Persuasive Evidence Proves South Carolina Citizens Should Have Access To Cast Vote Records But Judge Coble Punts

 In August of 2022, the South Carolina Safe Elections group and Michael Funderburk filed a lawsuit against the SC Election Commission and 8 county Boards of Elections in SC as well as a Temporary Restraining Order to preserve all 2020 election data.

The defendants had denied Freedom of information Act requests for an important audit report called a Cast Vote Record.

Prior to September 2020, our election offices provided these reports and they were even used to for analysis in national whitepapers.

In August of 2020, just prior to the 2020 election, the then executive director of our state election commission, Marci Andino, decided that due to the fact that the new machines produce ballot images, these reports should not be provided.

Not to mention the fact that she changed the definition of a cast vote record in her request to include not only the actual CVR report but also the ballot image and the physical ballot.

This was despite the fact that 28 other states and the District of Columbia provide Cast Vote Records to their citizens.

Why the sudden change and why just prior to the 2020 election? Also, why would the supposedly conservative state of South Carolina withhold valuable information from citizens who desire clarity and transparency in their elections?
