Elections are “rigged.”
The state of Texas goes above and beyond to secure your vote. Some of the “security” features in place to guarantee your elections are accurate:
• All equipment is subject to public testing, including HASH validation.
• A partial hand count is required after the election to verify the tabulations of the ballots.
• There is a paper ballot trail for verification on every vote cast.
• A reconciliation between the number of voters and the number of ballots is required and published after every election.
• Chain of custody of every ballot including how many ballots were ordered and where they were distributed is required.
• None of the election equipment is hooked to the internet, a chain of custody is in place with security seals for tracking and validation purposes.
Two-person verification of all election practices with required signatures.
• Audits both on a state level and on a county level.
