2 (Atlanta, Fulton County, Georgia; January 22, 2024.)
3 THE COURT: Good morning. Have a seat.
4 So where are we?
5 MR. BROWN: Good morning, Your Honor. We will start,
6 if Bryan doesn't have any preliminaries, with our -- our two
7 last witnesses. Thanks.
8 MR. TYSON: And, Your Honor, I just had one
9 administrative matter. I received an email from Dr. Jan
10 Johnston last night. I have mentioned this to the plaintiffs.
11 She was -- she believes she made an error in her
12 testimony about a document that she was shown by Mr. Oles. She
13 said she testified she had not -- did not recall seeing it.
14 She remembered later she did see it.
15 She wanted me to raise that to you just so you are
16 aware. If she needs to come back down and testify to that,
17 she's happy to do so. But I wanted to make sure that that was
18 properly reflected on the record.
19 THE COURT: All right. Well, I'll let plaintiffs'
20 counsel, and Mr. Oles in particular who called her, to cogitate
21 about that and you can let me know after the next witness.
22 MR. OLES: Thank you.
23 THE COURT: Or if you make a determination when we
24 take a break, why don't you let me know?
25 MR. OLES: All right. Thank you, Judge.

17 DIRECT EXAMINATION
18 BY MR. BROWN:
19 Q. Good morning, Mr. Skoglund.
20 A. Good morning.
21 Q. Have you been engaged by the Coalition plaintiffs to --
22 A. Yes.
23 Q. -- give expert testimony in this case?
24 A. Yes, I have.
25 Q. We will explore this in greater detail below.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT

1 But at a high level, how would you describe your
2 professional experience?
3 A. I am -- sorry. I do a lot of different things. I wear a
4 lot of different hats.
5 But relevant to this Court, I am an expert on election
6 security and on voting machine technology, how it is used and
7 deployed, and on cybersecurity.
8 Q. Do you have a college degree?
9 A. I do. I received a Bachelor in Arts with honors from
10 Harvard University in 1994.
11 Q. We don't need all the details of your career, but can you
12 give the Court just an overview of your current work?
13 A. Yes. Like I said, I wear a lot of hats. I have been a
14 professional programmer for 20 years. I run a development
15 company that builds technology solutions and consults on
16 cybersecurity.
17 And I develop course curriculum and teach online classes
18 on programming topics and security topics for Microsoft's
19 LinkedIn Learning library. And I work on a wide variety of
20 election security issues in a number of capacities.
21 Q. Can you give the Court some examples of the work that you
22 have done relating to election equipment and systems?
23 A. Yes, I can list some of those.
24 Q. Do you serve on any boards?
25 A. Yes. I am on the board of advisers for Verified Voting.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
8
1 That is a national nonprofit organization that works on
2 election policy. They also came up in this case because they
3 maintain the databases and maps that were shown to
4 Dr. Halderman last week showing where voting technology is
5 used.
6 Q. What other organizations do you serve on either as a
7 consultant or as an adviser?
8 A. Right. I was on the National Institute of Science and
9 Technology's Election System Cybersecurity Working Group. It
10 is a very long name. What we did was develop the requirements,
11 the cybersecurity requirements that the U.S. Election
12 Assistance Commission is using to test and certify the next
13 generation of voting machines. And ...
14 Q. Have you ever worked to assist organizations in procuring
15 election systems?
16 A. I have. I was hired as a subject matter expert in
17 cybersecurity by the City of Toronto. I helped them to write
18 the RFP for the new voting system they were hoping to procure
19 and then scored the responses of the proposals that came back
20 from the vendors.
21 Q. All right.
22 Mr. Skoglund, were you here for Dr. Halderman's testimony
23 on Thursday and Friday?
24 A. Yes, I was.
25 Q. And do you recall his testimony relating to CISA's review
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
9
1 of his report?
2 A. Yes, I do.
3 Q. And was that described -- I think it was a coordinated
4 review disclosure. Do I have it right?
5 A. Yes. Coordinated vulnerability disclosure.
6 Q. And have you personally ever participated in a disclosure
7 like that relating to cybersecurity and elections?
8 A. I have. On two occasions. The first was related to
9 discovering voting systems that were visible to the whole
10 internet and were insecure.
11 And the second came out of my extensive research into
12 barcodes and how they are used in elections. I had determined
13 that one of the barcode scanners that is sometimes used with
14 some voting systems had some vulnerabilities.
15 Q. And did you discover these vulnerabilities on your own?
16 A. Yes. Well, in the case of the voting systems left online,
17 I had a collaborator.
18 Q. And were those disclosures about voting systems, the one
19 about left on the internet, was that to CISA?
20 A. The voting machines on the internet was not CISA. We did
21 that work in 2018 in the summer. And at the time CISA didn't
22 exist. CISA was founded later that year.
23 So instead, we decided that the best place to report it
24 was to an organization that is known by its abbreviation
25 EI-ISAC, I-S-A-C, and that stands for Election Infrastructure
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
10
1 Information Sharing and Analysis Center.
2 Q. Thank you.
3 What about the disclosure about the barcodes? Was that to
4 CISA?
5 A. That one I did make to CISA as well as to EI-ISAC as well
6 as to the Election Assistance Commission and to the vendor.
7 Q. Mr. Skoglund, have you written any articles on elections
8 and cybersecurity?
9 A. I have.
10 Q. And are those listed on your resume?
11 A. They are.
12 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, may I approach?
13 THE COURT: Yes.
14 BY MR. BROWN:
15 Q. Mr. Skoglund, I'm going to hand to you a document which we
16 will mark as Coalition Plaintiffs' Exhibit 63.
17 Is that a copy of your current resume?
18 A. Yes, it is.
19 Q. And do you list on Page 2 and 3 a sum of your writings on
20 elections and security?
21 A. Yes.
22 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, I move to admit Exhibit 63.
23 MR. RUSSO: No objection.
24 THE COURT: It is admitted.
25 Harry, this is the copy I got. I don't know whether
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
11
1 you have been given a -- do you have a copy for the record?
2 You'll work it out. Okay. Fine.
3 COURTROOM DEPUTY CLERK: I'll work it out.
4 BY MR. BROWN:
5 Q. Mr. Skoglund, we have gone over some of your experience
6 consulting with other organizations and with your disclosures.
7 Do you have any hands-on experience with elections and
8 election security?
9 A. I do. I am a judge of elections in my home county of
10 Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. That is the equivalent of a
11 poll manager position in Georgia. We call it judge of
12 elections. It is an elected position in Pennsylvania. I have
13 been doing that for six years. And because it is elected, I
14 have another two years on my term.
15 Q. What do you do in that capacity?
16 A. I oversee all of the operations of my polling place,
17 ensure that everything is set up and ready to go, and to, you
18 know, help the elections run smoothly throughout the day and
19 then close up at the end of the night.
20 Q. What is the voting equipment configuration in your polling
21 location?
22 A. We use essentially exactly what the state of Georgia uses.
23 The software is Dominion Democracy Suite 5.5-A. And we use the
24 same hardware. My polling place has an ImageCast precinct
25 scanner. It has an ImageCast X ballot-marking device. We even
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
12
1 use the same KNOWiNK Poll Pads when people check in. So it
2 really is the same system.
3 Q. Are there any differences to Georgia's election
4 configuration?
5 A. There are. The biggest difference is that when voters
6 come into the polling place they check in and then they are
7 offered a hand-marked paper ballot or if they want a
8 ballot-marking device. But we don't by default put all voters
9 on a ballot-marking device.
10 Q. The default is hand-marked paper ballot?
11 A. That's correct.
12 Q. And do you have -- do you ask people questions if they say
13 they want to use the BMD?
14 A. No. Of course not. Voters can ask for it, if they like.
15 And also, you know, the pollbooks that we have indicate whether
16 voters have previously declared that they would like
17 assistance. And sometimes we'll, you know, affirmatively offer
18 it to them in those cases.
19 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I'm going to object. This is
20 outside the scope of Dr. -- or Mr. Skoglund's expert testimony.
21 He was -- he testified earlier that he has been retained as an
22 election security expert and an expert in voting machine
23 technology. Not an expert in election administration.
24 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, he is testifying on the basis
25 of his personal knowledge just then.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
13
1 THE COURT: I understand that. I'm going to allow it
2 to the extent it is helpful to the Court. But it is not as an
3 expert witness.
4 BY MR. BROWN:
5 Q. Mr. Skoglund, getting back to the BMDs that you use, is
6 there anything special about a BMD that is used for
7 accessibility?
8 A. Yes, there is. The ballot-marking device can be
9 configured with a -- an accessibility kit. Dominion calls it
10 an ATI kit, and that can be added to a ballot-marking device.
11 So on its own, a ballot-marking device looks like what was
12 shown in court last week that Alex Halderman made demonstration
13 --
14 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I'm going to object. He is
15 not an expert in disabilities and using --
16 THE COURT: I don't think he's -- come on. We will
17 never move if -- forward if we have every single thing as an
18 objection. At the end of it, if you want to move to strike
19 something, that is fine. If it is really vital for you to
20 raise because we've gone off track, that is fine.
21 But the Court is able to parse what he is saying, and
22 he is just describing what the machine is. He is not
23 necessarily testifying as an expert at the moment to the
24 disability. He is describing what they have.
25 So it is relevant to simply letting me understand
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
14
1 what he -- understand the platform from which he is functioning
2 and reviewing. All right.
3 MR. RUSSO: That's fine, Your Honor. I just want to
4 make sure my objection is on the record --
5 THE COURT: Your objection is noted. I'm just
6 saying --
7 MR. RUSSO: -- since this is Pennsylvania he is
8 talking about.
9 THE COURT: I get it. I mean, it is obvious is all
10 I'm saying. Thank you.
11 And I don't mean to jump on you. I'm just trying
12 to -- because, Mr. Russo, you are always very gentlemanly. I
13 just am simply saying we've had a lot of -- you know, more
14 objections here than one would think would be usually necessary
15 in a -- in a bench trial right from the start. And I just want
16 to move forward.
17 Thank you.
18 And you are welcome, if we get to something, to jump
19 up and just say objection noted, in the same way. But I just
20 think that we will move forward if we can just be a little bit
21 more flexible.
22 Thank you.
23 BY MR. BROWN:
24 Q. Mr. Skoglund, the BMDs that you use in Pennsylvania have
25 that accessibility package?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
15
1 A. That is correct.
2 Q. And it is one per location?
3 A. That's correct. Per polling place.
4 Q. As the judge of elections, from your personal knowledge,
5 are you able to estimate what percentage of voters use the BMDs
6 in your location?
7 A. I think it would have to be less than one percent.
8 Q. Let me ask you this to compare your experience in
9 Pennsylvania to Georgia.
10 Does Pennsylvania allow early voting?
11 A. It does not.
12 Q. Do you have any experience or expertise with early voting
13 in jurisdictions that use hand-marked paper ballots as the
14 primary method of recording votes?
15 A. I do.
16 Q. And what is that?
17 A. One of the things I do is I consult with jurisdictions
18 about how they deploy and use voting technology. And the New
19 York City Council invited me to come and speak to talk about
20 how they were going to manage the new requirement that the New
21 York State had made that there would be early voting in vote
22 centers across New York State.
23 New York City is primarily hand-marked paper ballots for
24 most voters. And so they wanted to figure out how they would
25 manage a number of ballot styles in particular. And so I came
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
16
1 and gave a presentation and recommended that they use a Ballot
2 on Demand printer for the polling places that could print
3 ballots for voters as they checked in.
4 Q. What is a Ballot on Demand printer?
5 A. So a Ballot on Demand printer is a printer that has been
6 slightly customized so that when voters check in you can
7 trigger the printing of a ballot in the correct ballot style
8 for that voter.
9 Q. Do you know what New York City ended up using?
10 A. Yes. They took my recommendations, and they are using
11 Ballot on Demand printers in their vote centers. The ones that
12 they purchased was -- it is a Poll Pad -- I'm sorry, Poll Print
13 is the name of the product. It is made by KNOWiNK. And it
14 integrates with the pollbooks, which are the KNOWiNK pollbooks
15 that Georgia uses as well.
16 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, we tender Mr. Skoglund as an
17 expert in election security, cybersecurity, and election
18 technology.
19 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I don't have an objection to
20 Mr. Skoglund being tendered as an expert in cybersecurity with
21 regards to election security. That is a fairly broad topic.
22 He has not discussed any expertise if we're
23 discussing physical security around voting machines and the
24 voting process. If he is referring --
25 THE COURT: Can you pull the --
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
17
1 MR. RUSSO: -- purely to election technology
2 security, that may be different.
3 It does not sound like Mr. Brown is tendering the
4 witness as an expert in election administration. Although he
5 did testify just now about some of his experiences in other
6 jurisdictions.
7 To the extent he is being offered as an expert about
8 different types of voting systems and what may be able to be
9 used in Georgia, I would object to that.
10 But again, to the extent he is in kind of a narrow
11 lane here, that's -- we don't object.
12 MR. BROWN: I'm not sure I quite understand the
13 objection, Your Honor. We are offering Mr. Sterling [sic], as
14 I said, to testify on several topics relating -- that are
15 germane to the case, including his -- and all of these topics,
16 Your Honor, he has already submitted declarations in this case.
17 And most of them have been cited by Your Honor in opinions that
18 you have issued.
19 He is going to speak on Coffee County, logic and
20 accuracy testing, the EMS and ICC replacement, and some
21 discussion of Mr. Sterling's testimony on these topics. Those
22 are the areas of his testimony.
23 THE COURT: So I think that the main one -- I mean --
24 that would be flagged here by the comments made by Mr. Russo is
25 election administration. Election administration, I guess, is
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
18
1 separate and apart from security, and there's no such bright
2 line exactly because of like, for instance, logic and accuracy
3 testing could be deemed security or administration.
4 Perhaps what he is most concerned about is the fact
5 that the witness testified about the New York situation and
6 their use of the Ballot on Demand software with the Poll Pad
7 KNOWiNK technology and that that perhaps had nothing to do with
8 security and had more to do with election administration.
9 I don't know -- I mean, if you want to -- I mean, it
10 is -- I don't have his affidavit in front of me. I have his
11 election experience in front of me instead. So -- and I can
12 remember reading other affidavits.
13 So I don't know in particular with respect to the
14 affidavits submitted most recently or in connection with the
15 motions what in particular you're relating to. I can see more
16 in terms of the -- what he's done with the working group, the
17 election verification group, the other work that he has done,
18 why he is -- you know, you are tendering him also as to
19 administration. I realize there is not a neat separation,
20 but ...
21 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, we are not tendering him as
22 an election administration expert.
23 THE COURT: Okay.
24 MR. BROWN: However, the reason for going into his
25 background in Northampton, as you noticed, is election
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
19
1 security. Cybersecurity bleeds into -- necessarily bleeds into
2 how elections are actually conducted in real life. And that is
3 why the preliminary examination of Mr. Skoglund based upon what
4 he knows in Pennsylvania and how that compares to Georgia is
5 directly relevant to his experience, as well as his personal
6 knowledge on facts that's relevant to this case.
7 THE COURT: Well, with that explanation, I'll allow
8 the testimony but note the objection, and I will not consider
9 the testimony to the extent that it is sheerly about
10 administrative matters to be deemed expert testimony.
11 And I consider that in the same vein for purposes of
12 the same testimony as to New York. Though it is clearly
13 relevant and helpful for the Court to know.
14 MR. BROWN: Thank you, Your Honor.
15 THE COURT: Because there has been testimony and
16 there has been cross-examination that has elicited testimony
17 about the -- from officials in the Secretary of State's office
18 about, well, why they couldn't do particular things, which
19 included having a variety of ballot styles at local -- at
20 voting precincts and their concern about that over the course
21 of the history of this case, so ...
22 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I would simply note it is not
23 necessarily a qualification issue, but it would go to
24 admissibility of an expert opinion if he's simply applying it
25 to some other jurisdiction that is not Georgia.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
20
1 THE COURT: Right. Right. Well, just so I can get
2 clarity, the Ballot on Demand in -- that are -- I realize they
3 are done with similar KNOWiNK technology.
4 THE WITNESS: Correct.
5 THE COURT: But just so I can understand the
6 comparability, do they -- and what is the -- and that's
7 separate and apart? I mean, is it solely the programming on
8 the KNOWiNK that produces the election -- the different
9 ballots, or is it some other technology that they are
10 interfacing with that they use to print the ballots?
11 I'm now asking you not as an -- based on your
12 expertise in New York but based on your familiarity with it as
13 a -- having consulted with them.
14 THE WITNESS: Right. I'm not an expert on election
15 administration or on New York's even. But I am very much
16 concerned with how technology gets used, right, whether it is
17 appropriate use of it. So that is the basis for talking to
18 them.
19 To your question about how the technology works, the
20 Poll Pad triggers behavior in the printer. So they work
21 together. It is not a separate device. It's the two of them
22 communicating.
23 THE COURT: Okay. Thank you.
24 BY MR. BROWN:
25 Q. Mr. Skoglund, I would like to focus on the first
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
21
1 substantive topic on some very specific questions relating to
2 Coffee County. We've had a lot of testimony on this already.
3 So I'm going to address several discrete topics.
4 First, before we discuss any of them, if you could tell
5 the Court what documents or data or other evidence you have
6 reviewed for your testimony on Coffee County.
7 A. It was a lot. I reviewed all of the data that
8 SullivanStrickler captured in Coffee County on January 7, at
9 least what they provided, and everything that Paul Maggio
10 discussed.
11 I looked at three months' worth of security video from the
12 Coffee County office from four different cameras. I looked at
13 documents and emails and text messages between -- supplied by
14 the State defense and also by witnesses who had been deposed.
15 I attended all of those depositions.
16 And then I looked at a couple of forensic copies of the
17 EMS and ICC that had been made subsequently.
18 Q. Mr. Skoglund, have you reviewed the testimony of
19 Mr. Maggio?
20 A. Yes.
21 Q. Based upon your review of the evidence, including all of
22 what you have described, was Mr. Maggio's testimony as to what
23 SullivanStrickler copied from Coffee County accurate and
24 complete?
25 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I'm going to object on -- he

1 is not a computer forensics expert. He may be a computer
2 cybersecurity expert. But Mr. Skoglund testified at his
3 deposition he is not a computer forensics expert, and he has
4 not stated today that he is a computer forensics expert. That
5 is what Mr. Brown is getting at in this line of questioning.
6 MR. BROWN: Two responses to this. First, the
7 question has nothing to do with forensics.
8 Second, it is puzzling the State would object to
9 testimony relating to disclosures of Coffee County conduct.
10 The State should be interested in exposing that, not shielding
11 it.
12 All of this evidence is in the record already. It is
13 not in dispute. And therefore, the question was proper and
14 should be allowed.
15 MR. RUSSO: We're not looking to shield --
16 THE COURT: All right. The witness barely has been
17 given an opportunity, at this point, to explain what his
18 expertise in looking at it and what he found. I can strike
19 this afterwards. You can examine it.
20 I'm not going to, at this juncture, preclude his
21 testifying in explaining what is the experience that he brought
22 to it or the knowledge. I don't know whether it is forensic or
23 not. I don't know anything about it at this point. So it is
24 premature.
25 Thank you.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT

1 BY MR. BROWN:
2 Q. Mr. Skoglund, did comparing the data that you reviewed to
3 Mr. Maggio's testimony involve any forensics?
4 A. No, not forensics in the way that I think it is typically
5 used in normal language and in court.
6 Q. And I'm not sure if the record got your answer to my
7 question before the objection. But -- so let me just ask it
8 again. Based upon your review --
9 MR. BROWN: And your objection is noted.
10 BY MR. BROWN:
11 Q. Based upon your review of the evidence, including your
12 review of the data that SullivanStrickler captured, was
13 Mr. Maggio's testimony as to what SullivanStrickler copied from
14 Coffee County accurate and complete?
15 A. The information that he testified that they had collected
16 matched the evidence that I reviewed.
17 Q. Thank you.
18 Next topic is, do you recall testimony about a virtual
19 machine being created from data captured by SullivanStrickler?
20 A. I do.
21 Q. What is a virtual machine?
22 A. A virtual machine is a virtual computer. So it is
23 essentially a large file that has an operating system in it
24 that can be booted.
25 But unlike a normal computer that you would turn on and
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
24
1 then use, instead you would go to a computer that was already
2 running and you would open that file and it would launch an
3 application, similar to launching Microsoft Word or something
4 like that, and a window would open. And inside that window
5 would be another operating system.
6 So it is like having a software computer running inside a
7 hardware-based computer. A computer within a computer.
8 Q. Have you used virtual machines before in your own work?
9 A. Yes, I have.
10 Q. In what context?
11 A. I have used them in a variety of contexts. They are
12 useful, for example, if you have a Mac operating system and you
13 want to work on a Windows operating system for some purpose, or
14 if you have a Windows machine and you want to work on Linux.
15 In those kinds of cases, you can have those other
16 operating systems running in that software-based computer and
17 run them on a different operating system. That is a very
18 common use.
19 Q. In our situation, what is a virtual machine useful for or
20 what might it have been useful for?
21 A. Well, if you -- if you have a virtual machine, it is
22 like -- especially one that is made from a forensic image that
23 has been copied from somewhere else, it is like using that
24 computer. It is like being at the keyboard of that computer
25 regardless of wherever it is. The forensic image is a snapshot
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
25
1 of the computer, and so you're using the computer sort of in
2 that state that that snapshot was captured.
3 So it is -- in the case of like an election management
4 system from a county, it is like being in that county sitting
5 in front of the keyboard for the election management system and
6 using the software that is on it.
7 Q. Is it useful for experimenting with the software and
8 looking at its vulnerabilities?
9 A. Absolutely. You would be able to see how it works. In
10 the case of election management system, you know, you could
11 program elections. You can, you know, experiment with the
12 features, see what the menu options are, see what the settings
13 are.
14 And then you can also do investigations on how to overcome
15 defenses that the machine has or ways that you might manipulate
16 the machine. It becomes sort of like a little laboratory.
17 And it is one that you can repeat -- you know, it is
18 repeatable. You can sort of reset things back to the initial
19 state and then do a new set of experiments.
20 Q. Did you find any evidence that someone had created a
21 virtual machine from the data captured by SullivanStrickler in
22 Coffee County?
23 A. Yes, I did.
24 Q. What evidence did you see?
25 A. In the ShareFile logs that SullivanStrickler presented and
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
26
1 that were discussed with Paul Maggio, you see that the Coffee
2 County data is downloaded by a number of people, including Doug
3 Logan. And then at some point in those ShareFile logs, you see
4 that new files -- new large files are uploaded back to the file
5 system -- back to the ShareFile site.
6 And when Doug Logan was deposed and asked about this, he
7 said that, yes, these were virtual machines that he had created
8 from the Coffee County images and that he was re-uploading them
9 to share with other collaborators.
10 Q. Are you familiar with a piece of software called Immunity
11 Debugger?
12 A. I am.
13 Q. What is it?
14 A. Immunity Debugger is a tool that lets you analyze software
15 to watch it while it is operating and to look for specific
16 things that you want to find.
17 It is useful for what we call reverse engineering
18 software. That is when you don't have the actual source code,
19 and so you can kind of work backwards from the working copy to
20 figure out some of the details about the source code.
21 And then it is also used for constructing malware and
22 exploits.
23 Q. Did you see any evidence that Doug Logan was or is using
24 Immunity Debugger with the virtual machine that he created from
25 the Coffee County data?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
27
1 A. I'm not sure about is but was. He produced a document
2 during the -- his subpoena or discovery -- I'm not sure what
3 the right word is for that. He produced a document that is a
4 screenshot where he shows himself using the Coffee County
5 software inside of a virtual machine.
6 And at the same time in the screenshot, you see that the
7 Immunity Debugger program is running and watching those
8 operations that he is doing.
9 And he testified in his deposition that he was using it
10 and he was trying to explore the software looking for sensitive
11 code and data specifically for the cryptographic keys that are
12 used to secure a lot of the data in the machine.
13 Q. Mr. Skoglund, I want to shift -- still in Coffee County,
14 but I want to shift --
15 THE COURT: I'm just -- Mr. Logan was -- who was he
16 affiliated with?
17 THE WITNESS: You would probably know him from Cyber
18 Ninjas most notably. But he had a number of affiliations.
19 THE COURT: I just wanted to make sure we had the
20 same person in mind. Okay.
21 BY MR. BROWN:
22 Q. Same topic of Coffee County, but a subtopic.
23 Mr. Skoglund, there has been testimony about the January 7
24 incident with SullivanStrickler.
25 Did you run across evidence of any later access to Coffee
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
28
1 County data?
2 A. Yes. Evidence of two additional breaches of the Coffee
3 County election office.
4 Q. Okay. What was the next one after SullivanStrickler?
5 A. The next one was a little more than a week later on
6 January 18 and 19, I believe. I remember the 18th was Martin
7 Luther King Day or the day I'm referencing as the 18th was
8 Martin Luther King Day, and the Coffee County office election
9 office was closed.
10 But the security video shows that Doug Logan and another
11 individual, Jeffrey Lenberg, came to Coffee County election
12 office. And Misty Hampton met them and let them inside for
13 those two days, Monday and Tuesday.
14 Q. And how long about did they have access to the election
15 office? A two-day period?
16 A. It was a two-day period. And I think it's -- it's -- the
17 security video -- and you're looking at the time that they came
18 and left -- I think it is around 13 hours altogether.
19 Q. And were you able to detect what they did while they were
20 in the elections office?
21 A. Yes. I was able to look at the activity on the -- on
22 subsequent images from the Coffee County computers. And then
23 they were also -- you know, testified about it in their
24 depositions as well.
25 They were doing experiments on the equipment. They had
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
29
1 various theories about ways that votes might have been
2 manipulated. And they wanted to do a set of experiments to
3 determine if any of those were viable theories.
4 Q. Did Mr. Doug Logan or Jeffrey Lenberg change the dates or
5 any other settings on the server or the ICC in this first visit
6 on January 18 and 19?
7 A. Yes, they did. A number of times they changed the dates,
8 and a number of times they changed the settings. And they
9 would -- the process was essentially to scan a set of ballots,
10 then change something, the date or the settings for the
11 scanner, and then rescan those ballots again and see if there
12 were any differences. And then repeat the process over and
13 over.
14 Q. Did they change the dates back after they did what they
15 were doing?
16 A. They did not. The dates and also the scanner settings.
17 In the subsequent captures of the server, after it was in the
18 State's possession, those still have the incorrect dates and
19 the incorrect scanner settings.
20 And if it had been used in an election, it would have, you
21 know, materially impacted the election.
22 Q. What do you mean materially impacted?
23 A. I mean, this -- when they were doing the scanner tests,
24 they were testing to see if they could get different results.
25 And they were sometimes getting different results. They would
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
30
1 set the contrast to a different value, for example, on the
2 scanner, or the resolution, and then run a set of tests.
3 Those were yielding different results than the scanner
4 would yield under its normal configuration. They were getting
5 odd results. I'll call them odd. They were not -- the scanner
6 was not operating as it normally would for an election.
7 Q. And they didn't -- and had that equipment not been picked
8 up, it would have -- would it have performed adequately in an
9 upcoming election?
10 A. No. I think especially -- the ICC, the ImageCast central
11 scanner that is -- typically is mostly to scan mail-in ballots,
12 I think that is the one that would be most impacted by the
13 setting changes they made.
14 Q. Mr. Skoglund, you have been describing the January 18 and
15 19, 2021, breach by those two.
16 Were there any subsequent breaches?
17 THE COURT: Before you go on to the subsequent ones,
18 let me just roll back to the 7th because there was something
19 you were describing on the 7th, and I'm just trying --
20 Who did that one? Did you have evidence of who was
21 involved in the alterations that you saw dating back to the 7th
22 or not?
23 THE WITNESS: Yes. The 7th was the date that
24 SullivanStrickler was there --
25 THE COURT: SullivanStrickler, I see.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
31
1 THE WITNESS: -- that Paul Maggio testified about.
2 THE COURT: All right.
3 THE WITNESS: So it was all of the people that he
4 described being there with him that day.
5 THE COURT: All right. That is fine.
6 Thank you. I just got a little confused in my notes.
7 BY MR. BROWN:
8 Q. Okay. So after January 18, 19, was there another visit?
9 A. Yes. The following week -- so the following Monday,
10 Jeffrey Lenberg returned to Coffee County and was there for
11 that week in varying degrees. He appears on the security video
12 on all five days.
13 Q. Were you able to determine what he was doing there?
14 A. He was continuing the work that -- from the previous week.
15 I think he felt like he wasn't done with his experiments. I
16 think he -- I believe he testified to that in his deposition,
17 that he wanted to continue working and had the ability to go
18 back. So he made arrangements and went back to do scans.
19 He primarily, out of those five days, spent the most time
20 at the beginning of the week. It was discussed in testimony
21 that Inspector Blanchard came to Coffee County and they had a
22 close encounter. After that, he appeared less frequently in
23 the Coffee County office.
24 Q. Mr. Skoglund, stepping back and in summary looking at
25 these three breaches, SullivanStrickler, and then the two by
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
32
1 Logan and Lenberg, how would you describe the impact of these
2 breaches upon the security of Georgia's elections?
3 A. All three of them?
4 Q. Together.
5 A. I mean, as far as I'm aware, this was the largest election
6 security breach in United States history. I mean, I don't know
7 how far you would have to go back to know that was certainly
8 true. But it is -- it is the biggest in recent history.
9 And I think by any measure this was a consequential breach
10 of Georgia's election security.
11 Q. How so?
12 A. I mean, SullivanStrickler went to Coffee County and
13 captured software and data from almost every single component
14 of the election system. Not just a couple but really
15 everything, including the software for the ImageCast X
16 ballot-marking device.
17 That is -- it is a lot of data that had previously not
18 been available outside of an election office.
19 And then they distributed that and distributed it to a
20 dozen people -- close to a dozen people at least. And those
21 people are -- they have a lot of different affiliations. They
22 are spread out around the country. They may have different
23 agendas.
24 And once that software is -- they call it uncontrolled
25 distribution. Once that software is in uncontrolled
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
33
1 distribution like that, you can't regulate where it goes or who
2 has it or who might obtain it in the future.
3 And you can't regain control over it. It is not possible
4 to know that you have gone and gotten every copy the way that
5 you might go and reclaim something physical from someone. Like
6 a car that you need to repossess or something, you go bring the
7 car back. You can't do that with digital data.
8 And that data is -- it helps our adversaries. It helps
9 increase the number of adversaries potentially or empower some
10 adversaries who may not have had power before.
11 A nation-state has resources to have this software
12 already. If they want it, they have the ability to do it.
13 They can spend millions and millions on it and millions and
14 millions of dollars to research and to exploit it.
15 But there is a whole range of threat actors that are in
16 the threat model that do not necessarily have those same
17 resources. And this is just a gift to them. This is just an
18 easy way for them to get access to what should be, you know,
19 well-protected data.
20 And once they have it, then they have the ability to, you
21 know, sit in their basement and, you know, work on crafting --
22 crafting exploits or ways to lower defenses or even just to
23 understand how it works or to create misinformation about it,
24 right, just to be able to say, you know, I have seen the
25 software and here is how it works.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
34
1 And the public doesn't have that ability to see it or
2 to -- and even experts don't have the ability to see that
3 software or to know how it works.
4 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I hate to interrupt. But I
5 have to object on some of this. This is just -- there are no
6 facts or data in the case that he could be relying on for some
7 of these opinions. I mean, that the information was disclosed
8 to other people is one thing.
9 But some of the statements about what nation-states
10 may be doing or not doing and people in their basements doing
11 or not doing, I just -- I don't know that this is expert
12 testimony.
13 MR. BROWN: Your Honor --
14 THE COURT: I'm just going to ask the witness a
15 question.
16 So in your description of all of the vulnerabilities
17 that it creates by being -- once the data was distributed to at
18 least 12 separate individuals across the nation by the
19 Ninjas -- and then you described the -- what that unleashes.
20 What is the -- what is the basis for your testimony
21 about that and how do you -- what is the -- in your -- you may
22 be describing this as based on your having read the New York
23 Times or you could be doing it based on your knowledge as an
24 expert.
25 And so if you could be more specific as to the basis
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
35
1 upon which you are drawing those -- making those remarks and
2 concerns that are elicited by what happened.
3 THE WITNESS: Sure.
4 These are basic cybersecurity concerns.
5 Cybersecurity and any security is about protecting things that
6 we believe are valuable. And in order to protect those things
7 and to think about what the risks to those are you first have
8 to stop and think about what kinds of things could go wrong.
9 THE COURT: This is in the field?
10 THE WITNESS: In the field. Just generally in
11 cybersecurity.
12 THE COURT: As a general principle in the field?
13 THE WITNESS: General principle.
14 You have to -- your job is to manage risks. That is
15 the North Star of cybersecurity is managing risks.
16 And to do that, you have to consider what could
17 happen. And just to take it out of elections for a moment. I
18 mean, when you think about security of your house, you think
19 about what are the things that could go wrong. Right. What
20 are the things that threaten my security in my house? It is a
21 basic fundamental principle.
22 And so in elections, we have to think about those
23 things. And part of that analysis has to be who could do us
24 harm, what are their capabilities to do harm, what are their
25 motivations to do harm, so that you can then consider what is
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
36
1 the likelihood that they could actually cause harm.
2 And that really is a fundamental sort of risk
3 assessment that is done all the time in cybersecurity. It is
4 not unique to election security.
5 So in the election context, this is the kind of thing
6 that an expert looks at is, you know, who is out there that
7 wants to affect the elections? What ability do they have to do
8 that. What is the likelihood that they could actually do it?
9 And when events like this happen that raise the
10 likelihood, that is of concern to me.
11 THE COURT: Okay. All right. Well, I think I've
12 satisfied myself as to the intellectual foundation and
13 expertise that was the basis of Mr. Skoglund's testimony in
14 this connection.
15 Go ahead.
16 MR. BROWN: Thank you, Your Honor.
17 BY MR. BROWN:
18 Q. Mr. Skoglund, I want to shift attention to another topic,
19 and that is logic and accuracy testing.
20 You have testified before about logic and accuracy
21 testing; correct?
22 A. Yes.
23 Q. I don't want your legal opinion. But we're going to put
24 something up on the board here.
25 Can you see that?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
37
1 A. I have it here on my screen.
2 Q. Mr. Skoglund, we have put on the board a passage from the
3 Court's order dated October 11, 2020. It is Document 964,
4 Page 51.
5 And the purpose of putting that on the board is to just to
6 help guide us. And it quotes -- you see where the Court has a
7 block quote of the Georgia statute relating to logic and
8 accuracy testing.
9 Now, you're familiar with the legal requirements in
10 Georgia. I don't want your legal opinion. But what I would
11 like is just your working knowledge of what Georgia law
12 requires in terms of logic and accuracy testing.
13 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I think that is calling for a
14 legal conclusion based on the question itself.
15 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, logic and accuracy testing is
16 a function that cannot be conducted unless it is within some
17 sort of regulatory environment. So -- and it should be
18 following the regulatory environment.
19 So you can't do logic and accuracy testing unless
20 there is some guiding guidepost in relation to the law. And he
21 is clearly qualified to testify about it.
22 THE COURT: All right. Just be sure that your
23 testimony is your understanding of what the requirement is.
24 BY MR. BROWN:
25 Q. Do you understand that, Mr. Skoglund? We're just looking
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
38
1 at your understanding of what the requirement is for logic and
2 accuracy testing.
3 A. I do.
4 Q. And what is it in Georgia?
5 A. So I'm reading this. And the first thing that it says is
6 each electronic ballot marker. The electronic ballot marker is
7 the ballot-marking device.
8 And it is each one needs to be tested to ascertain that it
9 will correctly record the votes cast for all offices and all
10 questions and produce a ballot reflecting such choices.
11 That I think is sort of the core part. And it is
12 basically saying every ballot-marking device needs to be tested
13 for all the offices and all of the questions to ensure that
14 they cast correct votes.
15 Q. And have you reviewed the testimony last week or the week
16 before from Michael Barnes' testimony in this case?
17 A. Yes.
18 Q. And is the way that he described the logic and accuracy
19 testing that he conducted -- does that test each BMD for all
20 offices and all questions?
21 A. No, it does not.
22 Q. Can you explain that to the Court?
23 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, this is calling for a legal
24 conclusion. If he wants to ask him about his understanding,
25 that may be one thing. But that is not what the question is
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
39
1 asking.
2 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, I very deliberately did not
3 ask him about the law in that question. I asked him if
4 Mr. Barnes' description of logic and accuracy testing tested
5 each BMD for all offices and all questions. I didn't mention
6 the law. He's not making an opinion on the law.
7 MR. RUSSO: I'm looking back at his question, and he
8 is pointing to the statute saying -- and you heard him describe
9 logic and accuracy testing that he conducted and does that test
10 each BMD for offices in all -- well, it is down now -- but in
11 all --
12 THE COURT: And all questions.
13 MR. RUSSO: Pointing to the screen.
14 THE COURT: I'm going to let him answer the question.
15 Just --
16 Go ahead.
17 BY MR. BROWN:
18 Q. And, Mr. Skoglund, can you just tell -- describe to the
19 Court how what Michael Barnes was describing does not test each
20 ballot for each office and each question?
21 A. The process that Michael Barnes described was familiar to
22 me because it was something that we had discussed back in 2020.
23 And it also --
24 THE COURT: In the course of your testimony before
25 you are saying?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
40
1 THE WITNESS: In the course of my prior testimony
2 when it was before this Court and we talked about this issue.
3 The -- it also matches the procedures manual for
4 logic and accuracy testing. And that is that you program a set
5 of ballot-marking devices from a polling place with the ballot
6 definition file that they need to conduct the election. All
7 the election data is essentially in place that you'll need for
8 election day.
9 And you line up the ballot-marking devices or put
10 them in a round robin or something like that. And then you
11 proceed down the line. And the first ballot-marking device,
12 you would mark the first candidate in the first contest.
13 And then you would move to the second ballot-marking
14 device and you would test the second candidate in the same
15 contest.
16 And then move to the third ballot-marking device and
17 mark the third candidate and so on down the line.
18 And if you were to run out of candidates before you
19 had run out of ballot-marking devices, if you still had
20 ballot-marking devices that weren't touched, then you would
21 start that process over again.
22 And then you would cast those votes -- those ballots
23 from each -- you would proceed until you were done -- you had
24 sort of exhausted all of the contests and candidates. And then
25 you would print the ballots and use that for verification that
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
41
1 the logic and accuracy testing was working as expected.
2 BY MR. BROWN:
3 Q. Mr. Skoglund, is this -- what offices or BMDs or questions
4 would be missed in the way that Mr. Barnes described it?
5 A. So I think the easiest way to give an example is that that
6 first ballot-marking device where you cast that first vote for
7 that candidate, if there -- I mean, that may be the only
8 ballot-marking device in the whole line that tests for that
9 candidate and to ensure that that candidate -- you know, a
10 touch on the screen results in a vote for that candidate.
11 The other ballot-marking devices on the line
12 potentially -- unless you start the pattern over again, they
13 won't test that. They sort of make the assumption that my
14 sibling or neighbor ballot-marking device has checked this and
15 I don't need to check it for myself.
16 Q. Is one of the things you're testing the sensitivity or
17 correctness of the calibration of the touch screen itself?
18 A. I mean, that is one of the things that you should be
19 testing for, certainly. I mean, screen calibration issues are
20 a common problem with touch screens. And we've seen them
21 affect live elections.
22 Historically it affected them more. But even now in
23 recent elections with recent technology, screen calibration
24 issues impact the election.
25 Q. And so the way that Mr. Barnes described it, you could
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
42
1 have some or many particular vote or vote combinations that the
2 screen would not be tested at all on a particular BMD; right?
3 A. That is right. You would -- you would not be able -- I
4 mean, you would not be able to say anything definitive about
5 whether those other candidates were working, whether touching
6 the screen in those places was working properly.
7 I like to say, you know, you only get answers for what you
8 test. And you can't know that they are working properly
9 because you didn't test its functionality.
10 Q. Have you -- are you aware of any recent and maybe nearby
11 instances in which failures in logic and accuracy testing have
12 had an impact upon an actual election?
13 A. Yes. It happens -- it happens pretty regularly. Logic
14 and accuracy testing will miss things. And often those end up
15 in the headlines when that happens.
16 One that comes to mind, because we were just talking about
17 screen calibration, is -- and I think we talked about this even
18 back in 2020 -- was that in Northampton County, Pennsylvania,
19 in 2019 they had screen calibration issues that affected
20 30 percent of the ballot-marking devices there.
21 And there were two judge candidates where voters could not
22 cast a vote for them. They could not actually, you know,
23 support their candidacy. And those two judge candidates went
24 to court to try and get a remedy for that because the screens
25 on a large number of machines, 30 percent, were not working.

1 Q. Mr. Skoglund, the Court issued an order in 2020 that
2 addressed logic and accuracy testing.
3 Are you aware, from your perspective and looking at the
4 evidence, of any material changes that Georgia has made since
5 the Court issued that order to logic and accuracy testing on
6 the BMDs?
7 A. No. The process, as I understand it, now is exactly what
8 it was when we discussed it in 2020.
9 Q. Okay. Still on logic and accuracy testing but I want to
10 shift gears a little bit.
11 You have described how BMDs are not tested properly in
12 Georgia. But let me ask you this: If BMDs were subjected to
13 rigorous and proper logic and accuracy testing, would such
14 testing protect the BMDs from malware or misprogramming?
15 A. You're asking if you did it perfectly? If you really did
16 just like a superb job of logic and accuracy testing?
17 Q. Exactly.
18 A. No.
19 Q. Why not?
20 A. Logic and accuracy testing is a -- what we call a
21 functional test. You're testing the functionality. You're
22 testing to see whether or not the machine functions the way
23 that you expect.
24 It is not a security test directly. It is only a security
25 test in the sense that if the functionality has been changed
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
44
1 and becomes apparent during your testing, that it might alert
2 you that there's some underlying issue. But if it doesn't
3 alter the functionality during the test, then no, you would not
4 detect it.
5 Q. You were here for Mr. -- Dr. Halderman's demonstration --
6 A. Yes.
7 Q. -- the other day?
8 A. Yes.
9 Q. Would the kind of malware that he was demonstrating on the
10 machine here be caught in logic and accuracy testing?
11 A. He demonstrated a lot. The ones that come to mind
12 though -- you know, some of -- I think maybe all, if not many
13 of the things that he showed, would all take place after logic
14 and accuracy testing was done.
15 The demonstration with the pen, the poll worker card, the
16 technician card, those kind of things are all things that are
17 introduced to the system long after logic and accuracy testing
18 is complete.
19 Q. In your experience and in learning, are there other
20 examples of malware that could evade logic and accuracy
21 testing?
22 A. Yes. Malware that we see outside of elections frequently
23 tries to evade detection to detect when it is under test.
24 There's malware that, you know, looks -- tries to determine
25 whether a security researcher is looking at it or not.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
45
1 A very famous example is Volkswagen. It is called
2 Dieselgate. It is where the software in some of the Volkswagen
3 cars behaved one way in normal use but was able to detect when
4 it was being tested for emissions tests and would behave
5 differently when it detected that.
6 So it is -- software and malware, you know, can be
7 sensitive to its context and its conditions at the time and
8 modify its operation accordingly.
9 So it could detect that it was logic and accuracy testing
10 perhaps by the date on the clock to know that it wasn't
11 election day.
12 Q. Mr. Skoglund, we've been talking about logic and accuracy
13 testing, which is done on the BMDs right before election day.
14 Are you with me?
15 A. Yes.
16 Q. We've also heard the term "parallel testing."
17 What is parallel testing?
18 A. Parallel testing in general is testing the systems at the
19 same time that they are being used. So in this case while the
20 election is going on. So voting is actually in progress and in
21 parallel to that you're conducting tests.
22 Q. And is parallel testing one way or the other materially
23 effective in catching malware or reducing the risk of a
24 cybersecurity attack or catching misprogramming?
25 A. No, I would say not very effective at all. It is nothing
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
46
1 I would ever recommend.
2 Q. From a cybersecurity perspective, why is that the case?
3 A. Again, it is functional testing. Right. So -- and it is
4 similar to logic and accuracy testing just on a -- perhaps a
5 single device or on a smaller scale.
6 So you have those same concerns that malware could detect
7 that it was under test. You also can have, you know, malware
8 that only starts working at a certain time of day. Right. So
9 it doesn't -- you know, it doesn't actually sort of kick into
10 action until 2:00 in the afternoon.
11 And then as Dr. Halderman testified, malware can easily be
12 programmed to be intermittent. Something as simple as every
13 ten votes. Right. So then, you know, you have -- if you have
14 a test where you're just going to go and during the day vote a
15 ballot and check it to see if it functions as you expected, you
16 know, there is a great chance that you would miss it.
17 Like I said about logic and accuracy testing, it is not a
18 security test. It is only effective if you happen to catch
19 that change in the functionality. And malwares can be quite
20 good at evading that.
21 Q. Have you heard the term "hash validation"?
22 Did I get that right?
23 A. Yes.
24 Q. And what is hash validation?
25 A. I'll start with a general explanation and then move to
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
47
1 elections.
2 So with any kind of data, you can create a hash of that
3 data. And the way I typically explain it is if you took a copy
4 of War and Peace and you took all the words in the War and
5 Peace and you alphabetized them and then you counted the
6 instance of each word, you would have a unique set of data
7 about what War and Peace looks like. It is not the text any
8 more. It is a derived text from it.
9 Any copy of War and Peace that you get anywhere in the
10 world you can do that same operation and you will get the same
11 results and you can then say this has not been changed. It is
12 the same.
13 Hashes work the same way. We run any kind of data through
14 an algorithm, and we come up with a fairly succinct bit of
15 letters and numbers that provide like a signature for it.
16 So that is the principle.
17 In elections, we can take some part of the election system
18 and we can do that process on it to get that string of letters
19 and numbers that represent what it is. And a point that I
20 missed in the theory of it is any change that you were to make
21 to it would result in something different. Right. If you
22 remove a word from War and Peace or you add another sentence or
23 something like that, it materially changes what that final
24 outlook looks like.
25 And it is the same with digital data. If you add a space
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
48
1 or take away a letter or add a semicolon or something, the hash
2 will then change. And so you can tell not what was changed but
3 you can tell something changed.
4 Q. How can you use that technology in election security and
5 is it useful?
6 A. So with election technology, you can have the voting
7 system -- a lot of the voting systems have the ability to run
8 that algorithm and to give you the results that they come up
9 with.
10 So they will say, hey, this is what my software -- this is
11 the hash that belongs to my software right now at this moment.
12 So if it were to change later, you could compare those two
13 outputs and know that something changed. That it is not what
14 you expected it to be at the start.
15 So it is a way to check and see whether the software has
16 changed. But that is just a change to the part that you're
17 looking at. And you are asking the machine to self-attest.
18 You're asking the machine to run the algorithm for you.
19 You know, the -- a more reliable way to do the hash
20 testing would be to take that same data on a different system
21 that was trusted and ask it to run that algorithm. But you
22 don't really know whether the machine has given you back the
23 correct value or if malware has, you know, kept track of what
24 the old value used to be and is just presenting that to you
25 again rather than actually running the algorithm.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
49
1 Q. So malware that can hurt the election can also booby trap
2 the hash validation?
3 A. That's right because of the self-attestation. You're
4 trusting the machine to tell that it is not a liar.
5 Q. Now, let me change topics to the replacement of the EMS
6 and the ICC units in Coffee County in June of 2021 by the
7 Secretary of State.
8 Are you with me?
9 A. I am.
10 Q. And just for context, this is just a few weeks after James
11 Barnes had sent the Cyber Ninjas business card to Chris Harvey.
12 Are you with me?
13 A. I am.
14 Q. Have you reviewed the testimony in this case this last
15 week or the week before of Michael Barnes about the replacement
16 of these Coffee County computers in June of 2021?
17 A. Yes, I have.
18 Q. Do you recall the reason that he gave for replacing the
19 EMS and the ICC units?
20 A. The reason he gave was that the password was unknown to
21 them, that it didn't match what the Secretary of State's office
22 had on file and that there was an imminent election.
23 Q. Okay. So two things, imminent election and password
24 didn't work; right?
25 A. Correct.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
50
1 Q. Okay. Did you examine a copy of the EMS and ICC units
2 that were picked up from Coffee County?
3 A. Yes. Those are the subsequent images that I referred to
4 earlier after they had been removed from Coffee County and were
5 in the possession of the State. At some point in the future,
6 another forensic image was made and provided to me.
7 Q. Okay. So just as a little bit of a detour to make sure
8 the foundation for this is set, we have the January 7 snapshot
9 that was taken by SullivanStrickler; correct?
10 A. Correct.
11 Q. And you reviewed that?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. And then you had a subsequent snapshot of the EMS and ICC.
14 And who made that?
15 A. There were actually two subsequent images. One that was
16 made by the -- a person retained by the State. And then the
17 State provided access to a plaintiffs' expert to make another
18 copy. So there were two copies.
19 Q. On the two -- so the two later copies were a snapshot from
20 a different time; right?
21 A. Correct.
22 Q. Okay. So were you able to detect on the later snapshot of
23 the EMS and the ICC anything about the pass codes that would
24 allow access to the ICC and the EMS server?
25 A. Yes. Quite a bit. Because when you -- when you boot up a
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
51
1 Windows computer or when you log into a Windows computer, those
2 things are recorded in the Windows logs.
3 Q. Now, Mr. Barnes said that they couldn't boot up the EMS
4 server.
5 Could you?
6 A. For the -- we're talking about the EMS?
7 Q. The EMS first.
8 A. The EMS I was able to, yes.
9 Q. How did you do that, just briefly?
10 A. I converted it into a virtual machine, as we discussed
11 before, so that I would have an operational copy and could boot
12 it up and see the log-in screen.
13 I first tried a password that I thought might work, which
14 was the password that was on the bottom of Misty Hampton's
15 monitor in the YouTube video that was posted online in December
16 of 2020. That seemed like a good candidate. That did not
17 work.
18 But then I was -- the next thing I tried was that in
19 the -- in the data that SullivanStrickler produced there was a
20 photograph of another Post-it note which had that password, the
21 one on the bottom of the monitor, as well as another one that
22 looked like a password to me. It was very memorable and easy.
23 It was elect#2020. And so I tried that. And that password
24 worked.
25 Q. Okay. So just to be fair, James Barnes and the Secretary
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
52
1 of State might not have had access to the SullivanStrickler
2 video and photographs in June of 2021.
3 Fair enough?
4 A. Yes. I don't know what they had access to or didn't.
5 Yes.
6 Q. But could they have nevertheless worked around the
7 password issue still on the EMS server?
8 A. Yes. Easily.
9 Q. How so?
10 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I'm going to object to down
11 this line. He's testified he is not a computer forensics
12 expert. If he's a cybersecurity expert, you know, he can talk
13 about that. I think -- but this is drifting off into a
14 forensics issue that we have had discussions about separately.
15 MR. BROWN: Let me just ask a foundational question.
16 BY MR. BROWN:
17 Q. Mr. Skoglund, does it take any high-level expertise to get
18 into a Windows system that is running an EMS server?
19 A. To log into it?
20 Q. Yes.
21 A. No, it does not.
22 Q. And if you're not an expert, if you're not qualified, as
23 Mr. Russo is complaining about, to do that, what would you do?
24 Just an ordinary person, what could they do to get into that
25 system?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
53
1 A. I mean, one easy thing is you can call Microsoft. But,
2 you know, if you were really sort of on your own and
3 determined, there are videos that are posted online that are --
4 you know, in plain language walk you through the steps of
5 resetting a Windows password.
6 I mean, it is a common occurrence that people forget their
7 password and get locked out of their accounts. So ...
8 Q. Okay. That is with the EMS server.
9 They also picked up the ICC unit.
10 Are you with me?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. And I believe Mr. Michael Barnes said that they couldn't
13 get into that one either; right?
14 A. Correct.
15 Q. Were you able to log into the ICC unit?
16 A. Yes, I was.
17 Q. How did you do that?
18 A. For the ICC, the password that was on the bottom of Misty
19 Hampton's computer monitor did work. That was the password.
20 Q. So the password on the ICC had never even been changed?
21 A. Correct. I -- you can look at the Windows logs and tell
22 when passwords are changed. And it had not been changed in --
23 any time in recent history.
24 Q. Did you detect any evidence that the ICC had been booted
25 up and actually used?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
54
1 A. I'm sorry. During what time period are we referring to?
2 Q. Just prior to the Secretary of State picking it up because
3 allegedly it couldn't be turned on or booted up in June of
4 2021.
5 A. Yes. It was logged into on that day. The logs recorded
6 the fact that someone logged into it on the same day that the
7 CES took the hardware.
8 Q. Now -- okay. So based upon your review of the evidence,
9 does the evidence support or does it not support Mr. Barnes'
10 explanation that the ICC and the EMS were picked up from Coffee
11 County because they could not get into the computer or because
12 of a password issue?
13 MR. RUSSO: Same objection, Your Honor.
14 THE COURT: Overruled.
15 THE WITNESS: It does not support it for the
16 ImageCast Central, the ICC computer. They were able to log in
17 on that day. So clearly they knew the password and were able
18 to use it.
19 For the election management system, or EMS computer,
20 I don't know whether they knew the password or not. There were
21 no log-ins on that day like there were with the ICC. So there
22 is no indication that they did know the password.
23 But it would have been a trivial matter to reset the
24 password. IT departments, corporate IT departments routinely
25 deal with this kind of thing. You can purchase software that
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
55
1 will allow you to reset passwords.
2 And, in fact, that is what eventually happened when
3 the -- when the State asked -- someone they hired that had more
4 IT expertise, he used one of these software packages that
5 just -- you run a program and it resets the password for you.
6 BY MR. BROWN:
7 Q. Okay. Now, Mr. Barnes also said something about an
8 imminent election was the reason for picking up the ICC and the
9 EMS from Coffee County.
10 Was there an imminent election?
11 A. So I've reviewed all of the minutes for the Coffee County
12 Board of Elections for 2021. And the only reference subsequent
13 to June was to the November 2021 election.
14 Q. In the course of your review of documents in this case,
15 did you run across any other evidence that related to whether
16 the Secretary of State picked up the ICC and the EMS server
17 because of the password issue?
18 A. Yes, I did.
19 Q. And what did you uncover? And first, for foundational
20 purposes, what data set are you referring to?
21 A. I reviewed documents, including emails, that were on a
22 forensic image that I was told were provided by the State
23 defendants to the plaintiffs and that the State defendants had
24 obtained from the GBI, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.
25 And the Georgia Bureau of Investigation had made the
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
56
1 forensic image of a computer that was in Coffee County -- I'd
2 call a desktop computer.
3 Q. And are the documents that you are referring to emails?
4 A. Yes, they are.
5 Q. And who were the emails from and to?
6 A. The emails are from James Barnes, the election director in
7 Coffee County, to someone named Deb Cox, who I understand to be
8 the election director of Lowndes County.
9 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, may I approach?
10 THE COURT: Yes.
11 BY MR. BROWN:
12 Q. Mr. Skoglund, are Coalition Plaintiffs' Exhibit 41 and 42
13 the documents that you discovered in the disc drive that was
14 given to us by the State defendants, which they had received
15 from the GBI, which the GBI had received from Coffee County?
16 A. Yes, they are.
17 Q. And do you see where Deb Cox is commenting on a draft memo
18 and suggests that Mr. James Barnes make a correction, and she
19 says CES also brought a new server, not correct, delete this
20 line. They took it but not because the password had changed?
21 Do you see that?
22 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I'm going to object to all of
23 this as inadmissible hearsay. I realize experts, at times, can
24 rely on inadmissible hearsay. But there has to be some
25 guardrails around it regarding its trustworthiness and
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

1 accuracy.
2 These two emails, they were not produced by the
3 State. I think what Mr. Brown is saying is they were produced
4 in a server image that was produced by the State.
5 Is that what you are saying?
6 MR. BROWN: Well, physically we got them from you.
7 MR. RUSSO: They are not Bates stamped with a
8 State -- I just don't know -- when we got them recently, this
9 was the first we had seen them.
10 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, the State and -- the GBI and
11 the Secretary of State and State defendants may not have even
12 looked at the disc that Misty -- that was made from Misty
13 Hampton's computer. A lack of interest. Don't know.
14 THE COURT: Well, were they Bates stamped or not?
15 MR. BROWN: No. These are documents that we
16 pulled --
17 THE COURT: Off of the server?
18 MR. BROWN: -- off the server, yes, Your Honor.
19 These are not -- the Bates stamped documents are ones
20 that were officially produced in discovery. This we got
21 indirectly from the GBI through the Robbins Firm.
22 And that's where we got this document. And it has no
23 indicia that it is not authentic. We didn't create it. It
24 matches up with Exhibit 45, which is already in evidence.
25 THE COURT: Did I get 45?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

58
1 Harry, do you have Exhibit 45 there?
2 MR. BROWN: CGG 45, I think.
3 COURTROOM DEPUTY CLERK: I don't. Is it admitted?
4 MR. BROWN: Yes. CGG 45, which is Mr. Barnes' edited
5 memo to Blanchard.
6 And the only other thing I would add, Your Honor, is
7 that --
8 THE COURT: So when she -- when this was sent,
9 Exhibit 45, was the attachment the document on the right-hand
10 side of my screen or is it a different one?
11 MR. BROWN: What you are looking at is the actual
12 memo that was sent by James Barnes to Mr. Blanchard. And that
13 is the actual memo.
14 The memo that is on Exhibit 41 is the draft memo that
15 James Barnes sent to Deb Cox for her review. And that draft
16 memo says CES also brought a new server because Ms. Hampton had
17 changed the server password. And it is that sentence that Deb
18 Cox recommends to Mr. Barnes to delete saying they took it but
19 not because the password had changed.
20 THE COURT: Okay. Well, why don't we take a few
21 minutes of a break, and I will take a look at these documents.
22 So I want to make sure I have the totality of the
23 relevant ones to look at though.
24 MR. CROSS: Could I add one quick thing on this? It
25 is also worth noting that this email is from Deb Cox, the

1 superintendent of the county. We have heard from numerous
2 State witnesses that they rely on the counties for important
3 things like security. So I don't think they can --
4 THE COURT: That's fine. But I want to read them.
5 MR. CROSS: Right.
6 MR. RUSSO: I would simply note that Deb Cox -- even
7 if you look at her email here, it says Lowndes County on it.
8 THE COURT: I understand that it was Lowndes County.
9 That wasn't a question. They were communicating between
10 themselves.
11 But I'm looking at it. And is there -- I just want
12 to make sure I have everything that is relevant to this so I'm
13 not taking three minutes for no purpose.
14 Is there anything else that is relevant to this other
15 than what you've handed me? I have 41, 42, and --
16 MR. BROWN: CGG 45.
17 THE COURT: Okay. That is what I was looking for.
18 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, that is the end of this
19 topic. We're going to move on to one more topic.
20 THE COURT: I want to know what 45 is.
21 MR. BROWN: 45 is --
22 THE COURT: Does anyone have a copy they can provide
23 me?

5 Whichever way you want.
6 BY MR. BROWN:
7 Q. Mr. Skoglund, are Coalition Exhibits 41 and 42 the
8 evidence that you were referring to with respect to additional
9 evidence that Mr. Barnes' statement about the reasons for
10 replacing the ICC and the EMS might be -- not be accurate?
11 A. Yes. That's correct.
12 MR. BROWN: That is it on that topic, Your Honor.
13 THE COURT: All right. And 45 has been -- has or has
14 not been tendered before?

16 MR. CROSS: It is in evidence, Your Honor.
17 THE COURT: That's what I'm trying to find out.
18 MR. BROWN: It is in evidence.
19 Caution, Mr. Martin, it may have been admitted with a
20 duplicate number. I'm not sure if it is the same number, but
21 the identical document I know has been admitted.
22 THE COURT: All right. Well, I'll get you to admit
23 it again then -- seek its submission again so we make sure that
24 we have it since we're referring to it now as 45.

7 THE COURT: Have a seat.
8 Well, Ms. Cox's email is hearsay. But hearsay under
9 703 is permissible for an expert to review and consider in his
10 opinion of facts. But if the facts would otherwise be
11 inadmissible, the proponent of the opinion may disclose them to
12 the jury only if their probative value in helping the jury
13 evaluate the opinions substantially outweighs their prejudicial
14 effect.
15 Well, of course, we don't have a jury here. And the
16 concerns about prejudice are not exactly the same.
17 In any event, I mean, I think that there is a --
18 without respect to whether the information contained in Cox's
19 email back to Mr. Barnes is accurate or not, it is clearly part
20 of a chain of communications between him and -- between James
21 Barnes and Ms. Cox. And you can see that in part by
22 Mr. Barnes' -- the sequence of time in these emails.
23 So that he wrote her -- Ms. Cox a note. I don't have

6 sends her a one-paragraph statement, which is not, in fact, the
7 one that he ultimately sent to -- that he sent later on.
8 So she then writes at 9:50 A.M. on August 24th that
9 is clearly in response to his email, which -- and it is easier
10 to see on Exhibit 42 the date of his original letter to her.
11 And that says August 24th, 9:14 A.M. And then she
12 responds to him less than an hour later, really 20 minutes or
13 so at 9:50 A.M. on August 24th with a letter we have that is in
14 Exhibit 24.
15 And I think that sequence is sufficient. And we know
16 that his letter was sent. Not Exhibit 41. The letter he sent
17 to Mr. Barnes is -- I think has all the indicia of reliability
18 and -- regarding the conditions of the equipment he found. And
19 he has taken into account also the comments from his colleague
20 running another -- the elections office in another county. I
21 think that is all -- those are good indicia of reliability.
22 And so even if it is hearsay, it is admissible for
23 Mr. Skoglund's consideration.
24 MR. BROWN: Thank you, Your Honor.
25 I will --
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT

1 THE COURT: I don't think you admitted Exhibit 45
2 before. But -- however -- and I don't know all the documents
3 that were in 45. But in any event, it looks like the documents
4 are there in 42. But you would have to -- you need to check
5 it. I don't want to say that this replaces your tender of 45
6 that was -- that you said later on you were going to hook up to
7 it. But maybe 41 gives you -- gives the original -- what he
8 originally wrote and sent to Ms. -- to Deb Cox.
9 MR. BROWN: Yes, Your Honor. We would move to admit
10 41, which is James Barnes' email to Deb Cox, which encloses a
11 draft of the memo to whom it may concern.
12 We would move to admit 42, which does two things.
13 First, it puts a date on 41 and a time. And it also shows
14 Ms. Cox's return email. So we would move those into admission.
15 And then Exhibit 45 may be a duplicate exhibit. But
16 we believe it is admissible. And to be careful, we would like
17 to go ahead and move that that also be admitted into evidence.
18 THE COURT: Because you think you used the word --
19 the Number 45 in preceding examination so you just want to make
20 sure that --
21 MR. BROWN: Yes. It is 45, but it is Coalition
22 Plaintiffs' Exhibit 45.
23 THE COURT: All right.
24 MR. BROWN: Thank you, Your Honor.
25 THE COURT: Yes.

64
1 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, we appreciate your decision
2 on this. And we agree that hearsay can be used in certain
3 circumstances under 703 in forming an opinion.
4 I think at the end of the day he has to still form an
5 opinion. He can't just parrot the hearsay as his opinion. He
6 has to use it to form an opinion.
7 THE COURT: I don't know that he is. He had so many
8 objections before he actually said anything that I can't even
9 get to the point of what his testimony was, other than the fact
10 that he was mentioning what was in -- what he saw in -- he
11 had -- the document is actually -- of course, the -- I guess
12 the server that was given to -- a copy of the server that was
13 given to you.
14 THE WITNESS: Correct.
15 THE COURT: And then -- or of that -- and that this
16 is what he saw and he produced. And, of course, he -- he
17 received the server via the counsel for the State.
18 MR. BROWN: Thank you, Your Honor.
19 We would --
20 THE COURT: But if you want to more specifically hook
21 up his opinion to anything, then now you -- because of the time
22 frame and the fact that we've been fussing over the testimony,
23 I think we ought to get clear about what the testimony is that
24 is linked -- that he's considered all of this in connection
25 with.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT

1 BY MR. BROWN:
2 Q. Mr. Skoglund, over the course of your testimony, you were
3 discussing your opinions on whether Mr. Barnes' rationale for
4 picking up the ICC server and the EMS server was consistent
5 with the evidence that you had reviewed.
6 You with me?
7 THE COURT: All right.
8 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, if he's giving an opinion on
9 whether the State's rationale was consistent, I don't -- that
10 is -- he is not -- he is the cybersecurity expert. That has
11 got nothing to do with being a cybersecurity expert. It is not
12 expert testimony.
13 MR. BROWN: I'm not asking for any public policy
14 position or any sort of social science rationale about the
15 State. I'm asking the witness whether the reason -- if
16 rationale is the wrong word, the reason given for picking up
17 those two units from Coffee County three weeks after the Cyber
18 Ninja incident can be explained, because as Mr. Barnes said the
19 password is changed. I'm getting his opinion on that.
20 THE COURT: I think that that is a little bit -- that
21 is stretching things. If you want to use -- I think there are
22 things you can ask him about this that are helpful to the Court
23 without asking that question, which is -- sort of asks for him
24 to assess the credibility.
25 But, I mean, you can obviously elicit anything that
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
66
1 may be contradictory to him personally as he is looking at the
2 sequence of things. He has already testified that anyone -- it
3 is standard to be able to change passwords. He explained all
4 of that. And so -- and that that is a common feature of any IT
5 department or any -- anyone who is working with software or
6 hardware, in fact.
7 But that is -- that is something different. So, I
8 mean, I've let it in. But I think that you need to hook up --
9 you need to think about how -- which you have already obviously
10 plenty of time to do. But think about what is it you want him
11 to testify about.
12 I mean, he had -- he receives this disc. And you're
13 looking through it. And then go from there. I mean, what
14 strikes him, but without making a credibility assessment about
15 the State. I can draw that.
16 MR. BROWN: Sure.
17 BY MR. BROWN:
18 Q. Mr. Skoglund, when you received the disc from defense
19 counsel, which they had received from the GBI, did you
20 undertake to search that disc drive for information that was
21 relevant to Coffee County?
22 A. So the -- when you say the drive, you are referring to the
23 subsequent images of EMS and ICC?
24 Q. No. I'm talking about from the GBI.
25 A. Oh, sorry. The desktop computer is how I refer to it.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
67
1 The desktop computer. GBI took that image. Then yes, I was
2 interested to find out -- that was not a computer that was
3 copied by SullivanStrickler. That was not data that I had seen
4 before.
5 So it was the computer, as I understood it, from the
6 Coffee County elections office that was used by Misty Hampton,
7 James Barnes, and his successor in their daily activities. And
8 so I was keenly interested to see how that linked up with the
9 other evidence that was on the other drives and data that I did
10 have.
11 Q. And it was in the context of that that you found the Deb
12 Cox exchange with James Barnes?
13 A. Yes. By searching through the emails and looking for
14 relevant material.
15 Q. Okay.
16 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, I think we've -- I think
17 we've covered this in terms of how we believe the evidence
18 lines up on this issue.
19 THE COURT: All right. Fine. Thank you.
20 MR. BROWN: I'll move on.
21 BY MR. BROWN:
22 Q. Mr. Skoglund, have you reviewed Gabriel Sterling's
23 testimony from this case from last week?
24 A. Yes, I have.
25 Q. Do you recall his testimony about an incident in
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
68
1 Northampton this past November election?
2 A. Yes, I do.
3 Q. And I believe Northampton is the same county that you
4 testified about in -- your testimony might have been in 2020.
5 But there was another incident in Northampton in 2019.
6 Do you recall that testimony?
7 A. That's correct.
8 Q. Now, are you familiar with the incident this year or in
9 November in Northampton?
10 A. Yes.
11 Q. And how did you become knowledgeable about that?
12 A. So as I testified earlier, I'm in Montgomery County,
13 Pennsylvania. That is near Philadelphia. It is -- another
14 county that is near Philadelphia is Northampton County. So it
15 is not quite a neighbor, but it is in the region.
16 And I am the president of a group called Citizens for
17 Better Elections, which is a nonpartisan nonprofit that is
18 interested in elections primarily in Pennsylvania.
19 And several of our members of Citizens for Better
20 Elections reside in Northampton. So it is very much a county
21 that we focus on and pay attention to.
22 And then, you know, it also is a particular interest
23 because when Northampton was deciding what voting system to
24 purchase, I went and consulted with members of the Government
25 there.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
69
1 And then when the first incident happened in 2019, I, you
2 know, paid a lot of attention to that and analyzed what was
3 happening then. And then again when this incident happened, it
4 seemed like, okay, this is once again happening.
5 And I am an election technology expert. I am interested
6 in anytime technology, you know, behaves in a surprising way
7 for elections.
8 Q. Mr. Skoglund, have you written up anything on the incident
9 in Northampton County in November 2023?
10 A. Yes, I wrote up a report on what happened.
11 Q. I'm going to show you what has been marked as Coalition
12 Plaintiffs' Exhibit 40.
13 Mr. Skoglund, is Exhibit 40 a copy of your article on
14 election problems in Northampton County, Pennsylvania?
15 A. Yes.
16 Q. And I don't -- it is a long article. And I have no
17 intention of going through --
18 MR. BROWN: Well, first, I move to admit this as the
19 witness' article on Northampton County.
20 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I guess -- I mean, this is a
21 2020 -- November 2023 article. It was written well past the
22 expert disclosure deadline. I don't know, you know, what the
23 tie is here to expert testimony other than to try to bolster
24 the expert's testimony.
25 But we don't think it is relevant to the issues in
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
70
1 this case.
2 MR. BROWN: Couple of things. One, it is not to
3 bolster his credentials. He has a lot of other publications,
4 and he's already been acknowledged as an expert.
5 In terms of the date, it is dated -- it is dated
6 recently because it just happened in the most recent election.
7 In terms of whether this is within the scope of his
8 expert testimony, the door to the Northampton issue was opened
9 by Gabe Sterling in his direct testimony. He volunteered it as
10 an example. We didn't even bring it up.
11 THE COURT: Remind me what he was saying as to
12 Northampton.
13 MR. BROWN: I will get to that in the examination
14 with Mr. -- I can do it also, but Mr. Skoglund --
15 THE COURT: I just want you to remind me so I can
16 understand the significance or lack of significance of it.
17 Just the basic facts, not --
18 MR. BROWN: In Northampton the vote was switched
19 between judges on a retention ballot that way --
20 THE COURT: I remember. All right.
21 MR. BROWN: And -- so he opened the door. And then
22 it was discussed at length by Mr. Sterling sua sponte. So
23 we're responding to -- it is relevant generally. It just
24 happened. So it is not in previous declarations.
25 However, as Mr. Skoglund testified, he has been
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
71
1 tracking Northampton. And his first -- the first incident in
2 Northampton is in the record. It is one of his declarations,
3 and it is a part of his expert testimony. This is just
4 updating it.
5 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, if this is a supplement to an
6 expert report, then he needed to supplement his expert
7 testimony.
8 THE COURT: Why doesn't he just testify about it and
9 not use the article? I mean, you know, he has indicated he has
10 written an article on it. And that is fine.
11 But what we want to know is what he thinks is
12 significant about it in light of his evaluation -- this case,
13 the testimony so far by him, as well as by Mr. Sterling.
14 MR. BROWN: Fair enough, Your Honor. We will put the
15 article to the side and get the information from the witness.
16 THE COURT: All right.
17 BY MR. BROWN:
18 Q. Now, you heard Mr. Sterling's testimony. Did he get the
19 facts right about what happened in Northampton, Pennsylvania,
20 in November?
21 A. He may have got a couple of facts right, but he got many
22 facts wrong.
23 Q. What did he get wrong?
24 A. For example, I recall being very surprised when he said
25 that he -- his understanding was that Northampton knew about
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
72
1 this problem ahead of election day and proceeded anyway. That
2 was very surprising to me. That is not true.
3 Q. And just in general, what -- he did describe generally
4 what happened correctly; right?
5 And could you explain -- just remind the Court what the
6 basic problem was that caused the incident in Northampton.
7 A. So the incident in Northampton was that ballot programming
8 problems -- when the ballots were programmed to be suitable for
9 the -- for the ballot-marking device, had a mistake in them.
10 And that mistake -- the result of that mistake was that voters
11 casting their ballots in the election would mark one thing on
12 the screen and then the ballot that would be printed out by the
13 ballot-marking device showed text that was not what they had
14 selected on the screen. It was changed.
15 Q. As a judge of elections, did the judge of elections in
16 Northampton County have any good options at that time?
17 A. No. And I would note not all judge of elections realized
18 that there was a problem. You know, some polling places
19 notified the county that they saw it. But other judges of
20 elections did not hear about it until the county told them
21 about it. They didn't know about it until then.
22 Q. But if you are in the position of Northampton and you
23 learn that a BMD is making that mistake, what should an
24 election director do or what can they do?
25 A. Well, we saw what they did do. Some let voters continue
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
73
1 voting because they didn't know about the problem or because
2 they didn't know what else to do. Some stopped voters from
3 voting. Some closed their polling place and told voters to
4 come back later.
5 Some of them told -- since they were voting one way and
6 getting a different result on the paper and the judge of
7 election had some sense that what was on the paper that the
8 voter could read mattered, they would tell voters to vote the
9 opposite way on the screen so that they could then get the
10 paper to be right, to sort of try to work around the problem
11 that way.
12 Q. And Mr. Sterling mentioned that he -- if presented in the
13 same situation he would replace all the BMDs or not use the
14 BMDs that were malfunctioning.
15 Is that a realistic solution, in your view?
16 A. I recall his testimony being that he would pull a
17 ballot-marking device from service.
18 This was all the ballot-marking devices in the entire
19 county. So if you pulled them all from service, then, you
20 know, essentially you have shut down the election until you
21 solve the problem.
22 Q. Mr. Sterling also testified that the same thing could
23 happen with the hand-marked paper ballot and in terms of the
24 chaos and the aftermath of discovering the problem.
25 Could this sort of problem happen with a voting system
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
74
1 that primarily uses hand-marked paper ballots?
2 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, I think this is outside the
3 scope of his expert testimony. He is a cybersecurity expert,
4 not an election administration expert. You know, I've tried to
5 kind of let it go --
6 THE COURT: All right. I'm going to say you should
7 move on.
8 MR. BROWN: Okay.
9 BY MR. BROWN:
10 Q. One more topic, Mr. Skoglund, and it is about the EMS
11 server.
12 You testified -- again, you testified that you had
13 reviewed a copy of the EMS server that the Secretary of State
14 had obtained from Coffee County.
15 Are you with me?
16 A. Yes. Two images, one that they obtained and one that the
17 plaintiffs obtained.
18 Q. And I believe that Mr. Persinger -- did he make a copy?
19 A. That is the first one -- the State obtained, that was a
20 forensic image made by Mr. Persinger.
21 Q. And did -- were you able to determine whether when he
22 booted up the EMS any files were lost or destroyed?
23 A. Yes, I was.
24 Q. And what was your -- what was your -- what did you find?
25 A. So when you conduct a -- when you make a forensic image,
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
75
1 it has to be done carefully because the purpose of doing it is
2 to preserve the hard drive exactly as it is. And if you take
3 certain actions, like booting it up, then you change it.
4 Because booting it up, you know, runs through a set of
5 processes on the machine. And if nothing else, it generates
6 log files and erases old log files. But, you know, it can make
7 other changes as well. So it has to be done carefully.
8 And both with Mr. Persinger and even with
9 SullivanStrickler, we saw that they made mistakes in the way
10 that they were doing that, which modified those drives in the
11 process. They did not, you know -- sorry, SullivanStrickler,
12 they did it for one computer. They made a mistake like that.
13 For the other ones, they appeared to have done it without
14 disturbing the evidence. So there is no evidence that they did
15 disturb it.
16 But for Mr. Persinger, yes, it appears that his activity
17 in trying to boot up the system and then to reset the password
18 on the system made many changes.
19 Q. And do you know about how many changes or files were lost?
20 Do you know how many changes were made or how many files
21 were lost?
22 A. I do not know as I sit here. I submitted a declaration on
23 this point where I enumerated all of the changes that I
24 observed.
25 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, let me speak --
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

76
1 THE COURT: Are you introducing that --
2 MR. BROWN: No, Your Honor.
3 THE COURT: -- declaration?
4 MR. BROWN: Not at this time, Your Honor, no.
5 THE COURT: All right. So what is the range? Are we
6 talking about, just for the record, two, five, a thousand, two
7 thousand? A hundred? What is the range?
8 THE WITNESS: As I sit here, I believe it was
9 hundreds. I don't think it was thousands, but it also wasn't a
10 small number.
11 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, I may have a couple more
12 questions. But I'm about done. I just need to check with
13 counsel.
14 THE COURT: Okay.
15 (There was a brief pause in the proceedings.)
16 MR. BROWN: That's all I have at this time, Your
17 Honor.
18 Thank you.
19 THE COURT: I just want -- was the data changed in
20 those hundreds of files or were you able to determine or were
21 they just simply destroyed and lost, the change -- or were
22 they -- what is the nature of the types of changes you
23 observed?
24 THE WITNESS: The -- it is both. Files being added,
25 files being removed, and files being changed. All three of

6 A. Nice to see you.
7 Q. It's the first time we've had the pleasure of meeting.
8 And I'm sorry that you've had to be here for so many days. And
9 I guess, unfortunately, the weather is not any warmer here
10 probably than it is where you are from.
11 A. It is not. But the food is good here.
12 Q. I do want to ask you a couple of questions as we start
13 about where you just left off regarding the imaging and your
14 review of this.
15 Now, you previously testified that you were not an expert
16 in computer forensics; is that correct?
17 A. I did not testify that -- I don't remember testifying to
18 that.
19 Q. Now, do you recall the date that the Secretary of State's
20 office took possession of the Coffee County --
21 THE COURT: Could you just move it -- thank you -- so
22 we can hear you better.

24 Q. -- Coffee County servers.
25 MR. RUSSO: Sorry, I'll speak louder.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

1 BY MR. RUSSO:
2 Q. Do you recall the date that the Secretary of State's
3 office took possession of the Coffee County servers?
4 A. Yes, I do.
5 Q. And can you tell us, who is -- who is RDT? You mentioned
6 a company called RDT earlier.
7 What is that company?
8 A. I don't believe I mentioned them by name. I think I
9 described them as someone hired by the plaintiffs.
10 But that is the name of the company that the plaintiffs
11 used to make a forensic image of the ICC and the EMS that were
12 in the State's possession.
13 Q. Okay. And have you -- do you have any experience with
14 that company from any other work?
15 A. I do not.
16 Q. Now, you stated -- and I'll go ahead and just show you
17 your declaration to make this a little easier on us all.
18 (There was a brief pause in the proceedings.)
19 BY MR. RUSSO:
20 Q. I'm just going to show -- I'm just showing it to you. I'm
21 not admitting it.
22 And if we can turn to Paragraph 5 on Page 2. You state
23 that -- thank you.
24 You state that RDT was engaged to create forensic images
25 of the EMS and ICC in PMI's possession.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
79
1 At the bottom, second sentence.
2 A. Was there a question?
3 Q. That was your understanding that RDT was engaged to create
4 forensic images?
5 A. Yes. That's correct.
6 Q. And to the best of your knowledge, did -- do you know who
7 did that work for RDT?
8 A. I have no firsthand knowledge. But I have been told that
9 it was Rob Draper, I believe that is the R and D in RDT.
10 Q. And do you have any understanding of what forensic
11 software RDT used to create those images?
12 A. I do not.
13 MR. CROSS: Your Honor, could I ask the relevance?
14 MR. RUSSO: Well, I was kind of wondering the
15 relevance of it myself when Mr. Brown was bringing it up
16 because it seemed to me to be more of a discovery issue than an
17 issue in this case.
18 But since Mr. Brown raised it and it appeared to be
19 going to the credibility of the State, I felt like it was
20 necessary to ask some questions about Mr. Skoglund's work and
21 his testimony.
22 MR. CROSS: My understanding --
23 MR. RUSSO: I'm happy to move on if Your Honor is not
24 going to consider that.
25 MR. CROSS: My understanding of what Mr. Brown was
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
80
1 asking about was just to establish that the original EMS server
2 the State took from Coffee County -- that there were hundreds
3 of files that were deleted or altered or added by their
4 forensic consultant when he booted it up.
5 What Mr. Russo is getting into is something totally
6 unrelated, which is an e-discovery vendor we hired to just come
7 in and copy the two servers.
8 And again, I mean, we will address this later when we
9 get to Mr. Persinger's issues. But there's actually no dispute
10 in this case that that happened on the original server. There
11 is a dispute about whether some of those files may be reflected
12 on a copy. But no one disputes that that is what happened on
13 the original server.
14 MR. RUSSO: Well, there is a dispute, Your Honor.
15 And I think his declaration shows that the copy he got -- he
16 received that was supposedly the Persinger copy, he couldn't
17 open. And he got a separate copy from Dr. Halderman that was
18 sent to him over a secure network.
19 So there is a question here as to what was he looking
20 at.
21 THE COURT: Go ahead.
22 MR. RUSSO: And was he looking at what Dr. --
23 THE COURT: Go ahead.
24 But do you agree -- I mean, putting aside what he was
25 looking at, objectively speaking, did -- did the copy created
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
81
1 by Mr. Persinger delete or change files?
2 MR. RUSSO: I think we will have to have
3 Mr. Persinger testify to that. I am not a forensic expert. I
4 will tell you that.
5 THE COURT: Is he on your witness list?
6 MR. RUSSO: He is on our witness list.
7 THE COURT: Okay.
8 BY MR. RUSSO:
9 Q. So just to confirm, you were not able to access,
10 Mr. Skoglund, the image that you originally received of
11 Mr. Persinger's copy?
12 A. I'm sorry?
13 Q. The forensic image that Mr. Persinger created, you had --
14 I think you said there was BitLocker on it?
15 A. So -- sorry. You're asking if whether initially when I
16 was given the image that Mr. Persinger had whether I was able
17 to access it. And no, I was not. It had a password on the
18 image -- on the drive, not on the image on the drive itself, so
19 that no information could be accessed on it. And that is what
20 we referred to as BitLocker. That is a technology that allows
21 you to encrypt data at rest.
22 Q. What was your understanding of how many copies
23 Mr. Persinger had transmitted to plaintiffs' consultant to
24 begin with?
25 A. I don't know that I know that number.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

82
1 Q. You know Dr. Halderman got one copy; correct?
2 A. Correct.
3 Q. And it was your understanding that his copy did not have a
4 password protection on it?
5 A. Correct.
6 Q. And so then after you could not access the version you
7 received, what did you do?
8 A. When I couldn't -- first, I reached out to the plaintiffs'
9 counsel and let them know that I could not access it. My
10 recollection is that then they reached back out to the
11 State's counsel and said, there is a password on this drive.
12 What is it?
13 I think they may have also reached out to RDT as well.
14 I then was told that the State reached out to
15 Mr. Persinger who said that they -- he had not put any password
16 on the drive. That was relayed back then through counsel to
17 me.
18 I then sent screenshots showing that the drive was, in
19 fact, encrypted with BitLocker software. And I was not able to
20 access it.
21 I think then it went back through counsel and sort of hit
22 an impasse. I reached out then through counsel to Alex
23 Halderman -- Dr. Alex Halderman. And he said he told them that
24 his copy did not have a password on the hard drive and he was
25 able to get the image.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
83
1 And so then we arranged for him to send me the forensic
2 image that he had through a secure transmission over the
3 internet.
4 Q. Were you ever able to determine who created the copy you
5 received?
6 A. No, I could not do anything with the drive. When you plug
7 it in, the first thing that pops up is a password screen and
8 you can't proceed any further.
9 So I know nothing about it, except that it was locked with
10 a password.
11 Q. So you never reviewed the version that you received --
12 that you believe you received from Mr. Persinger?
13 A. For that -- for one specific one. For the other one --
14 there were two images from Mr. Persinger. It is confusing
15 because there's so many. But there were ICC and EMS. ICC and
16 EMS from Persinger. ICC and EMS from the plaintiffs'
17 contractor.
18 One of the two from Mr. Persinger I could not open.
19 THE COURT: Which --
20 MR. RUSSO: I think you were about to ask the
21 question.
22 BY MR. RUSSO:
23 Q. Which one was it?
24 A. I don't recall now which one it was. That's --
25 Q. The EMS --
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
84
1 A. It is in my declaration. But I don't recall which one it
2 was.
3 THE COURT: Have you been given a copy of your
4 declaration?
5 MR. RUSSO: I was just trying to show him to refresh
6 his memory, Your Honor, on the screen. We're not planning to
7 submit that.
8 THE COURT: I'm just wondering -- I would like to
9 know which one it was.
10 MR. RUSSO: I can direct --
11 THE COURT: Which one was he actually able to access
12 and which one was he not able to access that Mr. Persinger gave
13 him?
14 MR. RUSSO: I believe it was the EMS image. But I'll
15 let -- I will tell you this is not a topic we were planning to
16 engage in today, so that's why we're a little disheveled.
17 THE COURT: That's all right.
18 It is in the same one that is on the screen?
19 MR. RUSSO: It is. If you want to just scroll down
20 to the next page.
21 THE COURT: I'm sure you could find it if you --
22 MR. RUSSO: It appears it says -- if you look at
23 Paragraph 7.
24 May I approach, Your Honor?
25 THE COURT: I'm reading it on the screen.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

85
1 Can you go to Page 3?
2 THE WITNESS: This refreshes my memory if you would
3 like to --
4 BY MR. RUSSO:
5 Q. Would you like to tell us which one it was now.
6 A. So I was incorrect. It was actually both images. They
7 were on a single hard drive. It wasn't on separate hard
8 drives. There was another hard drive. So I had one hard drive
9 that worked, one hard drive that didn't.
10 And I was -- I misspoke when I said that they were
11 separate for Mr. Persinger. So both of Mr. Persinger's
12 weren't.
13 But I spoke about hash validation earlier. You can check
14 the hashes to make sure they match what Mr. Persinger had to
15 make sure that the data has not been altered.
16 Q. Just to be clear, when you say the one you received from
17 Mr. Persinger, that is -- you are referring to the one you
18 received from RDT?
19 A. The one that was given to me by plaintiffs' counsel that
20 they represented had been made by RDT.
21 Q. Okay. You didn't -- you didn't receive it directly from
22 Mr. Persinger?
23 A. No, I have never met him.
24 Q. Moving on.
25 It is your opinion that the idea of a perfectly secure --
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
86
1 a perfectly secure voting system that relies on computers is
2 not one that from a cybersecurity perspective exists?
3 A. I think that fundamentally misunderstands the field of
4 cybersecurity. That is -- that is not how we approach it at
5 all.
6 Q. How do you -- tell us how you would approach that then.
7 A. Well, we don't think of things as being secure and
8 insecure. I mean, just like you wouldn't think of your house
9 of being secure or insecure. There is no perfectly secure bank
10 vault. So it is not useful to talk about something being
11 secure or being insecure.
12 Instead, the analysis that you do is a risk analysis where
13 you look at the threats and the things that could do harm to
14 whatever you are trying to protect.
15 In this case, parts of the voting system. And then you
16 look at the potential that those threats would be realized.
17 You look at what the impact of those threats would be if they
18 are realized. And then you -- you have a whole bunch of
19 threats at that point. You then have to weigh them against
20 each other to decide the priority in which you want to focus on
21 them.
22 So there may be some threats that you consider higher
23 priority and you sort of put top of your list. There may be
24 other threats that you view as improbable and not worth the
25 time and resources on them. It is really -- it is a full
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
87
1 analysis rather than a yes-or-no binary question.
2 Q. And did you do -- did you do any of that type of analysis
3 in forming your opinions in this case?
4 A. Yes. Constantly. Yes.
5 Q. And so tell us a little bit more about that. How did you
6 determine the risk level -- I think Dr. Halderman referred to
7 it as degrees of risk is what he said that he would look at.
8 How did you determine and measure the risk that -- you
9 know, the likelihood of a threat occurring?
10 A. I mean, that is really broad. Do you -- do you have a
11 specific threat in mind that you are --
12 Q. Well, I guess what I am trying to understand is --
13 because -- since we didn't see any such risk analysis, is what
14 analysis you actually did to assess whether the likelihood of a
15 threat was to occur?
16 Can you just walk us through that process?
17 A. I mean, I wasn't -- I have never been asked to -- to
18 evaluate Georgia's entire voting system and all the threats the
19 way that Fortalice, you know, was hired to do.
20 That is not -- that is not something that I have been
21 asked to do.
22 I do routinely -- I mean, that is -- daily I am making
23 that evaluation. I think that the place that you see it
24 probably most clearly, if you're saying you don't see it, is in
25 the Coffee County declaration where I do perform an analysis
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
88
1 and do talk about whether this was unauthorized access, what
2 are the potential harms that can come from that access, how
3 this event increased the likelihood of all of those harms
4 coming to life.
5 I talked about the -- what I viewed as the impact of those
6 realized harms. And, you know, concluded that this is a
7 significant concern with very high risks and that Georgia
8 should move expeditiously to mitigate them.
9 Q. And since you mentioned your Coffee County declaration, I
10 think we can -- that might be a good point to look at.
11 It is plaintiffs -- I believe it is Curling Plaintiffs'
12 Exhibit 471.
13 MR. RUSSO: May I approach, Your Honor?
14 THE COURT: Yes. Thank you.
15 THE WITNESS: I have never seen it printed before.
16 It is quite thick.
17 BY MR. RUSSO:
18 Q. Now, is -- this is the declaration you are referring to?
19 A. I mean, I haven't looked at all of the pages. But based
20 on the first page, yes, this is my declaration related to
21 Coffee County. And it was 79 pages long.
22 Q. A lot of ink went into it; right?
23 Now, I'm trying to -- remind me which -- what was the
24 example you just gave of one of your assessments?
25 MR. BROWN: I'm sorry. I didn't hear or understand
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
89
1 the question.
2 MR. RUSSO: I'm sorry. I'm trying to find my copy.
3 THE COURT: He said what is the --
4 BY MR. RUSSO:
5 Q. Mr. Skoglund, let's walk -- walk us through your --
6 MR. RUSSO: I'm just going to use this one. This is
7 fine.
8 BY MR. RUSSO:
9 Q. Page -- on Page 3 you go through a summary of your
10 conclusions; is that right?
11 A. Yes. Page 3 is where the summary of conclusions begins.
12 Q. And you state that the system was breached; is that --
13 that's right?
14 A. Correct. In A.
15 Q. And so your risk analysis that you conducted determined
16 that -- well, you didn't determine anything there. But did you
17 make a determination about future breaches?
18 A. I'm sorry?
19 Q. You assessed future breaches. So you determined that a
20 breach occurred in Coffee County.
21 Did you do any assessment regarding potential future
22 breaches similar to that in Coffee County?
23 A. Yes. I do talk about that in the implication section.
24 Q. Okay. And I guess that is a little different than what
25 I'm asking.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
90
1 What I'm asking is: Did you do any assessment of the
2 likelihood that a future breach would occur? Not the impact
3 from that breach.
4 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, I don't understand the
5 question, the likelihood it is related to impact. He is asking
6 either/or. And it just doesn't make sense.
7 MR. RUSSO: It was his testimony that when he
8 conducts a risk analysis he looks at the likelihood of the
9 threat occurring.
10 BY MR. RUSSO:
11 Q. So what I'm asking is: When you reviewed this, did you
12 conduct an assessment of the likelihood of a future breach
13 occurring similar to that in Coffee County?
14 A. Yes, I did. I determined that the likelihood had
15 increased as a result of this.
16 Q. So what was -- I guess I'm still trying to understand.
17 Was there a quantification that you applied to it? Did
18 you quantify that? What was the -- what was the starting
19 point?
20 That is really what I'm trying to understand is, what was
21 your methodology behind walking -- behind coming up with these
22 opinions.
23 A. Well, as Dr. Halderman testified, we don't -- we don't
24 typically put a number on it, a percentage that you are now
25 five percent more, you know, risk -- your risks have risen by
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
91
1 five percent.
2 In the same way if your house -- if you left the back door
3 unlocked, how much have you increased the percentage of being
4 robbed? You don't. It doesn't work that way.
5 So instead you can say, well, clearly you left your back
6 door unlocked when you went on vacation, you have increased the
7 risks.
8 So I think that's more useful than trying to put some kind
9 of a numeric score on it.
10 Q. So do you have a -- well, did you look at what the risk
11 level was prior to the Coffee County incident?
12 A. The risk level, as I understood it, prior to the Coffee
13 County incident, was that Georgia's election software was not
14 being distributed to a dozen or more individuals on the
15 internet. So that was my understanding.
16 After my evaluation here, I determined that that is the
17 case, and I think that the risk level increased significantly.
18 Q. Okay. So you did not have a baseline risk level? That is
19 what I'm trying to understand.
20 A. I just described the baseline risk level.
21 Q. Well, you said it increased. I guess what I'm trying to
22 understand is: Did you -- we're looking at the system, where
23 was it prior to and where is it today?
24 THE COURT: Well, as I understand it, what you're
25 answering is, relative to the -- linking the software available
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
92
1 to others, it went from -- you didn't know whether it had been
2 distributed before necessarily, but you could see affirmatively
3 now it had been distributed in a way that made it more --
4 significantly more accessible. Is that your testimony? Am
5 I --
6 THE WITNESS: That is my testimony.
7 THE COURT: -- understanding it?
8 BY MR. RUSSO:
9 Q. And --
10 THE COURT: And when you've mentioned the 12, that
11 doesn't include, obviously, the Cyber Ninja individuals who
12 were making it accessible to more people, or does it?
13 THE WITNESS: I can offer a longer answer on that.
14 So what I observed in the evidence is that
15 approximately 12 people received it. I've since heard of other
16 people who have received it. But I don't -- I'm not aware of
17 other evidence that it has been spread to other people.
18 THE COURT: All right. That wasn't my question.
19 THE WITNESS: I'm sorry.
20 THE COURT: Did your 12 include Doug Logan and his
21 partner or did the 12 --
22 THE WITNESS: Yes, it did. They are in that list,
23 yes. Yes.
24 THE COURT: All right.
25 THE WITNESS: And my declaration enumerates the full
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
93
1 list of people in the summary. It is right there, I think, on
2 Page 4.
3 THE COURT: Okay. Thank you.
4 THE WITNESS: 4 or 5.
5 BY MR. RUSSO:
6 Q. And let's see. Looking at Page, I guess, 9 --
7 Subsection 9(h).
8 A. I'm sorry, 9(h)?
9 Q. 9(h).
10 A. Give me one moment.
11 Q. So it is your opinion that the access controls to protect
12 election hardware and software were insufficient; is that
13 right?
14 A. Yes. I said that they were obviously insufficient.
15 This -- Coffee County shows that.
16 Q. And in terms of physical security, did you -- did you
17 consider -- did you consider anything around physical security?
18 A. Yes. That's mentioned in my declaration as well.
19 Q. And you mentioned maybe that having two locks with -- or
20 multiple keys; is that right?
21 A. To protect against insider threats. A common thing is to
22 require two people to open a door that is meant to be kept
23 secure.
24 Q. And you said you reviewed James Barnes' testimony;
25 correct? You attended his deposition?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
94
1 A. Both. I reviewed his testimony and attended his
2 deposition.
3 Q. And did you understand his testimony to be that when he
4 came in as election superintendent there was such a two-key
5 system with multiple locks?
6 A. I don't recall that testimony.
7 Q. Now, you're not giving an opinion on whether the laws in
8 Georgia regarding physical security of voting equipment are
9 sufficient; correct?
10 A. No. I haven't done that analysis for what the law --
11 whether the law is -- has the right scope.
12 Q. And you agree, though, that insider threats are a common
13 security challenge; right?
14 A. Yes.
15 Q. And you agree that insiders facilitated the events in
16 Coffee County; is that right?
17 A. Yes.
18 Q. And it is true that election insiders can facilitate
19 unauthorized access to all kinds of equipment that they have,
20 right, to whatever equipment --
21 A. I'm sorry. Can you repeat that question?
22 Q. It is true that election insiders can facilitate
23 unauthorized access to the election equipment?
24 A. Is that different than the question I just answered?
25 Q. I think it was a little bit different.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
95
1 The -- but I'll move on.
2 So the insiders themselves can conduct the actions to
3 allow this unauthorized access to occur; correct?
4 A. Yes.
5 Is that different -- it sounds like the same question
6 again.
7 Q. It is a little bit different because one is where the
8 insiders are actually doing it. The other is where they are
9 allowing third parties to do it.
10 A. Yes.
11 Q. So regardless of whether -- well, strike that.
12 And you agree that the county election officials in Coffee
13 County were responsible for their equipment?
14 MR. BROWN: Object. That calls for a legal
15 conclusion, Your Honor.
16 BY MR. RUSSO:
17 Q. Well, you would agree that -- did you hear any testimony
18 in all of the depositions or did you see any evidence of the
19 Secretary of State's office authorizing the access in Coffee
20 County?
21 A. No. In my declaration, I talk about the authorization and
22 walk through, and the conclusion is that I conclude there was
23 no authorized access. And that includes the Secretary of
24 State.
25 Q. And you concluded also that the -- there is an illusion of
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
96
1 authorization; is that right?
2 A. I don't know if I would say it quite that way. But I do
3 use that phrase. I think that the presence of Misty Hampton
4 and Eric Chaney as, you know, legitimate employees or personnel
5 in the election office, I think based on the different
6 depositions and the reasons that people cited why they believed
7 they had authorization -- I believe that created an illusion
8 that there was authorization.
9 Q. And if you flip with me to Paragraph 141 -- 147.
10 A. I'm sorry?
11 Q. 147.
12 A. What page is this?
13 Q. Page 51. Well, the ECF is 52 of 80, if you're looking at
14 the top of the page.
15 A. And what number?
16 Q. 47 [sic].
17 So you mentioned Eric Chaney and Misty Hampton and several
18 attorneys.
19 Who were the others that you mentioned in Subpart 4 in the
20 paragraph?
21 THE COURT: So it is 147, not 47, that you're
22 referencing?
23 MR. RUSSO: 147. Yes, ma'am.
24 THE WITNESS: You're interested in only 147,
25 Subpart 4?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
97
1 BY MR. RUSSO:
2 Q. Well, I mean, I was interested in the whole thing, but I
3 think you answered some of it already that -- I believe you
4 testified that legitimate authorization, there was -- well,
5 there was none. And that there was an illusion of
6 authorization; correct?
7 And you stated who gave this illusion of authorization.
8 And then you named Mr. Chaney and Ms. Hampton. And then are
9 these -- these are their attorneys I think -- are these their
10 attorneys you are referencing?
11 A. I don't know what their relationship is. These are
12 attorneys who were involved and were in the evidence.
13 Q. Were in the what? I'm sorry.
14 A. In the evidence that I reviewed --
15 Q. Okay. And that was --
16 A. -- those were attorneys that were --
17 Q. -- depositions -- I'm sorry, go ahead. I didn't mean to
18 cut you off.
19 That was in depositions that you reviewed?
20 A. In -- no. Emails, text messages, documents, and the
21 depositions. All.
22 Q. So then in Paragraph 4, you mentioned other willing
23 credulous participants.
24 Who are you -- do you recall who you are referring to
25 there?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
98
1 A. I'm referring to pretty much all of the participants in
2 those events who are not listed there already.
3 So SullivanStrickler would be an example of someone who
4 was a willing and credulous participant. They didn't ask
5 questions.
6 Q. Would it be your opinion that anybody who coordinated
7 with, say, Mr. Chaney would fall into that group?
8 A. I'm sorry. I'm not sure of your question. Anybody who
9 coordinated with Mr. Chaney for what purpose?
10 Q. For purposes of Coffee County, the Coffee County review.
11 A. I'm sorry. I'm still not understanding -- anyone who --
12 Q. I'm trying to -- I guess what I'm trying to really do is
13 get an idea of who all these other credulous participants and
14 what the full scope of this lack of authorization ultimately --
15 A. I can only speak to the words that I wrote. And when I
16 wrote them, I was intending to refer to the many other
17 individuals that I had named that were involved in those three
18 breaches in Coffee County and that they were the willing and
19 credulous participants.
20 I don't know about hypotheticals for who might else be
21 given that label. I'm not trying to go beyond the bounds of
22 the evidence.
23 Q. Okay. Looking at Paragraph 157 now, these are
24 implications for Coffee County's hardware.
25 Do you see that?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
99
1 A. 157 you said?
2 Q. Yes.
3 THE COURT: I'm just going to remark. I think as to
4 Paragraph 147 it is very clear what it states. I think it is
5 more complex than what has been described by the testimony
6 being elicited, and I don't think it is helpful.
7 So I'm going to ask the witness to just -- I mean,
8 I'm reading it, and I understand something more complex from it
9 myself, I will just state.
10 If either -- either attorney wishes to elicit more,
11 that is fine. But I am looking at the actual words of it, and
12 it is something that is different than what is being elicited
13 and what is being -- and it concerns me that -- because I
14 understand what it says. And if it is something different --
15 And what it says right now, just for the record, is
16 for this portion of my analysis I concluded legitimate
17 authorization was not given for the irregular access to Coffee
18 County's election office in 2021. The evidence indicates an
19 illusion of authorization was created, one, by Eric Chaney
20 leveraging his membership on the board of elections; two, by
21 Misty Hampton's willingness to collaborate; and, three, by
22 several attorneys including Powell, Bundren, and Lambert
23 lending their integrity as officers of the court and by
24 involving many other willing and credulous participants.
25 I think that speaks for itself.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT

1 BY MR. RUSSO:
2 Q. Moving on to the implication section of your declaration,
3 Mr. Skoglund, directing you to Paragraph 157.
4 Do you know whether any manipulation or damage occurred to
5 the systems in Coffee County during the access in January 2021?
6 A. No, I have not examined the equipment directly.
7 Q. And you understand, of course, that the equipment was
8 replaced; correct?
9 THE COURT: Which equipment?
10 MR. RUSSO: The equipment in Coffee County.
11 THE COURT: Right. But all the equipment in Coffee
12 County?
13 MR. RUSSO: All.
14 THE COURT: Initially? I mean, what is -- let's be
15 very precise here since you-all have thought a lot about this
16 issue.
17 BY MR. RUSSO:
18 Q. You understand that -- well, you didn't review it to begin
19 with is what you said; correct?
20 A. I did not review the Coffee County's hardware and software
21 directly, correct.
22 Q. You would with agree me that failing to find a problem
23 might mean there is no problem; correct?
24 A. Yes. I go on -- if you read the next two sentences of
25 157, I state that. It is very difficult to know whether or not
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
101
1 this equipment has been negatively impacted and to prove a
2 negative to say that it is not.
3 We saw that in a number of other states when their
4 election equipment was breached, those machines were quickly
5 pulled from service so that there was no opportunity and there
6 was no thought of trying to remediate those computers and to
7 rehabilitate them in some way. Instead, they were simply
8 pulled from service.
9 Q. And are those the ones in Northampton you're referring to?
10 A. No, I'm not. Arizona is another example where the
11 machines were not put back into service after they were
12 provided to third parties.
13 Q. Just to clarify one point from earlier. Regarding the
14 Northampton matter that you testified about, those machines --
15 what type of machines were those?
16 A. Those are ES&S ExpressVote XLs.
17 Q. Now, you testified earlier about hash verifications on --
18 and that they can determine whether -- well, tell us -- remind
19 me about the hash verification.
20 They can determine if it is the same software. Is that
21 what you said?
22 A. I'm sorry. What was the question? I didn't get a
23 question out of that.
24 Q. Well, what I'm getting at is: If the State performed hash
25 verifications on the equipment, would you agree that those hash
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
102
1 verifications would provide a level of security around
2 confirming that the equipment has been unchanged?
3 A. Are you referring to the Coffee County equipment or to
4 something different than that?
5 Q. The equipment -- just the equipment generally, BMDs in
6 Georgia.
7 A. So this is a hypothetical ballot-marking device we're
8 talking about?
9 Q. That's fine.
10 A. So if you took a hypothetical ballot-marking device and
11 you -- you used the built-in Dominion hash validation software
12 to look at a small set of files that are on that computer and
13 tell you what the hash is, then I do not think that that offers
14 you very much security protection.
15 Q. And why is that?
16 A. Because, one, it is only looking at a small set of files.
17 It cannot look at the entire hard drive. For one thing it
18 would take a very long time. But also the hard drive is
19 constantly changing. It is constantly, you know, making edits
20 to the log file, for example. So even a simple edit to a log
21 file will change the hash to be something completely different.
22 But it also would not be effective because you're asking
23 the system to self-attest. As I have said before, it is like
24 asking someone, are you a liar?
25 Q. So you're saying that would provide zero security benefits
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
103
1 to the State? Is that -- that is your opinion?
2 A. I don't know that I would quantify it as zero. I don't
3 think that it is effective and would not recommend it as any
4 kind of -- it would not give me any assurance if you came to me
5 with that as a fact.
6 Q. What is your understanding of whether the EAC performed --
7 recommends hash verifications to be performed by the states?
8 A. What is my opinion?
9 Q. What is your understanding?
10 So I direct you to Paragraph 160 -- 162. You mentioned
11 the Election Assistance Commission's best practices for
12 election technology.
13 Do you know if the Election Assistance Commission --
14 A. Wait. I'm not quite caught up. You said 162?
15 Q. Yes. And it is at the bottom of 162 on that page and goes
16 over to the next page.
17 A. Okay.
18 Q. The EAC you said recommends single use memory devices, and
19 you cite to the EAC's best practices for election technology.
20 Do you see that?
21 A. Yes, I do.
22 Q. Do you have any understanding of whether the EAC
23 recommends hash verification as a best practice?
24 A. I don't recall whether it does.
25 Q. Would you disagree with the EAC's belief that it is a best
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
104
1 practice if they did recommend it?
2 A. I don't -- I don't know that I would disagree that it is a
3 good practice. But I don't think that it is an effective one,
4 in my opinion. I don't know that I would -- I don't know
5 that -- I have not read -- I don't have the EAC report in front
6 of me, so I can't say what their opinion is to contrast it with
7 mine.
8 Q. Now, in Paragraph 164 you mention Cybersecurity and
9 Infrastructure Security Agency, CISA, and the incident
10 eradication.
11 Do you agree with me that knowledge of an incident is a
12 necessary precursor before election officials can take
13 mitigation efforts?
14 Or do you have to know something happened before you can
15 mitigate it?
16 A. Yeah. I think you may be using mitigation a different way
17 than I would. I think that it is true that you need an
18 indication that there may have been some kind of a security
19 event that requires further investigation.
20 And I see evidence that the Cyber Ninjas card coming right
21 after Dominion's warning and the missing password, I think all
22 of the events that happened in 2020 in Coffee County -- I
23 think, you know, the sum total of those is that further
24 investigation was definitely required. This might have been
25 something that needed incident response.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
105
1 Q. And we talked about insiders earlier. You don't think
2 that insiders would -- would disclose that they had done
3 something wrong so that mitigation efforts could occur;
4 correct?
5 A. I'm sorry?
6 Q. So the insider --
7 A. Do I think Misty Hampton would have told the Secretary of
8 State? Is that --
9 Q. Sure.
10 A. I mean, no, I don't -- I don't think that they will tell
11 on themselves. But, you know, once she told the Washington
12 Post that, yes, she had let in insiders, I think that was the
13 point at which it was super clear that something had happened.
14 Q. And are you aware of the phone call between Ms. Marks and
15 Mr. Hall in this case?
16 A. Yes, I am.
17 Q. When did you become aware of that?
18 A. It was either -- the years all kind of run together. It
19 was either in January or February of 2022.
20 Q. And what was your understanding of when that call was
21 recorded?
22 A. I do not have an understanding of when it was recorded,
23 not as I sit here.
24 Q. Okay. Is it -- is it your opinion that because of what
25 happened in Coffee County that all of the equipment in Georgia
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
106
1 needs to be replaced statewide?
2 A. There's several answers to that. The first is that all of
3 the equipment should have been immediately replaced in Coffee
4 County, and it is troubling to me that it was not and that it
5 was used in live elections before it was removed.
6 I have concerns about the removal of media that is used
7 and reused against best practices. And I'm concerned that
8 removable media is used to ferry information from the air
9 gapped election management systems to internet connected
10 systems and back again.
11 So it is difficult, without doing further analysis, to
12 know whether the circumstances in Coffee County were contained
13 or were not. And one of the first things, as I said in the
14 earlier -- or right here, actually, in the incident
15 eradication, is the first step is to remove the compromised
16 machines, block known malicious infrastructure, reset account
17 credentials, and implement additional controls.
18 And I strongly agree with that. That is what should have
19 been done to lower the risk that this incident would spread
20 beyond Coffee County.
21 Q. And you mentioned an election that the equipment was
22 subsequently used in.
23 Do you recall which election that was?
24 A. Well, it would have been all elections between January 7,
25 2021, and when the equipment was removed, which I seem to
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
107
1 recall was September of 2022. And I don't know whether
2 everything was removed at that time.
3 I know the majority of equipment was replaced. But the
4 ICC and the EMS from January 8th of 2021, was allowed to remain
5 and to sort of bridge service with the other equipment.
6 Q. And when you say bridge service, you're not aware of any
7 malfunctions or any bugs that due to that bridge service went
8 from what was there previously and carried over to this new
9 equipment; correct?
10 A. You're asking if I know how the equipment performed after
11 September of 2022?
12 Q. Well, I'm asking if you -- well, let's just do it this
13 way.
14 Are you aware of any malfunctioning equipment in Coffee
15 County after the EMS was replaced?
16 A. No. I have had no visibility into any of the hardware or
17 software directly or indirectly since the forensic images were
18 provided.
19 Q. You're not aware of any complaints by voters saying their
20 votes were --
21 THE COURT: He just said he had no visibility
22 afterwards one way or the other. So let's move on.
23 Thank you.
24 BY MR. RUSSO:
25 Q. You talk about -- in Paragraph 174 you mention it is
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
108
1 highly likely -- highly likely -- a highly likely consequence,
2 excuse me, of the distribution of the software is a
3 disinformation campaign.
4 What do you mean by a disinformation campaign?
5 THE COURT: I'm sorry. What paragraph are you
6 talking about?
7 MR. RUSSO: 174.
8 THE COURT: Okay.
9 THE WITNESS: Could you ask your question again.
10 BY MR. RUSSO:
11 Q. Sure.
12 Do you believe that disinformation campaigns have been
13 realized as a result of the Coffee County incident?
14 A. Yes, I do.
15 Q. And what disinformation campaigns have been realized --
16 that you think have been realized at least?
17 A. I have observed that the incident in Coffee County is used
18 for other purposes to suggest that it is evidence of
19 manipulated votes, vote totals, secret algorithms, a wide
20 variety of claims.
21 Q. So it is -- disinformation is information that is being
22 used to manipulate. I'm trying to understand what you mean by
23 disinformation.
24 To manipulate someone else? Manipulate voters, in this
25 case?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
109
1 A. Yes. That is a rough definition of disinformation.
2 Q. So there is some intent on -- by the speaker to affect
3 some change by the listeners; is that correct?
4 A. Yes. Yes.
5 Q. And do you believe that attempting to manipulate voters to
6 not use voting machines would be disinformation?
7 MR. BROWN: I'm sorry. I just didn't hear you.
8 BY MR. RUSSO:
9 Q. I said: Do you believe that attempting to manipulate
10 voters so they do not use voting machines -- would that be
11 disinformation in your mind?
12 MR. BROWN: I object, Your Honor.
13 THE WITNESS: That is a big hypothetical. I would
14 need much more specifics.
15 BY MR. BROWN:
16 Q. I think isn't it -- it is about the specific statement
17 being made if a speaker says something about voting machines?
18 There have been a lot of statements about voting machines in
19 this -- since 2020.
20 You agree with me on that?
21 THE COURT: I'm going to say that you are going off
22 base at this point. That is not relevant. I think what his --
23 what you asked about in 17 -- about his comments in 174 was his
24 discussion of some of the consequences when you end up
25 having -- of the distribution of election software, what some
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
110
1 of the adverse consequences and public understanding and
2 misrepresentations. I think that is -- you can't go further
3 than that. And you can -- so -- or else it is not really going
4 to be relevant to this here.
5 MR. RUSSO: Okay.
6 THE COURT: But if there's something in particular --
7 a paragraph here that you want to discuss, that is something
8 else. But I think you were using your --
9 MR. RUSSO: I was just exploring what his -- if this
10 was his opinion and -- he was given it as to disinformation. I
11 was just trying to understand the scope of that and --
12 THE COURT: Well, he has given you lots of examples.
13 So I think then to start going off to discussing is it
14 disinformation to communicate with fellow citizens about the
15 system as a whole -- I don't know that that is really dealing
16 with disinformation. It is just dealing with somebody's
17 assessment of it. But -- I don't know.
18 I mean, I just don't think it is going to be
19 helpful -- let me just put it that way -- helpful to the Court
20 in deciding the merits of this case.
21 If there is something in particular as to which he
22 describes here in a particular paragraph, I'm happy to have you
23 examine him about that, at least in a limited way. Because not
24 everything that is in his affidavit is necessarily relevant to
25 my decision either. But as with everything that all of you
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
111
1 write at some point, it won't be -- something won't be
2 relevant.
3 MR. RUSSO: I hope so.
4 THE COURT: I know. It would be terrible to be told
5 that something you said was not relevant.
6 MR. RUSSO: All right.
7 BY MR. RUSSO:
8 Q. Moving on to your next section here of your report,
9 Mr. Skoglund, Paragraph 196.
10 A. Can you tell me what page? That would be faster.
11 Q. 72 of 80 on the ECF pages.
12 A. 196?
13 Q. Yes.
14 A. Okay. I'm there.
15 Q. Okay. So you agree that -- you state here that an
16 adversary must gain access to election hardware with enough
17 opportunity to put weaponized code into action.
18 You still believe that; correct?
19 A. Yes, I do.
20 Q. And did you conduct any assessment of the scope of that
21 opportunity that is required, as it pertains to Georgia?
22 A. I think we may be skipping a few steps there.
23 As it says, after developing techniques or weaponized
24 code. That is step one. Then you have to put that into use,
25 right, in some way. And it depends greatly what you have
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
112
1 developed.
2 If your hack is a BIC pen, then you have got to figure out
3 how to use that BIC pen in the polling place and have that
4 opportunity.
5 If your attack is malware and it is a malware that is on a
6 poll worker card, then once you have the opportunity to insert
7 a poll worker card, you have the necessary access.
8 If the attack requires you to, you know, be in front of an
9 election management system, well, then you have to be able to
10 get in front of that election management system.
11 I mean, it really depends on the scope of what you are
12 trying to accomplish. But yes, you must develop it and then
13 effectuate it in the real world.
14 Q. And in Georgia with 159 counties, is it your opinion you
15 would have to effectuate that opportunity in all 159 counties?
16 A. No, I do not think that is a prerequisite for --
17 Q. I apologize. Let me clarify.
18 For -- to affect the statewide -- to put that malware into
19 effect statewide?
20 A. I mean, you are describing a very narrow thing. You're
21 describing can I -- I think you are describing can I get
22 malware installed on every single component of the election
23 system in every single county. And that is contrary to what I
24 just testified to, which is that an attack, an exploit, can be
25 very targeted.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
113
1 And it is not necessary to necessarily go there, depending
2 on what you have in mind. If your goal is to sow chaos, well,
3 then you really only need to go to one county and create chaos
4 that then causes the rest of the election results to be called
5 into question.
6 Q. Okay. Moving on to -- you provide six mitigations, I
7 believe, at the end of your report, Paragraph 204.
8 Now, if Georgia used an all hand-marked paper ballot
9 system, would these risk mitigations, minus the reference to
10 hand-marked paper ballots in Paragraph 204, be the same?
11 A. I'm sorry. Could you repeat the question.
12 Q. If Georgia had an all hand-marked paper ballot system,
13 would these risk mitigations, minus the reference to
14 hand-marked paper ballots in your risk mitigations, so the
15 remaining five -- would those be the same? Would they still
16 exist?
17 A. Yes. I believe those are the risk mitigations recommended
18 by cybersecurity experts and they are -- except for the one you
19 mentioned about hand-marked paper ballots, they are consistent.
20 Q. Mr. Skoglund, I've got just a few more questions and I'll
21 try to wrap it up quickly here.
22 You're not offering an opinion on whether the Coffee
23 County outside access has burdened any one -- any voter in that
24 county; correct?
25 A. I don't know what you mean by the word "burden." I think
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
114
1 that is a legal term, and I don't quite understand it. So ...
2 Q. Preventing anyone from voting. You're not offering an
3 opinion --
4 MR. BROWN: I didn't hear or understand Mr. Russo's
5 last comment. I'm sorry.
6 MR. RUSSO: Sure. I'll repeat that.
7 BY MR. RUSSO:
8 Q. You're not offering an opinion that the incident in Coffee
9 County has prevented anyone from voting; correct?
10 A. I think I testified to that earlier that I haven't seen
11 any evidence or information beyond what was given to me from
12 those forensic images. That really is the limit of my Coffee
13 County knowledge.
14 Q. And you're not offering an opinion that voting systems
15 should not use technology at all; correct?
16 A. I am not offering that opinion.
17 Q. You believe there should be some technology that is used
18 in voting systems?
19 A. Do I believe? I'm not sure --
20 Q. Is it your opinion that technology -- that -- well, I
21 mean -- yeah, I guess that is what I'm asking. You're not
22 offering any opinion that we shouldn't use technology in voting
23 systems; correct?
24 A. Maybe I can get to your answer by stating it in my own
25 words.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
115
1 Q. Sure.
2 A. I believe that technology can be extremely useful in some
3 cases. And the ballot-marking devices, when equipped with the
4 ATI accessibility kit, are a terrific example of that. And it
5 is why Congress mandated the Help America Vote Act that all
6 polling places must have a ballot-marking device with full
7 accessibility is because the technology allows voters who might
8 have not been able to vote to be able to use technology to
9 vote. And I think that is a terrific and appropriate use of
10 technology.
11 I think that the tabulators that are used to count votes
12 are a good piece of technology that count votes accurately and
13 efficiently most of the time. And I think that as long as the
14 technology has non-technological bookends on either side of
15 that we can trust it. Because we can always check the
16 technology.
17 So if you have a voter marking a ballot by hand, that is
18 very low tech. There is no technology to get in the way of
19 that. And then we can hand count those ballots, machine count
20 those ballots. It doesn't matter. Because on the other side
21 we have risk-limiting audits that we can use to go back to that
22 original evidence that we know technology didn't interfere
23 with. We can go back to those and know that the tabulation is
24 correct or questionable and something we need to investigate.
25 Q. And what is the right balance? Do you have an opinion on
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
116
1 where the right balance is between how much technology is okay
2 and how much isn't?
3 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, I object. He just answered
4 the question and -- the same question, which was where is
5 technology appropriate and when it isn't.
6 THE COURT: I think -- there is a sufficient answer.
7 So let's move on.
8 MR. RUSSO: Let me check with co-counsel real quick.
9 THE COURT: Sure.
10 (There was a brief pause in the proceedings.)
11 MR. RUSSO: Thank you, Mr. Skoglund.
12 THE WITNESS: Thank you.
13 THE COURT: Mr. Brown, do you have many questions or
14 just a few?
15 Do you have many questions or just a few?
16 MR. BROWN: One.
17 THE COURT: One.
18 REDIRECT EXAMINATION
19 BY MR. BROWN:
20 Q. One question, Mr. Skoglund, with a brief introduction.
21 You testified about the need to replace the machines in
22 Coffee County as soon as possible after the incident.
23 Are you with me?
24 A. Yes.
25 Q. Given that the equipment software is in the wild, would
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
117
1 replacing the equipment itself be sufficient?
2 A. No. They address two different risks. The one is the
3 risk that there is contamination in the Coffee County hardware
4 and software.
5 The second is a separate risk, which is that now all of
6 that software and data that is supposed to be kept, you know,
7 safe and secure and only given to authorized individuals is now
8 in uncontrolled distribution.
9 So it is two separate matters entirely.
10 MR. BROWN: Thank you.
11 MR. RUSSO: No further questions.
12 THE COURT: I have one question.
13 EXAMINATION
14 BY THE COURT:
15 Q. You were asked questions about what you wrote in
16 Paragraph 162 as to your statement that reuse of removable
17 media is a bad security practice because it provides a
18 convenient vehicle for malware to move between devices in both
19 directions from EMS to other devices and from devices back to
20 EMS. It is analogous to intervenous drug users sharing
21 needles.
22 And then you reference what you were asked about the U.S.
23 Election Assistance Commission recommends using single use
24 memory devices to transfer election results from the voting
25 system tabulator to the EMS and write-once or read-only
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
118
1 removable media should be used where possible.
2 And I guess I -- I went back to look at the -- at the
3 EAC's recommendation. I think it deals exactly with that
4 issue.
5 It says if a USB -- for instance, if a USB drive or other
6 piece of writable removable media is inserted into a device
7 that is connected to the internet, another network or is
8 outside of the voting system, it should not be used -- reused
9 without ensuring that it is free of malware.
10 And then it gives similar ones about not using thumb
11 drives or external drives more than one time. Never reusing
12 them.
13 How did that pertain to what the EAC was saying to what
14 you were looking at, if it pertained at all?
15 A. So from the Coffee County evidence, it was very clear that
16 they were reusing media. And one of the best examples of that
17 was that there were removable compact flash cards that had a
18 label on the outside for one election but inside contained data
19 for a subsequent election. So they clearly had been reused.
20 And those are the cards that are for the precinct
21 scanners. So they go from the election management system out
22 to one of the precinct scanners. At the end of the election,
23 they come back. And then, you know, that process continues
24 from election to election.
25 Another example was that there are -- there were USB
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
119
1 drives that were collected by SullivanStrickler that appeared
2 to have been reused from multiple elections that contained some
3 old election data on them.
4 And then most concerning I think to me is that those --
5 there is removable media that is used to ferry information from
6 the air-gapped system to an internet-connected system. And
7 people just say, oh, our system is air gapped. But air gapped
8 is not just not connecting it to the internet. It is also
9 having a set of policies and procedures in place to ensure that
10 you are keeping it quarantined, like you would a COVID patient.
11 Right. You really want to make sure that you're not
12 transmitting anything in and out the door.
13 So you can't just, you know, put someone in a room and
14 say, okay, you can come and go as you please. We are going to
15 call this quarantine. You have to have policies and procedures
16 as well. So that was of great concern to me.
17 Q. In looking at the Coffee County?
18 A. In looking at the Coffee County, yes.
19 Q. And, I guess, is that from looking at the videos or
20 looking at the data itself or looking at what in particular?
21 A. Looking at the data on the hard drives. Looking at the
22 photographs that SullivanStrickler took, that is how I was able
23 to see the labels that were on there and see that they were
24 from an older election.
25 The GBI image of the desktop computer, that was an
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
120
1 internet computer that they were using to send email, but it
2 was also being used to collect -- to send election night
3 results that came from the election management system.
4 So from those, I was able to see this.
5 THE COURT: Any other questions in light of mine?
6 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, not just in light of your
7 questions, but I would like to move to admit Mr. Skoglund's
8 declaration, Number 471. That is Curling Plaintiffs'
9 Exhibit 471.
10 MR. RUSSO: We don't have any objection to it, except
11 to the extent that it has statements in there that we don't
12 believe he is qualified to testify to.
13 THE COURT: All right. Thank you.
14 Well, it is admitted.
15 MR. BROWN: Thank you, Your Honor.
16 THE COURT: May this witness be excused?
17 MR. BROWN: Yes, Your Honor.
18 THE COURT: All right. Please don't discuss your
19 testimony with anyone else. We never know who might be
20 recalled.
21 So thank you very much. I know you have come a good
22 number of times, and we've offered you as lousy weather as you
23 have up in Pennsylvania.
24 THE WITNESS: Thank you, Ms. Welch.
25 THE COURT: I think you look different than you do on

2 All right. We're going to take a lunch break. It is
3 1:05, basically. We'll aim to see each other at -- 45 minutes
4 roughly from now.
5 Anyway, I'll see you at five of.
6 COURTROOM SECURITY OFFICER: All rise.
7 THE COURT: If there are exhibits that you only gave
8 to me but didn't give to -- to Mr. Martin, let me know and I'll
9 just give him my copies. But -- anyway, I'm just concerned
10 that he probably doesn't have a complete set of the copies.
11 (A lunch break was taken.)
12 THE COURT: Have a seat.
13 MR. TYSON: Your Honor, I have two additional
14 administrative quick matters, if I could.
15 THE COURT: Yes.
16 MR. TYSON: One is, I spoke with Mr. Oles. He would
17 like to have Dr. Johnston here. We have requested she arrive
18 this afternoon and wanted to make the Court aware of that.
19 THE COURT: All right.
20 MR. TYSON: And then as well, wanted to make sure
21 that at some point today we're able to address the email issues
22 from yesterday as well.

17 Q. And do you see that on your screen?
18 A. I do.
19 Q. And do you recognize that document?
20 A. First page of the CV. I don't know the date of that
21 particular one on the screen.
22 Q. Can you flip to the second page? Does that help,
23 Professor Stark?
24 A. Yes. It is a bit out of date, but it is one.
25 Q. And is this a document that you prepared?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
124
1 A. Yes, sir.
2 MR. McGUIRE: Your Honor, I would move 449 into
3 evidence.
4 MR. RUSSO: No objection.
5 THE COURT: It is admitted.
6 BY MR. MCGUIRE:
7 Q. Professor Stark, can you tell us about your educational
8 background?
9 A. I have an undergraduate degree in philosophy from
10 Princeton University. I have a Ph.D. in geophysics from the
11 University of California San Diego, and post doctorate training
12 from the University of California at Berkeley in between
13 various things, including a month of law school.
14 Q. A month of law school.
15 And your career in academia, could you tell us about that.
16 A. I'm sorry. I couldn't quite hear you.
17 Q. Could you also please tell us about your career in
18 academia.
19 A. In academia, I have spent my entire professorial career at
20 the University of California Berkeley. I was originally
21 appointed as an assistant professor in 1988, I believe. And I
22 have gone through the professorial ranks and now at the top
23 rank that the university offers.
24 Q. And your CV, you said, was a little out of date.
25 Are there any noteworthy matters since the date on this CV
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
125
1 of September 4, 2018, that you would like to put into the
2 record?
3 A. Well, relevant to this legal matter, I have about 28 more
4 peer-reviewed publications relating to trustworthy elections
5 and election audits. I have served -- I think when this
6 document was created I was on the board of advisers at the U.S.
7 Election Assistance Commission. I'm still on the board.
8 But since then, I have served on some subcommittees,
9 including the cybersecurity subcommittee and the VVSG
10 subcommittee.
11 I believe that at the time this document was prepared I
12 was on the board of directors of Verified Voting Foundation.
13 I'm no longer with them.
14 I am on the board of advisers of the Open Source Election
15 Technology Institute. I spent about a year on the board of
16 directors of the Election Integrity Foundation. I won an award
17 from the IEEE for cybersecurity practice for my work on
18 election integrity.
19 MR. McGUIRE: Yes, ma'am. Yes, Your Honor.
20 THE COURT: And I want this to all counsel. I would
21 really prefer to have an updated resumè.
22 Do you have an updated resumè?
23 THE WITNESS: Yes, Your Honor.
24 THE COURT: Would you mind arranging for its
25 provision to counsel to be -- and if --
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
126
1 THE WITNESS: Of course.
2 THE COURT: -- defense counsel wants to see anything
3 that they will have an opportunity to do so.
4 So if we -- if there is anyone in your office now who
5 could transmit one to -- it would be great so that they could
6 have it right away.
7 THE WITNESS: It is available online. I can tell you
8 what the URL is.
9 MR. McGUIRE: Your Honor, we'll have it marked, and I
10 can have it -- maybe I can have it marked even --
11 THE COURT: So it is already online?
12 THE WITNESS: Yes, Your Honor.
13 MR. McGUIRE: We can pull it down --
14 THE COURT: You can pull it down.
15 MR. McGUIRE: -- and we'll mark it.
16 THE COURT: Thank you very much. Sorry to interrupt
17 y'all. Then you can provide it to me too.
18 MR. McGUIRE: Thank you.
19 BY MR. MCGUIRE:
20 Q. The CV that we're looking at, Exhibit 449, Professor
21 Stark, it lists elections as one of the applications of your
22 research interests; is that right?
23 A. Yes, sir.
24 Q. And is election auditing a topic that falls within your
25 research interests of elections?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
127
1 A. Yes, it is.
2 Q. Now, in September 2020, you gave testimony in this case as
3 an expert in the fields of election auditing and election
4 security. I would like to focus just on election auditing for
5 present purposes.
6 What kinds of things fall within the field of election
7 auditing?
8 A. It is a broad range of things that include everything from
9 analyzing event logs in election technology to physical audits,
10 looking at whether seal protocols are being followed. Auditing
11 eligibility determinations, making sure that things like
12 signature verification has been done correctly.
13 The pieces that I personally have focused on are something
14 called compliance audits, which are involved in determining
15 whether there is affirmative evidence that the record of the
16 votes is complete and trustworthy, and risk-limiting audits,
17 which are a way of providing affirmative evidence that reported
18 election outcomes are correct or with high probability
19 correcting them if they're not correct. They require a
20 trustworthy paper trail. The trustworthiness is generally
21 established by the compliance audit.
22 Another sort of audit I have been involved in is a
23 forensic audit to examine the software running on voting
24 machines. I personally was not the one to do that, but it was
25 part of the audit that I conducted in New Hampshire in 2020 and
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
128
1 the root cause analysis audit to determine the cause of an
2 observed failure of voting equipment to count those accurately.
3 Q. Thank you.
4 And you mentioned the idea of evidence in connection with
5 elections.
6 Does that bear on the concept of evidence-based elections?
7 A. Yes. I introduced the idea of evidence-based elections in
8 the 2012 paper with computer scientist David Wagner, then wrote
9 another paper on the topic with Andrew Appel that appeared in,
10 I believe, 2020. The idea of evidence-based election is that
11 we shouldn't be satisfied with election results merely being
12 correct. We should also require with affirmative evidence that
13 the outcomes are, in fact, correct. Elections shouldn't really
14 require voters to trust blindly that things are happening
15 correctly; rather, we should be conducting elections in such a
16 way that they provide evidence that the outcomes are right.
17 Q. And were those two papers that you referenced, the 2012
18 Wagner paper and the 2020 Appel paper -- were those significant
19 papers in the field of election auditing?
20 A. The term has become used pretty widely. It has been
21 adopted by the Election Assistance Commission in some context,
22 at least. Though I'm not sure how to judge the significance.
23 I don't pay attention to things like citation counts, but they
24 seem to have had an impact.
25 Q. And I believe you also mentioned that you invented a
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
129
1 process called a risk-limiting audit; is that right?
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. Tell us what a risk-limiting audit is meant to do and how
4 it is meant to work.
5 A. So I preface my answer with the fact that I want to be
6 careful how I use terminology, especially terms of art because
7 there's a growing disagreement about what risk-limiting audit
8 means. So I would rather talk about properties that audits
9 have or that audits can have that are desirable, again, from
10 the perspective of providing affirmative evidence that the
11 reported outcomes are correct.
12 So the risk that a risk-limiting audit is designed to
13 limit is the risk that an incorrect election outcome will be
14 certified, will become final. So incorrect, it means that it
15 is not the outcome that an accurate count of the expressed
16 votes of the eligible voters would show. So it is about the
17 political outcome, not the exact tally.
18 That is a pretty bright line for materiality. If things
19 didn't happen well enough that the reported winner really one,
20 there has clearly been some kind of a failure.
21 So a risk-limiting audit is a procedure that guarantees
22 that the chance that you will fail to detect and correct wrong
23 outcomes is, at most, some percentage of the risk limit.
24 Typical risk limit might be five percent or ten percent.
25 That risk limit is computed on the assumption that the
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
130
1 outcome is wrong and is wrong in a way that is most difficult
2 for the audit to detect.
3 Q. And just for some clarity on our end, when you say a
4 five percent or ten percent risk limit, what does that actually
5 refer to?
6 A. That is the maximum chance that the audit won't detect and
7 correct a wrong outcome if the outcome is wrong.
8 Q. I think the court reporter wants you to speak a little
9 slower and a little more -- enunciate just a bit more.
10 I'm sorry. Continue.
11 A. I apologize.
12 Q. Your last sentence about risk-limiting audits, could you
13 repeat that.
14 A. Yes. So the risk limit of a risk-limiting audit is the
15 largest chance that the audit will fail to detect that an
16 outcome is wrong and correct that outcome regardless of why the
17 outcome is wrong.
18 Q. So when you detect an error in a risk-limiting audit, you
19 know that the reported outcome is not the correct outcome but
20 you don't know the tally; is that right?
21 A. So the risk -- a risk-limiting audit, in general, is not
22 checking whether the reported tally is accurate; it is only
23 checking whether the reported winner really won.
24 In order for an audit to limit the risk that an incorrect
25 reported outcome will become final, it needs to have a
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
131
1 trustworthy record of the expressed votes of the eligible
2 voters and it needs to have the legal power to correct the
3 outcome if it determines that the outcome is wrong.
4 Q. And have you studied the auditability of elections
5 conducted using ballot-marking devices?
6 A. Yes.
7 Q. Have you done any noteworthy studies about that that come
8 to mind?
9 A. I have several papers relating to ballot-marking devices
10 and the ability to conduct elections in a way that generates
11 evidence that the outcomes are correct if those elections are
12 conducted using ballot-marking devices.
13 One peer-reviewed paper on that was joint with Professors
14 Rich DeMillo and Andrew Appel. I have a paper on whether it is
15 possible to test ballot-marking devices adequately to determine
16 whether they changed enough votes to alter an election outcome.
17 It is joint with a Stanford Ph.D. student in statistics. Came
18 out couple of years ago.
19 I have letters that I have written to various government
20 groups, I believe, including at least one in Georgia on why
21 conducting elections using -- conducting elections where a
22 substantial number of votes are cast using ballot-marking
23 devices undermines the ability to provide affirmative evidence
24 that outcomes are correct.
25 MR. McGUIRE: Your Honor, Professor Stark has
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
132
1 previously given testimony as an expert in election auditing,
2 and I would tender him as an expert in that field at this time.
3 MR. RUSSO: Your Honor, we don't object to him being
4 tendered and qualified as an expert in audits and election
5 audits.
6 THE COURT: He is accepted as such.
7 BY MR. MCGUIRE:
8 Q. Now, Professor Stark, this case is about, in many ways,
9 cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
10 How do audits relate to cybersecurity vulnerabilities when
11 it comes to elections?
12 A. So pretty much all electronic technology is vulnerable
13 and, as a result, one needs to be careful how it uses
14 technology in elections. Audits can make an end run around
15 some uses of technology in elections to ensure that even if
16 that technology misbehaved, the reported outcomes are still
17 correct. That can't be done for all technology that is
18 currently being used in elections, but it can be done for some
19 technology that is currently used in elections, and I believe
20 that that should inform which technology election jurisdictions
21 use and how they use it.
22 Q. Now, the plaintiffs in this case are challenging
23 specifically the use of ballot-marking devices as the standard
24 method of in-person voting.
25 Is that one of the technologies that you believe can be
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
133
1 safeguarded by audits?
2 A. Unfortunately, it isn't. The paper I mentioned -- I guess
3 more than one of the papers I mentioned before addresses
4 exactly that. Auditing can't do anything to determine whether
5 the votes that were expressed by the voter to the
6 ballot-marking device matched the votes that the ballot-marking
7 device printed in its output, so that becomes a piece of the
8 providence of the paper trail that is vulnerable to technology
9 failures, to cybersecurity problems, but that can't be
10 addressed adequately by any audit.
11 Q. And what makes a ballot as the record of what the voter
12 did trustworthy or untrustworthy, in your opinion?
13 A. So I'm going to interpret by ballot you mean that printed
14 piece of paper with some selections on it?
15 Q. Yes, that is what I mean.
16 A. So the vote record can be untrustworthy for a variety of
17 reasons. It can be born untrustworthy. That is, what is on
18 the paper may not accurately reflect what the voter expressed.
19 And ballot-marking devices suffer from that vulnerability. So
20 a ballot-marking device printout is in some sense born
21 untrustworthy.
22 But even the records that are born trustworthy. Like
23 hand-marked paper ballots which necessarily reflect the voter's
24 expressed preferences, don't necessarily remain trustworthy
25 throughout the canvass and the audit unless adequate physical
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
134
1 security, chain of custody, physical inventories, and other
2 things are conducted.
3 Q. Is an election -- is the outcome of an election that is
4 conducted with widespread use of ballot-marking devices capable
5 of being effectively audited at all, in your opinion?
6 A. There's no way to audit an election that is -- in which a
7 substantial number of votes are cast using ballot-marking
8 devices in such a way as to provide affirmative evidence that
9 the reported outcomes are correct. Audits can detect some
10 kinds of failures in some aspects of an election conducted that
11 way, but they can never provide affirmative evidence that the
12 reported winner is actually wrong.
13 Q. And to be clear, an audit checks outcomes, but it doesn't
14 check whether individual votes count; correct?
15 A. Risk-limiting audits check outcomes. Sometimes that
16 involves checking whether some individual ballots were
17 interpreted correctly by the voting equipment and aggregated
18 correctly to produce the winner, but they don't check any
19 particular voter's ballots. And, in general, when things go
20 well, they examine only a minute fraction of the ballots that
21 were cast in -- at least in a large election.
22 Q. So you said just a second ago that BMD ballots were born
23 untrustworthy.
24 Can you explain what it is about BMDs that makes the
25 ballots they produce inherently untrustworthy?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
135
1 A. Well, I think the Court has already heard testimony about
2 this from Kevin Skoglund and Alex Halderman and perhaps others.
3 But when you introduce technology between the voter and the
4 record of the vote, you kind of lose the guarantee that the
5 record of the vote accurately reflects what the voter did.
6 Q. And when you say what the voter did --
7 A. Did I answer your question?
8 Q. I think so.
9 When you say what the voter did, are you envisioning what
10 the voter did with their fingers on a touch screen? Is that
11 what you mean by what the voter did?
12 A. With a BMD, it is what the voter did in their interaction
13 with the touch screen voting machine, whether that is touching
14 locations on the touch screen or using a Sip and Puff interface
15 or something else.
16 What the voter did for a hand-marked paper ballot is make
17 marks ideally with an indelible pen on a piece of paper. That
18 mark is a direct reflection of what the voter did. Whereas,
19 what is printed in a BMD printout is a reflection of what the
20 machine did in response to what the voter did. And there's
21 just an evidence gap between those two.
22 I believe the Court has heard testimony that what the BMD
23 prints is not always what the voter did.
24 COURT REPORTER: I missed a word.
25
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
136
1 BY MR. MCGUIRE:
2 Q. So --
3 THE COURT: Why don't you say what you've got so we
4 can --
5 (There was a brief pause in the proceedings.)
6 MR. McGUIRE: One moment, Professor Stark.
7 THE COURT: If you would, slow down a little bit.
8 THE WITNESS: I'll try. I apologize.
9 THE COURT: I understand.
10 BY MR. MCGUIRE:
11 Q. So, Professor Stark, one of the things we've heard from
12 the other side in this case is that the content of BMD-printed
13 ballots can be trusted because it is checked by voters before
14 they cast that ballot.
15 Do you have an opinion on whether that step is effective?
16 A. I'm aware of four studies of the -- of whether voters do
17 check and how well they check when they check the BMD printout.
18 One of the studies was, I believe, commissioned by the Georgia
19 Secretary of State and conducted by two researchers from the
20 University of Georgia. It found that relatively few voters
21 looked at their ballots for long enough even -- this is my
22 addition -- even for long enough to count how many contests
23 were on the printout, much less to determine whether the
24 selections on the printout matched their intended selections.
25 That was a study of actual voters voting at the polls in the
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
137
1 state of Georgia.
2 There has been another study that involved observing
3 voters, I believe, in Tennessee, if I recall correctly, which
4 also found that voters did not look at all or did not look for
5 very long when they were looking at their printout before
6 casting it, and then there have been a couple of studies --
7 academic studies with simulated elections -- actual voters but
8 not in real elections -- that looked at voters' ability to
9 detect changes to their selections that were made by the
10 technology.
11 And again, the finding is that, by and large, relatively
12 few voters check and that those who do don't check perfectly.
13 In order to get accurate checks requires a substantial
14 intervention and tends to require that the voter bring in a
15 written slate of candidates that they intended to vote for and
16 check the BMD printout against their written intended
17 selections. And my understanding, informally, is that very few
18 voters do that.
19 Q. Does scholarship say anything about how much of a burden
20 on individual voters it is to have to verify the machine
21 printout?
22 A. I'm sorry.
23 Does who say?
24 MR. RUSSO: Objection, Your Honor, to the extent it
25 calls for a legal conclusion as to what a burden is.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
138
1 THE COURT: I don't think so. I mean, there is the
2 legal term, but there is also the actual human term of burden.
3 MR. RUSSO: That is why I was couching it as to the
4 extent it is.
5 BY MR. MCGUIRE:
6 Q. Professor Stark, let me reask my question.
7 Does the scholarship say anything about how much of a
8 burden -- and I use that in the colloquial sense -- how much of
9 a burden it is on voters to have to check BMD-printed ballots
10 for accuracy?
11 A. The scholarship suggests that it is a cognitively
12 non-trivial task that relatively few voters would be able to
13 recall all of their selections or even the name of every
14 contest that they voted in without some kind of written prompt.
15 Q. Can software improvements or upgrades increase the
16 effectiveness of audits in BMD heavy elections?
17 A. I'm not sure I understand the question.
18 You mean improvements in ballot-marking device software,
19 does that improve the trustworthiness?
20 Q. Let me ask it a different way.
21 You've testified that there are issues with the
22 trustworthiness of BMD ballots -- BMD-printed ballots.
23 Are there software improvements or upgrades that you're
24 aware of that could in any way mitigate that untrustworthiness?
25 A. No. There's always going to be a gap between what the
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
139
1 voter did and what the machine did -- evidence that what the
2 machine did is identical to what the voter selected. You can
3 certainly harden BMDs to make them more difficult to hack. You
4 can test them more extensively to try to detect programming
5 errors or malware.
6 But you are never going to get the same kind of guarantee
7 that you get with a hand-marked paper ballot where the vote
8 record is the voter's direct expression of their selections
9 rather than the expression through a hackable pen, as it were.
10 Q. Yes. And that raises a point I wanted to ask you about.
11 We have heard testimony from State officials that they
12 have called BMDs basically just a really big expensive pen.
13 Is that a good analogy, in your opinion?
14 A. If expensive pens can be hacked, then I guess so. But it
15 is not -- it has CPU and software in it and so --
16 Q. So you mentioned that hand-marked paper ballots are more
17 trustworthy -- or they are trustworthy.
18 Are they more trustworthy, or are they trustworthy? Which
19 one?
20 A. They are born trustworthy in the sense that the marks on
21 the ballot were put there by the voter themselves, and so they
22 really are a record of the voter's expressed preferences. They
23 don't necessarily -- they don't magically remain trustworthy.
24 You need to keep track of them. You need physical inventories.
25 You need seal protocols. You need chain of custody protocols.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
140
1 So they are not automatically trustworthy forever. But at
2 the moment in which they are created, they're unambiguously the
3 voter's expression of their preferences.
4 Q. And given the trustworthiness of hand-marked paper
5 ballots, what would you say about the effectiveness of audits
6 of the outcome of ballots conducted using hand-marked paper
7 ballots?
8 A. Again, if appropriate measures are taken to ensure that
9 votes are cast by eligible voters, if there's proper chain of
10 custody and that is verified, then -- to confirm that the paper
11 trail remains trustworthy at the time of the audit, then a
12 risk-limiting audit of that paper trail can provide affirmative
13 evidence that the reported winners actually won or can correct
14 the reported outcome by conducting a sufficiently accurate
15 tally of that trustworthy paper trail if the reported winners,
16 in fact, did not win.
17 Q. And does it complicate hand-marked paper ballot elections
18 that are tabulated by scanners to know that there may be issues
19 with the scanners?
20 A. That is exactly what risk-limiting audit protects against.
21 Using optical scan tabulation is an example of the use of
22 vulnerability technology in elections, but using it in a way
23 that you can make an end run around that technology to confirm
24 that whatever might have gone wrong didn't alter the reported
25 outcome, that the reported winners, in fact, did win.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
141
1 So that is an example of using statistical procedures,
2 shoe leather, et cetera, to make an end run around the
3 vulnerabilities in the technology so that those vulnerabilities
4 can't undermine the trustworthiness of the election.
5 Of course, you actually have to do the audit. You
6 actually have to keep the trustworthiness of the paper trail.
7 Q. Is there a distinction in your mind between the
8 auditability, let's say, of a hand-marked paper ballot election
9 conducted where the tabulation is done by scanners backed by
10 audits versus where the tabulation is done by hand counting the
11 paper ballots?
12 A. Regardless of whether -- I'm so sorry. There is someone
13 scraping my roof right now. When this was scheduled, I thought
14 that I was testifying on Thursday of last week, so I apologize.
15 Regardless of how you conduct the initial tabulation,
16 whether that's by hand or using an optical scanner, you should
17 check that it was done sufficiently accurate to determine who
18 really won.
19 A better way to say that is you should check whether the
20 tabulation -- whether an accurate tabulation would find the
21 same winners. What a risk-limiting audit does is that. It
22 checks whether an accurate tabulation would find the same
23 winners, but it doesn't check whether the tabulation itself was
24 accurate.
25 And I think I only answered part of your question. I
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
142
1 apologize.
2 Q. So is it -- is there a -- is there scholarship on whether
3 tabulations tend to be more accurate if they are counted by
4 scanners versus counted by humans, or is there no difference?
5 A. There is evidence that -- well, this depends on a lot of
6 things. One thing that it depends on is what the rules are for
7 determining voter intent from the paper ballots, and different
8 states have different rules regarding the hand count.
9 Okay. We'll see how long this lasts. Again, I am very,
10 very sorry.
11 It is generally the case that hand tabulation of
12 hand-marked paper ballots finds more valid votes than machine
13 tabulation of hand-marked paper ballots because voters
14 sometimes mark ballots in a way that the machine isn't able to
15 pick up but that humans looking at the marks can.
16 That can happen for a variety of reasons, ranging from
17 voters not following instructions for how to mark ovals or how
18 to mark their paper ballot to voters making a mark that is too
19 light or too small or in the wrong color ink or something else
20 that can cause scanners to fail to pick up that mark. There
21 are examples where scanners have been misprogrammed and make
22 errors that are relatively large compared to what a hand count
23 would find.
24 In the other direction, there are a lot of different ways
25 of conducting a hand count. These range from a kind of calling
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
143
1 tally where someone is looking at the face of a ballot and
2 saying, I see a vote for Abraham Lincoln, while someone is
3 looking over that person's shoulder saying, yes, it is a vote
4 for Abraham Lincoln, and two people are making little picket
5 fence tallies of the votes that are being seen and then
6 comparing their answers every -- comparing their tallies every
7 ten ballots or something like that. That is one title, a
8 four-person counting team, that is a particularly accurate way
9 of doing a hand count.
10 There are less accurate ways of doing a hand count. For
11 example, trying to sort the ballots according to who a vote was
12 for in a particular contest and then count the stacks after the
13 ballots have been sorted. There are some scholarship that
14 suggest that that is a relatively inaccurate way of conducting
15 a hand count.
16 Q. Is it fair to say that scanners probably produce a faster
17 tabulation?
18 A. Yes. I think my general belief and experience is that
19 under ordinary circumstances, scanners are fast and do a good
20 job with technical cases; people are slow and do a good job
21 with the edge cases.
22 Q. I want to ask you about some specifics of Georgia's
23 current audit law, and I'm not asking you about your -- about
24 the law itself for a legal opinion. I'm asking you about how
25 the audits that the law calls for -- I'm asking about those.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
144
1 So first, Georgia law requires -- and I'm referring to
2 OCGA 21-2-498(b). It requires local election superintendents
3 to conduct either precertification tabulation or risk-limiting
4 audits.
5 What is a tabulation audit?
6 A. That could mean any number of things. From that word
7 alone, I have no idea what is intended.
8 Q. So there's no -- that is not a term of art that people
9 charged with conducting these would understand?
10 A. It is not a term of art that refers to any specific
11 procedure. People do talk about tabulation audits by which
12 they seem to mean some kind of check of whether the votes are
13 being tabulated accurately, but there are many ways of doing
14 that that have different likelihoods of detecting problems and
15 different abilities to correct problems.
16 Q. And do you happen to know whether the risk-limiting audits
17 provided for under Georgia law correspond to the risk-limiting
18 audit process that you invented?
19 A. I think that the definition corresponds to my original
20 definition, but there is evidence that -- well, first of all,
21 because such a large fraction of those in Georgia are cast
22 using ballot-marking devices, no procedure, regardless of what
23 you call it, can provide affirmative evidence that the reported
24 winners really win -- really won, or conversely, can limit the
25 risk that an incorrect outcome or incorrect reported outcome
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
145
1 will become final.
2 So whether the Georgia law calls for using the procedure
3 that I invented or one of the procedures that I came up with or
4 not, it can't have the intended effect of limiting the risk
5 that an incorrect outcome will become final because, among
6 other things, the vote record that it is relying on isn't
7 necessarily a complete and accurate record of the voter's
8 expressed selections.
9 Q. And if Georgia law requires that precertification audits
10 must be performed on one contest, is that enough -- is that
11 enough of a safeguard to ensure an election -- election
12 outcomes are accurate?
13 A. You can't borrow strength from an audit of one contest to
14 determine anything about the correctness of another contest.
15 So only the contest that is audited would have any evidence of
16 correctness, again on the assumption that all of the other
17 pieces were in place, including the trustworthiness of the
18 paper trail.
19 Q. And I think you said early on in your testimony here today
20 that audits needed to have a legal consequence in order to
21 matter.
22 Can you explain that?
23 A. To limit the risk that an incorrect outcome will become
24 final, the audit needs to be able to correct the outcome if it
25 discovers that the reported outcome is wrong. My understanding
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
146
1 of the law in Georgia is that audits don't have the power to
2 correct outcomes, that there is an original machine count that
3 depending on -- I don't recall the details of the law, but
4 under some circumstances there can be a re-count, but the
5 re-count, by default, is a second machine count, not a hand
6 count, and that the audit basically has no power to correct the
7 outcome, even if the audit leads to a full hand count that
8 reveals that the reported outcome was incorrect.
9 Q. During earlier testimony in this case, the defendants have
10 suggested that ballot-marking devices are superior to
11 hand-marked paper ballots because ballot-marking devices
12 prevent voters from making errors.
13 Do you agree with that?
14 A. First of all, anything that a ballot-marking device is
15 supposed to do, it will only do if it is performing correctly.
16 And the whole idea here is that ballot-marking devices cannot
17 be relied upon to perform correctly because they are
18 susceptible to bugs, misconfiguration, and malware.
19 So under some circumstances, if they are performing
20 correctly, a ballot-marking device might prevent certain kinds
21 of error such as overvoting. But precinct-based optical
22 scanning can provide the same protection for hand-marked paper
23 ballots by spitting back out a ballot if it has an overvote.
24 This sort of overvote protection, I believe, is mandated by
25 HAVA.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
147
1 Other kinds of errors, such as unintentionally making or
2 selecting a candidate other than the intended candidate, a
3 ballot-marking device can't protect against that, nor can
4 hand-marked paper ballots.
5 Q. So the printout on a ballot-marking device is not
6 ambiguous; right? Assuming it reflects what the voter did when
7 you look at the paper, it is unambiguous what the choices are;
8 right?
9 A. Well, it is unambiguously what the machine printed, but it
10 is entirely ambiguously what that -- what the voter selected.
11 Q. Now, we've heard some testimony from State officials
12 suggesting that since all voting systems are vulnerable to
13 insiders that they are all the same or equivalent from a
14 security standpoint; is that true?
15 A. I would disagree with that.
16 Q. Why would you disagree?
17 A. Well, several reasons. First, as I mentioned before,
18 there are some uses of technology where even if that technology
19 misbehaves, either through error or malfeasance, you can still
20 check whether it got the right answer. Optical scan voting
21 systems are an example of that. You can make an end run around
22 the technology so that even if insiders altered the software on
23 the optical scanner, you could use a properly designed audit to
24 get affirmative evidence of whether the reported result is
25 correct or have a high probability of correcting it if it
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
148
1 isn't.
2 Other kinds of vulnerabilities to insiders, for example,
3 altering cast ballots after they are cast or substituting other
4 ballots for the ballots that were cast by the eligible voters.
5 You know, ballot box stuffing, removing ballots, things like
6 that. That is going to be a vulnerability whether you are
7 using hand-marked paper ballots or ballot-marking devices.
8 But to alter a substantial number of votes that way is
9 generally going to require a large number of people on the
10 ground. It is going to require accomplices. It is something
11 that is sort of happening at a retail level rather than a
12 wholesale level.
13 In contrast, other technology vulnerabilities, such as the
14 vulnerabilities of the ballot-marking devices, are wholesale
15 vulnerabilities. A single actor can implant malware that
16 propagates through the system in such a way as to alter a large
17 number of votes.
18 Q. And given the variety of voting systems that are out
19 there, how does the concept of software independence bear on
20 the auditability of them?
21 A. So software independence is a notion that was introduced
22 by Ron Rivest and John Wack as a security property that some
23 voting systems have. The idea of software independence is that
24 an undetected change or flaw in the software of a voting system
25 should not be able to produce an undetectable change in the
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
149
1 outcome of an election.
2 Strong software independence adds to that the requirement
3 that if a problem is detected, you should be able to correct
4 the outcome of the election without rerunning the election.
5 So ballot-marking devices, one can argue whether they are
6 software-independent because, in principle, voters could detect
7 malfunctions, although in practice, they are not very good at
8 it. And even if a voter does detect malfunction, there is
9 nothing the voter can do to prove to a poll worker or election
10 official that they did detect a malfunction.
11 There is never -- the ballot-marking devices don't provide
12 the voter with any evidence they can show someone else to prove
13 that what was printed was not what they collected on the
14 screen, and that is a fundamental gap in the security model for
15 ballot-marking devices.
16 I think I have gone on a tangent. I can't -- can you
17 remind me of what question I'm answering?
18 Q. Yes, just about how software independence applies to the
19 various voting methods.
20 A. Software independence, yes.
21 So regardless of whether you believe the ballot-marking
22 devices are software-independent, if you believe that voters
23 detecting it is an adequate property or characteristic, they
24 are definitely not strongly software-independent. Because if
25 an election official becomes convinced if a voter does detect a
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
150
1 malfunction in a ballot-marking device, there is no way to
2 determine who really won the election without rerunning the
3 election, basically redoing the election.
4 In contrast, for hand-marked paper ballots counted using
5 optical scan tabulators, it -- because -- if you have taken
6 care of the paper trail adequately so there remains a
7 trustworthy record of the vote, if the scanners are detected to
8 have misbehaved, there is still a way to determine who really
9 won the election, namely by doing an accurate count of the
10 votes from the trustworthy paper trails either using a
11 different set of standards or full manual hand count that is
12 done carefully enough to ensure that it finds the correct
13 winners from the paper.
14 Q. Thank you.
15 So I just want to wrap up by recapping your opinions on
16 two issues.
17 The first issue is: When it comes to auditing the
18 outcomes of elections, how does Georgia's current system with
19 BMD voting compare to a system without BMD voting?
20 A. Because such a large fraction of the votes are cast using
21 ballot-marking devices, there is no way to determine whether
22 the reported winners are the winners that you would get from
23 accurately tabulating the voter's expressed choices. So you
24 can't conduct an audit that genuinely limits the risk that an
25 incorrect outcome will become final and binding given the heavy
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
151
1 reliance on ballot-marking devices.
2 Q. Now, if the plaintiffs in this case have their way and
3 Georgia moved instead to a system of voting in person which
4 involved, one, BMD for accessibility, hand-marked paper ballots
5 for everyone else, and scanner tabulations, would conducting an
6 election using that arrangement provide voters an accountable
7 vote?
8 A. The accountability of the vote depends in part on whether
9 chain of custody is maintained. It depends on physical
10 security of the voted ballots and having a complete canvass,
11 including pollbook reconciliation, ballot accounting, and other
12 measures.
13 But having the vast majority of votes cast using
14 hand-marked paper ballots would make those votes accountable
15 under those circumstances. There would still be an issue for
16 those votes that are cast using ballot-marking devices.
17 MR. McGUIRE: Thank you. Thank you, Professor Stark.
18 I have no further questions on direct.
19 And -- oh, actually, you know what? Just a moment.
20 I was handed while I was examining you what has been marked as
21 Coalition for Good Governance Plaintiffs' Exhibit 64.

2 Q. It is a 176-page copy of what purports to be your CV dated
3 January 17, 2024.
4 Is that the most recent version of your CV?
5 A. Yes. I found one error in it that I haven't yet posted to
6 the web, but that is the most current version that I have out
7 there.
8 Q. And I will represent that it was pulled down from a
9 location online where it is publicly available.
10 A. Yes, sir.
11 MR. McGUIRE: So, Your Honor, I would move this into

15 MR. McGUIRE: Thank you.
16 And with that, no further questions on direct.
17 Thank you, Professor Stark.
18 THE COURT: You had a few questions?
19 MR. OLES: I have a few questions, Judge, if I may.
20 THE COURT: All right. Would you share those with
21 counsel before you proceed.
22 MR. McGUIRE: We have not seen any questions and --
23 MR. BROWN: That's not true.
24 MR. McGUIRE: Oh, we have? Must have happened while
25 I was up there.

1 MR. BROWN: Your Honor, we have reviewed some of his
2 questions, and I have tried to explain to Mr. Oles that --
3 THE COURT: Speak up a little more. You have tried
4 to explain to Mr. Oles?
5 MR. BROWN: That they are not relevant and not
6 helpful, and he was going to talk to Mr. Favorito, and I
7 haven't been able to circle back with him.
8 I believe there's different ways we can do it. One
9 is to approach the bench and discuss them to see if they are
10 appropriate at this time.
11 THE COURT: That's fine. Why don't you approach the
12 bench.
13 (A bench conference ensued, as follows:)
14 THE COURT: Let me just talk to the audience first.
15 Please be quiet while we are up here. It is hard
16 enough to handle this. So if you need to talk, go outside.
17 (A bench conference ensued, as follows:)
18 MR. OLES: Thank you, Judge.
19 For the record, my client is not Mr. Favorito. My
20 client is Mr. Davis, and he is out getting a copy of the report
21 that we tried to put into evidence the other day, which I
22 understand Ms. Johnston is coming back, so I'm getting a number
23 of copies, and that is why he is not here in the courtroom.
24 THE COURT: All right.
25 MR. OLES: Judge, we understand Dr. Stark and
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
154
1 appreciate his testimony as an election audit expert.
2 Obviously, one of the key issues in this case is going to be
3 whether or not he -- or is going -- for the Court to consider
4 if it sees fit to rule upon the ballot-marking device is how
5 effective Georgia's election audit procedures are.
6 The questions that I would like -- because the Court
7 is going to be asked then to make some sort of ruling that
8 involves what those election audit procedures may or may not
9 have to look like after the Court's ruling.
10 The questions I would like to pose have to do with
11 several situations that did actually come up, and I would like
12 to pose these questions to Dr. Stark. They are addressed in
13 his report, which is in the docket of the case at 1346-1. He
14 has talked about a couple of situations. He has talked about
15 some gaps in the mail-in ballot images. He has talked about
16 some opposing in-person and mail-in.
17 I would like to pose some questions to him about
18 whether or not the audit procedures that Georgia is currently
19 using are sufficient to account for that or whether or not he
20 would make recommendations to this Court for improvement in
21 that practice, that that would then meet constitutional
22 standards.
23 For the same reason, I would like to ask him about
24 some observations that there were some SHA authentication files
25 missing, whether or not the audits that he reviewed are
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
155
1 sufficient to account for that.
2 I would also ask to --
3 THE COURT: I'm sorry. I don't think he was -- are
4 you talking about recent ones?
5 Because I don't know that he reviewed the recent
6 audits.
7 MR. OLES: The most recent one I had was when he went
8 back into '22, March 9th of '22. He did an update to his
9 declaration, and these are the results that I'm talking about.
10 MR. McGUIRE: So two issues. One issue is more of a
11 meta issue, and that is that, obviously, Mr. Davis used to be
12 part of our group, but he is no longer part of our group.
13 Dr. Stark is a retained expert by our group, so we kind of feel
14 like this is highjacking our expert to pursue an agenda
15 separate from the agenda from which he was engaged. So that
16 would be an objection.
17 Second of all, as far as the substance of what
18 Mr. Oles hopes to get in, it is backward-looking. It is not
19 looking forward. This is a case about threatened injury. It
20 is not a case about what happened in the past.
21 And while that might be marginally relevant to the
22 issue of future harm, it is, at best, marginal. And Professor
23 Stark's testimony, I think, will be diluted if we allow that
24 kind of questioning to go forward, and that will essentially
25 prejudice our case.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
156
1 THE COURT: How much time are you asking for to do
2 this?
3 MR. OLES: Judge, I think 15 or 20 minutes. I don't
4 even know that it is going to take that long, but I won't be
5 long.
6 But I do think, looking forward, his opinion as to
7 what an effective audit is going to be going forward is going
8 to be very important to Your Honor's ruling in the case.
9 THE COURT: Have you advised Professor Stark that he
10 might be subject to this examination by Mr. Oles?
11 MR. McGUIRE: He has given, I think, nine-plus
12 declarations in the case, so --
13 THE COURT: I understand that.
14 MR. McGUIRE: -- it is possible it is within the zone
15 of things he's aware of, but we haven't talked about it
16 specifically.
17 THE COURT: No, I'm not asking that he would be
18 asking -- he understands what the issues are between you and
19 the State defendants, but I don't know if he understands who
20 Mr. Oles is.
21 That is why -- have you advised him that there might
22 be this possibility that Mr. Oles would ask questions?
23 MR. McGUIRE: He is aware that one of the plaintiffs
24 splintered off from our group. He is aware that we believe
25 there's a difference in case strategy between us. So he is
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
157
1 aware of that. We haven't really discussed details about how
2 he should approach it.
3 THE COURT: That's fine.
4 MR. CROSS: Your Honor, can I ask a quick question?
5 Is this a direct exam or a cross-exam?
6 THE COURT: Well, it would have to be a direct exam.
7 He is not an adverse party.
8 MR. CROSS: Exactly. That is what I thought. If it
9 is a direct exam, then I guess the problem I have is we have a
10 plaintiff that wants to do a direct exam of an expert that his
11 client has no longer retained that is adverse to the other
12 plaintiffs.
13 THE COURT: Well, I don't know that it is adverse.
14 MR. CROSS: Well, I mean, that is what I just heard.
15 MR. McGUIRE: I think it is tactically adverse.
16 MR. CROSS: Affirmatively unhelpful.
17 I guess the other question I would raise is, is the
18 plaintiffs don't typically get to free-ride.
19 Is Mr. Davis going to pay?
20 THE COURT: Well, that has been a constant theme.
21 All right. Thank you, gentlemen. I will think about
22 it.
23 (The bench conference was thereby concluded,
24 and there was a brief pause in the
25 proceedings.)
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
158
1 THE COURT: I think you should look over your
2 question and determine which two questions you think are most
3 relevant, knowing what the testimony has been and the scope of
4 what it is, because I think that there really is an unfairness
5 that these folks who have called the witness and who is their
6 expert for years and years who they have worked with and have
7 developed a case about in which this expert knows about for you
8 to come in and then introduce a whole potentially new set of
9 issues is really not fair and not appropriate.
10 But I will let you ask two questions, so look at what
11 you've got, and you can follow up on those with limited
12 questioning, but -- and I don't know what those will be that
13 you're going to choose. You can look over what you've got.
14 (There was a brief pause in the proceedings.)
15 THE COURT: Ready?
16 MR. OLES: Thank you, Judge.
17 Before I get started, I do appreciate the Court's
18 indulgence and the fact that the Court has been so fair-minded
19 to my client this late in the case in a very difficult
20 situation.
21 That being said, putting in an arbitrary limit of two
22 questions is extremely limiting. I will do my best for my
23 client within those two questions.
24 THE COURT: If there is an actual follow-up from what
25 the witness says, I'll let you ask the question. I'll hear it,

3 DIRECT EXAMINATION
4 BY MR. OLES:
5 Q. Good afternoon, Dr. Stark. My name is David Oles. I
6 represent one of the plaintiffs, Ricardo Davis. It is nice to
7 meet you.
8 Can you hear me all right?
9 A. Sorry. Yes. Good afternoon, Mr. Oles. Thank you.
10 Q. Thank you.
11 I have -- my two questions then stem out of a declaration
12 that you prepared. You went back and revisited an earlier work
13 that you had done, and you prepared an updated declaration in
14 about March 9, 2022, it is dated.
15 And it discusses your examination or some thoughts
16 regarding audits around some actual results that you
17 investigated in Fulton County.
18 You are familiar with that?
19 A. It is my ninth declaration, approximately?
20 Q. I believe that.
21 It was updated March 9th, 2022.
22 A. Yes, I think that is the one -- yeah, I recall the one
23 you're referring to. Yes.
24 Q. All right. Thank you, sir.
25 In that -- in that declaration you focused on a couple of
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
160
1 issues -- I will say issues -- that you perceived there may be
2 problems in the process -- audit problems in the process.
3 The first had to do with -- had to do with missing ballot
4 images, both mail-in and in-person ballot images, and you
5 focused on -- and you had some numbers in your report which are
6 in the declaration.
7 And I listened to you earlier. You were talking about
8 problems of audits and how they are improved without the BMDs
9 in the process. However, on this issue that you focused in on
10 your report with the missing ballot images, Judge Totenberg is
11 going to be asked -- assuming that she rules that the system is
12 unconstitutional, she is going to be asked to also opine upon
13 the sufficiency of the audit processes.
14 So my question to you is this: Given the missing ballot
15 images that you found in your report, do you perceive there to
16 be a problem with Georgia's current audit process? And if so,
17 what would you recommend to improve that going forward?
18 A. The ballot images would not play a role in the
19 risk-limiting audit of the results or the risk-limiting audit
20 procedure, whether it has been applied to hand-marked paper
21 ballots or a collection of vote records that included a lot of
22 BMD printout.
23 So the missing images don't directly affect the audit, but
24 they are a sign that election officials, at least in Fulton
25 County, don't have very good control over their election
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
161
1 materials.
2 There was other evidence of that in that declaration as
3 well.
4 Q. So are you saying that there is nothing that can be done
5 in order -- in the manner of an audit requirement in order to
6 catch that sort of an error?
7 A. I am not quite understanding the question. I'm sorry.
8 The -- my understanding is that there were cast vote
9 records purportedly for every piece of paper that were cast,
10 and there was paper which the plaintiffs were not granted
11 access to, but in the course of scanning the paper, images were
12 generated by the scanner, and some of those were evidently
13 deleted before production.
14 Q. Okay.
15 A. Ordinarily, a risk-limiting audit would not involve
16 examining those images. It would involve examining the
17 underlying paper records.
18 Q. All right. And then if I understand what you were
19 testifying to earlier today, if the -- if the BMD voting
20 process is taken out of this and you move to hand-marked paper
21 ballots, is this problem going to go away?
22 A. No. That is a problem of just the administration of
23 elections in general. There are other issues that I point at
24 in that declaration, including the fact that some ballots were
25 included in the first machine count more than once, some were
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
162
1 included in the second machine count more than once, and there
2 were differences even in the total number of ballots scanned
3 between those two machine counts.
4 That has nothing to do with ballot-marking devices per se.
5 It has to do with how well Fulton County in this particular
6 instance keeps its materials organized and inventoried.
7 Q. Then, again, looking forward what we're going to be asking
8 Judge Totenberg in the way of a remedy here, do you have any
9 recommendations that you would -- I'm being redundant.
10 Do you have any recommendations in this regard?
11 A. For audits specifically?
12 Q. Yes.
13 A. Okay. So I'm not an authority on Georgia's election law
14 or -- I have read the current audit law, but I'm not an
15 attorney.
16 One of the most fundamental problems that I've come across
17 in elections in Georgia --
18 MR. CROSS: Sorry to interrupt.
19 THE COURT: I'm sorry. Doctor, just one second.
20 THE WITNESS: Yes, ma'am.
21 MR. CROSS: Just to clarify, I guess I'm trying to
22 understand the relevance of this.
23 Is Mr. Davis seeking audits as relief?
24 Because I don't believe that is the relief that any
25 plaintiff is seeking, so I'm not understanding what the
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
163
1 question is for, and I don't want the Court to be confused
2 about the relief that plaintiffs are seeking.
3 THE COURT: Could you read me his question again.
4 (There was a brief pause in the proceedings.)
5 THE COURT: What was the question you asked, sir?
6 MR. OLES: Judge, the question that I asked Dr. Stark
7 is simply, in light of what he found in the investigation he
8 conducted with the orders of this Court, is he making any
9 recommendations -- would he make any recommendations here in
10 the ways of an audit, assuming that, for example, if the BMD
11 device is taken out of the process and the Court finds that to
12 be unconstitutional, does he then have a recommendation for a
13 robust audit process that will ensure that the kinds of things
14 that he found are not going to reoccur?
15 MR. CROSS: Your Honor, with that clarification, it
16 is fine.
17 THE COURT: All right. Did you hear the question
18 again restated, Professor?
19 THE WITNESS: Yes, Your Honor.
20 THE COURT: Do you have any recommendations about
21 what would be a robust audit process?
22 THE WITNESS: Yes, Your Honor.
23 First and foremost, additional steps need to be taken
24 to ensure that the record of the votes is complete and
25 trustworthy when the audit is conducted, and that requires more
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
164
1 thorough canvass than at least some Georgia counties evidently
2 conduct. It requires physical inventories of ballots, physical
3 accounting for ballots, pollbook reconciliation, what is called
4 ballot accounting, comparing the number of ballots that were
5 sent to a polling place to the number that came back from the
6 polling place voted, blank, or spoiled.
7 It requires more attention to chain of custody,
8 verifying that chain of custody wasn't broken. It requires
9 proper attention to the physical seals on both voting equipment
10 and voted ballots, checking the log-in seals when seals are
11 broken, recording the number of the new seal, checking that on
12 when materials are reopened, and this kind of shoe leather work
13 of physical security to ensure that the paper trail is complete
14 and trustworthy.
15 If that is done, then there is a variety of ways that
16 probative audits could be conducted to establish whether
17 reported outcomes are correct and to correct them if not. That
18 will still require -- an audit should be expanded to include
19 every contested race, not just one contested race. There
20 should ideally be a risk-limiting audit.
21 The current law that allows different jurisdictions
22 to pick whether they are doing a tabulation audit, which is an
23 even unspecified thing, or a risk-limiting audit should be
24 eliminated. There is no way to conduct a risk-limiting audit
25 of any contest that crosses jurisdictional boundaries unless
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
165
1 all the jurisdictions in which ballots were cast in that
2 contest participate.
3 So the current audit law that allows counties to do
4 something other than a risk-limiting audit undermines the
5 ability to conduct a risk-limiting audit of a statewide contest
6 or a federal congressional contest or something like that.
7 Audits also need to be given the power or there needs
8 to be some provision that if the audit determines that the
9 outcome of one or more contests is wrong, there has to be a way
10 to correct the outcome of this contest under the law.
11 And again, I'm not an attorney. My understanding of
12 Georgia election law is that audits can't correct outcomes even
13 if audits determine that the outcome were wrong.
14 THE COURT: Thank you, sir.
15 MR. OLES: Thank you, Doctor.
16 THE COURT: And this all dealt with us having an
17 election that did not have a BMD or something, as I understand
18 your recommendations with -- the assumption was made that there
19 was only hand-marked ballots; is that right, sir?
20 THE WITNESS: Yes. Yes, Your Honor.
21 THE COURT: Okay.
22 MR. OLES: Thank you, Judge.
23 THE COURT: All right.
24 CROSS-EXAMINATION
25
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
166
1 BY MR. RUSSO:
2 Q. Good afternoon, Dr. Stark.
3 How are you doing today?
4 A. I'm well. Better than a few weeks ago. It is a little
5 touch and go. Thank you.
6 Q. It is nice to meet you. Getting organized here.
7 A. Of course.
8 Q. Dr. Stark, you stated earlier that -- in the preferred
9 system that you would recommend for the state of Georgia that
10 if the plaintiffs had their way, there would be BMD ballots
11 used for only disabled voters.
12 Did I hear that correctly?
13 A. I don't think I said that. I think there should be an
14 accessible means for voters with disabilities to independently
15 mark and verify the ballot. Currently, the best technology for
16 that is some ballot-marking devices. Although some
17 ballot-marking devices had failed usability to sustain in other
18 states.
19 I don't know if there is or should be a means of
20 restricting access to ballot-marking devices to only voters who
21 have -- who identify as having disabilities, but I think that
22 the default option for marking a ballot should be hand-marking
23 for those voters who have the physical dexterity and eyesight
24 to be able to do so.
25 Q. So just so I understand, it would be voters who are
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
167
1 able -- who are disabled and may be able to use a hand-marked
2 paper ballot.
3 Is that who you are saying would use it?
4 A. Well, some disabilities don't affect one's ability to use
5 a hand-marked paper ballot. For example, many wheelchair users
6 request a hand-marked paper ballot. The kinds of disabilities
7 that a ballot-marking device is helpful for are generally
8 visual disabilities and dexterity impairments that prevent you
9 from actually holding a pen or physically handling a piece of
10 paper.
11 But I don't think -- again, I'm not an attorney, but I'm
12 not suggesting that there should be some test before a voter,
13 you know, gets to use a ballot-marking device rather than
14 marking a ballot by hand.
15 Q. Thank you for that clarification.
16 THE COURT: Could I ask one follow-up question?
17 I also heard you to say you just didn't think there
18 should be also a restriction on people using the BMDs if they
19 so chose to use them. But maybe I misunderstood what you said.
20 THE WITNESS: Well, Your Honor, I am agnostic on that
21 point. I just don't know if there is a basis for saying a
22 legal way that one could say -- discourage voters from using
23 ballot-marking devices unless they actually need that
24 accommodation to privately and independently mark a ballot.
25 And that is not a -- I don't know what to say. From
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
168
1 a security standpoint, the fewer votes that are cast using
2 ballot-marking devices the better.
3 BY MR. RUSSO:
4 Q. Dr. Stark, is it your opinion that if there was such a
5 system where voters could -- who want to vote in person on a
6 BMD are able to, is it your opinion that that type of system
7 could produce an auditable result?
8 A. It has the same -- first of all, there are many states
9 that do that, including the State of California. Whether an
10 audit can produce affirmative evidence that outcomes are
11 correct will depend on the margin and the number of voters who
12 use ballot-marking devices to cast their votes. If there are
13 few enough voters who use ballot-marking devices, that even if
14 their votes were incorrectly recorded it couldn't alter a
15 political outcome, then an audit can still generate affirmative
16 evidence that the outcome is correct.
17 But if enough voters use BMDs, that changing their votes
18 could alter the political outcome, could widen the margin, then
19 no audit will be able to provide affirmative evidence that the
20 reported outcome is correct.
21 Q. And would this -- this concept would be the same if there
22 were hand-marked paper ballots for all in-person voters except
23 certain disabled voters if the margin was within a certain
24 range; correct?
25 A. If the margin is sufficiently small that alterations to
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
169
1 the BMD printout -- the inaccuracies in the BMD printout could
2 change the outcome, then an audit is not going to be able to
3 show that the outcome is correct.
4 Q. So, in essence, you're looking at how many ballots are
5 cast on a BMD and are using a BMD and the margin to determine
6 whether an outcome could be confirmed through a risk-limiting
7 audit; is that correct?
8 A. Well, because there's a gap between the voter's expressed
9 preferences and what the BMD prints, a conservative approach
10 would be to treat the votes recorded on a BMD printout as
11 intrinsically uncertain. Though an audit that pulls a BMD
12 printout in the course of its investigation, the honest way to
13 treat that would be to act as if the BMD printout recorded a
14 vote for the loser in every contest, regardless of what it
15 actually showed because it might, in fact, have been a vote for
16 the loser that was misrecorded by the BMD.
17 Q. So there's not a maximum number of voters who could vote
18 on a BMD is what you are saying?
19 A. No, I am not saying there is a maximum.
20 Q. There is --
21 A. I'm saying the BMD printout should be treated as
22 intrinsically uncertain in the course of auditing.
23 Q. Thank you for that.
24 Is it your opinion that BMD systems have some of the same
25 failure modes that hand-marked paper ballots have?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
170
1 A. Yes.
2 Q. What are some of those failure modes?
3 A. Well, a poorly designed ballot, whether it is a paper
4 ballot or an on-screen ballot, can confuse voters and make it
5 difficult for voters to record their intended selections
6 accurately.
7 Once a ballot has been marked, the same physical security
8 concerns apply to the hand-marked paper ballot as to
9 ballot-marking device printout. Regardless, it needs to be
10 kept accounted for and secure.
11 There's -- otherwise, there is a possibility that someone
12 will substitute ballots that are inauthentic, remove ballots,
13 alter marks, and so on.
14 Q. Now, is it your opinion that Georgia should conduct a
15 routine risk-limiting audit on every race on the ballot?
16 A. It is my opinion that every jurisdiction should routinely
17 audit every contest and every election -- every contested race
18 and every election. The 2018 National Academies report on the
19 Securing the Vote makes that recommendation as well. They
20 advocate starting off with statewide contests and adding small
21 contests down to local contests as states gain experience.
22 Q. Now, did you -- did you consider the logistics of how that
23 would work in a state like -- or in Georgia, I should say, with
24 159 counties?
25 A. Yes, sir.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
171
1 Q. And is it your opinion that auditing every contest --
2 every race that is contested is feasible?
3 A. Yes, by using the most current methods for risk-limiting
4 audits. I have a recent paper with a couple of Ph.D. students
5 showing that Orange County, California, which I believe is the
6 nation's fifth largest jurisdiction and by itself is larger
7 than many states, could have audited every contest in the 2020
8 general election of which there were approximately 200 in
9 Orange County to a risk limit of five percent by examining
10 something like seven-tenths of one percent of the cast ballots.
11 In 2022, they had a comparable number of contests. And if
12 I recall correctly, the sample size would have been between one
13 and two percent of the ballots cast.
14 So in that -- in both cases, those numbers included either
15 tied contests or contests with such a small margin, that a full
16 hand count would have been required to confirm those contests.
17 That is included in those work (Zoom interference) estimates.
18 Q. And remind me, what kind of voting system is used in
19 Orange County?
20 A. Orange County uses Hart's voting system. I don't recall
21 the -- in detail the model numbers and so on.
22 Q. It is a ballot-marking device, though?
23 A. They do have ballot-marking devices for accessibility in
24 every precinct, every vote -- every polling place.
25 THE COURT: Do they have also hand-marked ballot
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
172
1 systems?
2 THE WITNESS: Yes, Your Honor.
3 THE COURT: So when you tell me -- tell us about the
4 one or two percent. That includes both the BMD ballots and the
5 hand-marked ballots?
6 THE WITNESS: Yes, Your Honor. That number is of the
7 sheets of paper that were cast, regardless of how they were
8 marked.
9 BY MR. RUSSO:
10 Q. And so none of the races in that election were within the
11 margin that would have prevented an audit from occurring due to
12 the voters voting -- the disabled voters?
13 A. Yes. At least one of those two elections included a tied
14 contest. So if any ballots were cast using ballot-marking
15 device or ballots using ballot-marked devices, the answer is
16 intrinsically unknown.
17 Q. So just so I understand it, so if one disabled voter had
18 used a ballot-marking device in that race, it would have been
19 intrinsically unauditable?
20 A. Well, an audit couldn't show definitively who won.
21 Q. I guess they got lucky in that race.
22 A. Any inference about who won would require assuming that
23 that ballot accurately reflected that voter's intended
24 selections.
25 Q. Now, it is also your opinion that a risk-limiting audit
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
173
1 must be able to correct the reported outcome before the
2 election is certified?
3 Is that what I understand?
4 A. Well, California briefly considered allowing risk-limiting
5 audits to go back in time and change the outcome of an already
6 certified election. That didn't seem like a great idea to me.
7 But the logical issue is simply if you want to limit the
8 risk that an incorrect outcome will be certified, you need to
9 correct the outcome before you certify it.
10 Q. And is that -- well, I guess my question is -- you know,
11 what is -- do you have an opinion as to why that versus just
12 allowing an election contest to determine the actual winner?
13 A. By election contest, do you mean a particular legal
14 process?
15 Q. I'm sorry. I could not hear that last --
16 THE COURT: Did you mean a particular election
17 contest? What did you mean?
18 BY MR. RUSSO:
19 Q. All I meant is an election contest that would determine
20 whether the results -- the certified results were correct or
21 not.
22 A. I'm sorry.
23 When you say election contest, are you referring to a
24 particular legal proceeding?
25 Q. Okay. I understand now where we're missing each other.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
174
1 Yes, I am. I am referring to where one candidate may
2 challenge the results because they believe that candidate
3 believes he or she won.
4 A. I don't know what the barriers are to that. I don't know
5 what costs are involved. I don't know what a candidate needs
6 to do to make that happen. But the idea of a risk-limiting
7 audit is that it is a nonpartisan, non-adversarial quality
8 control measure to ensure that there is strong evidence that
9 the reported outcomes are right before you certify them.
10 Q. Would you agree with me that that is a policy decision
11 then for policymakers to determine?
12 A. Well, it is wrapped up in the definition of risk-limiting
13 audit. If the audit is going to limit the risk of certifying
14 the wrong outcome, then there needs to be a mechanism for the
15 audit to correct the outcome if it determines that the outcome
16 is wrong.
17 Q. So in that -- so if policymakers choose to have election
18 contests like we just discussed, then that would not be a
19 risk-limiting audit in your definition?
20 A. If there were automatically election contests to correct
21 the outcome before it is final, then that could be a somewhat
22 (Zoom interference) risk-limiting audit. But if it isn't
23 automatic, then the audit isn't doing what it claims to do,
24 mainly to limit the risk of certifying wrong outcomes.
25 Q. In terms of being able to change the results through the
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
175
1 audit, do you have any concerns that the scanner could possibly
2 be hacked and the results be altered?
3 A. So the mechanism by which a risk-limiting audit corrects
4 the outcome is by conducting a full hand count, accurate hand
5 count of the underlying paper records. It doesn't involve the
6 scanner.
7 Q. So is there a -- did you -- have you ever considered
8 whether the hand-marked paper ballots could be altered between
9 the time they are scanned and the time the audit occurs?
10 A. Yes. That is why secure chain of custody and the
11 compliance audit are crucial. Because if the paper trail is no
12 longer trustworthy by the time of the audit, then no audit can
13 provide affirmative assurance that the outcome is right.
14 Q. And this is so even if the optical scanner has taken the
15 images of the hand-marked paper ballots; correct?
16 A. Yes. Scanners are, first of all, not like cameras. They
17 have CPUs and software and a bunch of things going on. So what
18 comes out of a scanner may actually look different from what
19 auditors would see if they looked at the underlying paper.
20 Moreover, a problem that results from relying on images is
21 you need an assurance that every piece of paper, that every
22 validly cast ballot was scanned exactly once, and its unaltered
23 image is present in the collection.
24 Q. You would agree that the images could be altered; right?
25 A. Yes.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
176
1 Q. Now, a minute ago, we were talking about auditing every
2 race on every ballot.
3 And did you -- I might have just missed you say this.
4 Are there any states in the country that presently audit
5 every race and every election -- every contested race?
6 A. The State of California does, but it doesn't do a
7 risk-limiting audit of every race and every contest.
8 Q. Okay.
9 A. I think there are other states that do as well.
10 Q. Now, there is some dispute amongst experts in the field
11 about what is a risk-limiting audit?
12 A. There's, yes, some dispute over the definition of the
13 term, but I don't think that there's disagreement over whether
14 applying a risk-limiting audit procedure to an untrustworthy
15 record of the vote can provide affirmative evidence that
16 outcomes are correct.
17 Q. So what is -- you said there is some dispute over the
18 term.
19 What is the dispute?
20 A. Well, I don't want to put words in anyone's mouth, but I
21 think it is an accurate paraphrase of the State's expert, Ben
22 Adida, that a risk-limiting audit is just a procedure you can
23 do to an arbitrary pile of vote records, whether that pile of
24 vote records is a trustworthy record of the expressed
25 preferences of the eligible voters. Though he seems to
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
177
1 consider an RLA an algorithm. But I think he would concede
2 that if the paper trail isn't a trustworthy record of the vote,
3 then applying that procedure to those vote records can't
4 guarantee a maximum chance that the wrong outcome will be
5 certified rather than being caught and corrected.
6 Q. And the -- when you refer to the procedure, the
7 trustworthiness, you're referring to the paper trail?
8 A. Yes, sir.
9 Q. And did you review any poll worker manuals in Georgia or
10 other poll worker forms when making your -- excuse me. I had
11 a -- cat caught my tongue there.
12 Did you review any poll worker manuals or poll worker
13 forms when arriving at your -- to arrive at your opinion in
14 this case?
15 And I'm talking about poll worker forms in Georgia -- in
16 Georgia.
17 A. I have reviewed the audit board fact sheets or images of
18 them from the 2020 election. I have reviewed instructions to
19 the auditors of the 2022 audit, but I haven't reviewed basic
20 poll worker instructions.
21 Q. So you didn't review instructions regarding opening and
22 closing of polls?
23 A. I believe I read some regulations regarding ballot
24 accounting, but not something that would look to me like a poll
25 worker instruction manual.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
178
1 Q. Okay. Did you review anything -- any of the required
2 signage that is -- that poll workers are required to put in
3 polling places about review your ballot?
4 A. No, sir.
5 Q. And so just to be clear, you didn't review any recap
6 sheets for BMD touch screens that poll workers are required to
7 write down the numbers at the opening and closing of the polls?
8 A. I don't recall.
9 Q. Maybe if we can show a few, and that would help see if it
10 refreshes your memory.
11 A. I don't recall whether I have seen this one before.
12 Q. Okay. This is a voting equipment exception report, and I
13 believe you testified earlier that a voter has no one to report
14 if they have a problem with the machine; is that right?
15 They have no one to cry foul to, I think, is what you
16 maybe said.
17 A. Yes, sir. I said that the voter can't prove to anyone
18 that they observed a malfunction because they are given no
19 evidence that they could present to someone else. There is
20 always going to be uncertainty as to whether the voter made a
21 mistake, the voter did observe a malfunction, or the voter is
22 right.
23 Q. But it is not your opinion that a BMD cannot -- or that
24 any voting equipment cannot be taken out of use in an election
25 in Georgia; right?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
179
1 A. There certainly is. You can take a BMD out of use. If
2 you have evidence that a BMD is malfunctioning, though, that's
3 evidence that none of it can be relied upon.
4 So simply removing the one that was identified as an
5 offender isn't really an adequate remedy. Moreover, it doesn't
6 do anything about the ballots that have already been printed
7 using that ballot-marking device, presumably, which are also --
8 Q. And just to make sure I heard you correctly, it is your
9 opinion that if there is a malfunction with one BMD, then all
10 BMDs -- then no BMD is good?
11 A. I think the presumption should be that something is wrong
12 with the software, and that absent affirmative evidence that
13 the other BMDs don't suffer from the same fault, the only safe
14 option is to assume that they have all been corrupted. They
15 are supposed to be receiving their programming from the same
16 source.
17 Q. Now, the next one is a Poll Pad recap sheet. We can just
18 kind of go through these quickly. Well, take your time with
19 it, of course.
20 But did you review any Poll Pad recap sheets?
21 A. Not to the best of my recollection.
22 Q. Do you understand what a Poll Pad recap sheet is?
23 A. Well, just looking at it, it seems to be a record of voter
24 check-ins according to the Poll Pad.
25 Q. And that is -- that is so at the end of the day, you can
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
180
1 determine whether the number of checks-in match the number of
2 ballots or ballots plus spoiled ballots; is that right?
3 A. It should make that possible. Whether these forms are
4 routinely filled in, whether those checks are routinely
5 performed, I don't know.
6 Q. It would all be part of --
7 A. But there is evidence from 2020 that there -- that there
8 is considerable uncertainty about how many pieces of paper
9 there were.
10 Q. Okay. And just flipping to the next one, now this is the
11 ballot recap sheet.
12 Do you recall seeing any ballot recap sheets in arriving
13 at your opinion?
14 A. I don't recall seeing that.
15 Q. Okay. Are you familiar with what a ballot recap sheet is?
16 A. Not prior -- I mean, I have heard of it before in Georgia.
17 I think that term is specific to Georgia. I can see what is
18 printed on this.
19 Q. You would agree that an accounting for all the ballots
20 issued, printed, cast, and spoiled in a precinct -- that would
21 be part of -- I think you call it a compliance audit maybe; is
22 that right?
23 A. Yes. It would be part of a thorough canvass and also part
24 of a compliance audit.
25 Q. The next one, this is the scanner ballot box recap form.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
181
1 Did you see a recap form --
2 THE COURT: Excuse me. Please wait a second.
3 MR. RUSSO: Yes, ma'am.
4 THE COURT: I can't hear if I am also coughing.
5 MR. RUSSO: I'm going to take that opportunity to get
6 a drink of water.
7 (There was a brief pause in the proceedings.)
8 MR. RUSSO: Are you all right, Your Honor?
9 THE COURT: Yes.
10 BY MR. RUSSO:
11 Q. Dr. Stark, take a sip of water if you need to.
12 A. Thank you.
13 Q. I hope your back is feeling better. For those of us that
14 have back issues, we all understand.
15 Now, the scanner recap sheet -- and I don't know if you've
16 responded or not, so I apologize.
17 But are you familiar with the scanner recap sheet? Did
18 you see any of those in your review of the evidence?
19 A. I don't -- I don't recall.
20 Q. And this form also provides a summary of vote counts
21 during the election; right?
22 A. It appears to, yes, sir.
23 Q. Okay. And moving on to the next one -- and this is the
24 touch screen. I think we've talked about the touch screen, or
25 have we not?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
182
1 But you're familiar with the touch screen recap and
2 understand what that is; correct?
3 A. The document looks self-explanatory. Again, I don't know
4 how routinely they are filled out or whether they are checked
5 or what they are checked against.
6 Q. It would be something that you agree should be done in a
7 compliance audit?
8 A. Yes, sir. This kind of check reporting, this kind of
9 data, and checking it against other records including physical
10 inventories of the amount of paper would be part of a thorough
11 canvass of the compliance audit.
12 Q. And that is the same whether -- where you are using touch
13 screens or hand-marked paper ballots, you think this should --
14 type of compliance audit should be done; right?
15 A. Yes, sir. Although this form says specifically touch
16 screen.
17 Q. I realize it may be a little different if it was an all
18 hand-marked.
19 Well, it may only apply to disabled voters; right?
20 A. Well, it applied to the devices, not voters.
21 Q. Good point.
22 Now, was that the last one?
23 Now, this is the chain of custody form.
24 Did you review any chain of custody forms in forming your
25 opinion?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
183
1 A. No, sir.
2 Q. Okay. Now, this is for transporting ballots to the
3 polling place; right?
4 A. It says from the polling place.
5 Q. Excuse me. From the polling place.
6 Now, you have also mentioned earlier that part of a
7 compliance audit or having a trustworthy audit trail requires
8 that voters are verified to be eligible voters and that
9 ineligible voters are not voting.
10 Is that what I heard?
11 A. Yes, sir. The word -- what we want is for the vote record
12 to be a complete record of the expressed preferences of the
13 eligible voters who voted.
14 Q. And in terms of verifying eligibility, what do you -- I
15 guess just explain that. So the noncitizens aren't voting.
16 Is that what you are referring to?
17 A. I don't know whether -- under Georgia law whether
18 noncitizens are eligible to vote in some contests or not. I
19 think it is in states where they are able to vote on some tax
20 measures.
21 Basically, the first cut is that the people who are voting
22 are registered voters. The second cut is that each registered
23 voter receives a ballot that contains exactly those contests
24 that that voter is eligible to vote in.
25 There are examples where voters have received the wrong
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
184
1 style ballot and therefore were either allowed to vote in a
2 contest they were not eligible to vote in or were precluded
3 from voting in a contest they were eligible to vote in.
4 Q. So those would be like provisional ballot voters; right?
5 A. No, sir. For example, by virtue of where I live, I am
6 eligible to vote in certain contests for mayor, for school
7 board, for tax measures, et cetera. If I received a ballot
8 that corresponded to someone who lived a couple of ZIP codes
9 over, I might not get different contests on that ballot,
10 including some I'm not eligible to vote in and exclude some I
11 am eligible to vote in.
12 Q. That is like the Nevada Sanitary District Board case that
13 you were an expert in many years ago; right?
14 A. Yes, sir.
15 Q. And in that case, there was what, about 15-vote
16 difference, if I recall, and there was --
17 A. I honestly don't remember. I'm sorry.
18 Q. I don't either.
19 You discussed earlier voter review of printed ballots.
20 Do you recall that?
21 A. I'm sorry. Say that once more.
22 Q. Voters reviewing their print ballots or just their ballot,
23 period.
24 A. Yes, sir.
25 Q. You haven't done any studies regarding whether voters who
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
185
1 mark a hand-marked paper ballot review that ballot before
2 casting it; right?
3 A. That's correct.
4 Q. Is it your opinion that when somebody completes a
5 hand-marked paper ballot, they are reviewing it as they go?
6 A. I imagine some people do and some people don't. My habit
7 is to mark a sample ballot and then mark the actual ballot when
8 I have it from the sample ballot, checking the selections
9 against my more researched sample ballot.
10 Q. So in that case, you agree with me that no matter what
11 voting system voters are using, they may or may not review
12 their ballots; right?
13 A. They may or may not make mistakes, and they may or may not
14 review their ballots.
15 Q. Sure. And then you agree mistakes can occur on all voting
16 systems, hand-marked or BMD?
17 A. Yes, sir. The fundamental difference is that with a
18 hand-marked paper ballot, it is only the voters' mistakes that
19 can cause the marks to be in the wrong place and mark the wrong
20 selection; whereas with BMD printout, misconfiguration or
21 malware or bugs can also cause that.
22 Q. Now, you talked a little bit about overvotes earlier.
23 And did you account for or have you seen any overvotes on
24 BMDs in Georgia before?
25 A. No, sir.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
186
1 Q. And did you ever review any ballots in Georgia that had
2 overvotes that were hand-marked paper ballots?
3 A. I don't recall.
4 Q. And did you review any laws in Georgia regarding whether
5 voting systems that allow for overvotes can be -- can be used?
6 A. I don't recall reading anything about that under Georgia
7 law. My understanding is that HAVA requires either overvote
8 protection of the kind I mentioned before where precinct
9 scanners spits the ballot back out. Or for centrally tabulated
10 optical scan, I think it just requires some written notice.
11 Q. Now, in the precinct scanned system you are referring to
12 that spits the ballot back out with a hand-marked paper ballot
13 that is -- I believe you said overvoted; that's right?
14 A. Yes, sir. There's -- my understanding is that that kind
15 of protection is available on all EAC-certified systems
16 starting with the VVSG 1, although I believe it can be disabled
17 and that some jurisdictions do disable it.
18 Q. Now, do you know if there's a privacy concern with that
19 function being enabled?
20 A. If someone is looking over the voter's shoulder when the
21 voter puts the ballot into the scanner, they could see it on
22 the way in. They could also see it on the way out if the
23 ballot got spit back out. But I think that is a place where
24 polling place procedures are the way to get privacy of the
25 polling booth.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
187
1 Q. So you agree that if a scanned ballot that had the
2 overvote prevention enabled -- I'm calling it the overvote
3 prevention. I'm sure there is a technical term for it, and I
4 apologize for that -- you agree that it could reveal who the
5 voter had voted for?
6 A. Honestly, I don't know whether it spits the ballot card
7 back out face-up or face-down. I think the risks are the same
8 as the risks when the voter first puts the ballot into the
9 scanner. Although I guess it would be giving the shoulder
10 surfer a second bite at the apple.
11 Q. Now, you've been engaged in promoting policy changes for
12 years now around paper ballots; isn't that right?
13 A. Yes, I think that is fair.
14 Q. And after the 2016 election, you sent, in fact, a letter
15 to Senator Lindsey Graham to try to promote more -- or fewer, I
16 should say, touch screen ballot-marking devices; correct?
17 A. I vaguely recall that, but I'm not very specific. It has
18 been eight years.
19 MR. RUSSO: Jim, could we put that letter --
20 BY MR. RUSSO:
21 Q. Maybe this will help remind you.
22 MR. RUSSO: May I approach?
23 THE COURT: Yes.
24 BY MR. RUSSO:
25 Q. Dr. Stark, this is a letter. Have you had --
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

188
1 MR. RUSSO: Well, we can scroll through it, Jim, so
2 he can see if he recognizes it.
3 BY MR. RUSSO:
4 Q. Dr. Stark, is that the letter -- you recognize that
5 letter?
6 A. Vaguely.
7 Q. Okay. This is one if we flip down, flip to the fifth
8 page, you see you have signed on there?
9 A. Yes, sir.
10 Q. And, in fact, Ms. Marks is also signed on to the letter;
11 right?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. And this letter, you agree that there needed to be
14 election systems that had some kind of a paper trail; correct?
15 A. Yes. The state of the art circa 2017 was that no one
16 really anticipated that vendors or election officials would
17 adopt universal use of ballot-marking devices. And my kind of
18 research and understanding of the vulnerabilities about
19 ballot-marking devices didn't really kick in until roughly
20 2018, and that is when I started to understand the issues
21 better.
22 Q. And -- okay. That is fair enough.
23 And you -- you and your cosigners made several suggestions
24 for mitigating cybersecurity threats, and you direct yourself
25 to the second to the last -- third-to-last page of your letter.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
189
1 It is in the appendix.
2 All right. And so here, you believe it is the one, two --
3 the second recommendation requiring paper ballots and
4 prohibiting touch screen machines from federally funded
5 equipment. And you cite to this -- you have an end note at End
6 Note 10, which is the last page.
7 Here, you make clear that you're not -- you're talking
8 about, like, the old DRE machines that have no paper trail;
9 right?
10 A. Yes. I think given the fact that that was 2017 and given
11 the context of that letter, we were probably referring to
12 paperless DREs.
13 Q. And remind me, why was there the change to, at that time,
14 only opposing paperless machines to now opposing machines that
15 provide a paper trail such as the Dominion machine?
16 A. I think it was an advance of scientific knowledge,
17 including the cyber vulnerabilities of ballot-marking devices
18 and the human factors research demonstrating that voters, by
19 and large, don't check the printout and aren't especially good
20 at noticing errors that are there.
21 Q. So science moved pretty quickly, right? That's a couple
22 of years.
23 A. It did in this instance, yes, sir.
24 Q. And do you have any indication whether science around
25 scanners is going to move this -- as quickly as this?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
190
1 A. Once again, scanners are giving a fundamentally different
2 function, and we know how to make an end run around the cyber
3 vulnerabilities of scanners to ensure that even if the scanners
4 misbehave, we still find the right winner of the election.
5 Here, you know, discovering the vulnerabilities is
6 different from saying we're assuming there is a vulnerability
7 and we have a workaround.
8 Q. Now, you don't dispute the results of the 2020 election;
9 right? I mean, that is clear?
10 A. I don't. That's correct.
11 Q. And I want to just show you what has already been marked
12 as Defendants' Trial Exhibit 67.
13 Are you familiar with this document?
14 A. It looks familiar.
15 Is that the letter I signed?
16 MR. RUSSO: Jim, if you could flip through the pages
17 so he can see. And if you flip one more, Jim. Thank you.
18 BY MR. RUSSO:
19 Q. And this looks like you signed it --
20 A. Yes, sir.
21 Q. -- along with some others.
22 And the third paragraph states, anyone asserting that the
23 U.S. election was rigged is making an extraordinary claim, one
24 that must be supported by persuasive and verifiable evidence.
25 Do you still agree with that?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
191
1 A. Yes, sir.
2 Q. And you state that merely citing -- merely citing the
3 existence of technical flaws does not establish that an attack
4 occurred, much less that it altered an election outcome. It is
5 simply speculation.
6 You still agree with that statement?
7 A. Yes, I do.
8 Q. Now, just days before this letter, you gave an interview
9 for -- I believe it is your University Berkeley research.
10 Is that an outlet you're familiar with?
11 A. Yes, sir.
12 Q. And do you recall giving an interview for an article
13 called Is Trump Right About Georgia Vote?
14 A. Yes, I do.
15 I don't recall the content, but I recall the interview.
16 Q. Okay.
17 MR. RUSSO: And, Jim, if you could put it up to
18 refresh your memory.
19 BY MR. RUSSO:
20 Q. Is this the article you remember?
21 A. Yes, sir. I don't remember the rest of the pages, though.
22 MR. RUSSO: Jim, if you could just kind of scroll
23 through it for him so he can --
24 BY MR. RUSSO:
25 Q. On the second page you state, I give it a 20 or 25 percent
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
192
1 chance that Republicans will be able to show what is, in fact,
2 true about Georgia.
3 Do you see that sentence?
4 A. Yes, sir.
5 Q. So you believe that there may be -- what were you trying
6 to say there?
7 A. It was speculating about the outcome.
8 THE COURT: I don't really think that is a fair
9 question. At least, you need to read the whole statement into
10 the record.
11 MR. RUSSO: I was trying to cut off putting in the
12 language into the record myself, which is why --
13 THE COURT: Well, that is the problem. It makes it
14 more --
15 MR. RUSSO: That's fine.
16 THE COURT: Either you can or can't ask him the full
17 question because now you have changed what -- the context.
18 That is the thing.
19 MR. RUSSO: Well, I'll move on to the next one.
20 BY MR. RUSSO:
21 Q. Mr. Stark, you stated that -- this is a paraphrase --
22 Georgia's disarray is the result of a long history of
23 shenanigans that have suppressed the Peach State's minority
24 Black vote, something that -- it appears to say Stark looked
25 into statistically after the 2018 midterm elections.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
193
1 Dr. Stark, you don't have any evidence that minority
2 voters were suppressed in the 2018 election, do you?
3 THE COURT: I'm sorry. Just wait. There is an
4 objection. Just a second.
5 MR. McGUIRE: Your Honor, I think this is beyond the
6 scope, and I am not sure what he is getting at here in terms of
7 relevance.
8 MR. RUSSO: This gets to his credibility, Your Honor.
9 He's talked about, you know, making -- that the 2020 election
10 was fine. He has talked about -- I mean, look --
11 THE COURT: I think he has been very neutral,
12 frankly, and been very credible, so I just think to go into
13 what happened in the 2018 election -- midterm election and some
14 of the statistics and a whole other inquiry is not an
15 appropriate -- doesn't necessarily indicate he is biased or not
16 biased.
17 I think he has given you very candid responses of his
18 position. So I don't think that it is fair game, and it is, in
19 fact, a waste of time.
20 If you had taken his deposition and he had advanced
21 notice that you wanted to discuss with him his assessment of
22 the 2018 midterm elections, that would be another thing. But
23 to pop it with an article that's prepared by likely a student
24 writer or somebody in media relations for the university is --
25 just doesn't make sense.

1 MR. RUSSO: I think, Your Honor, this -- one last

3 BY MR. RUSSO:
4 Q. Dr. Stark, you've never actually reviewed any -- an audit
5 that has taken place in Georgia; correct?
6 A. I have not, no. I have spoken with people who were
7 present, but (Zoom interference).
8 MR. RUSSO: Thank you. No further questions.
9 Thank you, Dr. Stark.
10 THE COURT: Thank you.
11 REDIRECT EXAMINATION
12 BY MR. MCGUIRE:
13 Q. Dr. Stark, I just wanted to clarify a couple of points
14 that came up on cross and on Mr. Oles' questioning.
15 I believe you told Mr. Russo that if one disabled voter
16 used a BMD that would render the election intrinsically
17 unauditable.
18 That seemed like a misstatement.
19 Is that what you meant?
20 A. No, sir. I think the hypothetical was that there was a
21 tied contest and some votes were cast using BMDs.
22 Q. And so --
23 A. And it is not about auditability. It is about whether any
24 audit can provide affirmative evidence that there really is a
25 tie, or if it had been a win by one vote, that the reported
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
195
1 winner really did win.
2 Q. And is your answer there to that hypothetical a function
3 of the fact that a risk-limiting audit is a hand count of a
4 sample of the paper, and if the margin is close, you have to
5 count more and more and more the closer the margin gets?
6 A. So I would almost flip it -- your statement on its head.
7 You can think of a risk-limiting audit as a full hand
8 count that stops without -- if and only if the ballots you have
9 looked at so far make it clear that it is pointless to continue
10 because completing the full hand count will just find the same
11 reported winners. So a full hand count of the paper trail that
12 isn't sufficiently trustworthy won't show -- won't necessarily
13 show who really won.
14 Or if you have a tiny margin and a bunch of the votes were
15 cast using ballot-marking devices, then you can't assume that
16 was printed on the BMD printout is what the voters expressed to
17 the machine, then you have no reason to believe that a full
18 hand count shows who really won as a moral issue.
19 As a legal issue, a state might define that full hand
20 count to be the correct answer even though, morally, there is
21 no certainty.
22 Q. And so in terms of the risk-limiting audit's ability to
23 get you to an assessment of the correctness of the election's
24 reported outcome, the more untrustworthy paper you have among
25 what you're counting, the harder it is to get to that
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
196
1 certainty?
2 A. Yes, sir.
3 Q. And is that why you said that you would -- you would want
4 to discourage people from voting by BMD if they had the option
5 to do it because that would reduce the untrustworthy paper?
6 A. Yes. At least we would know that paper record was the
7 selections of more of the voters.
8 Q. And you are not arguing that there is any problem with
9 people who need BMDs for accessibility using BMDs?
10 A. I sincerely hope that someone comes up with a better
11 solution than BMDs for voters with disabilities that preclude
12 their ability to -- from hand-marking a paper ballot because
13 BMDs have this intrinsic security gap. But for the moment, it
14 seems a well-designed BMD is the best option.
15 Q. And we talked --
16 A. I do think -- may I say --
17 Q. Of course.
18 A. I do think one thing that is missing from many BMD-based
19 system is an air-gapped independent way for voters to have
20 their printed ballots open back to them or voters with visual
21 disabilities, for example. Right now, voters have to rely on
22 the machine telling them what it claims it is going to print on
23 the paper rather than having technology read to them what
24 actually was printed on the paper.
25 Something like that could be an improvement, especially
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
197
1 with voters with disability, to make it easier or possible for
2 them to verify whether the printed selections reflect what they
3 intended. There is still a problem that voters might not do
4 that or might not do it perfectly.
5 Q. Thank you.
6 And then you talked a bit about the example of Orange
7 County as a place where every contest on every ballot was
8 audited and apparently was feasible.
9 A. No, this is not an audit that actually took place. These
10 are work load calculations done to show feasibility.
11 Q. You assessed that every contest on every ballot could have
12 been audited feasibly in a county like that?
13 A. Yes. So Orange County election staff provided us with
14 cast vote records for all of the cast ballots for 2020 general
15 election and the 2022 midterm election, so we were able to
16 figure out how many of each ballot style there were, what the
17 margins were in all of the contests that were reported, and
18 those calculations for sample size are pro forma calculations
19 on the assumption that the audit didn't uncover any
20 discrepancies between the cast vote records and the underlying
21 paper.
22 Q. Thank you.
23 And then just to wrap up, I just want to recap what audits
24 do and what they don't do.
25 Is it fair to say that audits do, when you have a
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
198
1 trustworthy paper record, tell you whether or not the reported
2 outcome of an election is correct?
3 A. If we have a trustworthy paper record, they can provide
4 affirmative evidence that the outcome is correct, but if they
5 stopped short of a full hand count, that is still just
6 statistical evidence, not proof.
7 Q. And is it your testimony that when elections are conducted
8 using a substantial number of BMDs that you cannot get a
9 successful outcome audit?
10 A. Well, if the underlying paper trail isn't trustworthy,
11 meaning that a full accurate tabulation wouldn't necessarily
12 show who won as a moral matter, then no audit can provide
13 affirmative evidence of the correctness of outcomes. The paper
14 trail can be untrustworthy for a variety of reasons. One of
15 them is substantial use of ballot-marking devices.
16 Q. And are we right to understand you as having testified
17 that as far as what audits don't do, audits don't give
18 individual voters any assurance that their votes were not
19 stolen by a hack or a misprogramming error on a machine; is
20 that right?
21 A. Risk-limiting audits do not. In fact, every single ballot
22 could have been tabulated incorrectly, but still the reported
23 winners really won.
24 I mean, I think I can give you a simple numerical example
25 if you want.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
199
1 Q. Sure. Please.
2 A. Suppose we have a two-candidate contest, Alice v. Bob, and
3 let's just suppose that a thousand votes were cast in all
4 reporting -- really 1,000 votes were cast in all. And let's
5 suppose that according to the tabulator, according to the
6 scanners, there were 400 votes for Bob, 500 votes for Alice,
7 and 100 undervotes or overvotes or non-votes. So according to
8 the scanners, Alice really won.
9 Well, suppose that in reality the 400 votes that the
10 scanner said were for Bob were really for Alice and the 100
11 undervotes were, in fact, really for Alice, and 400 of the
12 votes that were recorded as being votes for Alice were really
13 votes for Bob, and the other 100 reported were really
14 undervotes. Then Alice really won, but every ballot was
15 incorrectly tabulated.
16 MR. McGUIRE: Thank you.
17 Nothing further.
18 THE COURT: That sounds like a nightmare.
19 I had just one -- I think one question. It might
20 have a follow-up.
21 EXAMINATION
22 BY THE COURT:
23 Q. This January 13, 2017, letter to Lindsey Graham in his
24 capacity, I guess, as head of the Armed Services Committee by
25 you and many other experts in the field, I wanted just to ask
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
200
1 you about this: On Page 2, the second-to-last paragraph, there
2 is this quotation again from CIA director James Woolsey in
3 connection with the Russian hacking of the election.
4 Quote, well, the degree to which they intervened in the
5 process -- this is again from Mr. Woolsey -- is something we
6 really need to get a handle on, but at this point, it doesn't
7 look as if they were interfering with the voting, and insofar
8 as that is the case, it is a very different thing than if they
9 were hacking into the voting machines. And by the way, they
10 shouldn't be involved, period. But we have to make sure that
11 two years from now and four years from now, we are protecting
12 our voting machines, and a lot of people and counties and so
13 forth have added essentially touch screens, and you can't check
14 up on hacking with that. You have got to have some kind of
15 paper trail.
16 That is the end of his remarks that were quoted here, and
17 since those remarks were made, then also CISA was created and
18 given responsibilities also in this area.
19 But I wanted to ask you in particular about his statement
20 that he says on one, that there have been a lot of
21 jurisdictions that have added touch screens, and you can't
22 check up on hacking with that. You've got to have some kind of
23 paper trail.
24 So is the paper trail one that -- that he is thinking
25 about. I know you have a different potential perspective. But
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
201
1 when we talk about a paper trail for a -- somebody who votes
2 with a screen, what is -- is that -- what is that, typically,
3 if anything?
4 A. Your Honor, I think that he might have been referring to
5 was VVPAT with more paper rolls that have been either designed
6 into or retrofitted to some touch screen DREs. There's a fair
7 amount of evidence that voters don't check those either and
8 aren't very good at checking them when they do. It is research
9 out of Rice University going back quite a while.
10 I think that -- I can't read his mind, but I think the
11 number of people who are worried about vulnerabilities of
12 ballot-marking devices of putting technology between the voter
13 and the paper record was very small at that time. And just,
14 again, I don't think the election integrity community really
15 anticipated that states would move to universal use of
16 ballot-marking devices. In retrospect, it was a mistake not to
17 call for hand-marked paper, primarily.
18 (There was a brief pause in the proceedings.)
19 THE COURT: Thank you very much, Doctor.
20 THE WITNESS: Thank you, Your Honor. Thank you again
21 for letting me testify by video.
22 THE COURT: All right. Now I hate to say, we have
23 one counsel who -- from the plaintiffs' side who is independent
24 and has his own questions, so I think I need to know -- I'm
25 going to follow the same rule I did before, if that is what
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

2 additional questions or not?
3 MR. OLES: Oh, for Dr. Stark?
4 THE COURT: Yes.
5 MR. OLES: No.
6 THE COURT: Very good. Then we're through. Thank
7 you very much, sir. And we're sorry for keeping you on hold,
8 and good luck on your recovery as well. You look --
9 THE WITNESS: Thank you so much.
10 THE COURT: You look very erect, so you may be
11 holding yourself in the best way possible.
12 THE WITNESS: I have my prosthesis cummerbund going

14 THE COURT: Thank you.
15 All right. Are there any other witnesses the
16 plaintiffs intend to present?
17 MR. CROSS: No further live witnesses.
18 MR. BROWN: Right.
19 MR. CROSS: No further live witnesses, Your Honor.
20 We do have deposition designations in hard copy that we're
21 going to tender. I know there has been some discussion between
22 the parties on that. Our plan was to play some short video
23 clips for the Court from some of those, just because we think
24 it would help the Court to get a sense of credibility from some
25 of these people. I think they run anywhere from about five or
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
203
1 six minutes to the longest is maybe 15, so they will -- they
2 won't take that long, I think.
3 THE COURT: How long collectively, just so I can --
4 MR. CROSS: A little over an hour.
5 MR. SCHEINMAN: About an hour, 20.
6 MR. CROSS: The last pieces of our case, I think,
7 are -- Your Honor, with the deposition designations, there are
8 some exhibits. It sounds like there may be only a few that
9 there are objections on, so we'll have to resolve that.
10 I know that there are some exhibits Your Honor took
11 in and was pending ruling on, so there is handful of those that
12 are outstanding.
13 THE COURT: Would you mind identifying what those are
14 so we can pull them up?
15 MR. CROSS: I don't have a list for that yet. We're
16 going to pull that together for the Court. There is a motion
17 that we filed today for Fifth Amendment inferences. We can
18 address that whenever the Court wants.
19 THE COURT: Well, I haven't read it yet.
20 MR. CROSS: Obviously. Yeah, I was just flagging it
21 for you because these are last pieces in our case.
22 And, of course, the last piece that also bears on the
23 merits of the case is the issues percolating with
24 Mr. Persinger, and we're prepared to address that today as
25 well.

6 MR. TYSON: She is, Your Honor.
7 THE COURT: Let's go ahead with Ms. Johnston since
8 she is here in person.
9 MR. BELINFANTE: Your Honor, while that takes place,
10 given what we've heard they're still to do, is it okay with the
11 Court if we send Mr. Germany home today given that it is 4:30?
12 THE COURT: Was he your first witness?
13 MR. BELINFANTE: Yes.
14 THE COURT: It seems like that is so, yeah.
15 MR. BELINFANTE: Thank you.
16 THE COURT: You are still under oath. Thank you for
17 coming back. Have a seat.
18 I understand from counsel that there was some -- from
19 defense counsel that you were concerned about one of your
20 responses.
21 THE WITNESS: Yes.
22 THE COURT: All right. I'm going to let Mr. Oles,
23 who called you, come up so that --
24 MR. OLES: We had time to make copies.
25 Whereupon,

2 after having been previously duly sworn, testified as
3 follows:
4 RECROSS-EXAMINATION
5 BY MR. OLES:
6 Q. Good afternoon, Ms. Johnston.
7 A. Good afternoon.
8 THE COURT: Sir, do you know what question she --
9 have you been advised as to what matter the witness wishes to
10 testify about again?
11 MR. OLES: I should have.
12 THE COURT: Yeah. Because we're not going to jump
13 into a whole new wave of questions. I just want -- I don't
14 know that we know what her concern is at all. So we'll find
15 out.
16 THE WITNESS: Thank you.
17 BY MR. OLES:
18 Q. Ms. Johnston --
19 THE COURT: Doctor.
20 BY MR. OLES:
21 Q. -- I understand through counsel that since you were
22 here -- you were here the other day testifying and we had
23 questioned you about one or more matters before the State
24 Election Board that you have had some additional recollection
25 about those matters.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
206
1 A. Yes.
2 Q. Okay. And is there a specific case or matter that you're
3 referring to?
4 A. Correct. There is.
5 Q. Okay. And would that be -- would that be the complaint
6 filed by David Cross and Kevin Moncla?
7 A. They have filed several complaints. You'll need to be
8 specific.
9 Q. Okay. This is numbered SEB 2022-348 and has to do with QR
10 code signature mismatch.
11 A. Correct. That's the case.
12 Q. All right. Thank you.
13 MR. OLES: May I approach, Judge?
14 THE COURT: Yes.
15 BY MR. OLES:
16 Q. What I have set before you as Davis Exhibit 10, which I
17 will represent -- well, the other day I asked you if you could
18 identify the document.
19 Would you go ahead and take another look at it, and I'll
20 ask you the same question.
21 A. Thank you. All 196 pages.
22 Q. Yes.
23 THE COURT: But a lot of it is printouts.
24 MR. OLES: Right. I think it is only 30 pages of
25 actual letter.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
207
1 THE COURT: Is this the document you had a concern
2 about?
3 THE WITNESS: Yes, it is.
4 THE COURT: And do you know what you were concerned
5 about here?
6 THE WITNESS: My concern was I did not know I would
7 be asked about this case. And although I had seen this
8 document approximately 15 months ago as an attachment to an
9 email, I did not -- from that point, I did not know this was
10 actually filed as a complaint. It was sent to me as a
11 complaint, but that does not equate to a formal complaint being
12 submitted to the State Election Board. But it was. And
13 apparently, a case number was assigned, the case number you
14 just mentioned, Mr. Oles.
15 And the case was then scheduled to be presented to --
16 for a hearing by the State Election Board last month.
17 BY MR. OLES:
18 Q. All right. Well, let me ask you, Ms. Johnston --
19 THE COURT: Was it heard last month?
20 THE WITNESS: Beg your pardon?
21 THE COURT: Was it heard last month?
22 THE WITNESS: No. It was continued because
23 Mr. Barnes from the Secretary of State did not appear to answer
24 technical questions.
25 THE COURT: Okay. Thank you.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
208
1 BY MR. OLES:
2 Q. Ms. Johnston, now we're here before Judge Totenberg
3 because questions have been raised by the plaintiffs concerning
4 the ballot-marking device that produces a QR code and its
5 process. And, of course, they are asking the judge to grant
6 certain -- to find that the process is unconstitutional.
7 And I'm not trying to burden you with the legalisms, but
8 this complaint that came before the State Election Board, this
9 involves issues regarding the QR codes?
10 A. Yes, it does.
11 Q. Okay. And have you -- you have familiarized yourself with
12 this complaint?
13 A. Yes, I have.
14 Q. Okay. Could you explain for the judge what your
15 understanding is then of the claims that are being raised with
16 the QR code process and the ballot-marking device.
17 A. So in the complaint, the allegation is there is an anomaly
18 that complainants think they have -- have found between the
19 scanning and tabulating of QR codes.
20 Q. Has the State Election Board taken an initial evaluation
21 of this about whether to then go ahead and investigate it?
22 A. The case has not been presented yet, so --
23 Q. Okay. So am I correct then that no real investigation has
24 yet been conducted on it?
25 A. The Secretary of State investigators are responsible for
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
209
1 the investigation, and they will report their findings at the
2 State Election Board meeting.
3 Q. Okay. And do you know when you expect that to be?
4 A. Well, it was scheduled for last month, and it was
5 continued, so I think it will be determined when Mr. Barnes
6 could be present for the hearing.
7 Q. Okay. Now -- and you've been how long on the State
8 Election Board?
9 A. Three months shy of two years.
10 Q. All right. And during that time, have you had occasion to
11 review and participate in board deliberations on complaints
12 similar to this; not necessarily the same subject matter, but
13 complaints about election processes in general?
14 A. Yes, on many cases, but not concerning this particular
15 complaint.
16 Q. Okay. In your -- and in your review of this particular
17 complaint, do you have any reason to believe that this is not a
18 serious complaint?
19 A. I don't think it would be appropriate for me to reason.
20 MR. CROSS: Could we get the relevance. We're
21 burning a lot of time.
22 THE COURT: I'm going to allow him to ask the
23 question.
24 MR. CROSS: Okay. Thank you.
25 THE WITNESS: So in my role as a State Election Board
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
210
1 member, I feel it is important to be impartial until the
2 evidence is presented by the investigators and I have an -- and
3 we all have an opportunity to ask questions.
4 BY MR. OLES:
5 Q. And as you understand this complaint, the allegations are
6 that this QR code -- what I'll call mismatch, as it is
7 described in here -- is responsible for rejecting many ballots?
8 A. It is unclear to me in the complaint exactly how many
9 ballots, if any, are affected.
10 Q. Okay. In comparison to the complaints that the board may
11 typically receive, is this particular complaint -- can you
12 comment about whether or not this one is -- appears to be
13 well-researched or what -- I don't know myself the character
14 and the nature of the complaints that come before the board.
15 But does this one appear to be well-researched to you?
16 MR. MILLER: Your Honor, I just note an objection
17 here. Dr. Johnston just testified earlier that she's not a
18 typical recipient of complaints. She may receive an email, but
19 that does not a complaint make.
20 Mr. Oles is now asking her to compare it to the
21 incoming complaints she doesn't necessarily see and evaluate
22 until the investigative report is presented.
23 THE COURT: Are you able to answer the question or
24 not?
25 THE WITNESS: Ask that question again, please.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
211
1 THE COURT: His question was simply, how does this
2 compare to other complaints you see? Is it more
3 well-researched and prepared or not, or are you not able to
4 make a judgment like that?
5 THE WITNESS: I don't think I can make a fair
6 judgment at this time. It is certainly a 196-page complaint.
7 But I don't think I can make that judgment.
8 BY MR. OLES:
9 Q. All right. And as we sit here today, you're not able to
10 say whether or not the contentions that are made with regard to
11 this QR code mismatch is present in Georgia's system?
12 A. It is only fair to say that I have questions that I would
13 like to ask at the time of the State Election Board meeting,
14 and I would prefer not to provide any opinion at this point
15 because I haven't heard the full report of the investigators.
16 Q. Okay. Is it your understanding, Dr. Johnston, that this
17 is a problem that has been reported in other states that also
18 use the Dominion Democracy Suite 5.5 system?
19 THE COURT: I think that you're going beyond what --
20 the witness had asked to return because she felt like she had
21 mis-answered something, but the question you're now asking is
22 something different, what she knew about other jurisdictions.
23 BY MR. OLES:
24 Q. Okay. Ms. Johnston, is there anything else that you would
25 like to clarify for the Court about this particular complaint?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
212
1 A. No. I appreciate being able to return and to confirm that
2 this indeed is the report that you were asking me about.
3 Q. Thank you.
4 MR. OLES: That is all I have, Judge.
5 THE COURT: Thank you very much, Doctor.
6 MR. MILLER: Your Honor, just for clarity, has the
7 exhibit been admitted into the record?
8 MR. OLES: Yes.
9 THE COURT: Are you offering the exhibit into
10 evidence?
11 MR. OLES: We would move to admit Davis 10 into the
12 record.
13 MR. MILLER: Our only objection would be hearsay as
14 to the truth of the substance. If the -- I'm not really sure
15 what other purpose there is. But as to the substance of the
16 allegations, it is still hearsay.
17 THE COURT: Well, it is not being admitted for the
18 truth. I think he's basically -- what I understood was counsel
19 wanted to introduce it for purposes of saying -- showing that
20 there have been complaints dating back to this time, and this
21 was, from his view or his client's view, a serious complaint.
22 MR. MILLER: That's fine, Your Honor.
23 MR. CROSS: Your Honor, could I just note for the
24 record our relevance objection. We defer to Your Honor as to
25 what you do with it.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
213
1 THE COURT: Yeah, well, I understand that. And, you
2 know, I've tried to balance the fact that we have new counsel.
3 And if he feels that this is relevant in some way -- I'm not
4 sure it is, but it is at least closer than some other things
5 offered, so --
6 MR. MILLER: Your Honor, if I may, I have just two
7 brief questions.
8 THE COURT: But it clearly doesn't -- at this
9 juncture, all of the information is -- are the complainants'
10 perspective.
11 All right. Go ahead.
12 REDIRECT EXAMINATION
13 BY MR. MILLER:
14 Q. Hi, Dr. Johnston. Good afternoon.
15 A. Good afternoon.
16 Q. You're the exception for a witness that asked to come
17 back, but good to see you.
18 A. I really wanted to know if the baby was delivered.
19 THE COURT: Waiting for you to be available to them.
20 They had to recall the doctor and then he --
21 MR. MILLER: You'll have to fly to Michigan now.
22 THE COURT: We've got an ideal doctor for you.
23 BY MR. MILLER:
24 Q. Dr. Johnston, just a brief -- do you still have the Davis
25 exhibit there in front of you?
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
214
1 A. Yes.
2 Q. This may be somewhat difficult, but if you wouldn't mind
3 flipping with me to Exhibit E that is attached in support of
4 this complaint.
5 THE COURT: How far back is that?
6 MR. MILLER: The total document isn't numbered, but
7 it is probably a little over three-quarters of the way through.
8 There are actually two pages back-to-back. It says Exhibit E,
9 and then it says Exhibit B. At the top, it says
10 Document 1071-2.
11 THE COURT: So it is Ms. Marks' affidavit that you're
12 asking about?
13 MR. MILLER: Yes, Your Honor.
14 If you'll just turn maybe one or two more pages.
15 THE COURT: Are you able to find it?
16 THE WITNESS: Yes.
17 BY MR. MILLER:
18 Q. And just for clarity of the record here with this exhibit,
19 this is the supplemental declaration of Marilyn Marks attached
20 to this document; right?
21 A. Yes, it is.
22 Q. Okay. And at the top, you see this is a document that was
23 originally submitted in the case Curling v. Raffensperger,
24 Civil Action Number 1:17-CV-2989; correct?
25 A. Correct.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
215
1 Q. Okay.
2 MR. MILLER: Thank you, Your Honor. No further
3 questions.
4 THE COURT: May I excuse this witness?
5 MR. BROWN: No questions, Your Honor.
6 THE COURT: All right. I just will clarify for the
7 record, I'm not introducing this for the truth of the
8 information contained, but the fact that it was written in the
9 nature of the complaint written and sent to the board.
10 Okay. Well, you are excused. You can give -- just
11 leave it and we'll take it. Thank you so much for coming
12 back --
13 THE WITNESS: Thank you.
14 THE COURT: -- and your great good humor and patience
15 with us too. Thank you.
16 All right. So we have movie time now or something
17 else?
18 MR. CROSS: I was going to give Mr. Tyson a moment.
19 THE COURT: Okay. If it is movie time, have you
20 arranged for the popcorn?
21 MR. CROSS: Sadly, no.
22 I guess -- so I'll raise it as a question for Your
23 Honor as to how you want to proceed. The Persinger issue is
24 one that we would think is important to get to. It sounds like
25 Mr. Tyson would like to do the same. I think we could probably
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
216
1 get that done before the end of the day if we want to do that
2 now. Then we can start the day tomorrow with the videos and
3 then they pick up their case, or we can start the videos.
4 MR. TYSON: Your Honor, I think the only hesitancy
5 would be my understanding is that issue needs to be part of the
6 sealed proceeding, not in open court, which I know would
7 require additional logistics.
8 MR. CROSS: We actually don't -- oh, I'm sorry.
9 MR. TYSON: Given that -- I mean, if it is an hour
10 and 20 minutes of video, it just seems like starting that now
11 takes us to past 6:00.
12 MR. CROSS: I was just going to say, Your Honor, I
13 don't think we need to seal the courtroom, and our strong
14 preference would be that we don't. Given the nature of the
15 issue, given that it bears very heavily on the merits, we're
16 prepared to address it in a way that doesn't require sealing.
17 The only thing that is not public is the source code
18 itself. There is no need to discuss the source code itself,
19 and so we would prefer that this be on the record -- I'm sorry.
20 Not be sealed. Obviously, it will be on the record.
21 MR. TYSON: Your Honor, I just -- given how
22 restrictive the conversation has been on this, only -- I mean,
23 none of the rest of our team is even aware of the allegations
24 that Mr. Cross made yesterday morning besides me and Mr. Russo.
25 So at this point, I think either we need permission
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
217
1 to share that with our entire team if we're going to conduct in
2 this open court and let everybody be part of this, or we need
3 to continue with the process we have been following. But we
4 can't have a situation where we're limited to two members of
5 our team who know this and all of a sudden now we're going to
6 have a debate in open court.
7 THE COURT: Well, I understand, Mr. Cross, your
8 concerns for getting it taken care of. But frankly, it is ten
9 of 5:00, and you might have a brain-dead judge if you have --
10 this is complicated stuff.
11 MR. CROSS: Sure.
12 THE COURT: Very intense. I was already bombarded
13 all weekend by the intensity of the communications. I think I
14 will do a better job if I do it tomorrow morning --
15 MR. CROSS: That's totally fine, Your Honor.
16 THE COURT: -- and I get prepared with my group
17 tonight so that I make sure that I'm at my best.
18 MR. CROSS: That's totally fine, Your Honor.
19 And I apologize if there was some confusion. My
20 recollection was that there were a lot of folks on the email
21 that went to the Court, not just Mr. Russo and --
22 MR. TYSON: No. It was just the two individuals who
23 were permitted to have access to all the sealed proceedings.
24 And we haven't shared it because that was the responsibility we
25 had.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
218
1 MR. CROSS: Then that is my apology. I didn't
2 realize it was the only two of them on it. We didn't mean for
3 that to be limited. Sorry about that.
4 THE COURT: So I would like to do it tomorrow morning
5 then, or, you know, if you --
6 MR. CROSS: That's totally fine. It sounded like
7 they have a preference. We're happy to do it whenever it works
8 for the Court.
9 MR. TYSON: We'll do it whenever it works for the
10 Court, Your Honor. I would request permission, though, if I
11 could share the email with the rest of the team in anticipation
12 of tomorrow.
13 MR. CROSS: Absolutely. Yeah.
14 We did not consider that email to be sensitive, and
15 again, I apologize that --
16 THE COURT: The only question is, is are you thinking
17 that it is beyond -- the concerns are beyond the letter? I
18 mean, it is just like if you -- you-all need to talk about it.
19 I'll go along with anything you want to do that you agree on.
20 It is such a pleasure whenever there is agreement.
21 So I think you should talk about it so that there is
22 no misunderstanding and no fury about it so that we understand,
23 are some people there for the whole hearing, are they there for
24 part of the hearing, what is going on?
25 It is something you should discuss.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
219
1 MR. CROSS: We'll do that.
2 MR. TYSON: Thank you, Your Honor.
3 MR. CROSS: If we want to do the videos, Your Honor,
4 one upside to that is I understand it -- and Shannon will tell
5 me if I'm wrong -- I don't think she has to transcribe that
6 because you have the transcripts.
7 THE COURT: Right. Doesn't transcribe.
8 MR. CROSS: So at least she won't have to --
9 THE COURT: Only Judge Duffey's court reporter
10 transcribes them.
11 MR. CROSS: Fortunately, no one is calling
12 Judge Duffey, so I think we'll be all right.
13 THE COURT: No one likes working for me either
14 because I work too late.
15 MR. MILLER: Judge, could I raise one minor thing?
16 And I will be simpler than the other issue, and I won't take an
17 hour and 20 minutes either.
18 But yesterday, the national -- or not yesterday.
19 Friday, the National Academies report, excerpts of it were
20 admitted. We had moved under completeness -- you asked us to
21 just provide the full copy. This is one full copy of it. It
22 is quite long. It is already on the docket. But we can email
23 that to your staff as well.
24 THE COURT: Okay. Have you-all looked at it?
25 MR. MILLER: And I should note this is Defendants'
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
220
1 Exhibit 728. It is just the full report of the excerpts that
2 y'all had provided.
3 THE COURT: Okay. Thank you.
4 MR. CROSS: Yeah, I think we -- there may be some
5 hearsay aspects or whatever, Your Honor. We don't have an
6 objection to it. We defer to Your Honor to give it whatever
7 weight you think it warrants.
8 THE COURT: All right. Well, Shannon, can you -- can
9 I release you without there being any trouble?
10 MR. CROSS: The only reason you might want her to
11 stay is because we will introduce each video, and so that
12 probably should be on the record.
13 THE COURT: I tell you what. We're going to go at
14 least until 5:30. I am not promising anything else beyond that
15 as a matter of taking care of everybody here because it doesn't
16 look very hopeful for us finishing this week anyway.
17 So I'm going to have a restroom break in
18 five minutes. We'll start at 5:00.
19 All right. And you have something?
20 MR. BELINFANTE: I had a housekeeping thing that was
21 just going to go on the record pretty quickly, but I can do it
22 after.
23 THE COURT: That's fine. Do you have a broom also?
24 What is the housekeeping matter?
25 MR. BELINFANTE: For one of our witnesses perhaps
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
221
1 tomorrow, hopefully tomorrow, Blake Evans, we were going to try
2 to produce official election results from 2020's general
3 election and 2022's general election. I have the documents
4 here. Most cases, we have done it by official notice. I just
5 wanted to -- because I know that you need to provide notice to
6 the other side of doing so, so I wanted to do that in open
7 court now.
8 They are -- I have the documents, which I will share.
9 They are from the Secretary of State's website.
10 THE COURT: Okay. You-all need to see them?
11 MR. CROSS: Yeah, I think we want to look at them.
12 Sure.
13 THE COURT: Okay. Great. Okay. We'll come back in
14 five minutes.
15 (A brief break was taken at 4:58 PM.)
16 MR. TYSON: So, Your Honor, before we start back, I
17 just wanted to report a rare moment of agreement in the case.
18 THE COURT: Oh, my gosh.
19 MR. TYSON: Mr. Cross and I have agreed that we can
20 share his email from yesterday morning with our team, and
21 further, that he is also okay with me and Mr. Russo sharing
22 with our team the things Mr. Persinger talked about on the
23 stand here as part of preparing a response to that, so I just
24 wanted to put that on the record.
25 We're having a discussion about a need for continued
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
222
1 sealing of those transcripts as well and whether we can reach
2 an agreement on that. We'll report back soon.
3 THE COURT: Okay. Does that extend to the -- his
4 translation of his notes?
5 MR. TYSON: And, Your Honor, the notes themselves and
6 the translation of the notes would not be shared with the
7 remainder of the team.
8 THE COURT: All right. Well, what would be useful
9 for me is -- in the end, is if you identify what items you
10 don't think are public or shouldn't be -- I don't want to have
11 any disagreement later on and getting 9:00 emails about, we
12 didn't mean that.
13 MR. CROSS: What we had talked about, Your Honor,
14 we're going back through the sealed transcripts. Our team and
15 Dr. Halderman -- I think there is very little and maybe nothing
16 that actually needs to be sealed once we go through that. But
17 I told Bryan we would -- if there is anything, we would suggest
18 some modest redactions, they can look at it, and hopefully
19 everybody just agrees this small portion gets sealed and
20 everything else becomes unsealed.
21 THE COURT: Would it still be an ex parte hearing in
22 terms of the public or not?
23 MR. CROSS: You mean what is coming up or what is
24 already done?
25 THE COURT: No, what you are about to -- the hearing
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
223
1 you want about this matter.
2 MR. CROSS: Our expectation from what we're going to
3 discuss is it does not need to be sealed. If for some reason
4 we veer there, we can pause and get to it. We're not going to
5 discuss the contents of source code, and that is the only thing
6 that we think needs to be sealed.
7 MR. TYSON: And for us, Your Honor, the only concern
8 is that since we've had kind of extensive sealed proceedings,
9 proceeding in open court before all that is open, I think,
10 would be a problem.
11 In addition, I don't yet know -- I need to talk with
12 our team about -- I mean, if there is anything else we need to
13 discuss about what was said in those proceedings. I don't
14 think we're going to need to reveal -- we won't reveal source
15 code, which is the main issue, but just the fact that -- I
16 don't want us to have a half-sealed/half-unsealed proceeding.
17 THE COURT: Well, you-all can talk about it further,
18 it sounds like. Please do.
19 MR. TYSON: Thank you, Your Honor.
20 THE COURT: So that there is some clarity and we're
21 not worrying about that. Whatever you do, do not write me
22 letters tonight.
23 MR. TYSON: Absolutely. Thank you, Your Honor.
24 THE COURT: Thank you.
25 MR. CROSS: Your Honor, would it help if you have a
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
224
1 courtesy copy of our Fifth Amendment filing?
2 THE COURT: Sure.
3 MR. SCHEINMAN: Would Your Honor also like a copy of
4 the clips that we're about to play? We have excerpts if
5 anybody would like to follow along.
6 THE COURT: Sure. Why not.
7 MR. MILLER: And, Your Honor, if I may, on the Fifth
8 Amendment filing, we saw it come in while we were in here with
9 you.
10 I think at this juncture, we don't necessarily intend
11 to respond in writing rather than rest on what we have already
12 briefed in the motion in limine. We would like to have the
13 opportunity to present short argument to you tomorrow. But
14 regarding substantively, I think you've got a lot of paper up
15 there on the desk.
16 THE COURT: Really? Okay. Thank you.
17 MR. SCHEINMAN: Thank you, Your Honor. At this time,
18 plaintiffs would like to introduce an excerpt from the
19 deposition of Misty Hampton. This was taken on the 11th of
20 November, 2022.
21 And for those following along in the clip book, this
22 is Tab Number 5.
23 MR. BEDARD: And, Your Honor, for agreement with the
24 plaintiffs' side for these deposition designations --
25 (There was a brief pause in the proceedings.)
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

1 MR. BEDARD: Thank you.
2 I was just saying, Your Honor, that per agreement
3 with the plaintiffs' side for these deposition designations, we
4 do have objections to some of these -- to some of the
5 questions. They are included in a list, I believe, that has
6 maybe already been provided to Your Honor. We are fine with
7 Your Honor making rulings on those at her convenience rather
8 than now in open court.
9 THE COURT: All right. Thank you.
10 (The videotaped deposition clip of MISTY
11 HAMPTON was played.)
12 THE COURT: What was the date of the deposition?
13 MR. SCHEINMAN: Your Honor, I have that marked as
14 November 11, 2022.
15 For our next clip, we would like to introduce the
16 deposition of --
17 THE COURT: I'm sorry. Who were the counsel present?
18 MR. SCHEINMAN: We can --
19 MR. CROSS: Bruce Brown was doing most of the
20 questioning. The woman at the end was Hannah Elson, a lawyer
21 at MoFo.
22 Then I'm not sure who else, Bruce.
23 But that is who was questioning.
24 THE COURT: Okay. Thank you.
25 MR. SCHEINMAN: For our next clip, we would like to
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
226
1 present the deposition of Eric Chaney. This was taken on
2 August 16, 2022, and that is Tab 2 in your binder.
3 MR. CROSS: I took this one, Your Honor. So it will
4 be me.
5 MR. BEDARD: I'm not sure if I was clear on this
6 first one. But for all of these deposition designations, our
7 objections have been submitted to you and they are there for
8 you to rule on at your convenience.
9 (The videotaped deposition clip of ERIC CHANEY
10 was played.)
11 THE COURT: You have one other short one? Because
12 I'm going to end after that.
13 MR. SCHEINMAN: Your Honor, we would next to like to
14 introduce the excerpt from the deposition of Ben Cotton. This
15 was taken on August 25th, 2022.
16 THE COURT: What number is it?
17 MR. SCHEINMAN: It would be Tab Number 3 in your
18 binder, Your Honor.
19 THE COURT: Okay.
20 MR. SCHEINMAN: I'll look up the counsel.
21 MS. KAISER: Your Honor, it was me, Mary Kaiser,
22 asking questions.
23 (The videotaped deposition clip of BEN COTTON
24 was played.)
25 THE COURT: Is there any other one that is really
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
227
1 short?
2 MR. SCHEINMAN: Your Honor, our next shortest is over
3 five minutes long.
4 THE COURT: Let's end now.
5 While you were talking before about what you would
6 agree to make -- not claim to be -- or that you thought was
7 proper to be in the public record or not, I'm basically --
8 given all that has happened, anything that was previously
9 sealed, until I say so, it is going to still be treated as
10 sealed and then -- so that I can properly look at it all
11 together.
12 So don't treat anything that you have suddenly
13 incidentally have said, oh, it is really okay to unseal it.
14 I would like at this juncture, after all I have seen,
15 to be cautious as we proceed.
16 MR. CROSS: Again, Your Honor, the idea was to get
17 you a proposal on what we would redact. Certainly, we were not
18 intending to make our own decision.
19 THE COURT: That's fine, and I would be very happy to
20 see the proposal. But since I don't have it at this point, I'm
21 not prepared to act precipitously.
22 All right. So you are going to finish reading these
23 tomorrow morning -- having these played?
24 MR. CROSS: Yes, Your Honor.
25 THE COURT: Then you want to have a hearing -- the
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
228
1 hearing that you're talking about?
2 MR. CROSS: I think that probably makes sense on
3 timing.
4 THE COURT: I mean, the only thing about it that I
5 would say is there is a public that is interested in hearing
6 these tapes, and so it sort of jacks them around.
7 MR. CROSS: Why don't we start with Persinger and
8 then --
9 THE COURT: That's what would make more sense to me,
10 so that they can come at whatever hour they deem fit.
11 But you said the rest of -- do you have any estimate
12 at all about -- collectively about how long the hearing would
13 take?
14 MR. TYSON: I don't, Your Honor. We do want to
15 respond in detail to the allegations from the emails, and I'm
16 thinking that's going to take a little while, 30, 45 minutes
17 probably, to walk through each allegation. It may take less
18 than that. But just probably budgeting that is reasonable.
19 THE COURT: And you want to do it in the morning
20 rather than the evening, I gather -- rather than late in the
21 evening, I gather?
22 MR. CROSS: We have no preference.
23 MR. TYSON: And we will do whatever would work for
24 the Court, Your Honor.
25 One thing, I guess, just trying to think about
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
229
1 sequencing tomorrow, we obviously had witnesses here per the
2 Court's email from yesterday to us to make sure we are ready to
3 go. But it sounds like we have maybe close to an hour of
4 videos, we have the issues of Mr. Persinger, we have exhibits
5 to go through, we have argument on the adverse inference
6 motion. And I think all that has to happen before the
7 plaintiffs -- I mean, not the Persinger piece, but the rest of
8 it has to happen before the plaintiffs can rest, I believe.
9 So just in terms -- and then as soon as they rest,
10 not a secret, we're planning to move under Rule 52(c). I
11 figure we'll have a brief argument on that.
12 Just in terms of sequencing, I'm just trying to think
13 when we should have people here tomorrow, I guess, is what I'm
14 trying --
15 THE COURT: That's what I'm thinking about. Let me
16 just say, in terms of brief argument, I'm not going to allow
17 more than 10 to 15 minutes on either side. I think ten really
18 would be sufficient, given my understanding of the case.
19 But if you bleed over toward a little bit, I'll live
20 with it, but -- let me talk to my crew and see what they --
21 since we have to prepare for it too. If you can just hold a
22 moment.
23 (There was a brief pause in the proceedings.)
24 THE COURT: My view is we should do this at like
25 4:00 if you think an hour, hour and a half is enough tomorrow.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
230
1 That way, anyone who -- we get all the -- I get to look at
2 everything. I'm going to talk to you tonight after I excuse
3 them -- public about making sure I understand which items you
4 want to be discussed.
5 But it seemed like there were enough that it would be
6 better to do it at the end of the day with people who are here
7 to get to hear most of the hearing up until that point.
8 So in other words, is there about an hour left of the
9 show-and-tell with the depositions or an hour and --
10 MR. SCHEINMAN: I did the math. It's a little --
11 around 53 minutes.
12 THE COURT: Okay. And then after that, the
13 plaintiffs closing their case except for reference to anything
14 that might come up during the hearing at 4:00?
15 MR. CROSS: Yeah. I think the only thing left would
16 be exhibits with the deposition designations. So those will go
17 in, and then the Fifth Amendment piece.
18 THE COURT: All right. Is the Fifth Amendment
19 piece -- because I haven't looked at it -- is that in the -- is
20 that something that you wanted to deal with at 4:00 or
21 beforehand?
22 Because I don't know what is in it, so I'm sorry.
23 MR. CROSS: We're happy to deal with that whenever it
24 works for the Court. There is no urgency on that.
25 THE COURT: Is that something you're trying to deal
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
231
1 with, though, before you close your case?
2 MR. CROSS: Yes. It will certainly bear on the
3 closing of the case.
4 THE COURT: All right. We'll deal with it in --
5 then, and then I don't know how long that will take, but I
6 think you can -- seems like if we start at 9:30, you should be
7 able to have a witness -- at least one or two witnesses. It
8 depends on who you call as your first witness.
9 MR. TYSON: Certainly, Your Honor.
10 THE COURT: If Ryan Germany was the first witness, he
11 will probably take up all the time.
12 MR. TYSON: That helps, Your Honor.
13 So we'll plan, I guess, lunchtime probably to have
14 folks arrive, if that works.
15 THE COURT: You don't think you're going to get to
16 Ryan Germany beforehand? I mean, if we have 9:30 to 10:30,
17 roughly, we're going to have the rest of the video show. And
18 10:30 to -- then you want to deal with your motion?
19 MR. TYSON: Well, I guess, Your Honor, I was thinking
20 then, you know, 10:30 --
21 THE COURT: We'll deal with your proffer on the -- on
22 the Fifth Amendment, whatever it is. And then --
23 MR. TYSON: The exhibits as well. Then our -- then
24 plaintiffs rest, our 52(c) motion, which is why I was thinking
25 that would get us to noon, just logistically.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
232
1 But we can have Mr. Germany here or whoever else here
2 earlier if that is -- if we want to just be ready just in case.
3 THE COURT: If you think the exhibits -- do I need to
4 be here or are you working this out with your -- you have all
5 worked this out? I mean, I guess that is the question.
6 MR. CROSS: Sure. We can work it out. Like we said
7 before, as long as somebody can get here in half an hour or to
8 an hour, there is no reason for anybody to sit here.
9 THE COURT: Well, Ryan Germany, is he working from
10 home or working from --
11 MR. TYSON: I believe he is working nearby, Your
12 Honor, but he does have other employment, obviously, now as a
13 practicing lawyer, so --
14 THE COURT: Why don't you just have him on call and
15 let him know at 11:00 where you are at?
16 MR. TYSON: Thank you, Your Honor. We'll do that.
17 THE COURT: A little bit before 11:00, we'll see
18 where we're at, because if you worked out the -- I mean,
19 normally people work out the documents with Harry beforehand,
20 frankly.
21 So have you-all not sorted all of this out?
22 Because he is here at 9:00.
23 MR. MILLER: To be clear, there are two layers of
24 documents here. The first layer is what they are submitting
25 with the deposition excerpts where there were some objections.
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
OFFICIAL CERTIFIED TRANSCRIPT
233
1 THE COURT: I see.
2 MR. MILLER: It will probably be dealt with pretty
3 quickly.
4 THE COURT: All right.
5 MR. MILLER: I think our respective paralegals were
6 actually just comparing notes on the exhibits with Mr. Martin
7 just a moment ago.
8 THE COURT: All right.
9 MR. MILLER: Hopefully, that will go quickly.
10 THE COURT: We'll see. And then you'll just have
11 your witness on call.
12 All right. All right. Ladies and gentlemen, thank
13 you very much for your patience, and we'll see everyone who
14 desires to be here at 9:30. Maybe I'll stay home.
