Tell me, Keith. What is the main purpose of issuing advisory codes that you do not mean to enforce, and which can be twisted into custom advice by county?
Section 13 – Ballot Numbering and Ballot Signature/Initial Requirements
Ballot Numbering Requirements: The Texas Election Code establishes the following ballot numbering requirements in order to track and account for the total number of ballots used in an election, how they were used, in what locations, and to account for the ballot stock that was unused Any ballots used in a Texas election must be (1) numbered consecutively, beginning with the number “1”, (2) numbered so that a specific range can be linked to a specific polling place, and (3) must be distributed to voters non-sequentially in order to preserve ballot secrecy. (Secs. 51.006-51.008, 52.062, 62.009). Under Section 121.001 of the Texas Election Code, the other titles of the code apply to all voting systems except to the extent that a provision is “inconsistent with this title or cannot feasibly be applied” in an election using a voting system. Under Section 122.001(c) of the Texas Election Code, the Secretary of State has the authority to prescribe procedures related to voting systems. For jurisdictions using ballot marking devices, our office has authorized the following modified procedures for jurisdictions to comply with the ballot numbering requirements pursuant to Section 52.075:
Pre-Printed or Hand-Numbered Numbers on Blank Ballot Stock: A jurisdiction can meet this requirement by ordering blank ballot stock with pre-printed numbers or by using a hand-numbering machine to number blank ballot stock.
The ballots shall be tracked, distributed, and retained just as you would with a traditional pre-printed full ballot in accordance with Sections 51.006, 51.007, 51.008.
If you are using pre-numbered ballot stock, then the ballot stock must be placed face down and disarranged so that a voter may select a ballot with a random ballot number to preserve ballot secrecy.
The remaining ballot stock cannot be used in a subsequent elections and must be retained with your precinct election records for the duration of the preservation period.
With this system, you will continue to have your presiding judges fill out the Ballot Register (PDF) and the original and duplicate forms will be returned in the applicable envelopes.
We have approved modifications to the Ballot Register form upon request. If you would like to modify our standard form, please send the form for review.
The jurisdiction can pre-number the ballots and split them into batches for each election, with each batch beginning with a number that ends in the number “1”. Those batches must be no smaller than units of 100, though a jurisdiction could batch in larger units if needed (1000, 10,000, etc.).
Example: For the November election, the jurisdiction could use ballots 1-1500, and for the May election that jurisdiction could then use ballots 1501-2400, and for the following November election the jurisdiction could use ballots 2401-4200, etc.
To use this batching method the jurisdiction will need to track which batches are assigned to each election through a master log that identifies the range of ballots that were used for each election. The jurisdiction must then track which ballots from that election’s particular range are distributed to each polling place through the normal procedures.

How our County is supposed to confirm a suspected unlawful voter
Sec. 1.0015. LEGISLATIVE INTENT. It is the intent of the legislature that the application of this code and the conduct of elections be uniform and consistent throughout this state to reduce the likelihood of fraud in the conduct of elections, protect the secrecy of the ballot, promote voter access, and ensure that all legally cast ballots are counted.
Sec. 1.003. CONSTRUCTION OF CODE. (a) The Code Construction Act (Chapter 311, Government Code) applies to the construction of each provision in this code, except as otherwise expressly provided by this code.
(a-1) Election officials and other public officials shall strictly construe the provisions of this code to effect the intent of the legislature under Section 1.0015.
(b) When a provision of this code provides that it supersedes another specifically referenced provision of this code to the extent of any conflict, no conflict is created by the failure of the superseding provision, or of related provisions, to repeat the substance of the referenced provision; rather, a conflict exists only if the substance of the superseding and any related provisions is irreconcilable with the substance of the referenced provision. If the substance of the superseding provision, together with any related provisions, and the substance of the referenced provision can each be applied to the same subject or set of circumstances, both provisions shall be given effect.

Takingbacktexas.org has been trying to convince you all that the Elections are NOT AUDITABLE for at least 6 months, due to violations of State Election Codes set in place by the State Legislature, as Constitutionally ordained, violations authorized by the Secretary of State's office's Election Department chair Keith Ingram.
We've had our report up since last year outlining this.

It would seem as tho Krause is WELL funded.
"Election Fraud" means something different to those in power, or tapped to inherit the power.
Never does it mean that they'll examine their own role in facilitation of fraud.

We could use your support! Real boots-on-the-ground Elections Investigators, small business owners using our own money to clean up the local and state Election process, training poll watchers for what to spot, learning the Election Codes and Advisory Codes, getting them to you, making real game plans for action, and getting results, slow as they may be.
Hard when its only a few of us spending our own money! We appreciate your interest!
