On today’s BradCast<\/i><\/a>: Who ordered the state of Georgia’s election server to be completely destroyed amidst a federal lawsuit filed in July? And working to mitigate the “clear and present danger” President Donald J. Trump poses to the nation and the world. [Audio link follows below.<\/i>]\n

First up today, a number of follow-up details, for now, on the story we reported yesterday in depth<\/a> about the state election server computer that was mysteriously “wiped clean” in Georgia, just after a lawsuit was filed questioning whether results were electronically manipulated in some fashion during last year’s Presidential election and this year’s U.S. House Special Election in the state’s 6th Congressional District.<\/p>\n

Both contests were run on Georgia’s easily-hacked, 100% unverifiable Diebold touch-screen systems and computer tabulators, and programmed by Kennesaw State University’s Center for Elections. As AP reported<\/a> on Thursday, the Center, after 15 years handling all programming for the state’s elections, has now completely deleted the server that had been used for programming, including its two back-up servers. Questions<\/a> remain as to whether the FBI might have an “image” copy of that server, officials are calling for a criminal investigation, and nobody yet knows who<\/i> ordered the computer hard drives to be completely wiped and “degaussed three times”<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We also share a terrific related listener email, and detail some of the terrible<\/i> reporting on this matter by at least one corporate outlet (which we were able to get them to, at least partially<\/i>, correct last night.) But, we hope to have much more on this story on our next BradCast<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Then, among the other stories covered on today’s program…<\/p>\n
