Then you're destined to collapse and be thrown into the back of an SUV like a side of beef from "flu and heatstroke" on a brisk, late summer morning :-) .
If they used an app for multiple overwrite for permanent deletion, that would seem powerful evidence of criminal intent. Either way it wasn't a smart move. If it can be recovered, that will show what they were trying to hide. If they went to the extreme of permanent overwrite, it shows criminal intent. Maybe Hillary is powerful enough to get away with it. But they ain't Hillary.
I believe Trump knew they would cheat and he and the whitehats captured all this activity live on election night. I believe Colonel Waldren or someone similar said they watched the election data live on election night and watched the fraud occur before their eyes. All recorded.
The period from November 3rd until now has been all about marking down who is a Patriot and who is a Traitor. Notice the Rinos are fully outing themselves. They are declaring their hatred for Trump, which is really hatred for us, over and over now. I hope they do start a new party. It will be the easiest way to kick them all out.
It also depends a lot on what media is being used. Magnetic hard drives leave a shadow of the previous writes to the drive behind even after they are overwritten. If you use a different more sensitive read head you can go back as far as 5-10 writes prior. Think of it like peeling back layers of an onion. It takes a lot of time and effort but data can be recovered.
If its memory sticks or solid state drives there are similar processes but I know a lot less about those. Software like bleachbit write random crap over and over to destroy the traces left behind. It also does so in random patterns and numbers of writes. That way instead of knowing for sure the 1st or 2nd the last write is the data you need you have no idea which layer is the data required. That's per sector across thousands of sectors. It becomes a jumbled mess that is next to impossible to reconstruct.
When software like that is set to write junk 10 or even 20 times it doesn't just make a mess it writes over the same spot so many times even the shadow of the shadow is now gone. Its pretty much the only way to use software to truly destroy data. Everything else is physical like degausing the drive with an insanely strong magnetic field or smashing the media part of the drive with a hammer. FYI hard drive platters are carcinogenic so play with them/destroy them with hammers at your own risk.
Deleting a file "permanently"(putting it in the trash then flushing the trash folder) on a magnetic hard drive is the real world equivalent of ripping a piece of paper into eight pieces, wadding it up, and tossing it in the trash can by your desk. There are literally dozens of private companies and crime labs all over the country that can just uncrinkle it and tape it back to 99% the same as it was before.
In some cases there are just tools you can use that will recover the data. Newer hard drives read/write heads are way more sensitive than they used to be a decade ago when I last had to recover a drive. That's assuming the data was overwritten at least once. When most OS "delete" something all they do at first is remove the pointers that say where the data is freeing up those sectors to have new data written on them. There are TONS of recovery tools that a high school computer wiz could manage to use to recover data like that.
Meaning if all they did was power up the machine delete the data and turn it off the data is all still there. A recovery tool will just rebuild the pointers and poof its recovered. If that's what they did then all they really did is add a new charge. Destruction of evidence...
Can the data be restored?
Depends on how it was erased.
If someone thought dragging the files to a trash bin was enough, then yes. If they used something like bleachbit, more than likely not.

She looks like she’s being arrested.
She was wearing handcuffs.
You'd need to use an acid wash, I hear.
also depends if the drives were magnetic or ssds

You know these idiots didn't 1/0 those databases. They deleted them as quickly as they could.
"We have it all."
Much more efficient than my post below! You must be a programmer. I really need to learn to code.
yeah you should, we need more based programmers
Username checks out. I'm slowly studying Python, myself.
Agreed, no need to try and recover it, because they already have it!!

NCSWIC. Nothing.
Shouldn't matter.
If you can't prove who people voted for then it's like the election never happened.

and Q was right... these people are stupid.
