To detect/deter electronic vote tampering between the precincts & the central tabulators, CAMPAIGNS should place observers at each precinct (after polls close) 2 photograph the poll tapes (paper summary of vote totals) from each machine. @HarleyRouda @BetoORourke @staceyabrams 1/

I don't believe most campaigns are already doing this. I contacted the Ohio Dem party to discuss poll observers b4 the #OH12 election. They referred me to O'Connor's campaign manager who DIDN'T KNOW & transferred me to the Election Protection Hotline, which also didn't know. 2/

If campaigns don't have capacity to put poll observers at each precinct, they shld coordinate w/ @ACLU about this. I have noticed that the @ACLU is training poll observers in some states. I don't know if they know the importance of photographing poll tapes after polls close. 3/

This is what the poll tapes (vote total summaries from touchscreen machines at the precincts) look like. As indicated by @MarilynRMarks1, pictures of the poll tapes in Georgia have revealed major issues, like MISSING RACES. 4/

@MarilynRMarks1 has alerted election integrity activists & others in Georgia about the importance of photographing poll tapes. Because we cannot clone Marilyn for other states, we must learn from her work there and implement similar strategies elsewhere OURSELVES. 5/

Many states don't allow photographs DURING VOTING. Most don't prohibit taking pictures of the poll tapes (vote total summaries) AFTER polls close. But unless poll tapes are posted publicly (in many places they aren't), u will need 2 be trained as a poll observer to get access. 6/
