Three days ago, the NYT published an article defending the Michigan based election software company Konnech, from attacks by what they called 'election deniers'.

The group 'True the Vote', claimed the company had ties to China.

'Using threadbare evidence, or none at all, the group suggested that a small American election software company, Konnech, had secret ties to the Chinese Communist Party and had given the Chinese government backdoor access to personal data about two million poll workers in the United States, according to online accounts from several people at the conference.'

'But the attacks on Konnech demonstrate how far-right election deniers are also giving more attention to new and more secondary companies and groups. Their claims often find a receptive online audience, which then uses the assertions to raise doubts about the integrity of American elections.'

The next day, the CEO of Konnech, Eugene Yu, was arrested on allegations he was "storing critical information that the workers provided on servers in China'. Exactly what True the Vote claimed he was doing.

'CEO arrested just 1 day after NYT profiled his firm as the victim of an ‘election denier’ ‘conspiracy theory’

Lol
Much ado about nothing
Scheduling software. The horror :-)
Still a victim of the election denier or conspiracy theory
Trump still lost
This is not the reason Trump lost
The arrest has absolutely nothing to do with changing any election or votes
Let's see where this case goes for this tiny tiny company in the scheduling software business

Congratulations of finding some attempted election interference from a foreign government. No link to Democrats stealing an election so far.

I would expect that response from the village idiot.

What election interference?

The post was about the NYT defending a company that was accused by a conservative group, of sending the personal information of American poll workers to China.

Turns out, the LA District Attorney, has reasonable cause to believe they did.

I'm willing to throw Eugene Yu and his company under the bus if the allegations are proven true.
I'm waiting to hear a response from the other side
Not looking good for Eugene
As to the NYT
Yawn. It's behind a pay wall so I can't even read the story.
It's actually funny how rightys get so upset at articles they can't read.
Look at how many right wingers are still backing Walker
They are incapable of throwing anybody on the right under a bus

You ignoring my posts? I’ve thrown Walker under the bus, but I also explained why many will still logically vote for him. Some people vote for a human being. Some vote for the way that human being will vote. Warnock voted for the idiotic ‘Inflation Reduction Act’. Walker would have voted against it. Whatever myriad of personal weaknesses Walker has, his vote in the Senate would be a positive, thwarting the destructive Democrat agenda. That’s why people will be voting for Walker. For your side, luckily not as many who will be voting for Warnock. Prediction…. Warnock beats Walker by 8%.

Those illegals Governor Abbott shipped to Washington DC, are going to be allowed to vote in local elections. He is still sending them. If he sends enough of them, they could eventually vote themselves free housing, monthly cash handouts, and free medical care at the expense of the taxpayers.

If the bill passes the Bizarro World council, congress can only prevent the law from taking effect, with a two-thirds majority vote. Which will never happen.

That's all this lady has been doing for the last decade.

Let it happen. Maybe instead of DC being a state we can throw it out and let it be a free city-state. They can keep the monuments and the Air and Space museum. Just leave, and take eastern VA with them!

Sort of like Vatican City, except instead of Catholics there would be blood drinking ghouls in pizza parlors, right?
