Georgia Governor Brian Kemp’s legal team has formally notified Georgia SOS Brad Raffensperger of recording and publishing factually false results concerning the 2020 Presidential Election, to include 17,852 INVALID “VOTES” recorded from Fulton County information alone. 17,852 INVALID “VOTES” were more than 4,000 “votes” MORE than necessary for President Trump to have won the State of Georgia in 2020.

The 2020 elections in Arizona have resulted in multiple election challenges, and voters who aware of the dubious nature of some of them might conclude that they are collectively “Much Ado About Nothing.” But at least one of the election lawsuits not only merits further consideration, it is worth the time of Arizona’s legal system to fully evaluate it instead of rushing to judgment. “Lake’s lawsuit is a Hail Mary that seems as much about the 2020 election as the 2022 election, and it will be tough to convince the judge not to dismiss it early in the process.” said...

During CNN’s coverage of the Georgia Senate runoff on Tuesday, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) reacted to Sen. Raphael Warnock’s (D-GA) victory in the runoff by stating the Warnock win was because “the state saw through whatever political lens they had” or “everything everyone’s been through with COVID and inflation all over the world. And they said, you know what, I believe Raphael Warnock is going to have my back and he’s going to help our country and he’s the right guy in terms of our democracy.” Klobuchar said, “A lot of this has to do with Donald Trump, I agree....

Nov. 28 was the deadline set by Arizona law for counties within the state to approve the official tally of votes for the 2022 election, a process that is also known as the canvass. For 2022, all Arizona counties, except one, have done so, despite pressure from some Republicans not to officially approve a vote count that had Democrats winning for U.S. Senate, governor and other statewide races. Initially, Republican supervisors in Mohave County postponed a certification vote until later Thursday after hearing comments from residents angry about problems with ballot printers in Maricopa County. The northwestern Arizona county, however,...

In middle school there were all these cheeky euphemisms for menstrual cycles. You might say that Aunt Flo was visiting, or that the crimson tide was coming in, or that you were riding the crimson wave. God forbid you called your period what it was, or said anything that could make boys aware that you had a body to tend. I was thinking of this, these euphemisms and this body apologia, late into the night of the midterm elections Tuesday. TV pundits remarked with apparent shock that the anticipated “red wave” — the Republican influx expected to overturn control of...

Last night in the 2022 Midterms the infamous “Drop and Roll” occurred in the Michigan Governor race just like it happened in the 2020 Presidential Election. In the Drop and Roll incidents identified in the 2020 election, we found that at around the point where 90% of the expected ballots were returned, a large batch of ballots was “dropped” with nearly every ballot for Joe Biden. These batches were as large as 330,000 ballots for Biden in Virginia in one single drop. The ballot drops were never questioned or challenged by Republican officials. Then after that point, nearly all of...

Last month, The Gateway Pundit reported on an anomaly discovered in a Tennessee county’s Dominion voting machines that caused a ballot, and all subsequent ballots, to be flagged as “provisional” ballots. This anomaly was discovered when tabulated votes didn’t reconcile with the number of voters who voted. The EAC wrote a report on this anomaly and, with the assistance of Dominion Voting, put a patch, not a fix, that reportedly bypassed the problem. A team of election integrity activists turned their sites to Georgia and discovered this same anomaly occurred in a majority of the counties they were able to...

DETROIT FRAUD ALERT: From @charlielangton. This is why we filed the lawsuit in Detroit. Voters show up -- only to be told they already voted absentee. It’s already happening. This is a CRIME, not an oversight. SHARE THIS EVERYWHERE. #LAWLESSELECTIONS

1,036 residents of Cobb County, Georgia, requested a mail-in ballot but never received it The deadline for some residents of Cobb County, Georgia, to return their mail-in ballots was extended by a judge on Monday after election officials failed to send out ballots to 1,036 people who requested them. Some of the affected voters filed a lawsuit over the weekend asking for an extension after election officials admitted that the mistake was due to an error on their part. "This is an important result for these Cobb County voters, who through no fault of their own did not receive the...

The Pennsylvania Department of State issued a memo on Friday telling election officials in all counties that a "widespread outage" is impacting Statewide Uniform Registry of Electors (SURE) services. This means that the voter databases, as maintained by the state, is essentially non-functioning as election day approaches. SURE is the state-wide system to maintain accurate voting records that county election officials can rely on when managing and facilitating polling places in their counties.

Another county in the state of Minnesota has sent voters erroneous ballots, bringing the total number of affected counties to four. In a filing with the Minnesota Supreme Court last Friday, Murray County Auditor-Treasurer Heidi Winter cited a “clerical error” as the reason why midterm general election ballots were distributed with outdated district numbers for the Minnesota Senate and House of Representatives races. Due to redistricting, Murray County’s state Senate and House district numbers were changed from 22 and 22A to 21 and 21A. But the ballots sent to voters were still printed with 22 and 22A. The filing states...

ORLANDO, Fla. – Earlier this month Gov. DeSantis signed an executive order making some election concessions to three counties ravaged by Hurricane Ian. Voting groups in the state are now calling on DeSantis to expand that order to almost 2 dozen other counties. The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan voting rights group, sent a letter Wednesday to DeSantis and Secretary of State Cord Byrd, asking for the extension. “Additional voting modifications are desperately needed across the state due to the domino effect of displacement. Many communities have been impacted and people have fled from their homes to different areas...

J. Alex Halderman, Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Michigan, claims to have identified a critical privacy flaw in the election infrastructure sold by Dominion Voting Systems in the United States. (snip) The researchers explain:This vulnerability is a privacy flaw and cannot directly modify results or change votes. Nevertheless, the secret ballot is an important security mechanism, and some voters—especially the most vulnerable in society—may face real or perceived threats of coercion unless the privacy of their votes is strongly protected.

The House on Wednesday passed a bill to reform the Electoral Count Act in ways Liz Cheney and other proponents say would clarify that the vice president's role in counting electoral votes is purely ceremonial, and is meant to head off future efforts to try to overturn election results. It cleared the chamber on a mostly party-line vote, 229-203, with nine Republicans joining all Democrats to vote for it, even as Republican leaders 'whipped' against the bill. ... The bill makes somewhat more extensive changes than a companion Senate version, which has gained the support of at least 10 Republican...

This is the wild tale of Michele Long Spears, initially the apparent loser who wound up winning an election by overcoming a “glitch” in the voting machines. IMO this is a highly under-reported story. After the contentious election in 2018 in a race that Stacey Abrams claimed was mismanaged, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger ordered the purchase of new voting machines from Dominion, and they came with a caveat. Cybersecurity experts and election integrity activists warn that the new machines suffer from many of the same problems as the old ones, including being vulnerable to hacking, and advocate for...

A federal district court judge in Michigan on Thursday denied Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s efforts to dismiss a lawsuit against her office for failing to remove deceased registrants from the state’s voter rolls. In November, the Public Interest Legal Foundation filed the suit, claiming their analysis determined 25,975 dead Michiganders were registered to vote as of August 2021. Of those, 23,663 had been dead for five or more years, while 17,479 had been dead for more than a decade and 3,596 had been dead for at least 20 years.

Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson has failed to convince a judge to dismiss a case that could force the state to remove 25,975 deceased people from its voter rolls. Benson moved for dismissal of a case brought against her in November 2021 by the Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) for her failure to clean up the state’s voter registration rolls—in an alleged violation of Section 8 of the National Voter Registration Act of 1993. On Aug. 25, Benson’s motion to dismiss the case was denied by the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan. The court also...

The South Carolina state election commission (SEC) is refusing to release voting records from 2020 in response to a citizen-led election-integrity group’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. And the clock is ticking. Election law allows the government to destroy those records on September 3, 2022, which marks 22 months since polls closed on November 3, 2020. In response to SEC’s refusal, six state legislators are rallying to their constituents’ aid with a letter to Attorney General Alan Wilson. Dated August 5 and published Wednesday at The Gateway Pundit, the letter explains that the “release of these records allows citizens...

ATLANTA — Prosecutors in Atlanta on Monday told lawyers for Rudy Giuliani that he’s a target of their criminal investigation into possible illegal attempts by then-President Donald Trump and others to interfere in the 2020 general election in Georgia, one of Giuliani’s lawyers said Monday. Special prosecutor Nathan Wade alerted Giuliani’s local attorney in Atlanta that the former New York City mayor could face criminal charges, another Giuliani attorney, Bob Costello said. News of the disclosure was first reported by The New York Times. Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis opened the investigation last year, and a special grand jury...
