The Republican primary is well underway in South Carolina, and there are already reports of issues with voting tabulations in at least one precinct in Richland County.
Michelle Backus, the voice of the real America, was on the ground at Satchel Ford Elementary School in Columbia, South Carolina. I spoke with Tony Burks, a voter in that particular district. He said that after he filled out his ballot and ran it through the scanner, he received an error message.
Now tell me if this sounds familiar: One poll worker told a voter that they “don't have internet” and that they would have to “fold it up and put it in another slot. It looked like trash.”
Richland County, South Carolina uses ES&S DS200 scanners, as well as the ES&S ExpressPoll and ExpressVote systems.
We've been told for some time that scheduling machines don't connect to the Internet. Election officials claimed that poll books should be linked to the Internet to ensure voters are registered as voting after the process. According to the man, this happened after He got the ballot and while he was scanning it into the tabulator.
He said there were many other voters he saw at the time who were confused by the issue.
Suspicious early voting activity was reported in SC today

This “other hole” is eerily reminiscent of the issues that were widespread throughout Maricopa County during the 2022 midterm elections, as reported by The Gateway Pundit, and which ended up causing long lines and long delays in voting, as well as Inability to vote. Voters to ensure their votes are tabulated correctly.
