#electionworkers — Public Fediverse posts

@ShredderFeeder

Can someone use #AI or #OCR to get the actual numbers into #alttext ?

As a #blind #voter who encountered issues at the polls this #election cycle, this information would have helped me greatly. I went to #vote on the first day of #EarlyVoting

Our county uses #verity voting equipment. This includes an #ATI - #AudioTactileInterface. A #voter can listen to the ballot in any of the four supported languages and use a dial and button to make their selections.

Because of past experience with intrusive #ElectionWorkers, the first thing I do is turn off the screen. It didn't help this time.

My particular #ballot style had 72 items. I don't remember the number of the item I was on, (First Court of Appeals, Place 9) when one election worker told another that I would need help. I said aloud that I did not need help, and that, if I did, I could ask for help at that time. Someone said that the machine might "time out" (which is not true - this is a misunderstanding - when a voter is qualified, they get a code to enter into the machine. That code expires after 30 minutes. I'd already entered it). At that point, I very carefully completed my ballot, then took the time to ensure my selections for all ballot items were as I intended. It took me about an hour overall.

I tried to file an #ADA #complaint. I asked the election workers for the complaint form. They did not provide it, and did not believe they had such a thing (they are supposed to, I've served as an #ElectionJudge - there is a stack of them in the same folder as the required ADA information that is to be posted).

They gave me a phone number to call, and the person taking my report understood me to say the equipment had timed out, so the fix was to replace it.

The ADA complaint form is also on the website, where I did complete it. I wish I'd had a voter protection number to call.

Judge Orders #Giuliani to Forfeit Millions in Assets to #ElectionWorkers He #Defamed

The onetime personal attorney to #Trump has seven days to turn over his Manhattan condo, a vintage Mercedes-Benz & other possessions.

A federal judge on Tues ordered Rudolph W. Giuliani to turn over most of his possessions & available cash to a receivership controlled by the 2 #Georgia election workers he defamed after the last presidential #election.

#RudyGiuliani has agreed to NEVER again publicly accuse #Georgia #ElectionWorkers #RubyFreeman & #ShayeMoss of tampering w/ballots in the 2020 election, a lie he has incessantly repeated & that led to his bankruptcy

The permanent #injunction ends Giuliani’s yrs of attacks on Freeman & Moss.
It also gives the women #power to hold him accountable if he ever again suggests they took votes from #Trump /gave votes to #Biden

“#Cheeley, an #Atlanta-area pro-#Trump atty, is facing 10 charges in #FultonCounty.

“Prosecutors allege he played a wide-ranging role in seeking to subvert #Georgia's election to keep Trump in power, including making false statements at a state legislative hearing, where he claimed #ElectionWorkers were double- & triple-counting ballots.

A defense by 2 of #Trump’s remaining 14 #codefendants in a case alleging a vast #conspiracy to steal the #2020election through a pressure campaign that included cajoling state ofcls, harassing local #ElectionWorkers & urging Trump #FakeElectors to cast ballots in 7 states” asserts the “election really was stolen.

The lawsuit filed by #RubyFreeman & #ShayeMoss in Dec 2021 was among the first to be brought by individual #ElectionWorkers who found themselves dragged into the alternate universe of #RightWing #politicians & #media figures who claimed that #Trump had won the election. The two women had originally sued other defendants, including the One America News Network (#OANN) & some of its top ofcls, but ultimately #settled the case against everyone except #Giuliani.
