So, who paid off whom???

Members of an audit team in Windham, New Hampshire, are finding more discrepancies in the 2020 election results in the state and suspect folds in ballots could be to blame.

"Something we strongly suspect at this juncture, based on various evidence, is that in some cases, fold lines are being interpreted by the scanners as valid votes," auditor Mark Lindeman said, according to a report by WMUR9 on Monday, after the first review of four AccuVote machines was completed over the weekend.

Republican Gov. Chris Sununu signed legislation on April 12 ordering an audit of the ballot-counting machines and memory cards used during the 2020 general election in Windham, as well as a hand tabulation of roughly 10,000 ballots for the state House, governor, and U.S. senator races. That was after a November hand recount established discrepancies between vote totals, in particular with four of the candidates in Rockingham District 7 gaining about 300 votes, while the top-finishing Democrat, Kristi St. Laurent, lost 99 votes.
