Vote Fraud Documented, is Significant, Affected 2020 Outcome
« Reply #2700 on: February 07, 2024, 12:10:46 PM »
Heartland released a major report re voter fraud. Key findings include:

The results of our analysis are outlined below.
• 28.2 percent fraud
o Trump wins Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
o Trump wins the Electoral College 311-227.
• 27 percent fraud through 14 percent fraud
o From 27 percent fraud down through 14 percent, the overall results are identical to the 28.2 percent fraud scenario (though Trump’s margin of victory in each state shrinks as the overall mail-in ballot fraud integer shrinks).
• 13 percent fraud through 6 percent fraud
o Trump wins Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, but loses to Biden in Michigan and Nevada.
o Trump wins the Electoral College 289-249. • 5 percent fraud and 4 percent fraud
o Trump wins Arizona, Georgia, and Wisconsin, but loses to Biden in Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania.
o Trump and Biden tie the Electoral College 269-269. As described in more detail
in the paper, Trump would likely have won the resulting vote in the House of Representatives, because Republicans controlled more state delegations in the wake of the 2020 election.

• 3 percent fraud
o Trump wins Arizona and Georgia, but loses to Biden in Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
o Biden wins the Electoral College 279-259. • 2 percent fraud and 1 percent fraud
o Trump does not win any states. Biden wins Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
o Biden wins the Electoral College 306-232.

interesting that only 4 to 5 % fraud would have given Trump the election

we know the LEFT response :

however,

there is No proof of fraud.

I admit we have not met the bar of proof other then irregularities.

The whole point of not having a chain of custody is as a practical matter to make have proof of fraud impossible.

right !

and mail in ballots or drop box ballots makes a real chain of custody control near impossible.

• 21 percent of mail-in voters admitted that in
2020 they voted in a state where they are “no longer a permanent resident.”

• 21 percent of mail-in voters admitted that they
filled out a ballot for a friend or family member

• 17 percent of mail-in voters said they signed
a ballot for a friend or family member “with or
without his or her permission.”

• 19 percent of mail-in voters said that a friend or
family member filled out their ballot, in part or in
full, on their behalf.

"After analyzing the raw survey data, we were also
able to conclude that 28.2 percent of respondents
who voted by mail admitted to committing at least
one kind of voter fraud. This means that more than
one-in-four ballots cast by mail in 2020 were likely
cast fraudulently, and thus should not have been
counted.

Because Joe Biden received significantly more mail-in votes than Donald Trump, we conclude that the 2020 election outcome would have been different in the key swing states that Donald Trump lost  by razor thin margins."


[Doug]  That portion seems high, 28% of mail-in was fraud.  Only 6% needs to "proven" - and apparently it won't be.

Yes Virginia, there Really are Non-Citizens that are Voting
« Reply #2711 on: February 20, 2024, 12:49:58 PM »
Among other points this piece makes is that there if little funding available to study the question, a feature rather than a bug, methinks:

Why would a president running for reelection refuse to meet with the Speaker of the House to discuss a national crisis that most voters blame on the president himself? This would be regarded as bizarre behavior under any circumstances, but it’s particularly perverse considering that the crisis in question is illegal immigration — the signature issue of Biden’s probable challenger in November. Moreover, according to the RealClearPolitics polling average, 63 percent of the voters disapprove of the way he has handled immigration. Yet Biden refuses to discuss the problem. It’s almost as if he thinks it somehow works to his advantage.

Democrats may well have reached the conclusion that they can’t stay in power with legal votes by natural born or naturalized citizens.
What benefit would Biden gain by letting millions of illegal immigrants into the country? House speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) provided the answer during a recent appearance on Fox Business Network’s Mornings with Maria Bartiromo: “I genuinely believe that originally the idea was to bring people in, open the border, have the flow come in and turn them into voters, there’s no other reason that seems to make sense.” This has been dismissed as a conspiracy theory by the White House and its allies in the media. Yet Biden has often made public statements that suggest Johnson is right. In 2016, when he was Vice President, he put it thus:

You know, 11 million people live in the shadows. I believe they’re already American citizens. Teddy Roosevelt said it better: “Americanism is not a question of birthplace or creed or a line of descent. It’s a question of principles, idealism, and character.” These people are just waiting for a chance to contribute fully. And by that standard, 11 million undocumented aliens are already Americans, in my view. All they want — they just want a decent life for their kids, a chance to contribute to a free society, a chance to put down roots and help build the next great American century.

Setting aside Biden’s implausibly low estimate of the “undocumented alien” population (researchers from Yale and MIT estimate the actual 2016 figure was more like 22.1 million), the key words that relate to voting are “contribute fully.” It will come as no surprise that serious research into how many of Biden’s “citizens” vote is very much discouraged in academia. In 2014, for example, a peer-reviewed article authored by Jesse T. Richman and Gushan A. Chattha, both of Old Dominion University, and David C. Earnest of George Mason University estimated that about 25 percent of non-citizens were registered to vote in 2008 and 2010. Moreover, they suggest that as many as 2.8 million of them actually voted. (READ MORE from David Catron: Biden’s Sound and Fury)

Inevitably, the “vote fraud is rare” crowd descended on the authors of the study like so many flying monkeys. Their criticisms predictably focus on when and why they published their study rather than its findings. They suggest the study was purposely produced to provide fuel to “conspiracy theorists.” They also accuse the authors of timing it to affect the 2014 midterms. The article was published in the online version of Electoral Studies on September 21 — about five weeks before Election Day. It’s unlikely that this publication is included in the regular reading of your average voter. Richman and Earnest wrote a lengthy response to their critics in the Washington Post. Its general thrust is captured in the following passage:

Our blog post and article on non-citizen voting have reached a wide audience, and have motivated several efforts to dispute our methods and conclusions … Although our estimates of non-citizen registration and voting are higher than previous estimates, this should not be surprising. To our knowledge, ours is the first study to use survey data to estimate non-citizen voting, while other studies have relied upon incidents of detected vote fraud. Estimates of illegal behavior based upon survey data are frequently higher than estimates based upon detection rates.

This final point is driven home by the known level of detection rates for illegal voting. The Heritage Foundation maintains an Election Fraud Database that presents a sampling of recent instances of election fraud cases that have resulted in convictions. It does not purport to be exhaustive but it does contain the details of 1,276 criminal convictions many involving large scale ballot harvesting operations, vote buying schemes, and ineligible voting by non-citizens. However, because academic grant money for major research into any kind of election fraud is all but nonexistent, serious studies like the one discussed above are rarely conducted, leaving most American voters in the dark about how many illegal immigrants vote. (READ MORE: Trump’s Swing State Challenge)

All of which brings us back to President Biden’s refusal to meet with House Speaker Mike Johnson about the border crisis. In May of 2023, the Republican House passed H.R. 2, the “Secure the Border Act,” which would codify the mechanisms used by former President Trump to successfully control the border. It has been collecting dust in the Democrat-controlled Senate for nine months. Meanwhile, the Senate has produced an alternative bill that would make the current border crisis permanent. This is the legislation Biden supports. Typically, the President would meet with the House Speaker and work out a compromise. The White House, however, says there is nothing to negotiate. It’s Biden’s way or the highway. (READ MORE: Is This What Biden Meant By ‘Unity’?)

Or is it Biden’s way? During the Fox interview discussed above, House Speaker Mike Johnson said, “I don’t think he’s allowed to do it. I’m not sure Biden’s actually making these decisions.” This may be true, but it is by no means inconsistent with his past positions. Biden and the Democrats may well have reached the conclusion that they can’t stay in power with legal votes by natural born or naturalized citizens. If so, it means they see uncontrolled illegal immigration as a feature rather than a bug of the Biden administration’s border policy. In the end, they couldn’t care less who votes as long as they remain in power.

AZ House of Representative passes bill ending no excuse mail ballots and
« Reply #2726 on: March 04, 2024, 08:49:53 AM »
(4) ARIZONA PASSES BILL TO ROLL BACK NO-EXCUSE MAIL-IN BALLOTS: The Arizona House of Representatives passed House Bill 2876, which will end no-excuse mail-in ballots and reestablish voting precincts, by a 31-28 party-line vote.
Arizona Rep. Michael Carbone (R) said the bill will make Arizona’s election system more like Florida and Illinois and ensure election results are released in a timely manner.
Why It Matters: The Arizona GOP is attempting to curtail electoral strategies like ballot harvesting by rolling back COVID-era election laws passed in other key battleground states, and likely helped the Biden campaign win in 2020. The Arizona GOP has lost previous efforts to change election laws through the courts, which say federal law blocks states from enforcing “documentary citizenship” for federal elections. While Trump is ahead of Biden in national and battleground state polling, these COVID-era election laws are very likely a deciding factor in the 2024 election and increase the chances of a Biden victory. – R.C.

Yes Trump is up a few % in the polls, but it is election rigging as above that we all know can erase his lead
over the election voting period which used to be one day but in many areas is not a lot longer.

We will need to win under their rules in order to reset the rules to normal.

That's why I've been harping on finding and sticking to 60-40 issues. 50.1 - 49.9 isn't going to do it.

I voted yesterday.  No ID. No photo.  I brought in nothing but my car key and scribbled something on the screen that said I understood the rules and consequences.  In mid-afternoon I was the 100th to vote out of 1200 eligible.

If I (someone else) did that in 10 other precincts, who would know.

Logic, honesty, truth will not work .

I've watched the get-out-the-vote operation in the inner city.  They assume a) people are too lazy (and ambivalent) to get out and vote on their own, and b) that if they could get them out they would all vote Democrat.

That's changing:
https://www.wsj.com/articles/bidens-worst-nightmare-blacks-and-hispanics-for-trump-economy-2024-presidential-election-fbbe674c

Today your stereotyped Dem voter is the academic elite, the black lives matter rabble rouser, and Doug's friends and their wives with their MSNBC and NYT taking it all in.  Point is, they already vote.  And they aren't excited about the current direction.  Even lesbians know they are getting screwed by Leftism (pardon the terminology) with the destruction going on of women's sports. 

Inner city blacks haven't been excited about Democrats since Barack Obama was a Senator running against entrenched powers.  He proved it didn't matter. Nothing in their lives improved. It improved more under Trump. Now Hispanics are trending Trump and Republican. The working people of Wisc, Mich, Ohio, Pennsylvania are all trending R.  Farmers, all R.  Tradesmen like plumbers etc: Republican.  The battleground is the college educated suburbs. (And they already know how to vote.) 

The activists go around and say to the welfare recipients, vote for us or Republicans will take away your benefits.  And poor people who actually do work a part time job or two can say back to them, you're making it so we can't afford to eat, drive or get housing.

Fighting New Jersey’s Ballot Bosses
The race to replace Sen. Bob Menendez shouldn’t involve skewed ballots.

Sometimes election meddling takes place in plain view. Consider New Jersey’s “party line” ballots, which let county bosses put their favored primary candidates front and center, relegating the rest to the periphery. A lawsuit in this year’s Senate race is asking for ballots based on fairness, instead of orders from the local heavy.

Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez, who is under indictment for an alleged bribe, might still seek re-election, but his support has collapsed, and he faces a bevy of challengers in the June primary. One candidate is Tammy Murphy, who enjoys strong relationships with county leaders, thanks to her even stronger relationship with the state’s Governor, who happens to be her husband, Phil Murphy.

That made her the favorite to win prime ballot placement. In 19 of the state’s 21 counties, party committees endorse a slate of candidates for office that are grouped together on the ballot, often in the same column. That usually includes current officeholders and other insiders. The rest are printed in other columns that can run to the edge of the ballot, giving voters the impression that they’re fringe candidates.

That’s why Rep. Andy Kim, who’s also running for the Senate, has filed a federal lawsuit against the counties. His complaint says that party-line ballots violate the First and 14th Amendments by denying candidates “equal protection” in seeking office, while denying citizens their right to a fair choice in the voting booth. New Jersey’s system of preferential treatment, he argues, doesn’t “belong anywhere near a government-sponsored ballot.”

Mr. Kim can point to plenty of evidence of the party line’s distorting effects. A researcher at Rutgers reviewed election results from 2002 to 2022 and found 45 primaries where county endorsements diverged. Candidates gained at least 13 additional percentage points when they were on the party line, with an average bump of 38 points.

New Jersey’s system is an outlier, even among ballot designs being disputed in court. In Mecinas v. Hobbs (2022), a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals panel found that the Democratic National Committee had standing to challenge an Arizona ballot that sorted candidates based on their parties’ previous vote tallies. The effect of New Jersey’s skewed ballots is worse than that, with names positioned based on local leaders’ whims.

The irony of Mr. Kim’s suit is that he’s no longer an underdog. A Monmouth University poll last week found that 48% of Democrats have a favorable view of him, compared with 24% for Ms. Murphy. He’s even winning over some of those party bosses. Committees in six counties have endorsed him, compared with four for Ms. Murphy. His fairness campaign has caught on with the public, yet it might be shaming party leaders into picking him instead of fixing the problem.

The first hearing in the lawsuit is set for March 18, about a month before early ballots will be mailed for the June 4 primary. Even if Mr. Kim’s suit doesn’t help him, it could benefit voters if it ensures they someday get ballots that lay out the choices without a firm suggestion from the local party.

WV Secretary of State & candidate for governor lays it all out re electoral interference, “progressive” orgs that underwrite it, and the federal government—including spooks—that stole the last election:

The secretary of state has tightened election security in West Virginia and condemned federal intelligence agencies’ election meddling.

M.D. KITTLE

Ensuring the integrity of West Virginia’s elections is part of Mac Warner’s job, but the secretary of state has been just as zealous about protecting national elections from unfair meddling.

Now in his second term as the Mountain State’s top election official, Warner has cleaned up West Virginia’s bloated voter rolls and severed the state’s ties with leftist-linked voter roll groups. Even political opponents have credited Warner, who is running for governor as a Republican, with being “vigilant” to make West Virginia elections “very secure.”

Warner, 69, has also crusaded against federal intelligence agencies’ meddling in the controversial 2020 presidential election — an election the conservative unabashedly asserts was “stolen by the CIA.” Such statements have earned him the ire of corporate media outlets, which, as dutiful public-relations agents for the Democrat Party, have dubbed the secretary of state an “election denier.”

“Secretary Warner’s work on election integrity and security has set the example for what is needed right now across this entire country,” Ret. Lt. General Michael Flynn, war hero and former national security adviser for President Donald Trump, said in endorsing Warner in West Virginia’s 2024 GOP primary race for governor. Flynn, in case you’re scoring along at home, had his life and reputation ripped apart by Democrats and their allies in the deep state and accomplice media as part of their Russia-collusion hoax. 

Calling Out the ‘Worst Election Interference’ in U.S. History

Warner has been the rare voice among his peers in vehemently calling out the Big Brother censorship operation known as the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).

“When we have our own federal agencies lying to the American people, that’s the most insidious thing that we can do in elections,” Warner told officials from the FBI and CISA on a panel at the February meeting of the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS) in Washington, D.C., according to Wired’s Eric Geller. While Geller did his best to defend the federal agency — under the suggestive headline, “How a Right-Wing Controversy Could Sabotage US Election Security” — its history of censorship and election interference validate Warner’s concern.

CISA, as The Federalist has extensively reported, was established in 2018 to ostensibly “protect ‘critical infrastructure’ and guard against cybersecurity threats.” It moved into the nefarious business of information management by partnering with Big Tech to silence speech that it deemed to be “disinformation,” “misinformation,” or the Orwellian-sounding “malinformation.” CISA labored behind the scenes to censor those who questioned everything from the administration of the 2020 elections to the government’s iron-fisted handling of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Warner spoke out against the agency and the federal intelligence apparatus in late December during a West Virginia Republican gubernatorial candidates debate. He was, of course, vilified by the usual suspects for asserting the Covid-tainted 2020 election was “rigged.”

“The election was stolen,” Warner said, “and it was stolen by the CIA.”

To explain what he meant, Warner cited forming Acting CIA Director Michael Morell’s testimony under oath to the House Judiciary Committee that then-Biden campaign adviser Antony Blinken had “reached out” to Morell after a damning story sourced to Hunter Biden’s laptop broke. Blinken’s outreach, Morell testified, “set in motion the events that led to the issuance of” a letter attempting to discredit the laptop story.

“Yes, [Morell] colluded with [now-Secretary of State] Antony Blinken to sell a lie to the American people two weeks before the election for the very purpose of throwing the presidential election,” Warner explained. “And the FBI covers it up. And Mark Zuckerberg pays $400 million to put his thumb on the scales. That’s not fair.”

Morrell told the Judiciary Committee that he pushed the letter, which was signed by 51 former intelligence officials, to help then-presidential candidate Joe Biden, “because I wanted him to win the election.” The letter, released not long before the 2020 general election, falsely claimed that the New York Post’s bombshell report exposing the damning contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop appeared to be “Russian disinformation.”

Warner also noted the unprecedented use of Zuckbucks — hundreds of millions of dollars in donations to leftist groups by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg — to infiltrate swing state elections offices in 2020.

The West Virginia secretary of state has courageously spoken out against such alarming practices and other forms of election interference.

“Folks, this was the worst election interference in the history of the United States, when our own 3-letter agencies lied to the people of America with the expressed intent of throwing a presidential election. It doesn’t get any worse than that,” Warner said during a press conference last summer on the U.S. Capitol steps in support of the American Confidence in Elections Act. The legislative package “equips states with election integrity tools, implements key reforms in D.C., and protects political speech,” according to a press release from House Administration Committee Chairman Bryan Steil, a Wisconsin Republican.

Cleanup at the State Level

Warner hasn’t just made election integrity a priority on the national scale. Since he was elected in 2016, West Virginia has cleaned up its voter rolls, removing more than 400,000 names of voters who died, moved, were convicted felons, or showed up multiple times in voter registration records, Warner told the West Virginia Record’s readers. When he entered office, Warner said, he heard from county clerks about the bloated voter rolls, including four counties where the number of registered voters was greater than the number of eligible voters who lived in those counties.

Last year, West Virginia joined a growing list of states in rejecting the controversial Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC). The interstate voter list “maintenance” organization has come under fire for its mission creep voter registration efforts and its leftist leadership, including ERIC founder and Democrat operative David Becker. In his column for the West Virginia Record last June, Warner noted ERIC’s usefulness has “significantly decease[d].” Data-sharing agreements with bordering states will “prove more effective,” he wrote.

One of Warner’s opponents in the governor’s race praised the secretary of state’s leadership on securing the state’s elections.

“I believe that if every state would conduct their elections like we do here, we wouldn’t be having this discussion,” Moore Capito, son of U.S. Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, said during a December debate in which the moderator demanded the Republican candidates answer whether they believe the 2020 election was “stolen.”

Attorney and election law expert Cleta Mitchell called Warner a “national hero and a treasure.”

“He speaks the truth — he is a true patriot and I only wish we had 50 state election officials just like him,” Mitchell told The Federalist.

Warner appreciates the kind words, but he says he’s just doing his job.

“I just want good and fair elections,” he recently told The Federalist.

Forward Observer: Serious danger lurking in the Congressional weeds

(1) DEMOCRATS MOVE TO TAKE FEDERAL CONTROL OF ELECTIONS: Senate Democrats are pushing to pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act, which passed the House in 2021, if Democrats take control of the Senate in 2025.
Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC) said the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act is an attempt to “rewrite federal law in a fashion that would make it harder for states to implement voter verification.”
Public Interest Legal Foundation litigation counsel Maureen Riordan said the act would “take the state’s rights from them” and give “tremendous power to partisan bureaucrats” over elections.
Why It Matters: House Republicans do not have an avenue to rescind passage of the bill in the House. Senate Democrats have pushed to kill the legislative filibuster, allowing Senate bills to pass with a simple majority vote. Meanwhile, the new Judicial Conference rule on venue shopping seems to bring conservative political challenges to this law and other federal election regulations into more friendly courts to the DOJ Voting Section. – R.C.

Barry County MI sheriff sends evidence to Jim Jordan

Sheriff Dar Leaf Announces Investigation into Michigan 2020 Election: Claims Possession of “Sensitive Documents” Tied to Dominion Employees and High-Profile Figures Including Jocelyn Benson and Dana Nessel — Accuses Muskegon County Prosecutor of Attempting to Usurp His Ongoing Investigation
By Jim Hᴏft Mar. 10, 2024 8:00 am

Barry County Sheriff Dar Leaf announced that he has launched an investigation into the handling of the Michigan 2020 election, implicating Dominion Voting Systems officials, Michigan’s Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, Attorney General Dana Nessel, computer scientist J. Alex Halderman, and others in potential misconduct.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported in 2022 that Sheriff Dar Leaf filed a lawsuit against the lawless and obstructive actions of Attorney General Dana Nessel, who regularly mocks and threatens her political opponents, together with Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, who’s blocked the efforts of citizens and law enforcement to investigate voter fraud and voter irregularities related to the 2020 election.

The Barry County Sheriff is also suing MI Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s henchman, Jonathan Brater.

Jonathan Brater is Michigan’s Director of Elections, a member of the executive branch of state government, and an employee of the state. As director of elections, Mr. Brater is “vested with the powers and shall perform the duties of the secretary of state under his or her supervision, with respect to the supervision and administration of the election laws.”

The lawsuit states that Attorney General Nessel, who has no accountability to the Barry County Electorate, and even less authority to encroach upon the law enforcement functions of a constitutional sheriff, has committed a flagrant violation of constitutional and statutory laws by usurping the power of Sheriff Dar Leaf by obstructing, impeding, prejudging the ability of a duly elected official to conduct a criminal investigation into allegations of criminal acts related to the 2020 election and voting.

Critical Medications Every American Can Have On Hand (Including Ivermectin) – And How To Get Them Prescribed

Defendants, without authority, encroached upon Sheriff Dar Leaf’s duties by obstructing and interfering with his lawful investigation, obstructing justice in the process, and covering up evidence and crimes, including those that they themselves were involved in and conspired with others to commit.

Defendants usurped and otherwise obstructed an elected constitutional officer and prevented him from performing his constitutional, statutory, and common-law duties as County Sheriff in accordance with the Michigan Constitution, and state and federal laws.

Defendants, without legitimate authority, also unconstitutionally and unlawfully confiscated property, documents, and information (including voting machines with its attendant software, programs, and data), all of which was required to be sealed, preserved, protected, and retained by federal law.

Defendants acted in concert or individually to transfer and reallocate the duties and powers of the Plaintiff, usurping his power and removing from him or otherwise preventing his ability to perform his constitutional and statutory duties.

Defendants acts included but are not limited to threatening, harassing, and interfering with witnesses, local government officials (including township clerks), deputies, agents, and experts, and interfering with, obstructing, and otherwise defiling investigative works and the results of such works; confiscating and/or destroying confidential files and information pertaining to an ongoing investigation; unconstitutionally and unlawfully (and without the proper procedure) usurping Plaintiff’s law enforcement functions and authorities, which are exclusively reserved to him under Michigan common law and statutory law; stepping in to quell an ongoing legitimate investigation, confiscating confidential files and documents related thereto; obstructing, harassing, and/or threatening his deputies and agents conducting the law enforcement function on his behalf as they are allowed to do exclusively and with immunity under Michigan law, confiscating voting equipment and information and data that is required by federal law to be protected and preserved.

On or about November 3, 2020, Plaintiff Barry County Sheriff Dar Leaf received information that election fraud and voting machine fraud was taking place in Barry County, Michigan, before, during, and after the November 2020 election.

Pursuant to his exclusive common-law and statutory duties to investigate and ferret out criminal activity occurring within his county, Sheriff Leaf opened an investigation.



On Thursday, Sheriff Leaf received a subpoena from the office of Muskegon County Prosecutor D.J. Hilson, ordering him to present his law enforcement files at the Oakland County courthouse with less than 24 hours’ notice.

Leaf has expressed reluctance to comply fully with the subpoena, citing concerns over compromising his department’s ongoing investigation.

Sheriff Leaf asserts that his department possesses sensitive documents, including email communications that suggest Dominion employees directed Serbian foreign nationals to remotely access Michigan’s election system before the certification of the 2020 election results.

These documents include emails that allegedly corroborate evidence contained in expert reports of foreign access to Michigan election equipment.

In addition to the allegations against Dominion, Sheriff Leaf’s files reportedly contain communications from J. Alex Halderman, a University of Michigan Professor of Computer Science and Engineering, who offered assistance to Dominion employees implicated in the investigation.

Halderman is accused of failing to disclose significant security breaches in Michigan’s election equipment and of concealing evidence pertinent to the case.


Recall that Halderman was the same person who was able to HACK A DOMINION VOTING MACHINE to change the tabulation In Front Of U.S. District Judge Amy Totenberg in the courtroom! Halderman USED ONLY A PEN TO CHANGE VOTE TOTALS!

Also, Sheriff Leaf disclosed that his office and central dispatch experienced a network outage on the day of the subpoena, leading to suspicions of an attempt to obstruct the investigation.

The Gateway Pundit spoke with Sheriff Dar Leaf who confirmed to us that the letter was his and is accurate.

Transcript of the affidavit by Barry County Sheriff Dar Leaf:
On March 7th 2024, at approximately 10:45 AM, I, sheriff Dar Leaf, received a subpoena for my law enforcement file no 21-2216 from DJ Hilson’s office.

This subpoena demanded that I appear at 1200 N Telegraph Rd. Pontiac MI with my law enforcement files with less than 24 hour notice and not time to appear.

My office currently has an ongoing investigation as it relates to dominion CEO John Poulos, Dominion employees and contractors, Jocelyn Benson, Dana Nessle, J. Alex Halderman, and others.

My department is in possession of sensitive documents that are part of an ongoing investigation involving Dominion employees. These Dominion employees directed, and tasks Serbian foreign nationals to remotely access the Michigan election system. I am not willing to compromise my investigation by providing my entire file. I am attaching to this affidavit several emails to demonstrate to this Honorable Court that this is a very serious ongoing investigation.

The emails in my file cooperate evidence contained in expert reports in my possession. These expert reports prove foreign access to Michigan election equipment prior to certification of the November 3rd 2020 election.

In addition to Dominion emails, I’m in possession of emails from J. Alex Halderman, SOS Jocelyn Benson’s expert witness on the Antrim County civil litigation. The e-mail from J. Alex Halderman offers to help the Dominion employees, the same ones tasking the foreign nationals to enter the Michigan election system prior to certification, by rebutting statements made by president trump on television.

J. Alex Halderman failed to report and disclose the serious remote security breaches to the election equipment identified by expert experts on the Antrim County case, and he concealed and hid significant evidence that is addressed in the “Halderman Rebuttal” expert reports. Further, he incorrectly dismissed the vote shifting that occurred in Antrim blaming the local clerk for “human error” when in fact the correct, and corroborating vote shifting explanation as explained in the “Rebuttal Report” and corroborated with Dominion emails. [exhibit 1].

I intend to file a motion to Quash the subpoena attached as well as a civil lawsuit against the Muskegon County prosecutor D. J. Hilson for attempting to usurp my investigation. D. J. Hilson worked with AG Dana Nessel and successfully buried the Muskegon County fraud that is now under investigation by the FBI. The Muskegon County Prosecutor failed to appropriately prosecute as requested by the Muskegon Police Department.

Moreover, this court should know that my office and our central dispatch had our network line go down on March 7th 2024 at about 4:00 AM through March 7th 2024 until approximately 5:23 PM. Attorney Lambert has been working for me, and my office, since December of 2020, and I believe this subpoena is an attempt to obstruct delay my very serious investigation.

New Dominion in AZ Voter Fraud Evidence?
« Reply #2748 on: March 21, 2024, 11:39:36 AM »
Kari Lake is petitioning the SCOTUS to review new voter fraud evidence:

Patrick Byrne
@PatrickByrne
UPPERCUT DELIVERED AT SCOTUS!!

(Please retweet)

Kari Lake‘s case against machines in 2024 was dismissed by a federal court in Arizona on the grounds that it was “too speculative“. Ninth circuit upheld that absurd decision on appeal.

Last week Kari Lake/Kurt Olsen filed at SCOTUS an appeal.

Last NIGHT they filed the appendix with stunning new evidence. (found in the links below).

Here are some key points:

1. Maricopa County’s election software used in the 2020 and 2022 elections has been altered with respect to the machine behavior settings that govern how ballots are read and tabulated.

2.  The EAC never approved this altered software, and Maricopa’s many previous representations that this election software is EAC certified, including to the AZ Senate, are false.

3. Knowingly modifying election software without approval or certification pursuant to 16-442 is a felony under AZ law. See 16–1004(B).

4.  Dominion’s operative contract with Maricopa states “Data generated by the Democracy Suite Platform, including results reporting, is protected by the deployment of FIPS approved symmetric AES encryption.”

5. But, Dominion placed the master cryptographic keys in plain text and unprotected on the election database except for Windows-login, which are easily bypassed. Leaving these highly sensitive cryptographic keys in this state violates all cyber security protocols and allows a malicious actor to take control of the machine and change results without detection.

6.  As Mr. Cotton stated in his declaration “It is like a bank having the most secure vault in the world, touting how secure it is to the public and then taping the combination in large font type on the wall next to the vault door.”

7.  Given all of these findings, none of these machines can be trusted to give reliable results in 2024.

This appendix is supposed to contain the new evidence. I haven't been able to view yet as it requries Telegram to be installed and I already have a bunch of apps in queue to DL:
