According to Jesse Binnall, who presented the evidence on behalf of the Trump campaign, the witness, whose name is shielded by a protective order, said that the vote tallies were collected from the machine at the end of every voting day and stored on Universal Serial Bus (USB) drives overnight.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat they would do is they would log these disks in and out. Good practice.\u00a0<\/strong>And the disks had a serial number on them. And numerous times that disk would be logged out with one vote total on it\u00a0and logged back in the next morning during the early vote period with a different number on it. Sometimes more, sometimes less,\u201d Binnall said.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat that means is that literally in the dead of night, votes were appearing, and books are disappearing on these machines.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Binnall said that the USB drives were not encrypted and the\u00a0voting machines<\/a>\u00a0were not password protected.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd they were hooked up with laptops, then where the laptops themselves could have been compromised,\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>he added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The allegation about the vote total alterations was one of several Binnall presented during an evidentiary hearing, the first of its kind for the Trump legal team\u2019s six-state post-election effort.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/zh-prod-1cc738ca-7d3b-4a72-b792-20bd8d8fa069.storage.googleapis.com\/s3fs-public\/styles\/inline_image_desktop\/public\/inline-images\/Jesse-Binall-700x420.jpg?itok=5kb3tgx3)
