- More than two years after the 2020 presidential election, the small California community of Shasta County terminated its contract with Dominion Voting Systems. They’re the first county in the state to do so.
Three county supervisors voted to end the contract, despite warnings from the county CEO that it will cost more than $1 million to buy a new voting system and train employees.
Their argument? That you can’t put a price on voter confidence, so the Dominion systems had to go.

@@mystica7310, What are you talking about?

Vice.. you are owned by Fox and Disney... you need a mirror on this one. Big time.
The day we let news stations become entertainment stations and not have to fact-check anything is the reason for all of this happening. Such poor choices made by our parents and their parents. Very sad.
BINGO! I am not interested in the newscasters' opinions - read the objective facts of the story, period. That you see newscasters as trending hashtags you see the reason - clicks and ad money mean more to "journalists" and broadcasters than the truth and facts. Journalism schools and editors bear a huge part of the responsibility for this - they are churning out talking heads with zero journalistic integrity.
Capitalism. You mean to say: The problem is capitalism. You're welcome. And blaming your parents won't help, if you're a millennial or younger you have the numbers to actually change things, so as far as this Gen Xer born in the only year of zero population growth in this country's history sees it, so far you're all just new Boomers who haven't gotten poisoned by the establishment and sold out yet.. My generation simply doesn't have the numbers, and we got people like Alex Jones runnin around so yeah, wouldn't expect much out of us.
The FCC Fairness Doctrine was reversed under Reagan.
You mean op-ed stations?....
@@aick so blaming parents isn't helpful but blaming millennials and calling them boomers is? Name one political movement generation X has ever done? You people never even had a president.
Fox 'news' has done to our parents what our parents thought heavy metal and dungeons and dragons would do to us. Remember this. Repeat this to people.
Correct! Remember when parents used to tell kids to be careful online? They became the ones who have to have access taken away from them now 😅
DEAD 😂😂😂
You mean main street news. Main street news like cnn and fox should boy be aloud to call themselves news. Its all pure propaganda. It ironic when people only blame fox.
Yup I remember getting Doom and my parents and grandparents said it was going to rot my brain. Now Faux News has done exactly that to their brains.
@T S yes
In the year 2000 when I started playing PC games online my parents sat with me and had a conversation to be careful, because anyone could make anything up. Don’t believe anything anyone online says they told me.
Skip 23 years later they believe half the conspiracies they see on social media. It blows my mind how this could happen.
It is because the way to understand something is not by evasion, but by responsible exposure and formal education. The older generation have revealed themselves as more naive, in that they hold on to antiquated quasi-religious views they want to protect, have a generally lower level of education with no critical thinking skills, and an unfamiliarity with the complexity of the internet and how to navigate it.
Before, when they were warning you, their fear came from knowing they didn't at all understand the internet. Now their fear comes from thinking they do, and thinking they know too much.
My grandpa was a highly skilled engineer, electrician and construction foreman who worked on some of California's first high rises so I grew up with great respect for his intellect and experience and he taught me a lot......then in his last years he was convinced that Obama was an Islamic communist dictator who was going to declare martial law and take over the US. He was old but wasn't affected by any memory disabilities, e.g. Alzheimer's or dementia, and at 89 he still worked on his farm projects including welding and machining but when it came to politics it was Kookyville, USA. I hate these manipulative people and organizations who continue to profit while destroying people's minds as well as their families.

This is a prime example of why we need to invest in education.

Yep. Whenever these MAGA people blame someone or something, substitute their name in the subject line. They point right at themselves every time.
The irony as well of the guy worried about how Russia can hack everything so we need to get rid of the voting machines. The amount of projection is off the charts with the right wing echo chamber.
Maybe we should start protecting people above the age of 50 from social media manipulation....the same way we are trying to protect kids....coz they're shockingly vulnerable to EVERYTHING ONLINE.

Shasta county is proving the fact that being ignorant is costly, $2,000,000 of tax payer dollars for a county like that is insane. That money could be used to improve their education system, roads, etc. truly unbelievable.
Republicans aren't as fiscally conservative as they like to claim. Look at the Death Penalty for example. After Eisenhower, Republicans spend like drunk sailors building up massive deficits.
"If something on social media makes you instantly angry...check it. Because it is probably designed to manipulate you" . This was the core message of The Social Dilemma documentary.
This could go other way too if you are dealing with manipulated audience who would question what oppose on their belief. This make sense if it presents for the sane people.
Somebody put together a montage clip together recently of a bunch of different on air personalities at Fox News, one after another, saying "this is really going to make you angry" or something very similar, as an introduction to their most recent "story" designed to stir up audiences. I think it was the Daily Show. Making people angry is the business model of Fox News - it clearly drives their ratings and as their internal emails and texts on the election lies show, driving ratings is the only thing that matters at Fox.

Q-nut minds are far easier to hack and manipulate than data in voting machines. Just post a comment on their social media echo chamber about baby eating cabals and it will instantly go viral and spread faster than computer malware.
@@jeevieseverino3949 "ONLY A TRUE SCOTTSMAN" argument... quite lame... You sound like you drank a lot of Kool-Aid already... Did you need a pat on the back for your dumb decisions?
This is what happens when the education system fails in the country over a long period of time and we’re left with a large population who has no logic and reasoning skills.
... or Uncommon Sense.
This is not a failure of the education system. We've increased information and entertainment by about 10,000% in the last 20 years, and people/kids are inundated with so much bulls#$t that the education system isn't going to be able to withstand it.
Give them a break. They didn't grow up with the internet (which is riddled with wrong information thus making it's users more skeptical about everything). Analysing information isn't widely taught around the world.
@@standowner6979 Sure let's give them a break. All while they are taking away women's rights around the country, discriminating LGBT community, and creating a theocracy in all forms of government. Sure. Sounds like a solid plan moving forward. How could this possibly go wrong?
@@standowner6979 You are correct as to why media literacy is so poor in the US, but they shouldn't be given a break. They are actively denying proof when shown otherwise. I have lost family over this. I skipped my grandfather's funeral because my cousin was at the Jan 6th insurrection and my grandpa supported him. My cousin was going to be there and there was no way I would have kept from hitting him, so I decided not to go. This was also before we had vaccinations, with vaccine denial and outright denial of covid's seriousness being more of fox news' hysteria inducing lies. My family rented a freaking party bus the night before, and people were traveling from all over to get on it. I don't know if any of them caught covid because I cut contact with all of them. Fox news has done this to our country. They must atone for what they have done to all of us.
It appears that the Sashta County Board’s decision to terminate the contract will only bolster Dominion’s claim that Fox News defamed them and cost them business. Way to go Shasta County Board!
The 2020 election was shady as hell. When do you have states just immediately stop counting votes at the exact same time. The other guy is leads ahead and the next day, BOOM , suddenly the other dude won. Everybody KNOWS what happened. They know cause it's so obvious. You see this crap in Latin countries.

Are you really that closed minded? There is no way our election system could be rigged?
Exactly. FOX can’t use the defense that no one believed their lies about Dominion. Keep it up, Shasta!
No fuqs given by Fox or Shasta County, just you ppl. The former would rather win on the merits of the case... like were they reporting facts. The latter would rather have tangible paper ballots.
"We were all elected by Dominion voting machines. So are you questioning the outcome of your own election?" Great point.
My dude made a great point with that Lamborghini line. You could hear how loud that silence was as they actually had a tiny moment of clarity...but then the clouds immediately moved back in.

Vote does not guarantee anything. It is all pre-decided, who wins and who loses. Believe me, all of these so-called politicians are in same boat. Elections are nothing but a circus.
Gives one a small shred of hope that we aren't all completely doomed.
So let's do a interview in a Republican county in a Dem state where it doesn't really matter because the majority of the state is Dem...
Kari Lake questioned her own election when she won her primary but she was censored and labeled as a “conspiracy theorist” and Democrats have always said that elections weren’t fair when they didn’t win.
There are videos of them saying that if you want to know the truth instead of just repeating propaganda from Vice
As someone who lived in Shasta County for half their life and still has family there, I can safely say it is crazy. Every time I visit my hometown in Redding, it is like stepping back in time with the beliefs the people there have.

"Is it argued by any rational man that the debased Christianity cherished by the mob in all the Christian countries of today, has any colourable likeness to the body of ideas preached by Christ?
"The plain fact is that this bogus Christianity has no more relation to the system of Christ than it has to Aristotle. It is the invention of Paul and his attendant rabble-rousers--a body of men exactly comparable to the corpse of evangelical pastors of today, which is to say, a body devoid of sense and lamentably indifferent to common honesty. The mob, having heard Christ, turned against Him. His theological ideas were too logical and plausible for it, and His ethical ideas were enormously too austere. What it yearned for was the old comfortable balderdash under a new and gaudy name, and that is precisely what Paul offered it. He borrowed from all the wandering dervishes and body-snatchers of Asia Minor, and flavoured the stew with remnants of Greek demonology. The result was a code of doctrines so discordant and so nonsensical that no two men since, examining it at length, have ever agreed upon its precise meaning. Paul remains the arch theologian of the mob. His turgid and witless metaphysics make Christianity bearable to men who would otherwise be repelled by Christ's simple and magnificent reduction of the duties of man to the duties of a gentle-man."

At no point in history has guilt ever been a large contribution to geopolitics. This all begins with scholars and academics reaction to late colonization, particularly the Enlightenment.

"I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member." -- Groucho Marx
I don't think your argument makes sense. I think the Republican right wing is absolutely batshit crazy, but on this point, I agree. I don't trust the electronic voting machines either, but I'm not about to stop voting, and an elected official who was elected via voting using machines made by Dominion or another outfit should keep doing their job. If part of that job includes (according to their judgment) doing away with these machines, they should do so.
If there's a 2% chance that the machines can be hacked, it's probably a good idea to get rid of them. That being said, it doesn't mean that any particular election was hacked.
Either way, the really important thing is to have a paper record in case of a dispute or a recount. The real problem with the GOP's approach to voting laws is their attempt to disenfranchise people of color. That is truly horrible, and has very serious negative consequences for democracy in the US.

Shasta county is the same county that sent its sheriffs department to raid a family, whose nine-year-old had raised the goat for the county fair and didn’t wanna give it up for slaughter because she lost three grandparents that year.
They took the goat and had it immediately killed, rather than safely held as such a dispute dictates.
And they explicitly said they did it to “teach her a lesson”.
I saw that story. I urge everyone to boycott all activities at the Shasta Fair until all board members are removed. They're all appointed by the governor's office I believe. Call them and mention how unimpressed you are.

Except it's totally wrong. Dominion voting machines are far from the gold standard of security. Security experts have been critical of Dominion way before it was a partisan issue.

It's truly heartbreaking. I lived in Yreka for a few years and I always loved visiting the Shasta area. It's sad to see how gross "news" outlets like FOX twisting people's minds and turning beautiful parts of the country into hotbeds of hate.
I lived in mt Shasta for a short time. Immediately I learned many of the residents believed there were aliens living inside the mountain and that there was a cult called the ascended light masters that had convinced many people that they were enlightened and were selling them ridiculous products like dirt that was blessed by them. Very expensive.

“As an elected official, should you be able to present evidence of why you are making decisions like that?” “No.” That pretty much says it all, doesn’t it?
I don't think the 2020 election was stolen or anything like that, but are voting machines actually the absolute best way to count votes? I'm just curious. What's the issue with hand counts?
In the US if you're making decisions on how public funds are spent don't you have by law to demonstrate you're obtaining value for money? I know in the UK and EU it's a legal requirement and I'm sure it's the same in the US, I can't believe it's not.
@@davidhughes4089 It is not. That is why we have so much money and nothing to show for it.
@@brontesegard8305 that's really weird, in the EU you have to publicly advertise any contracts for goods or services you want to put out above a certain value (around $150,000 depending on what it is), you have to declare who you awarded it to and there's a fair amount of scrutiny on the process/right to challenge,/FOIA requests.
The idea is basically because you're spending public money (rather than private money in a normal company) you've got to be a lot more accountable - it's not just a shareholder making less profit. I'm really surprised this sort of principle isn't common across all western countries.
@David Hughes The US does have similar laws. The federal government has to report expenditures over $25,000. State and local expenditures may be handled differently depending on locality.
I don’t know that you have to demonstrate any return on value, as you describe, but you do have to provide transparency on the spending itself. I believe that demonstrating value would occur within settings such as our congressional body, or local legislative/municipal bodies. This information is ultimately public as well.

I think the bigger problem here is that no amont of proof will ever be enough to convince some people, perhaps you are one of them I dont know. Now just take a minute and notice if you first reaction was to think :” why would you trust the company that built the machine, of course they would tell us the machine is safe”. I’d suggest you follow that question with : “ do I have more reasons to believe the people telling me the elections where stolen””am I choosing to believe something because I like the person or group of people who said it?””what kind of gain could someone hope from getting me and other people to believe that?””am I believing something because it feels right and if so can I put my emotions aside for a moment and check if the facts fit?” “Even if I still believe the elections where stolen what would be the smallest proof I could see that would make me believe this just 1% less?”. There’s a part of critical thinking people have to do for themselves most media have some political leanings and will not give people facts to help people make opinion they will tell you what the fact’s mean according to their preferred views.

For my grandmas (I was raised by my grandparents) 94th birthday just before the primary Hillary won I got her a Bernie ugly Christmas sweater and she *_loved_* it. She wore it all the time but I’m absolutely positive, without a shadow of a doubt, if I wasn’t over there every other day talking to her about what was going on she would have been sucked into the right wing bubble. There was almost a brawl at her party between me and her niece, nephew, two great nephews my age, and my sisters now husband… all of whom are part of the right wing eco chamber. To paint the picture, I’m 33 and my two cousins are twins a few years older than me. I’m 100% sure neither has ever kissed a girl, dated, played a sport, or broken a bone. When I was 12 they were 16 and they had to go home because one of them told their mom on the other one that he wasn’t wearing a helmet while riding his bike… _at 16 years old._ Now somehow they’re clinging to their guns because they’re ‘real men’ that are ready to defend their country from tyranny. Their mom wouldn’t let them play football or ride their bike without a helmet… but now Fox News convinced them they’re Rambo. In short, as much as I miss my grandma I’m glad she passed before the whole qanon thing.

My country doesn't have voting machines and the electoral process is so stressful. Rigging is so rampant and ballot box snatching is still a thing. I'm watching these people saying they want to get rid of voting machines like 😬
I have less trust in human hand-counted votes than machine counting. We as the voters don't get to look through the ballots ourselves, so no matter what method is used to count the voters have no choice but to trust who's counting the votes and there's practically 0 way to get true transparency.
I would much rather trust a non partisan machine to count my vote than a partisan human.
But you can watch humans, in Britain once the day is over the votes are counted with people watching and CCTV.
If a machine gets configured to give a wrong number it may take ages or you may never find out.
I'm from the left btw and I don't believe the election was stolen, I just do not trust machines for a second.
For real, plus they don't even connect to the internet
Do you believe the humans that build such machines and are in control of them can't manipulate them? In Argentina they used the Smartmatic machines (same as Brazil, India and VENEZUELA) and a guy here -along with other non-related persons- hacked it with VERY SIMPLE RFID chips hidden in stupid/completely non-suspicious things.

If someone can't trust a voting machine, my question would be what kind of human process would they trust instead? At some point you're going to have to hand your vote over to strangers to count (maybe recount), verify, then confirm who won without you being around all the time, right? And even if everyone was allowed to watch the whole process, would they still accept the results without being able to verify each and every eligible voter and who they voted for?

That's the problem, if my side doesn't win, regardless of what system is used, the election was stolen, and I have a "news" network that confirms it.
According to the video they'd rather return to hand counting which is not only tedious and requires more workers but is probably doubly more susceptible to human error than voting machines. 😂😂

I live in South Africa, and we have a completely manual system of vote counting because nobody trusts the government not to rig the elections. Each political party is allowed to have its own observer at at every polling station in the country during vote casting (which is always done on paper), and votes are manually counted at the polling station in front of the party observers immediately after voting. The final tally has to be signed by both the election officials AND all of the different party observers to become official. If the party observers refuse to sign then the votes are recounted until everybody is happy. It's not uncommon for counting to take up to 24 hours after the polling station closes, during which time nobody is allowed to enter or leave.
It's a completely transparent and trust-free system, and we have never had a political party contest election results.
Extremism is the worst thing for our country.
Yep, and the magats keep getting more and more extreme.
I fear that we have passed the point of recovery for a vast number of people. It was, and still is, frightening to see psy-ops occur before your very eyes. To be powerless to stop it, despite being armed with truth, intelligence, and common sense.
"truth, intelligence, and common sense." this cannot be used to describe democrats
I agree
Yup, and they're playing both sides.
I can't help but laugh at the Q-Anon cultists for allowing themselves to be convinced that everything from the air we breathe, to the water we eat and the food we drink are all "psy-ops," yet never once did any of them consider the possibility that Q-Anon ITSELF might be the biggest "psy-op" of all...
Russia did a number on Republicans. This is no exaggeration. I saw all of the propaganda accounts they had online and every time they tweeted or posted lies, it spread like wildfire amongst republicans. I can’t believe I’m alive to witness all of this.
Cathy sounds exactly, EXACTLY like my elections administrator whom I know well; she works so hard to do it all right, down to the smallest procedure of the law and on time, even underfunded. I really feared she would quit and the next person would not be so dedicated and might even be corrupt. I live in a deeply red southern county as an independent voter. Cathy is soooo right; this corruption has hurt America badly and it may never recover. End of the USA and of democracy.
She doesn't get paid enough to deal with the loonies that believe the election was stolen yet their local races weren't affected.
I hope your elections admin stays for as long as they can manage.
I too fear most, if not all, replacements will be power hungry and/or come into the position with ill intent.
Can I donate to her cause? Do you know? European guy here who has SO much respect for women / men / *people* like Cathy!
The next person will be just as dedicated. The problem is they will be dedicated to their idea of that the vote should be, not to a fair and impartial election process.
That is exactly why Fox News is doing this. To make elections LESS secure, so that they can be manipulated in their favor.
2:41 It's like asking a bank vault manufacturer to prove that nobody can break into their vaults. It's impossible. But not having a vault and only posting security guards is way worse.
Absolute security does not exist. Batshit crazy.
Any system crated by man can be breached by another man dedicated enough. This is why systems like this needs to have several layers of security so that no tampering can happen, or least its noted/leaves tracks. So yes absolute security does not exist but maybe dont have the machines connected to internet?
Can't hack a piece of paper, genius.
@@nitePhyyre Fine, but the problem here is that this has nothing to do with an actual misstrust in the machines. Nobody cared about these machines until Trump lost, and I have yet to hear a single Trump supporter question the legitimazy of the result anywhere Trump won.. even if the same machines was used.
That is because it has nothing to do with machines, it's was just a grift to try to steal the election. This is how it started.. a mob briniging a hanging stand to the Capitol, looking for Mike Pence is how it ended.

@@controlaltdeleteish Never trust a MAGA moron.
Yes, it did. I speak as a European, who has a lot of friends in America, has spent a lot of time there, and previously planned to move there. To anyone not bombarded with, and therefore desensitized to, it, Fox News is INSANE. The outside world watching what has become of America and so much of its populace is horrified. The same thing has happened to the UK (which has another Murdoch propaganda machine, the Daily Mail).
And Australia, his home country. New Zealand has avoided much of our extremism and populism because Murdoch has never been allowed to take over their press
I firmly believe that once Putin and Murdoch are gone, the world will lose 50% of its populist extremism. They are the main pushers.
Both are breathing borrowed air.
Absolutely. I'm german and not even our worst major newspaper, the BILD is as bad as FoxNews. And I don't mean "boohoo, they say politics things I don't like". The BILD lies by poorly researching controversial topics and presenting their "findings" with inflammatory headlines. Fox deliberately lies to viewers faces.
Why do you think Murdoch wants to destabilize English speaking countries? I can’t understand his motivation.
CNN is even worse.
Hand count can be "hacked" as well. I still remember all those news reports about Hanging Chads. It was that situation that opened the door to electronic voting.
True, but why add wireless modems? For instant reported results? 🤦♂️ That's stupid adding a door where a wall should be.

As a resident of Shasta County, sometimes I feel like the only sane guy in the nut house. Thank God that people spoke up on behalf of reason. Sadly, having grown up here, I know that reason will have little effect, and the outcome will most likely be the same.
Thanks to those who spoke up at the meeting, and thanks to Vice news for reporting on the situation. I think it's time I start getting more involved. I am tired of being a spectator to this madness.

I can't imagine being a liberal and/or minority in a red state in a semi-fascist country like present-day USA. My heart goes out to you.
It all starts with that god and jesus bullshit, which primed people who were compelled to believe things with NO proof or evidence. This behavior does not stop at the church doors.
Grown adults should know better. It is shameful and pathetic.
I always love it when the fact that the person voting against these machines are silent when asked how they got elected if they were fixed? That was also asked with Trump people who were elected.
You think they could get away with it, if it was blatant enough to completely and undeniably prove fraud? You can only push a candidate through with fraud if the vote is within a certain margin, or people will get suspicious; so landslide votes can't be defrauded. And you can only do it so often before people start getting suspicious, so you have to reserve it for significant elections, like the presidency and significant state offices when possible (at least a few close elections have to go to the right, or again the people will get suspicious). If you leave little enough evidence of your crimes, useful idiots will jump to your defense left and right.
But if we actually performed audits of the ballots (not just recounts), which they are desperately trying to keep from happening whenever the issue is raised, they would be exposed. That's all it would take.
You can't fix stupid with these people.

What do you suppose the Repub voters would do if there was a Dem or Independent vote counter among the workers and their Repub candidate didn't win?
Trump and Fox News did this. After the 2020 election a Fox news executive admitted telling the truth [about the election] was bad for business because their viewers wanted the lies.

@@Critical-Thinker895 Your comment supplied the substance, your account name was the frosting.
As a disabled US Army Veteran, I volunteered to work a polling location here in my home town in California. The process was a wonderful experience to learn more about how local elections work. I was even required to take an education class about how elections work both at polling locations and what at the county election board office. It also was a VERY LONG 16 HOURS of work dealing with various types of people not just who came to vote but also the workers at the county election board. Every question I asked about the process was answered with patient and knowledgeable workers who really cared that the process would be accurate. I believe if everyone would volunteer to work at a polling location or station, it would give many people a much better idea of just how the process really works! But since it's only a small number of people that volenteer, most in this state and country will believe the crazies stories about the elections because they have no real idea how the system works. And now those people with the greatest experience are now being harassed and threatened by crazy people who are willing to believe anything they are told by people on Fox because they were more concerned about money than the truth! And this all started because one deluded person could not accept they lost an election..
you said it all. props.
I vote by mail because of the lack of wonderful people like you. Thank you for your service
I wish I could buy you a beer or whatever you go for a treat because your comment was a treat to read.
Your story is great but sheds no light into election integrity and accountability. The people at the polling stations are great people and they do work really hard but they have no idea what is going on behind the scenes. If the technology is corrupted, you would never know. The best thing you can tell people is that you try really hard but you don't actually know...
@@willi960 So what you're saying is all elections in the history of past elections we never know what actually happens. Do you know how many ppl it would take to rig an election with over 150 million ppl casting ballots. It's 2 years now and no one has been able to prove any irregularities that would make a difference in the count. Just the fact that Frump won in 2016 says that voting is safe and not rigged unless you convince dumb ppl to vote for you unlawfully. Frump should never of been president in the 1st place. BTW, when Fox loses their case with Dominion, which they will, will ppl who bought into the lie all change their minds. Probably, the voters with half a brain might. but the true hard cultists are too infected with the koolaid to part with their party for the dumbest of reasons, as we have seen them in many videos. We really do live in an alternate universe if we question everything that we don't agree with. Remember that this is a democracy that I believe in where the majority elects their leader. The minority therefore has to also accept it for the good of all citizens.
i love that one ladys point "how are you gonna rebuild trust with voters?"
"hi, i didnt break trust with voters" look to your source who HAS broken that trust. because they did so for a cult leader.
