Two Missouri clerks reported they were contacted by the Trump Department of Justice recently. The DOJ is seeking access to election machines used by the clerks in the 2020 election.
The two county clerks were contacted in recent weeks by Andrew McCoy “Mac” Warner, a Trump DOJ official.
According to far left Missouri reporter Jason Hancock at NPR the two clerks were identified as Jasper County Clerk Charlie Davis and McDonald County Clerk Jessica Cole.
Jasper County is a rural southwestern county in Missouri on the border with Kansas. It’s largest city is Joplin, Missouri. And the county seat is in Carthage, Missouri. This is a VERY red area in the Show Me state that went for Trump in 2020 72% to 26% to Joe Biden.
McDonald County is located in the southwest corner of southern Missouri. The county seat of this rural county is Pineville. McDonald County voted for President Trump 82.3 percent to 15.9 percent for Joe Biden.
President Trump won the former bellwether state by 15.4 percentage points in 2020 – it was too big to steal.
The Trump DOJ reportedly wants access to the voting machines in these two counties to physically inspect and possibly take into custody.
Charlie Davis told Jason Hancock that he was also contacted by Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft about the machines.
Davis said he replaced the machines after the 2020 election.
