Citation From the November 17, 2020, edition of One America News Network's Real America with Dan Ball
DAN BALL (HOST): And a former guest on our show and a contractor for Dominion -- you remember this last week -- Melissa Carone stated in an affidavit she witnessed firsthand illegal activity at the TCF Center in Detroit during the ballot counting process. Connecting all the dots here with Dominion, folks? Now, spearheading our investigation into the allegations against Dominion is our Washington, D.C., reporter, Chanel Rion. She joins me now with more on what she has uncovered. So, Chanel, let's set this up for folks. Yesterday, you had a gentleman on our show named Joe Oltmannn. He was a guy who tried to infiltrate antifa and during his undercover operation figuring out more about antifa, he learns about this guy who’s the head of security for Dominion, and how he's connected with antifa, and pretty much says he’s got an insurance plan to make sure Trump doesn't win. That was yesterday. What do you got for us today in your investigation?
CHANEL RION (REPORTER): Dan, today we ask the question of just how easy is it to delete, swap, copy, and paste ballots at the machine level? So, we found an individual. He’s a large-systems data analyst. His name is Ron Watkins. He has been pouring over the user manuals for Dominion systems for the past week and a half. And he’s an experienced white hat hacker -- that is a good guy hacker. And he knows -- he’s been reading this manual with that mindset. His takeaway was stunning, Dan. You'll see all of this in our special coming up this weekend. But I want to show you just a little bit of what he shared with us right now. Take a listen to what Ron Watkins tells us about how easy it is to move votes around.

RON WATKINS (8KUN CO-OWNER): With the Dominion system, you need to be most concerned about activist IT people. The operators of the Dominion system, in my opinion, have way too much power to control the internal features and settings of the system. So, for example, an administrative user would have the ability to delete ballots, reset counts, delete entire batches, etc. There are many ways that this can be abused. Dominion will train between two to six workers per county, who are appointed by the county to undergo election systems trainings. And these two to six workers are trusted to not tamper with the final tabulations and counts while transferring data between the ICC, which is the ImageCast Central tabulation software, and the country. So, this transfer process is literally just dragging some folders on a Windows computer onto a flash drive, then physically handing the flash drive to the county. What I want to know is during this handoff, are these people being watched by auditors to make sure the flash drive isn’t switched off for something else? Are these folders being dragged correctly onto the flash drive? Has the data been altered before or after it's been handed off? We can't know.

…
RION: Well, I was going to say the bottom line -- having spoken to this individual for a long time -- the bottom line is the handling of thousands of votes at a time were entrusted in two to six county workers, and it was all controlled by one digital key. If you alter or compromise one of those digital keys, it affects the entire system.
BALL: Wow, and we know from your great investigating yesterday that this gentleman Joe Oltmann had heard about this Dr. Eric Coomer, who you’re going to have a lot about on your special, as you said, this Saturday here on One America News. Eric Coomer is like the director of security or something for Dominion software. And now when you Google and look him up, a bunch of his stuff from social media, poof, gone, right? They're starting to delete his background.
RION: In fact, in fact, his entire profile showing any affiliation with Dominion has been deleted. In fact, if you've been watching any of the LinkedIn profile pages for Dominion Voting Systems, the counter for how many employees are publicly listed is going down by the day. So people are scrubbing their affiliation with Dominion right now --
BALL: Wow.
RION: -- knowing that we are looking into this at this very second. So, here's what I want to leave you with, Dan. Here's what should scare all Americans, regardless of who you voted for. The fact that we're even wondering whether or not the FBI is going to lift a finger and ask any questions about this -- the fact that we’re even wondering about it should be of huge concern to all of us --
BALL: That should scare --
RION: -- regardless of your politics.
BALL: Yeah, pardon me, that should scare the living hell out of every American out there, period. That this election and this voting system was compromised at the highest level by the people put in charge of making it a free election, according to their software -- which should have been unhackable and not touched. But obviously it’s not hacking if the people that created it are the ones making the changes.
