“Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill is disputing claims cybercriminals ‘flipped’ 100,000 votes from Donald Trump to Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election. The claims came from Mike Lindell, the founder of MyPillow and a Trump adviser. Lindell has been touring states in an effort to prove the election was stolen from Trump via computer manipulation. He visited Merrill and Gov. Kay Ivey last week, saying he planned to run ‘tests’ on the state’s voter rolls” AL.com reports

“In a video posted online Sunday, Lindell said while Alabama is a ‘role model as to how elections should go,’ its voting system was ‘hacked, just like every other state,’ possibly by accessing machines remotely through Bluetooth technology. Lindell did not offer any evidence of his claims in the video or provide details on who he thought was involved. ‘This was the one time we’re going to have to do a little bit of a deeper dive here. On the surface you can’t see where it happened,” Lindsell said. ‘What I guarantee they’ve had to do in Alabama is the bad people…went deeper into the well. Very deep into the well of how they did the flips.’ Lindell’s data said 100,000 votes were changed in the state and ‘every single county was affected.’ Merrill said that’s not possible. ‘All our (voting) machines are custom-built. There’s no modem component. You can’t influence them through a cell phone or a landline. There’s no way they can be probed or numbers manipulated’”
