They’ve been slacking off for a while.
One of the closest times we came to nuclear annihilation is when a Soviet nuclear detection system malfunctioned and said the US launched a nuke. The human operator determined the system was most likely at fault and they decided not to do anything.
Neither are infallible but if a computer gets bad data it doesn’t know it’s bad data.
They have ways to verify the ballot. I’m only talking about how they’d find the person who did it if they didn’t actually double vote. If the ballot was verified then they’d have to take a closer look at the ballots, especially the signature. If they’re still verified, well, enjoy the charges.
They have to know who they sent mail-in ballots to. Would be pretty simply to figure out that their mail-in ballots were used. Then when asked they’d just say “wtf you talking about? I didn’t get a ballot in the mail.” Then they’d track down where the ballot got sent. To the landlord at their previous address.
