Unidentified commenter urges York County to examine alleged voting-machine algorithms and consider manual counts
Summary
An un-named public commenter told the York County board he has documented alleged algorithms in voting machines across several states and urged counties to consider manual counts or refuse certification if integrity concerns persist; he said he had sent materials to the state attorney general and secretary of state.
During the public forum at the Oct. 29 York County Board of Commissioners meeting, an un-named commenter, who said he is a U.S. Air Force veteran, described research he said shows algorithms embedded in voting machines in multiple states. He said he had sent documentation to the state attorney general and the secretary of state and described litigation in other states where county boards refused to certify election results pending manual counts.
The commenter urged county officials to consider manual counts if there are concerns about machine accuracy and said boards can delay certification and demand hand counts. He referenced prior federal litigation and said citizens and county boards have used administrative remedies and courts in the past to press for manual reviews.
Board members did not respond with a technical analysis or a legal determination during the public comment; the transcript shows no staff presentation or county finding on machine integrity at the meeting. The comments were made during the public-comment portion of the meeting and were recorded as citizen views rather than board action.
