Election Corruption

Election Whistleblower: I was driving completed ballots from New York to Pennsylvania

Election whistleblowers arenow coming forward with stories of fraud from the Nov. 3rd election. A truck driver was one of three who spoke out today about what caused them to be suspicious: Jesse Morgan, a truck driver with USPS subcontractor says he was suspicious of his cargo load of 288,000 COMPLETED ballots: https://twitter.com/i/status/1333873636135084034 “I was driving completed ballots from New York to Pennsylvania. I didn’t know, so I decided to speak up.” Colonel Tony Shaffer spoke out about the brave USPS subcontractor Jesse Morgan’s story of 280,000 ballots shipped from Bethpage, NY to Lancaster, PA: “We have evidence of a MASSIVE transfer of completed, curated ballots ready to be injected into counting centers.” https://twitter.com/i/status/1333875528009453574

USPS whistleblowers allege illegal activity with ballots before election

A conservative law firm says that several whistleblowers from the United States Postal Service have come forward, alleging that thousands of ballots in some states were backdated, tampered with, or tossed out ahead of the 2020 election, to the disservice of President Trump, despite the Justice Department announcing Tuesday it has found no proof of widespread voter fraud. The Amistad Project of the Thomas More Society, which has forged ahead with an independent investigation of alleged voter fraud in several key battleground states that Trump lost, has claimed that the FBI asked them to turn over their findings to their Los Angeles Field Office. The FBI told Fox News that it’s their “standard practice to neither confirm nor deny the existence of investigations. As such, we will decline further comment.” On Tuesday, the Amistad Project said that multiple “whistleblowers” lobbed serious accusations of “multi-state illegal efforts by USPS workers to influence the election in at least three of six swing states.” “Details include potentially hundreds of thousands of completed absentee ballots being transported across three state lines, and a trailer filled with ballots disappearing in Pennsylvania,” the group said. One subcontractor alleged that over 100,000 ballots were improperly backdated on the day after the election so that they would be counted in Wisconsin, while another said they witnessed a vendor of Dominion machines and election officials in Pennsylvania tampering with voter machines. The claims bear similarities to debunked lawsuits filed by the Trump campaign in Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada, Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Georgia, alleging voter fraud in the presidential election. Attorneys for Trump have alleged, among other things, that Republicans were denied the opportunity to observe the canvassing process, with Trump claiming they have “hundreds and hundreds of affidavits” of witnesses’ personal stories to back their argument up. However, the so-called proof has not been presented during numerous court hearings, with judges repeatedly ruling against the Trump campaign in most of those states. On Tuesday, Attorney General William Barr, put a pin in Trump’s declaration of widespread voter fraud as well, telling the Associated Press in an interview that U.S. attorneys and FBI officials have been working to follow up on specific complaints and information they have received, but have not uncovered enough evidence that would change the outcome of the election.

If You Wanted to Rig Election 2020, You’d Do Exactly What Democrats Did

Larry O’Connor, Election 2020? This column does not in any way allege that Democrats, Joe Biden, the Mainstream media, Big Tech, or any other entrenched, left-leaning institution in this country rigged the 2020 election. God forbid anyone would think such a thing. If this column were to even come close to making such an assertion, it would be flagged, banned, and removed from social media platforms and other avenues of entry to this website in an effort to prevent the unwashed masses from informing themselves of the facts surrounding this past ballot process. So, let us repeat: This column does not accuse the Biden campaign or the Democratic Party of cheating in the 2020 election. Got it? That said if they were going to cheat…here’s what they would have done. First, they’d make sure that the voter rolls were full of ineligible voters. Deceased people, non-citizens, and people who have moved out of state would not be purged from the rolls, and there would be no mechanism in place to purge those ineligible voters. Further, they wouldn’t have any preemptive check to ensure that only eligible voters registered in the first place. For instance, you can’t get a job in this country without showing a passport, birth certificate, or green card for a standard I-9 form. This ensures that only people eligible to legally work here get a job. There is no such citizen check when you register to vote. It’s on the “honor system” that you are a legal citizen when you fill out your registration form. And, let’s face it, why would someone who breaks our immigration laws by entering, staying, and working in our country illegally ever break our election laws, too? That’s a solid policy there. Next, they’d modify existing election laws so that voters could mail-in ballots on a whim and not for a specific “absentee voting” reason. This way, in-person voting (the most secure kind of voting) would diminish, and mail-in voting (the least secure) would increase. Next, they’d send a ballot to every voter on the voter rolls regardless of whether they asked for an absentee ballot or not. This way, millions of live ballots are floating in the system and are outside the tight custodian controls of the election apparatus in your state. Now that they’ve hypothetically flooded the zone with millions of ballots that have been sent out to everyone, regardless of their eligibility to vote, they would need the policy to count every vote that came in, even votes that shouldn’t be counted. Here’s how they’d do that…again if they were to cheat. Not that this column would ever suggest that they did cheat. This is all just an academic exercise, you see? First, they’d count ballots without any careful check of the signatures on the ballot versus the signature on the voter’s registration. They’d then separate the envelopes and any other identifying documents from the ballots themselves and discard them. This would make it hard to verify the validity of each ballot and impossible to check for duplicates or dead voters. To add to the hypothetical cheat totals, they’d count ballots that were received after Election Day. Plus, you’d stop counting at a certain point so you could properly ascertain exactly how many votes you’d need to “find” to help your chosen candidate win the counting process. Next, you’d conduct the counting and verification process without any legitimate oversight. If you were really brazen, you’d keep election watchers 30 or 40 feet away from the processing area, or you’d even put giant sheets of poster board in the windows outside the processing room so that observers couldn’t see from the hallway outside your operation. Again, to reiterate, this column does not suggest that Biden or his party cheated or in any way rigged the process so that cheating could easily occur in the 2020 election. We are merely pointing out that if they wanted to cheat and rig the system…they’d do exactly what they did. And they did.

Newt Gingrich: I Never Thought the Election Would Be This Corrupt

President Donald Trump has long considered the American election process rigged for Democrats, but, according to former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, it might only get worse. “Not only do you have crooked politicians running crooked elections, but you have crooked . . . Internet companies deliberately censoring and biasing,” Gingrich told Sunday’s “The Cats Roundtable” on WABC 770 AM-N.Y. Unless this presidential election’s corruption is exposed, Republicans will face too many obstacles to winning a fair election in the future, Gingrich told host John Catsimatidis. “It’s not about Donald Trump,” Gingrich continued. “It’s about your right as an American citizen to assume that your vote is sacred – to assume that every legal vote will be counted, and that illegal votes will not be counted – because otherwise the illegal votes drowned out the legal votes and cheat the legal citizens of their right to representation. “I never thought it would be this corrupt.” Gingrich noted a “number of corporate lobbyists” in the prospective Biden administration “almost guarantees it may be the most corrupt administration since Harding in 1921.” “The Hunter Biden stuff is real,” he added. “The amount of money coming out of China, Russia and Ukraine is real. The degree to which all of that has been covered up is real. I think all of us have to recognize how serious a problem this is.” And now the two Jan. 5 Georgia Senate runoffs will be compromised, too, according to Gingrich. “Unless [Republicans] fix this, they’re going to have a hard time winning the election,” he concluded. “The Democrats have nominated two left-wingers who, in an honest election, could not possibly win an election. Therefore, the only hope the Democrats have is to find a way to steal it. “Given what they did in the presidential election, I think it’s a very great danger that they will find a way to steal it.”
