@ProPublica In Czech Republic voters came with electronic IDs which were officially considered a valid ID for voting, and were IMO arbitrarily, wantonly and frivolously not allowed to vote, citing "overloaded system".

I can imagine a programming of the system like this:

if (voter.political_preference==opposition) {fprintf(stderr,"Error: sorry, system overloaded!\n"); exit -1; }

Do you know what's the difference between Cambodian 3rd world developing country dictatorship and Czech Republic?

In Cambodia I got a dentist in 1 day, in Czechia I had to phone dentists for 2 months before I got one. In case of dermatologist even 4 months.

I feel

---

Kevin Moncla has tried repeatedly to prove that the 2020 vote in Fulton County, Georgia, was tainted by fraud. While state election overseers have rejected his claims, his work may be fueling the federal government’s ongoing investigations.

ProPublica and The Texas Tribune found that DHS rushed a revamped tool to check voters’ citizenship into use while it was still adding data.

As a result, the tool has made persistent mistakes, particularly for citizens born outside the U.S.

“Not Ready for Prime Time.” A Federal Tool to Check Voter Citizenship Keeps Making Mistakes.

The Department of Homeland Security pushed out the revamped tool while it was still adding data. That led to widespread misidentification, particularly for citizens born outside the U.S.
