ABC affiliate ‘mistakenly’ airs election results sparking conspiracy theories

An ABC affiliate has sparked wild conspiracy theories after mistakenly airing election results for Pennsylvania.

The results appeared on the ticker along the bottom of the screen during a broadcast of the Formula 1 Mexico Grand Prix by ABC local affiliate WNEP-TV on Sunday.

It showed Kamala Harris taking the state with 52 percent of the votes, while Donald Trump‘s share was 47 percent.

It instantly prompted claims of election rigging on social media, with one person tweeting: ‘The cheat is on.’

WNEP-TV said that the numbers came up on the screen in ‘error’ and that they had been ‘randomly generated’ as part of a test ahead of election night on November 5.

Trump is currently leading the state by 0.6 percentage points in an average of the top polls by Real Clear Politics.

Biden won Pennsylvania by the narrowest of margins in 2020, beating Trump by 80,555 votes or 1.17 percent.

Democrats have accused Trump and his allies of laying the groundwork to contest a potential loss by stoking doubts about the election’s legitimacy.

He has portrayed Democrats as cheaters, called mail-in ballots corrupt and urged supporters to vote in such large numbers to render the election ‘too big to rig.’ 

In response to the WNEP-TV broadcast, one person wrote on X: ‘If the same graphics pop up after November 5th, with the same percentages & the same vote count, it’ll be EXTREMELY suspicious. And the media wonders why nobody trusts them?’

Another said: ‘ABC is cheating for the Democrat machine. Their license should be revoked.’ 

In a statement the broadcaster said: ‘Those numbers should not have appeared on the screen, and it was an error by WNEP that they did.

‘The numbers seen on the screen were randomly generated test results sent out to help news organizations make sure their equipment is working properly in advance of election night.

Colorado Secretary of State posted spreadsheet with voting system passwords

The Colorado Secretary of State’s Office inadvertently posted a spreadsheet to its website with a hidden tab that included voting system passwords.

In a statement to 9NEWS, a spokesperson for the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office said that “the Department is working to remedy this situation where necessary.”

“The Department took immediate action as soon as it was aware of this and informed the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), which closely monitors and protects the county’s essential security infrastructure,” the spokesperson said.

On Tuesday morning, Colorado Republican Party Vice Chair Hope Scheppelman shared the hidden tab discovery in a mass email, along with an affidavit from someone who claims they had downloaded the Excel file from the Colorado Secretary of State’s website and discovered the hidden tab by simply clicking “unhide.” The name on the affidavit was blacked out in the Republican Party email.

9NEWS left a voicemail with Scheppelman on Tuesday afternoon.

The passwords that were in the hidden tab are known as BIOS passwords and are one part of the security process for Colorado’s voting machines.

They are passwords needed to configure system settings.

Frustration Boils as Pennsylvania Voters Witness ‘Non-English Speaking Citizens’ Escorted Past Long Lines to Vote: Report

A shocking scene reportedly unfolded at a satellite election office in South Park Ice Rink in Bethel Park, PA, where early voters, who had been waiting for hours, witnessed ‘vanloads’ of ‘non-English-speaking citizens’ allegedly escorted to the front by “translators” to cast their ballots.

According to X user Emma Cawwod, at least “three buses” arrived, with individuals being guided in by representatives from “Vote Today PA,” a vote mobilization group funded by the progressive organization Working Families Power, which advocates for causes like “economic fairness, racial justice, gender equity, climate sustainability.”

Some of these individuals were seen wearing hooded sweatshirts with “Vote Today PA” printed on them.

One witness described a disorganized scene, claiming, “They had these people, they had about 12 of them walked in who were all foreigners, and then they took them up to these younger people help them fill out — they say ‘Vote Today PA’ — and somehow they beat a two-hour line.”

“And then they walked up and the one lady, they were even asking her…they were like, ‘We don’t have you in the system. Your name’s not right.’ And they’re like, ‘Oh, we’ll take it back and change it.’ How do you change your damn name?” the witness added.

White House Spin After Joe Biden Called Millions of Trump Supporters “Garbage” is So Pathetic That CNN Isn’t Even Buying It! 

The White House went into damage control Tuesday night after Joe Biden sabotaged Kamala Harris and called millions of Trump supporters “garbage.”

“Donald Trump has no character. He doesn’t give a damn about the Latino community… just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage?… The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” Biden said.

WOW! Joe Biden Sabotages Kamala Harris, Refers to Millions of President Trump’s Supporters as “Garbage”

Joe Biden on Tuesday night referred to millions of President Trump’s supporters as “garbage.”

Biden made the grotesque remark during a campaign call on Tuesday night as Kamala Harris delivered a speech at the Ellipse in DC.

Joe Biden is actively sabotaging Kamala Harris’s campaign.

During the campaign call, Biden once again took a swipe at a comedian who cracked a joke about Puerto Rico during Sunday night’s rally at Madison Square Garden.

The left went apocalyptic after comedian Tony Hinchcliffe called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage” on Sunday evening.

Study finds that when Latinos hear ‘Latinx,’ they switch their votes to Trump

It’s not exactly a secret that Latinos can’t stand the word ‘Latinx,’ let alone getting called that by politically correct leftists.

Lefties have tried to make them swallow it, and some have tried to sweeten it, with ‘Latine,’ which sounds like a toilet, but to no avail.

A couple of researchers at Harvard and Georgetown decided to study this matter, and got an eye-popping result.

According to Amanda Sahar d’Urso and Marcel F. Roman:

Using several datasets, we find: Latinos are less likely to support politicians who use “Latinx” (Studies 1, 7); Latinos who oppose “Latinx” are less likely to support politicians who used or are associated with “Latinx” (Studies 2-5); Latinos in areas where “Latinx” is more salient are more likely to switch their vote toward Trump between 2016-2020 (Study 6). Consistent with our theory, these statistical patterns are driven by Republican, conservative, and anti-LGBTQ+ Latinos. Our findings have implications for politicians using identity-based appeals.

Well.

Being lefties themselves, they recommend comradely re-education of Latinos to force them to accept all this gender-inclusive language they’re having foisted upon them.

Trump’s Former Advisors Discuss How He Could End Ukraine War

Donald Trump has long stated that he would end the war in Ukraine if elected president. Confident in his ability to do so, the former president has stated he could end the conflict in 24 hours, and has guaranteed to do so before he actually enters the White House. He finally revealed how he intends to accomplish such a feat.

It begins by revisiting the failed Minsk Agreement – the entire premise of the current war. François Hollande and Angela Merkel representing France and Germany at the time brokered the agreement between Russia and Ukraine. The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) monitored negotiations and both sides agreed to an immediate ceasefire. Russia withdrew troops from Ukraine for one primary reason — the Donetsk and Luhansk regions were to be occupied territories that would have the autonomy to vote in their own elections.

These regions were never Ukrainian territory. It was occupied by Russians for centuries. The people there had a right to their own lives. The Ukrainians demanded they no longer speak Russian and they sought to deny them even their own religion and they were to report to Kyiv instead of Moscow. This was like Mexico reclaiming Texas and demanding English was to be outlawed and only Spanish was to be spoken and all religions were to be outlawed except allegiance to the Archbishop of Mexico.

The ethnic Russians in the Donbas did not want to submit to a central government from Kyiv itself. The Obama Administration really opposed this sort of settlement on the grounds of old-world empire theory predicated on the territorial integrity of Ukraine. Such policies have led to the death of hundreds of millions of people over the centuries.

October Surprise: NY Times And Media Matters To Drop Hit Piece On Conservative News

Over the last 48 hours, Tucker Carlson, the Daily Wire‘s Ben Shapiro, ZeroHedge, and others have received text messages from a NY Times reporter who’s about to drop a pre-election screed on ‘misinformation’ in conjunction with radical left-wing group Media Matters – which exists to deplatform conservative voices.

Tucker Carlson simply told them to fuck off, as one does.

Ben Shapiro, meanwhile, wrote in a Monday post to X, “If you were wondering what the legacy media would plan for its October surprise, wonder no longer: it’s here. Today, I received the following text from a reporter at @NYTimes.”

“What, precisely, is NYT doing? It’s perfectly obvious: using research from Media Matters, a radical Left-wing organization whose sole purpose is destroying conservative media (see below), in order to pressure YouTube to demonetize and penalize any and all conservatives ONE WEEK FROM THE ELECTION,” Shapiro continues.

Biden wants to join Harris’ election campaign but kept away by her team

United States President Joe Biden has sought to participate in the presidential campaign of his vice president, Kamala Harris. However, the Democrat’s team has kept him on the sidelines, believing his presence will harm her chances of overcoming Republican candidate Donald Trump.

According to Axios, Biden wants to get involved in the final days of Harris’ campaign to be elected president. According to three people familiar with the matter, her team responded to Biden’s request, “We’ll get back to you.”

Harris’ rise to the Democratic nomination resulted from the crisis within the party caused by Biden’s advanced age and cognitive decline, which raised doubts both internally and externally about his ability to retain the White House. Doubts turned into certainties on June 27, when the Democrat faced the Republican candidate in a debate in which he displayed irresolute behaviour.

Axios reported that the vice president’s team believes Biden is a political liability at a crucial moment in the campaign but has been reluctant to back down from him.

Moscow Blasts Detention of Russian Reporters as Breach of US Freedom of Speech Commitments

The United States has flagrantly violated its obligations to ensure freedom of access to information and media pluralism with its actions against Russian journalists at Washington, DC’s airport, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.

US authorities have not notified the Russian Embassy in Washington about the detention of Russian journalists who went to cover the presidential election in the United States, Maria Zakharova said.

Zakharova specified that the detention of the Russian correspondents took place on the night of October 29.
