Taped shut with clear packing tape it had the Secretary of State’s seal on the top but having been at a poll manager for a long time there were no signatures on that seal which there should be once a box or a manila envelope is sealed it should have the sealer’s signature and
An additional signature it should not be anything that’s ever done by anyone alone that seemed rather strange to me that the the seal was there but there were no signatures on this seal indicating who had closed the box and who had what was the chain of custody on
This box who had handled this box prior to my handling it um so when we open the box and put the sale aside we noticed that there were down to 800 absentee ballots inside they were segregated into batches of ballots and um they had most of them had a hundred one
Had 110 in the batch most of the batches showed a great deal of wear we came to one batch however that just it it really was not only surprising but it was so Stark um having done this for years I’m very familiar with how the ballots were how
They fold how they feel their General appearance these ballots appeared as though the first one had been bubbled in by a person but all of them were replicated exactly the same we were further alarmed that in our account 98 of these ballots were for Joseph R Biden
Two were for Donald J Trump and one was for Joe Jorgensen that’s a very odd count am I my co-worker agreed with me that there was something very unusual about these ballots and so what we did was we started looking through that entire stack of of 98 for one candidate that seemed
That’s getting very odd to me every single ballot was absolutely identical and they appeared to be printed rather than um with some sort of marking device and the fact that you know there was a little eclipse um in an oval that was buoyed in exactly
The same spot in all these by all these ballots we didn’t see any differentiation even when it came to the Senate candidates um or when it came to some of the referendums on the back everything was precisely the same um I’ve never seen that before in 20 years
With science that it just really Disturbed me that these ballots did not appear to have been ever used as an absentee ballot when you request an absentee ballot that ballot comes to you in the mail you don’t receive that ballot as a long um long sheet of white paper with
Candidates on each side that ballot has already been through the franking process the stamping crosses at a post office and so it has already been folded once and regardless of your delivery method whether you choose the U.S post office or whether you chose one of those boxes that were outside of libraries or
Other polling places you had to fold that and there would have been more severe or deeper creases in these these ballots and then they weren’t there but there was use to the other ballots there was differentiation in the bubbling end of the candidates in those ballots on and this particular batch of this
Nearly 800 ballots it was a stark contrast to the other other ballots that were in there there was a difference in how they were bubbled and the fact that 98 of them were bubbled for Joseph R Biden that was alarming to us this is a a job that deals with the Integrity of
Each person’s vote and I I felt like this was compromised with a box that was so hastily put together that was taped and the secretary seal was slapped on there but nobody had signed it and it wasn’t even completely slapped on I can see where somebody might have opened this box
We were just two Auditors at one table this was just the first box that we were given and it was rather alarming to me that if this happened in our one box how many other boxes was this happening to how many other ballot boxes was this occurring where else was this happening
Um I don’t think our box was unique and this could change things on a massive scale that is just my opinion I don’t know that as a fact but I do know what I saw and how hastily this box was put together how alike all the used ballots work and how pristine and
Unalike and uniform this was in its candidate choice and how every little bubble was precisely alike
