Could Be a Game Changer in Catching Ballot Fraud - Commercial Printers Use a Secret Code (invisible to naked eye) So Documents Can Be Authenticated What if someone attempted to introduce fraudulent ballots into an election.....how could you identify those -- even if they look exactly the same as the official ballots? I found this post on one of the boards: "Official ballots were watermarked and registered on a blockchain, including some other classified indicators.  Upon recount, the enemy will be exposed.  They had no idea.  They walked right into a trap". I'm not sure what to make of this -- because each state creates and distributes their own ballots.  Who would have been registering these in a blockchain??  (note: see list of Republican Governors below -- Repub. states may indeed have these controls) . However, I did a bit of research and found this INTERESTING TIDBIT:  There are secret codes printed by every commercial printer that allows you to identify where the document originated.  According to the article below, those codes are the way they caught Reality Winner, who illegally printed and sent NSA documents to the Intercept (news outlet). So, the NSA KNOWS this technology exists -- and in theory you would be able to see ballots printed by an unauthorized vendor.  Anyone introducing mass produced fraudulent ballots (that look the same as the originals) could be caught this way.  And this would apply to ANY STATE! Read about the secret printing codes here: https://theoutline.com/post/1713/the-history-of-the-secret-printer-code-that-may-have-caught-the-nsa-leaker?zd=1&zi=vhzvdazo and here: https://gadgets.ndtv.com/laptops/features/nsa-leaker-reality-winner-microdots-printer-spying-metadata-1714577 "using the EFF's decoder tool - is the model and serial number of the printer, and the exact date and time that the printout was taken." Edit: It is very possible that Republican led states have embedded watermarks & blockchain registration into ballots.  This could explain the level of confidence the GOP had in Florida's election (DeSantis). I looked up the states with Republican Governors:
