How Many California Counties Use ‘Glitchy’ Dominion Voting System?

Do the 40 California counties which use Dominion software need to be audited?

Across the country, recounts and legal challenges to vote results from November 3, 2020 Presidential Election are taking place in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Nevada and Arizona.

At issue in several states is the “glitchy” computer program in Michigan which turned 6,000 Trump votes into Biden votes in just one county, and was discovered in use in 47 Michigan counties.

That same computer system used in Michigan is also used in Georgia, in which the Secretary of State finally agreed to a hand recount after voting anomalies were discovered in the voting system.

Twitter has removed this Tweet by Kyle Becker, showing that Dominion Voting System is used in 30 states including the 7 states currently being challenged by the Trump campaign legal team:

The election software system in Michigan that switched 6,000 votes from Trump to Biden is called “Dominion.”

It is used in 30 states including:

☑️Nevada
☑️Arizona
☑️Minnesota
☑️Michigan
☑️Wisconsin
☑️Georgia
☑️Pennsylvania

(American Thinker has the Tweet and several others from Becker)

Politico reported that a Georgia election official said the glitch that stopped voting in two counties was caused by a vendor uploading an update into their Dominion Voting system.

“Marcia Ridley of the Spalding County Board of Elections, had initially attributed the problem to a vendor’s 11th-hour update to the equipment. But log files for the devices — electronic poll books that poll workers use to sign in voters at precincts — show that no such update occurred to the devices the night before Election Day, Ridley said in a statement to POLITICO. However, she said she stands by her previous statements last week that a representative for the election technology vendor, Dominion Voting Systems, told her office that it had uploaded some kind of update the night before the election and that this had created the glitch.”

Computers don’t “glitch.” People program computers to glitch.

Ridley said she’s never seen them update anything the day before the election.

The American people need to know just how much cheating took place in the 2020 Presidential Election, regardless of the legitimate outcome, which is almost secondary at this point.

The left wants to keep this under wraps.

Even in California, which most of the rest of the country completely discounts as a leftist bastion and lost cause, cheating takes place and impacts national and congressional races, as California showed in the 2018 ballot harvesting slaughter, overturning 7 Republican congressional seats. California has been manipulating elections since before 2010, but has done so more brazenly in recent years.

In 2016, thousands of Republican and Democratic voters reported in the June 7, 2016 California Primary election they showed up at the polls across the state to discover their political party registrations had been changed, or dropped altogether… but only after they had received official sample ballots verifying their party registration in the mail. This only could have been done within the Secretary of State’s VoteCal system.

The Election Integrity Project found that most reported being re-registered “No Party Preference,” California’s version of “Decline to State.” Others said their registrations were dropped, or they received the wrong ballot, which in many cases prevented them from voting for President in the primary.

Back in 2018, Sacramento County excitedly announced it was moving to sending all registered voters a ballot in the mail, and would be using Dominion Voting Systems to process these newfangled ballots.

In 2019, San Francisco County announced it was switching to a new voting system in November “aimed at improving efficiency, security and transparency.”

KTVU San Francisco reported: “The new voting system is called ‘Democracy Suite’ and is made by Dominion Voting, a company that supplies voting systems throughout the nation. Voters will still receive a paper ballot and insert it into the new voting machines.”

Calling it “Voting modernization,” Fresno County also approved the all-mail-in-ballot voting process, and Dominion Voting Systems.

According to the California Secretary of State, the California Counties that use Dominion are:

Alameda, Butte, Contra Costa, Colusa, Del Norte, El Dorado, Fresno, Glenn, Imperial, Inyo, Kern, Kings, Madera, Mariposa, Marin, Mono, Monterey, Napa, Placer, Plumas, Riverside, Sacramento, San Benito, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Luis Obispo, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Shasta, Siskiyou, Sonoma, Sutter, Tehama, Tulare, Tuolumne, Ventura, and Yuba.

Here is what Sacramento County had to say in their announcement:

Beginning with the June 2018 Primary Election, Sacramento County will be one of five counties in California to implement the Voter’s Choice Act (VCA).  Voters will notice many positive changes this year, including new voting technology.

After a comprehensive selection process, the Sacramento County Department of Voter Registration and Elections (VRE) has chosen Dominion Voting Systems as a voting system vendor. Dominion Voting System will support Sacramento County’s paper balloting method and bring new, easy-to-use, accessible voting devices.

“This is one of the most exciting aspects of our new voting system,” said Sacramento County Registrar of Voters, Jill LaVine. “As the first election under the new Vote Center Model, these new touchscreen devices will help enhance and modernize the voting process and improve voter experience for voters with disabilities.”

San Francisco’s Director of Elections John Arntz touted Dominion Voting System’s hack-free security aspects:

“There’s no way to actually hack into the system from the internet, because it will never hook up to the internet. It’s impossible. And also there’s nothing in the equipment that would receive a wireless signal, so you couldn’t hack in using Wi-Fi or Bluetooth or something like that,” said Arntz.

How many of the congressional races in these 40 counties ended up with the unbelievably wide margins between Democrat incumbents and their Republican challengers, which California Globe reported on?

The 6th Congressional District in Sacramento, in which Rep. Doris Matsui (D-CA) never even campaigned, is one. Matsui beat her challenger Chris Bish:

  • Doris Matsui (D) 107,316    75.9%
  • Chris Bish (R)       34,150    24.1%

Rep. Ami Bera’s 7th Congressional District is another, and Bera had no campaign to speak of against challenger Buzz Patterson. Bera beat Patterson:

  • Ami Bera (D)            116,437  61%

Does California need an audit of these 40 counties which use Dominion Voting System?

In Texas, Dominion Voting Systems was turned down THREE TIMES for certification in state elections. It listed numerous reasons why the system had major security issues.

Dominion is now linked to voting irregularities in both MI & GA.

Update:

“We’re getting ready to overturn election results in multiple states,” Trump attorney Sydney Powell said on Fox Business, adding that she has enough evidence of election fraud to launch a widespread criminal investigation.  “I don’t make comments without having the evidence to back it up,” Epoch Times reported.

Powell said a whistleblower has come forward alleging that the voting software was designed to “rig elections.”

“He saw it happen in other countries,” she said, apparently referring to election hardware and software by Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic, or perhaps other software and machines.

“We have so much evidence, I feel like it’s coming in through a fire hose.” She declined to elaborate when prompted by Fox News host Maria Bartiromo.

“They can stick a thumb drive in the [voting] machine, they can upload software to it even from the Internet … from Germany or Venezuela even,” Powell said, adding that operations “can watch votes in real-time” and “can shift votes in real-time,” or alleged bad actors can “remote access anything.”

“We’ve identified mathematically the exact algorithm they’ve used—and planned to use from the beginning” that allegedly switched votes to Biden, Powell said.

  • Does California 2020 voting results need to be audited because of Dominion Voting System’s? YES!!!
    Why is California such a BLUE state? Why did Orange County California flip BLUE in 2018.... WEEKS after the election Republicans appeared to have won on Election Day? Does the COUNTING seem to follow a predetermined path???? How about early in the morning deliveries of LAST MINUTE FOUND VOTES, by unmarked vans? Gee that just happened in 2020, AGAIN! AUDIT, YOU BET, BUT WATCH THE COUNTERS!

  • Republicans need to stop writing off California. There are more conservatives here than the fake vote shows. Stop believing the lies and fight!

    • Agree with you CW. Nothing on earth can make me believe what you say is not true. And it would have been glaringly evident to all if we hadn't been cheated in this 2020 election, which would have shown a huge conservative presence, much better than the token stuff pundits have been pointing out in the state proposition battles (not knocking some of the wins but I think they would have been MUCH bigger without the cheating) and certain back-and-forth congressional seat squeakers which otherwise would have likely been blowouts for some of these Repub candidates. E.g. Mike Garcia still fighting in District 25 against CHRISTY SMITH? Are you kidding me?

  • We don't need to expand GITMO Treason requires a death sentence....Pompeo tried to warn them but they persisted...I know this sound crazy but watch!! China is DONE....

  • Excellent points, all of them, to show that California DEFINITELY NEEDS an audit of our voting systems. This is ridiculous. We can't vote the bums out now. They've seen to that. It will only get worse unless we get back to basics. It should have been a clue that in many counties expensive electronic machines were brought it FOR NO GOOD REASON for the 2018 election and systems were overhauled that made voting and ballot-counting LESS secure. "But it doesn't hook up to the internet so it can't be hacked!" they always say, purposely diverting our attention from what they were really up to. Then even before "all-mail" was forced down our throats they centralized voting so we had far fewer polling places, which produced so much chaos and had so many negatives, it would make a very long list. I think the main purpose of the resulting mess that came from that (from their perspective) was to get people to BEG for all-mail next election.

    • Gives whole new meaning to Voter Suppression, but the Dems have Always accused the ppl on the right side of the isle of Everything they have done & continue to do to us. We are on to you DNC-ChiDemMarxocrats !!!!

  • Yes it should be Audited and this is the reason why the Democrats keep winning every election cycle and the dominion software company keep switching votes and no wonder the republicans don’t have a chance. And with seizure of the server from the company in Germany will have all the evidence of the liberals trying to steal the election mark my word it will happen

    • Election security expert @RussRamsland has performed many investigations on US election voting computers.

      Voting is done by private companies under contract with the county. We found that there are NO SECURITY STANDARDS on the software. There are no national standards that any voting company needs to meet as far as the security on their software.

      It’s easy to change votes. The software is so bad that it can be changed so THAT YOU CAN’T PERFORM AN AUDIT TRAIL. That means you can’t find out if or how your vote was changed.

      We could see malware that contained the credentials of the county workers so a hacker could go in and change the vote.

  • "because it will never hook up to the internet" It would appear that being hooked to the internet is not the problem. It is the black box inside that is programmed by people/company who are highly bias. Only they know what the black box is programmed to do.

    • Just because they "say" they're not hooked up to the internet doesn't mean much coming from a liberal or a democrat.

      • Exactly- how did a Dominion AI Rep gain access to the polling center to upgrade (?) install(?) the software? In every tabulating machine? Which was necessitated since they were not on the internet (allegedly)?

  • Showantell ... it's never to late... if it can be proven the votes were rigged they should be disqualified and removed from the position they were "voted" into. Maybe the whole election done over !!!!!

    • Problem you have is a ton of ballots voted D-Biden for Presidency & then voted republican for senate & house down the entire bottom of ballot. So your saying they turned Trump a Rep to Biden D but then changed every others race on the ballot from Rep to Democrat? How does that even make sense? It blows you're argument out of the water. I have bad news for Reps! Every ballot for Biden that's disqualified, is a republican Senate & Rep House vote that's disqualified. Wonder if Mc Connell, Graham, Rubio, & Mc Carthy realize that yet! We'll have Trump for POTUS with entire Democrat Senate & House! This conspiracy theories ridiculous!

  • How can I see my recorded vote information? Everyone should be able to access their own recorded vote information from the SOS. Not just my demographics.

  • "Glitchy". That's one way of describing the software. Another would be "performing as designed" since Venezuela developed it for dear leader Chavez to ensure his victories. Yet another would be "corrupt" since it was designed to corrupt elections throughout the World on behalf of Marxists who really hate fair elections.
