EXCLUSIVE: Dallas County Polling Books Down on Election Day
Dallas Express ^ | 11/07/2023 | Justin DeSales

Posted on 11/08/2023 7:52:52 AM PST by DFG

Electronic pollbooks reportedly went offline at multiple polling sites around Dallas County on Tuesday.

Dallas Republican Party Chair Jennifer Stoddard-Hajdu spoke with The Dallas Express about the incident, noting that election workers have been unable to check in voters.

She said this issue allows for the possibility of voters submitting their ballots at multiple sites throughout the county, claiming that 26 pollbooks were affected, some of which have been offline all day.

Stoddard-Hajdu told The Dallas Express the issue has “been going on all throughout early voting.” Election officials allegedly informed her that faulty equipment was to blame.

“What I’ve been told by the elections administrator is that he thinks the problem is that they’ve got really old equipment and it needs to be updated,” Stoddard-Hajdu told The Dallas Express.

The pollbooks in question were provided by the Omaha-based commercial tech firm Election Systems & Software.

Michael Scarpello, the Dallas County elections administrator, previously told Stoddard-Hajdu that he created a $1.2 million budget item meant to fix routers on the equipment that he felt needed to be replaced.

Scarpello’s budget item, according to Stoddard-Hajdu, was referred to the county’s information technology department but was ultimately rejected.

According to Stoddard-Hajdu, it is unlikely the issue will be fixed by the end of the day. She said it would take a lot of time and new equipment.

“If it’s what they’re saying, which is old equipment, they can’t replace the equipment today,” she said to The Dallas Express.

It is all so above board. Those little mishaps here, there, and everywhere.

Our polling books have never “gone down” because they are made of PAPER. The poll worker finds your name, makes a note you voted, then you sign on the next available line on a separate book.

If you aren’t registered, no voting. Of course, there’s still the ridiculous flaw that you don’t have to show an ID to vote. I keep waiting for the day when I go to vote and they say “Sorry, you already voted.”

Easy-peasey as they say. Reliable, cheap, and Raj doesn’t have to answer the call in Hyderabad. at 3 in the morning.

Did all 380 million Dallas Democrats get their votes counted?

This sounds like the successor to “you already voted” in 2020. The elections must be controlled so people vote for the “right” Dem candidate and no one else, just like there was vote flipping in PA. It’s all part of a sinister plan, which doesn’t work well if we use paper ballots in small precincts and count them all by hand on election night.

"Early Cheating" is just one of the tools for Electioneering.

they need to go "ALL MAIL In" like Oregon and Washington, never a problem with vote counts, no worry about computer glitches, no pesky poll watchers, no need for recounts , no contested elections, and they announce the "winner" even before the sun sets or drop boxes collected.

it is where we are headed , no muss no fuss, no more trumps getting elected [/s}

You know what can’t go “down”? Pollbooks printed on paper.

The switch to these tools of vote fraud is very recent. Poll books used to be on paper. Now they are digital and connected to internet. My own polling station admitted to me that they are. Now they can be changed on the fly as needed.

I would have once thought that people here would be smart enough to know that. There is a sinister reason they went to digital poll books using laptops.

Flaws in the eventual attempt to steal Texas.

Dallas, Bexar, Travis, Harris, and El Paso counties will report 270% more votes than voters.

It’s always the urban, democrat counties, isn’t it? Most counties are small and deep Red, but I never hear about those counties.
