Established Fact

2. Ruby Freeman was not a county employee nor was she trained nor authorized to operate the scanner she used to scan ballots on November 3, 2020.

3. Unsecured mail carts filled with tens of thousands of ballots with no chain of custody or provenance appeared at State Farm Arena. The ballot containers were not inspected nor were they sealed as required by statute.
