How the Dems pulled off the steal in Maricopa County, Arizona

We now know how the Democrats rigged the Arizona election.

Technicians from Dominion programmed the scanners in several voting centers known to be in heavily-Republican neighborhoods so they wouldn't scan ballots.

More specifically, voters would insert their market ballot into the scanner but it would be ejected without being scanned.  Some voters tried this 15 or 20 times with the same result.

As reported on local TV stations, poll workers reported the problems to unnamed "supervisors," and were instructed to give voters two choices: either "spoil" their ballot and start over, or put their ballot in a slot cunningly called "door number 3."  Voters were told their ballot would be taken to the "central tabulating center" and would be scanned there.

Whatever device "door #3" actually was, so many ballots were placed in it that it had to be emptied several times before 3pm.

Around 3pm a "technician" came to the polling place and "rebooted" the scanners, which worked fine from then on.

Off-site supervisors--unnamed, communicating by phone--instructed poll workers that ballots in "door #3" were to be placed in "black bags," which would be picked up and taken to the central tabulating center for scanning.

The bags were sealed and picked up.  There is no indication the ballots in them were ever scanned.  Unverified reports claim the ballots were removed from the bags and placed in the location used for scanned ballots--after which there would be no way to determine if they'd been scanned and counted.

If true, it's brilliant, since the so-called malfunction would only have affected a few heavily-Republican polling places.  When the ballots in the black bags--that couldn't be successfully scanned at the polling place due to the mysterious malfunction--arrived at the central tabulating center they would simply be mixed with scanned ballots, without actually being scanned.  No need to destroy ballots.

Also: the county election board set up a website that it claimed would let voters see if their ballot had been counted.  Very reassuring, eh?  But thousands of people who voted on election day reported that when they checked that site, the system said their vote had NOT been counted (i.e. scanned).

One "election monitor" reported that the county's system had apparently been programmed to report that the inquiring voter's ballot had been scanned when that was NOT true.  Instead the system seems to have been programmed to return a "Yes it's been scanned" based NOT on scanning but on the fact that the voter had merely checked in at the polling place.

If that's true, the Dems have surely changed the relevant code from the bogus result to the correct one by now.  Only a full forensic examination of all accesses to the code would reveal that it had been changed back to have the stated effect.
 
Maricopa County election judge Michele Swinick has reported what she experienced in one of the county's voting places on election day.

Swinick was working as a judge at the Islamic Voting Center in Scottsdale.  She reports that the neighborhood is heavily Republican: there are so few declared Democrats that the second most numerous party designation at this polling place is “no party affiliation.”

Swinick spent the entire day checking in voters, and said she checked in very few declared Democrats.

Swinick says that in tests the night before the election the "tabulators" (ballot scanners) all worked perfectly, but that on election day, starting with the first ballots inserted into the scanners, the machines were rejecting inserted ballots without scanning them.  Voters re-inserted their ballots up to 12 times with very few successful scans.

[A Democrat official later claimed the problem was caused by "nervous voters" who were inserting the ballots with the wrong alignment.  This was videoed and broadcast on the national news.  No one asked why this alleged nervous "alignment problem" only afflicted Republican-heavy areas.]

Poll workers later estimated that for the first three hours of voting only about 1 in 10 ballots were successfully scanned.

Voters whose ballots wouldn't scan were given two choices by poll workers:  they could either "spoil" their ballots (trash them) and try again, or they could drop their ballot into a "section" [whether a box or other type of receptacle hasn't been specifed] called “Door #3.”

Swinick says their voting inspector had to empty the container for ballots in “Door #3” three times by early afternoon because the box was "jamming" because it was too full.  

Swinick says ballots aren’t supposed to be removed from that box until polls close, but they made an exception because the box was jamming from being too full.

Swinick reports that between 3:30 pm and 4:00 pm a technician came to the voting place and "rebooted the tabulators (ballot scanners), which solved the problem.

Swinick’s "inspector" told her an offsite supervisor had instructed workers to put all the ballots that hadn't been scanned into a separate bag, and to label them “misreads.”  Swinick told UncoverDC that she personally signed the sticker placed over the bag’s zipper, and that these bags were then supposedly sent to the "tabulation center" where they would presumably be scanned.

Swinick said when ballots won't scan, normal procedure is for poll workers to run those ballots through the scanners one more time before sending them to the center, but she says this wasn't done in this case.  This is significant because after the technician rebooted scanners they were working perfectly, so the ballots could have been scanned at the polling place--except the unnamed offsite supervisor had instructed the ballots to be bagged for scanning at the tabulating center.

Brilliant.

The county election board had a website to allow voters to confirm that their vote had been counted.  However, Swinick says the website seems to have been programmed to report that a ballot had been scanned based on the voter’s “check-in” at the polling place.  

She said her roommate--one of the first voters at the Islamic Center--tried to scan his ballot 15 times without success.  He was then told to drop it in "door #3."

About 9 pm the roommate checked the county website, which reported his vote had been counted.  Swinick says it's impossible for his vote to have been counted by 9 pm since when she left the voting place an hour earlier the black bags containing the unscanned ballots hadn't been picked up from the voting place.  Also, they were supposed to be taken to a "meeting point" and transferred to other transporters who would take them on to the tabulation center.

For his ballot to have been counted, it would have also needed to be sorted and hand-counted by a team at that center--all of which would have had to happen in an hour, which she felt wasn't possible.

Swinick says her supervisor threatened to fire her if she revealed what she'd seen.  

UncoverDC asked Swinick what she thought was going on, given what she personally witnessed.  She said
   “In my opinion the machines were programmed to do this. They isolated the ballots [they didn't want to count] in 223 bags. The hard part for them in 2020 and during the primary was getting the [number of] ballots to match their manufactured machine count."

She said placing unscanned ballots in the black bags and then mixing them in with scanned ballots at the tabulating center without scanning them solved that problem.  The unscanned ballots wouldn't appear in any total and could be replaced by the same number of fraudulent ballots to make the reported count match the number of voters who checked in at the affected polling places.
After Democrat governor candidate Hobbs was declared to have won, no investigation would be undertaken.
