL! Real thorough polygraph there.
The polygraph story is a distraction. The real story is that she won’t release her psychological records which supposedly support her story but which also are supposedly contradicting. This behavior would not ever be allowed in a court of law with this type of allegation. And of course the polygraph test if that’s what it was would not be admissible.
The pound me too hags are stupid and vicious. Grassley and Fineswine are both arguments for not having 80 year olds run anything. The strange thing to me is that even.if everything Ford says is true, I do not see a problem. As I u understand it Kavanaugh is not accused of actually doing anything. Maybe it is.just me.
I can’t find anything to back this up.
I don’t think 90% of people understand what a Polygraph is or how it is read (in application). It DOES NOT spit out answers “TRUTH” or “LIE”. It is a series of dynamic data that simply measures biological responses. Talking changes the biological readings. Breathing changes the biological readings.
Questions are asked and answered and marks are made to indicate on a graph where the subject was answering. Then, someone subjectively decides if the readings constitute enough of a variation to consider whether the subject was nervous or otherwise affected by the question and their response. THIS IS WHY THEY ARE NOT ADMISSIBLE IN COURT. Her Lawyers and friends administered and subjectively graded the report results. It’s a red herring.
Consequently, there are a number of ways to fake a polygraph. Opiods or other intoxicants can relax the body enough to flatten lines and affect autonomic biological changes. Asking the right base line questions can affect the results.
If for instance, the first base line question is, “Has anyone ever seen you masturbate?” The biological response to that question, regardless of the answer you give, is going to set up a base line that is likely to register any stressful question as “NORMAL”.
The “Liar Detector” only measures stress levels associated with questions and answers. Then the test results are subjective.
Why would she have even bothered to take a polygraph if no crime was committed and no trial and no reason for it? Quite odd.
In other words they knew they could get her through those 2 very broad questions. Any legitimate polygraph examiner would never limit the examination to that
