of the GEMS databases, when they wouldn't cough them up.
The reason I'm going into this much detail is that as part of that
second case, we have asked for and gotten a complete copy of the GEMS
data files (GBF and MDB) on the central tabulator. It was written to a
hard disk the party provided still in the shrinkwrapped box from Best
Buy. It was then driven by a cop (with me along for the ride) to the
courthouse where it was stored in the court's vault.
IF they messed with that file, it may not match the innards of the L&A
database file (also on that hard disk). It may be possible to catch
the fraud, and the county can't cover it up now because they don't
have access to both disks.
Again: I don't know if there was fraud, I don't know if it'll be
possible to catch it if there was. But we now have a fighting chance.
Currently at issue: desperate to stall the case, the county is trying
to say that because we're alleging wrongdoing, a criminal
investigation by the state AG (who is lukewarm on election integrity
at best) should happen before our public records cases can go forward.
It's an absurd "hail mary pass" that the judge appears so far unlikely
to try and catch.
