Were Ohio's Voting Machines Legally 'Certified' for Use in 2020 Election?

"The Board of Advisors supposedly exists to assist the EAC in setting standards and guidelines to help states comply with the Help America Vote Act (HAVA) through their certification program. Oddly enough, . . . the accreditations for the election equipment testing labs, Pro V&V and SLI Compliance, had lapsed. The lapse in accreditation effectively shut down the ability of all states to legally certify their election systems as required by HAVA. No vendors, anyone in the EAC, or anyone on their Board of Advisors appeared to have noticed this indefensible oversight. As a result, most of the country's election systems were not legally "certified" for the 2020 election."
