I don’t understand why we’re still using Dominion voting machines for the Georgia election today.

Columbia County voting snag catches Trump’s attention
By: WRDW, January 5, 2020:
EVANS, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – Due to some technical problems that drew the attention of President Donald Trump, voters in Columbia County had to fill out paper ballots for a time Tuesday morning instead of using machines to mark their ballots during the start of voting in Georgia’s Senate runoffs.
Meanwhile, voting was going smoothly with no problems reported in neighboring Richmond County, according to Richmond County Elections Director Lynn Bailey. The Columbia County problems were among the few in Georgia, according to the state’s elections chief, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.
It looks like Dominion voting machines are down in Georgia
Let’s hope Democrats don’t use this as an opportunity to push the election in their favor
We will fight them hard if they dohttps://t.co/jNh4QzDhy0

State voting official Gabriel Sterling blamed the problems in Columbia County on a programming error for security keys and poll worker cards.
After the problem was realized, newly programmed codes and key cards were being taken to locations via law enforcement. The problems across Columbia County were fixed by 10 a.m., according to Raffensperger’s office.
At the Stevens Creek Church voting site, the polling manager said a code gives staff members access to the systems to start them up for the day.
However, that code was wrong Tuesday morning.
When this happens, staff members report the problem to the elections office, which must re-initiate that code and get the systems back up, the polling manager said.
When the systems were down Tuesday, poll workers started issuing emergency paper ballots until their systems came back up.
What Trump saidThe snag in a red county caught the eye of Trump, who tweeted:
Reports are coming out of the 12th Congressional District of Georgia that Dominion Machines are not working in certain Republican Strongholds for over an hour. Ballots are being left in lock boxes, hopefully they count them. Thank you Congressman @RickAllen
Sterling fired back on Twitter because Trump’s tweet came after the problem had been fixed:.
And this issue in Columbia Co. was resolved hours ago and our office informed the public about it in real time. The votes of everyone will be protected and counted. Sorry you received old intel Mr. President.
How it’s supposed to workUnder the voting system, which the state has used for less than a year, voters receive a key card to activate a voting machine, then use a touch screen on the machine to make their selections. The machine prints a paper ballot, which voters take to a scanning station and insert to record their votes.
Among the problems Sterling cited were issues with the key cards.
So voters filled out ballots by hand when the system wasn’t working.
Once the ballots were filled out, voters inserted them into a slot in a locked bin attached to the ballot scanner.

Which locations had problems?We don’t have an extensive list of polling locations affected by the problem, but one newsroom staff member reported needing to hand-mark a paper ballot at West Acres Baptist Church. News 12 also received reports from viewers or staff members that paper ballots also were used at the Kiokee Baptist Church, Stevens Creek, Augusta Christian and River Island voting sites.
Election workers at Grove First Baptist Church said they ran out of key cards and the polling pads for employees weren’t working Tuesday morning.
When they ran out of keys, they gave out eight paper ballots.
