#Bolivia #Fraud #Fraude Due to the following news, I am going to start calling the election fraud in Bolivia "confirmed." We have a coherent narrative endorsed by both the chief electoral official and the OAS audit team…
-
As I described earlier, the OAS audit identified an unauthorized server, interruption of the rapid count, unreliable data put in the official count, and apparent over-voting in Argentina as fatal flaws in the vote. @CarwilBJ/1193507008001040388

The TREP server operators were contractors from Neotec and they have been denouncing irregularities for weeks, including the 23-hour interruption of their work. lostiempos.com/actualidad/pais/20191101/gerente-neotec-interrumpir-trep-fue-desastroso
-
On October 30, the Neotec team reported they were ordered to suspend operations, and (here is the clue of extreme irregularity) their Internet and power were cut. lostiempos.com/actualidad/pais/20191030/choque-ordeno-neotec-suspender-trep-razon-fue-cambio-tendencia-cc-mas

Following the November 10 audit report and the fall of Evo Morales, Supreme Electoral Tribunal President Maria Eugenia Choque Quispe was detained by police.
-
Following her detention, she told the press that she was "a prisoner of decisions imposed" upon her from the outside, and that the facts would come out. erbol.com.bo/seguridad/choque-%E2%80%9Che-sido-prisionera-de-decisiones-impuestas%E2%80%9D
-
Today, her lawyer Jhonny Castelú has stated that Choque Quispe has told authorities "how the suspension [of the count] and the cutoff of electricity for the count, of the internet" were carried out. eldeber.com.bo/156333_exvocal-choque-dice-que-recibio-orden-superior-y-suman-mas-aprehensiones
-
The coinciding narratives of the OAS and TSE head Choque Quispe are strong evidence that fraud was committed. I for one will stop using "alleged" as a preface to describing electoral fraud in the October 20 election.

There has been a lot of Twitter debate about the nature of the coup/uprising/resignation, but very little about #Fraud/#FraudeElectoral, and this is a vital issue for many Bolivians.
-
Also @MarkWeisbrot, you need to absolutely stop saying "they never presented any evidence at all." You evidently haven't followed the Bolivian press. @democracynow
