Parikh determined that closing tabulator tapes were missing for some machines and,of 138 closing tapes that were provided by Fulton County in response to Open Record Requests,only 16 tabulators accounted for approximately 315,000 ballots. In his review, Parikh identifiedone tabulator that was used to close out 15 tabulator machines from 12 different locations. Inaddition, the poll closing time and report printed times on several closing tabulator tapes wereclose enough in time that Parikh believed someone had to have manipulated the times on thereports. Parikh believed this showed that the memory cards were removed from the originaltabulator and put in another tabulator to print out the closing tabulator tapes.Wit. 3Wit. 7Wit. 7
46. Parikh also reviewed the protective counter number on the tabulator tapes. Theprotective counter is similar to an odometer on a vehicle. It counts the number of ballots tabulatedon that machine for the machine’s lifetime. Comparing the protective counter at the start of theelection and the end of the election, and comparing that change in the protective counter to theclosing tapes, helps ensure the integrity of the tabulation. Parikh’s analysis further revealed thatthe protective counters on at least five tabulator tapes from the same unit were identical, and thatsome of the reported ballots scanned exceeded the protective counter number. This indicated toParikh that no ballots were ever scanned on these machines and that the numbers generated fromthose ballots were done so by placing an unencrypted memory card into the unit to generate theclosing tape. This would have allowed an opportunity for the tabulation to be tampered with.47. All of the closing tabulator tapes that Parikh provided in his review, based on thepoll opening times and the locations, appear to be from in-person early voting locations.
