New Evidence Suggests That "The Most Secure Election in Earth History" Wasn't So Much

You mean that incompetents and hyperpartisans in position of authority over their superiors have been lying to us?

I'm gonna need a minute on this one. My programming needs a big update.

New evidence further undermines claim that 2020 election was 'most secure' in history

Declassified documents, other evidence, reveal that despite official assurances of a secure 2020 election, government agencies possessed intelligence regarding significant security vulnerabilities, foreign data breaches, and potential manipulation risks.

After several batches of documents were recently declassified and released by the White House, the American people now have more evidence than ever that while officials claimed 2020 was a historically secure election, the government had plenty of evidence of security vulnerabilities, hacks and foreign interference.

Shortly after the election, senior government officials insisted that it was the "most secure" in American history, deflecting concerns about security, including about voting systems and mail-in-ballots.

However, after the new batches of documents were declassified and released this summer by the White House, Americans have more evidence than ever that those same officials knew about significant breaches of election data and internally raised concerns about how foreign actors could influence the election and the vulnerability of electronic voting machines.

Maricopa exfiltration of voter registration data

The latest evidence released by the White House this week shows that the FBI investigated a breach of voter registration data in Arizona's largest county in the days before the 2020 election. In that incident, a self-described hacker foiled security and obtained 633,000 voter registration files, but the Biden Justice Department and local prosecutors declined to bring charges even after the FBI got the suspect to confess, Just the News reported on Thursday.

The scraping of Maricopa County's voter registration files was the most flagged security incident in a cyberintrusion log kept by U.S. spy agencies in the days surrounding the Nov. 3, 2020, election, showing that intelligence officials were monitoring the breach while voting was ongoing.

The article discusses China's hacking of the US voter databases. See the article for more on that.

This is the most alarming possibility: We know that Venezuela rigged its own elections to fake a "win" for Maduro.

And Maduro is a nasty communist enemy of the US.

Did he do the same thing to the US elections, to get a demented old socialist fool "elected"?

The declassified documents released by the White House also show that from 2004 to 2020, U.S. intelligence agencies monitored plans by the Venezuelan leadership to electronically manipulate their country's own voting machines, including the use of substituting false votes, to secure victory for the ruling socialists.

The plans raised alarm as early as 2006 among U.S. officials as a potential avenue for the Venezuelans to attempt to "undermine confidence in, or manipulate the electoral process in, the United States," according to a June 2026 CIA summary of prior intelligence reporting on Caracas' capabilities.

By 2020, the CIA had obtained reporting on Venezuelan plans to swing the country's election that year by manipulating electronic voting machines in a way that would make false votes appear legitimate and leave no trace of the changes. The intelligence raised questions about whether some U.S. voting machines could be vulnerable to similar types of manipulation, though agencies assessed that Venezuela did not have the capability to do so in the U.S.

What would we do without "agencies" to tell us that foreign threats aren't threats at all, but opportunities for us to be welcoming and open-minded.

And, of course:

Non-citizens on voter rolls

Additionally, an assessment by the Homeland Security Department found that hundreds-of-thousands of illegal aliens were on the voter rolls in four states -- and estimated the total across the whole country to be higher. A review conducted earlier this year using publicly available voter data in California, Nevada, New Jersey and Pennsylvania found over 250,000 illegal voters on the rolls, Just the News reported.

Tangentially related: While Democrats whine about Trump firing disloyal subversive operatives, Hillary Clinton urges the next Democrat president, who will not be her, to fire every single Republican, no matter how minor or how far from any actual power.

She literally complains about Trump's plans to do this, while urging Democrats to do the same thing.

Talk about projection.

But think about what Clinton is saying there -- she's talking about the tactic of suborning a president's agenda by holding the civil service, in the context of accusing President Donald Trump of possibly doing it. She does not appear to be just talking about the political positions, saying a Democrat president needs to get rid of Trump people: "Get rid of all the holdovers. Do not let anybody hang around in some small office somewhere who can literally subvert your program and you don't even know the person is there." She even talks about how you can move people from political positions into the civil service to help keep them in government positions, predicting that Trump "will try to move" people to do this.

The civil service positions aren't supposed to be political appointments. "People are going to have to be really searching," she said, " To make sure they're not going to be literally subverted from within the government."

What was that people were saying about a "deep state" and every accusation being a confession? Is this an admission about the past?

So Clinton would do a "purge" of anyone for the sin of being supportive of Trump or Trump positions. Purging opposing views sounds like a typical move from the folks who keep claiming to be the "defenders of democracy."
