Ballot Printing (GreatAwakening)

submitted ago by Blacksmith21

I've discovered 2 interesting things relating to the ballots:

There is a patent for a technology called "gamma printing" which uses gamma radiation emitting particles to watermark documents, and is otherwise undetectable without specialized equipment. This lends validity to the theory of using "isotopes" to mark ballots: https://www.osti.gov/doepatents/biblio/1174865

In the process of researching this, I came across something very interesting:

One of the largest printers of ballots, and provider of election-related services is Runbeck Election Services in AZ: https://runbeck.net/about/our-company/

A little background: https://www.npr.org/2020/05/03/848347895/ballot-printers-increase-capacity-to-prepare-for-mail-voting-surge

So I dug a little. Brian Runbeck, an immediate relation to the CEO of RES, as well as immediate family, are also political donors to ActBlue and Biden For President: https://www.fec.gov/data/receipts/individual-contributions/?contributor_name=runbeck&two_year_transaction_period=2020&min_date=01%2F01%2F2019&max_date=12%2F31%2F2020

Does anyone see a problem with an immediate relation to the the ownership of what is one, if not the largest distributor of ballots in the US, donating to the Democrats?

If anyone has some free time today, more digging is warranted. I've got meetings and will do my best to fill this out more.

What if they sent out fake ballots first, and used the real ones to switch votes?

Kind of defeats the safe-guard.

Only if they knew the real ones were marked.

Any ballot without the watermark would be considered fake. Shouldn't be hard to find. There shouldn't be ANY fake ballots in the chain of custody. What I don't know is what regulations are there for retaining paper ballots? I'm sure it varies from state-to-state.

In my polling place paper ballots were used. The voter marks them with a pen then takes them to a scanner that scans but does not return the ballot. I don't know if they are kept or shredded once scanned.

In my state the paper ballots must be retained for a time (in the same scan order) to verify the tape count of the scanner and for subsequent inquiries regarding signatures and ballot/voter validity.

(I took pollworkers training class.)
