Georgia's secretary of state has joined plaintiffs in lawsuit filed against him in calling for the release of a report that analyzes Dominion Voting Systems equipment.
The report, completed by J. Alex Halderman, director of the University of Michigan Center for Computer Security and Society, was filed under seal in Curling v. Raffensperger, a federal case that alleged hackers had "The capability" and "Easy access" to voting machines in Georgia.
Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a Republican, said Jan. 26 that the report should be made public because it is "Generating misleading media articles about the Dominion voting equipment used in Georgia."
Little has been revealed about the report in court sessions and in court documents but the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that it concluded hackers could change votes if they gained access to the machines.
U.S. District Judge Amy Totenberg, an Obama nominee, told parties in the case a day after Raffensperger's call that she would review a version of the report with redactions and decide whether to release it.
"His lawyers have objected to every request we and Dr. Halderman have made to the Court over the last several months to make the report public and provide it to federal and state election security officials. His implication that Dr. Halderman or the judge has prevented him and his office from learning the substance of the report and addressing the many serious BMD vulnerabilities identified in it is simply untrue," he wrote.
Kemp, a Republican running for re-election, said in a statement on Jan. 26 that the secretary of state "Should immediately gather all relevant information regarding this report, thoroughly vet its findings, and assure Georgians he is doing everything possible to ensure the system, procedures and equipment are completely secure."
