Windham New Hampshire Ballot Audit Finds Folded Ballots Generated False Results

The people on the ground in Windham, New Hampshire, are doing an excellent job holding the election officials and auditors accountable to the people during this forensic ballot audit. The audit started because the tabulating machines (Dominion hardware and software) did not accurately count the votes from the physical ballots.

During the first small audit (recount) it was discovered that Republican votes were undercounted and Democrat candidates were overcounted. This anomaly was discovered during a hand recount of the ballots as compared to the electronic tabulation results. After the first set of tabulation results were discovered to be inaccurate the state authorized a full forensic audit.  The full audit is ongoing, here’s the update:

Yesterday it was reported the second hand recount matched the first, which means the machine tabulation of those ballots was wrong.  The auditors wondered if folded ballots generated the problem.  The test of folded -vs- unfolded ballots (counted by same machine) showed a high number of errors.  That would mean the tabulation machines across all of New Hampshire may have this problem.
