O’Keefe Media Group: California Identity Scam: Petition Fraudsters Log Into Online Database to Get Real Voter Names for Forged Signatures

The O’Keefe Media on Tuesday released part III of its cash-for-ballots investigation into voter fraud in California.

In part III, undercover journalists discovered that the petition fraudsters are logging into an online database to get real voter names for the forged signatures.

Sigvalid.com was identified as the online database.

Per OMG:

In Part III of the cash-for-ballots investigation, petition fraudsters on Skid Row in Los Angeles were caught on hidden camera logging into an online database accessing registered voter names and addresses. These identities were then given to homeless individuals and used to sign in the name of on election petitions.

Our undercover footage shows these signatures completed under false identities, followed by cash payments.

We tracked the names used in the footage and went door-to-door to verify the individuals whose names appeared in the footage. Residents confirmed the addresses were accurate, but denied ever signing any petitions.

Actual voters are angry and demanding authorities take action.

“That’s my address… but that wasn’t me,” one of the voters said.

Whistleblower Exposes Massive Election Fraud Ring in California — Claims Voter Reg Office Hands Lists of Stolen Names Directly to Gangbangers to Rig Petitions with Paid Homeless Signers

It’s worse than we thought. As the radical left continues to fight tooth and nail against basic election transparency and the SAVE America Act, independent journalists are exposing exactly why they want the system vulnerable.

Higby, working alongside a group dubbed the “Citizen Justice League,” which includes conservative investigative heavyweights like James O’Keefe and Savannah Hernandez, spent weeks disguised as a homeless man on Skid Row to capture this sickening corruption on hidden camera.

The Gateway Pundit broke coverage of James O’Keefe Media Group’s devastating undercover videos exposing the full street-level operation on Los Angeles Skid Row.

In Part II of the “Cash for Ballots” series, O’Keefe and Higby captured hidden camera footage of petitioners paying desperate homeless individuals $2–$3 per forged signature to impersonate real registered voters using pre-printed lists of actual California voter names and addresses.

Circulators hovered over the signatures, making sure the homeless forgers got the names and handwriting “just right” before handing over the cash.

O’Keefe and Higby then went door-to-door to the real addresses on those lists, only to find longtime residents confirming the named voters hadn’t lived there in years, yet election mail was still being delivered to ghosts.

Minnesota Election Judge PLEADS GUILTY to Letting Unregistered Voters Cast Ballots in 2024 Election

In another devastating blow to the Democrats’ endless claims that there’s no election fraud, a Minnesota election judge has now pleaded guilty to a felony for deliberately allowing unregistered voters to cast ballots on Election Day.

Timothy Michael Scouton, 65, of Nevis, Minnesota, the head election judge in rural Badoura Township, Hubbard County, admitted in court on Monday that he allowed 11 unregistered individuals to vote without meeting the most basic legal requirements.

Scouton was responsible for ensuring that all voting procedures complied with Minnesota law.

Instead, prosecutors say he accepted ballots from voters who had not completed legally required registration forms, a fundamental safeguard in the election process.

The Gateway Pundit reported in 2024 that the investigation was initiated after Hubbard County Auditor Kay Rave discovered discrepancies in the election materials returned by Scouton.

Among the ballots and documents was a glaring omission: no completed voter registration forms for the 11 individuals who had reportedly cast ballots, according to KSTP.com.

According to court filings, Scouton underwent both basic election judge training and head judge training earlier this year.

On November 7, Rave alerted authorities after discovering that the required registration documentation for the 11 individuals was missing.

Scouton was then arrested and charged with two felonies for this outrageous scheme.

Scouton ultimately admitted in court this week that he allowed the votes to be cast without proper registration, acknowledging that his actions violated the law.

As part of a plea agreement:

  • Scouton pleaded guilty to one felony count of allowing unregistered voting
  • A second charge of neglect of duty will be dismissed
  • He now faces up to 5–10 years in prison and fines up to $10,000, depending on sentencing outcomes

His sentencing is scheduled for May 18, and he has already been barred from serving as an election judge in the future.

California AG Rob Bonta Rushes to Court to Stop Sheriff Bianco’s Ballot Count in Riverside

Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco criticized California Attorney General Rob Bonta after the state filed an emergency writ seeking to halt the counting of ballots tied to a local investigation into the November 2025 special election.

Bianco, who is running for governor, said the move comes as his office investigates what he described as a discrepancy between the number of ballots cast and the number of votes reported in Riverside County.

“Hello California Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco and your next governor. Well, well, well, the political corruption in California just gets bigger and bigger. Our embarrassment to law enforcement. Attorney General Rob Bonta just filed an emergency writ with the court of appeals to stop ballots from being counted in Riverside County,” Bianco said.

According to Bianco, the investigation centers on an alleged difference of approximately 45,000 votes.

“For those not aware, we are conducting an investigation into an alleged and potential 45,000 extra votes counted than the number of ballots cast in the November 2025 special election,” he said.

Bianco said the review is focused solely on reconciling totals, not analyzing how votes were cast.

“So we are all clear, this isn’t about counting yes and no votes. This is simply counting the total ballots and comparing that total with the number of votes reported by the Dominion machines, plain and simple common sense,” he said.

Democrats’ Fraud-Friendly Election Rules Destroy Public Trust

When Donald Trump was elected for his first term in 2016, a large majority of Democrats believed the election was rigged. When Joe Biden was elected in 2020, a large majority of Republicans believed the election was rigged. America is the world’s showcase democracy. Why can’t we have elections people can trust? I’m usually critical of both parties, but when it comes to election integrity, the Democrats are 100 percent of the problem.

Why are the Democrats to blame? The answer becomes obvious by asking a few simple questions. Why do Democrats oppose updated voter registration lists? Why do Democrats fight for laws that enable vote harvesting — sending activists out with stacks of ballots to be filled out with their assistance by people in housing projects, nursing homes, and targeted neighborhoods? Why do Democrats oppose in-person voting requirements and insist that unrequested ballots be mailed to all registered voters? Why do Democrats want ballots to be accepted after Election Day? Why do Democrats oppose voter ID and citizenship requirements?

The answers to these questions are revealing. On the voter registration lists of many states, as many as 10 percent to 20 percent of names listed represent people who have died or moved. It’s easy to put a few people in a room in key voting precincts and have them identify registered voters who are not going to vote — at least for themselves. It’s easy to imagine how ballots could be completed in their names, then bundled and dropped in an unsupervised drop box.

Another easy way to cheat is vote harvesting, in which the harvester completes a quantity of ballots and takes them to unlikely voters for their signatures — or forges their signatures. No wonder Democrats oppose signature verification.

In-person voting with ID requirements makes it very hard to cheat. Such guardrails prevent local party bosses from determining how many votes are needed and then delivering ballots to a drop box hours or even days after an election. Democrats oppose both.

Call me partisan, but you have to be blind not to see what’s going on here. Democrats need to cheat to win, and since most of the swing states are controlled by Democrats, often with the help of Democrat judges, it has been virtually impossible to create elections people can trust. Democrats respond to efforts to create honest elections with cries of racism and voter suppression. Proposals such as the SAVE Act in Congress would solve many of these problems, but almost all Democrats oppose it, and Republicans in the Senate have yet to show the courage to pass it.

The lack of election integrity in America is compounded by the lack of integrity in political service. This begins at the federal level with confusion about who our congressmen, senators, and presidents are supposed to serve. Every member of congress and president takes an oath to defend the Constitution. The Constitution is a directive from “We the People of the United States.” Federal officials, including our military, are in office to serve the people of the United States — not the people of their congressional district, states, noncitizens, special interests, or other countries. An oath to defend the Constitution is an oath to serve all the citizens of the United States.

Most congressmen and senators act like their job is to take money from the federal treasury back home to their states and congressional districts; get money and contracts for businesses in their states; or get money for special interests and designated constituent groups. They put thousands of earmarks in legislation that sends billions of dollars back to local projects in their states, claiming the Constitution gives Congress the authorization to spend federal tax dollars on anything they want. They recently even changed the name of “earmarks” to “Community Project Funding,” as if Congress is authorized to fund community projects. Nowhere in the Constitution is Congress given the authority to fund local community projects such as museums and buildings named after congressmen and senators.

For decades, congressmen and senators have been serving themselves and special interests instead of the “general welfare” of the nation. That’s why America is hopelessly in debt with no plans to reduce spending.

California Court SMACKS DOWN Corrupt AG Rob Bonta’s Attempt to Block Sheriff Chad Bianco’s Massive 650,000 Ballot Investigation

A state appellate court has flat-out rejected Democrat Attorney General Rob Bonta’s emergency writ to halt Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco’s bombshell investigation into 45,000 extra votes mysteriously counted in the November 2025 special election.

This is the latest chapter in Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco’s fearless fight against the Sacramento swamp.

Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, a Republican currently in a tight 2026 gubernatorial race with fellow Republican Steve Hilton, moved to seize approximately 650,000 ballots and initiate a recount after a citizens’ group reported significant discrepancies, according to CalMatters.

Sheriff Chad Bianco revealed that a team of 10 investigators had already begun counting ballots before being ordered to halt their work, as part of an ongoing election investigation, The Sun reported.

According to Bianco, the team’s initial progress suggested that counting the approximately 611,000 ballots would take about five days to complete. However, the effort was paused before a full review could be conducted.

The investigation was launched following a complaint filed by a citizen-led election watchdog group. The Riverside Election Integrity Team alleges a discrepancy of roughly 45,000 votes between the number of ballots received and those officially counted in Riverside County during the November election tied to Proposition 50.

AG Bonta’s office had demanded the sheriff’s department pause everything, claiming “grave concerns” and whining that Bianco hadn’t identified a specific crime.

Bonta tried to claim that Bianco, a veteran law enforcement officer, had no “legal authority” to act as an election monitor. He called the investigation a “fishing expedition” and a “threat to democracy.”

Democrats Rattled After California Sheriff Seizes 650,000 Ballots in Election Integrity Crackdown

Riverside County Sheriff and California gubernatorial candidate Chad Bianco has seized more than 650,000 ballots from last November’s election as part of an investigation into potential discrepancies in the county’s vote count.

The probe follows allegations from the Riverside Election Integrity Team that the county’s tally may have been inflated by more than 45,000 votes.

“This investigation is simple: Physically count the ballots and compare that result with the total votes recorded,” Bianco said at a Friday press conference.

He said the review will determine whether the results are accurate.

“There is no acceptable error, small or large, in our elections,” he said.

The investigation covers ballots tied to Proposition 50, which passed in Riverside County with 56 percent of the vote, a margin of more than 82,000 ballots.

Riverside County Registrar of Voters Art Tinoco said the alleged discrepancy stems from a misunderstanding of incomplete data.

He said the actual variance was 103 votes, or 0.016 percent.

Review of 50–60 MILLION Records Uncovers Thousands of Ineligible Registrations Including Non-Citizens Who VOTED — 300,000 DEAD People Still Listed

Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon has revealed that a massive DOJ review of between 50 and 60 million voter records has uncovered hundreds of thousands of ineligible registrations, including over 300,000 DEAD people still listed as active voters and tens of thousands of non-citizens who have already cast ballots in federal elections.

As The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively, Dhillon’s team has been waging war on dirty voter rolls since President Trump took office.

Back in December 2025, we told you how an initial review of just 47.5 million records found 260,000+ dead voters and thousands of illegals registered to vote.

Now the numbers are even worse, and we’re only looking at a fraction of the states that actually cooperated.

Harmeet Dhillon:
We have run some records for some states. So, I think we’ve run something between 50 and 60 million voter records so far. And, you know, during this president’s tenure, we have found hundreds of thousands of people who shouldn’t be on the voter rolls—people who are dead, people who have moved, and duplicate registrations.

We have also found, separately, noncitizens on the voter rolls. And so now we’re doing our due diligence to identify the extent to which they may or may not have voted.

And sometimes people are enrolled on the voter rolls. We’ve just seen some crazy videos from California that show homeless people being used to sign petitions and register to vote or sign affidavits. You could sign ballots for somebody else and fill them in.

And that’s easy when you have a system where there’s no voter ID, right? Where ballots are being mailed to outdated voting lists.

This is not a fiction or a fantasy. Los Angeles County, in 2017, agreed in a lawsuit with Judicial Watch that there were over 1.1 million people in that county alone who should not have been on the voter rolls.

Sen. Richard Blumenthal BLATANTLY Lies: Claims Non-Citizen Voting Is “As Rare As Being Struck by Lightning” — Data Shows MILLIONS May Be Registered

In yet another example of Democrats downplaying serious election integrity concerns, Sen. Richard Blumenthal made a stunning claim on MSNOW Friday, insisting that non-citizen voting is “rare to the point of nonexistence”—even going so far as to compare it to being “struck by lightning.”

That statement is not just misleading—it directly contradicts available data.

Blumenthal’s comments came during a broader defense of Democrat opposition to election integrity measures, including provisions in the SAVE America Act that would require proof of citizenship to vote.

Rather than address the substance of those concerns, Blumenthal dismissed the issue entirely, telling viewers that non-citizen voting is essentially nonexistent and not a serious concern.

But the facts tell a very different story.

According to an analysis by Just Facts, cited by the Cato Institute, which builds on established academic methodologies, between 10% and 27% of non-citizen adults in the United States are illegally registered to vote.

With more than 19 million adult non-citizens recorded in the U.S. Census, that translates to roughly 2 million to 5 million illegal registrations nationwide. These numbers are large enough to influence major elections, including congressional races and even presidential outcomes.

This is not a new concern. A 2014 study published in the peer-reviewed journal Electoral Studies found similarly troubling trends. Researchers estimated that roughly one-quarter of non-citizens were registered to vote and that 6.4% reported actually voting.

Among those who voted, 81.8% said they supported Barack Obama. The authors concluded that illegal non-citizen votes likely affected key election outcomes, including Electoral College results and a pivotal Senate race that enabled Democrats to pass Obamacare.

The methodology behind those findings combined self-reported survey data with verified voter registration records, producing a best estimate that 25.1% of non-citizens were illegally registered to vote.

That estimate aligns closely with more recent analyses, reinforcing the conclusion that the issue is neither rare nor nonexistent.

Blumenthal’s “lightning strike” comparison collapses under even basic scrutiny.

‘WHO HAS THE BOXES?!’ Fulton County numbers don’t match after FBI seizure

Officials from Fulton County, Georgia, wanted to quash a subpoena from the Georgia State Board of Elections because providing “approximately 750 boxes” of material would be too burdensome.

Yet, when the FBI came knocking in a Jan. 28 raid, federal agents left with 656 boxes (653 by one count), prompting a top Georgia election official to wonder about the gap in the number.

“That’s almost 100 boxes of evidence,” Janice Johnston, vice chair of the Georgia State Election Board, told The Daily Signal.

She referenced one county affidavit that only estimated “over 700 boxes” at the county elections hub. She said, “Even 50 [extra] boxes would be a lot of evidence.”

In a post on X, Johnston posed the questions, “WHERE ARE 100 BOXES OF ELECTION DOCUMENTS?!! … WHO HAS THE BOXES?!!”

A rough estimate does not excuse such a large numerical disparity in an affidavit or court filings, Johnston said.

The State Election Board has since made a records request to the Fulton County Board of Elections to provide information about materials delivered or removed from storage in the four weeks preceding the FBI raid.

“Fulton County is effectively the person of interest in this case,” Johnston said. “We are not assured that everything was available.”

The FBI seized materials from the 2020 election that included ballots, tabulator tapes, and ballot images from a recount, Georgia Public Broadcasting reported, citing court documents that supported the search warrant. About 370,000 ballot images are missing, Johnston noted.
