Do you have more information on that claim that Starship was being used for tabulation in swing states?
Looks like that Kathleen person is making that claim, I'd reach out to them if you'd like expansion. I'm not on Twitter so can't engage further. If anything, I imagine "starship" would be a common spell check correction of "starlink" as it's a made up marketing word. To that, seems she'd be referring to the recently discussed rumors about musk starlink satellites somehow being involved in the collection/transmission of vote counts in some areas (I haven't looked into or seen any direct evidence of that specifically), alongside things like Joe rogan just saying that musk "had an app" and he "knew the election result 4 hours before it was called".
I'm more interested in hearing more about the "under ballot" concerns and the person outlining the simple way to get clarity here with strategic confirmation of votes in a couple counties with especially prevalent shifts as illustrative of larger potential issues.
I've seen a young women very stressed out talking in a video-tweet (originally from TikTok) about how a hacker-friend who works in IT security told her how the starlink satellites communicate with Linux servers which per se can't "split the signal" and therefore could not correctly count the vote. I could have stopped the video there. If that's Kathleen either her "friend" deliberately misinformed her or she is a grifter.
Than the pretty sure straight up fabricated lies about controlled crashes.
Also the fishy af Joe Rogan telling his bros about how Elmo created an app to get the election results beforehand was either a troll by Mask or Rogan not getting that the polls just concluded that Traitor in Chief couldn't lose anymore.
OTOH I've seen a believable video-tweet from a mid 30 very american looking and speaking women in a very american looking home with a kid in the background who shouted something very adorable to her.
She talked about that she was requesting the status of her mail-in ballot from the election office and that it wasn't set to counted and/or that they couldn't find it, I don't remember exactly. She seemed very authentic.
