"Officials say Russia's ability to change vote tallies nationwide is limited." As in limited to the swing states??? Seriously, what kind of statement is this?! 1/ https://twitter.com/nicoleperlroth/status/1319359563892584448
Unfortunately, it is now too late now to remove the cellular modems in WI, MI, FL, MN, IN, IL, & RI, which connect both the precinct ballot scanners & county election management systems (which aggregate precinct totals) to the internet. 2/ https://www.vice.com/en/article/3kxzk9/exclusive-critical-us-election-systems-have-been-left-exposed-online-despite-official-denials
But it is not too late for election officials to not use them. If only a highly respected individual with an enormous public presence would sound the alarm. My platform is not large enough to gain sufficient leverage. It just isn’t. And I’m so worried. 3/
Here is a letter sent in September to officials in each of the above states about the dangers posed by these cellular modems. It’s signed by almost 30 highly respected election-security experts & groups. Every one of these election officials ignored it. 4/ https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/7225186-Wireless-Modems-2020-9-15-20-FL.html
And another excellent piece on this subject. 5/ https://www.govtech.com/security/Experts-Florida-Voting-Machines-Ripe-for-Foreign-Hackers.html
And my video. Except now we probably have to dumb it down to #DontUseTheModems. Which is better than nothing, which is where we are now. 6/
7/ We also need robust manual election audits overseen by @philipbstark (not people who spread misinformation & ignore the chain of custody) b4 certifying results in every swing state. Officials must agree NOW. @JocelynBenson @WI_Elections @FLSecofState
