Woman Caught on O’Keefe Undercover Camera Illegally Paying People to Register to Vote on Skid Row Federally Charged

A woman who was caught on O’Keefe Media Group’s undercover camera illegally paying people to register to vote on Skid Row in Los Angeles, California, has been federally charged.

The Justice Department on Monday announced that Brenda Lee Brown Armstrong was charged with one felony count of paying another person to register to vote. She is facing a max of five years in federal prison.

“False registrations undermine Americans’ faith in elections – even more so when payoffs are involved,” said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division.

“This Justice Department is committed to ensuring that all U.S. elections are fair and free from illegal meddling – so that all Americans can accept the results with confidence,” she said.

Former Kansas Mayor Detained by ICE After Guilty Plea for Illegally Voting

A former Republican mayor of a small Kansas town has been taken into federal immigration custody after pleading guilty to illegally voting as a non-citizen.

Jose “Joe” Ceballos-Armendariz, 55, a Mexican national who has held a green card since 1990, turned himself in to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials at their Wichita office on Wednesday.

Ceballos is now being held at the ICE-contracted Chase County Jail in Cottonwood Falls and faces potential deportation proceedings.

The green card holder served two terms as mayor of Coldwater, Kansas, a conservative Comanche County town of fewer than 700 residents.

Ceballos was first elected in 2021 and won re-election in 2025 with 83% of the vote.

The charges surfaced the day after that re-election when Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach announced felony election fraud charges.

Court records show Ceballos illegally voted in multiple elections despite knowing he was not a U.S. citizen. He also admitted during a January citizenship application that he had falsely claimed U.S. citizenship.

MI County Clerk Anthony Forlini Finds 198 MORE Non-US Citizens Summoned For Jury Duty From SOS Benson’s Driver’s License Database—11 Were Registered to Vote

Macomb County Clerk Anthony G. Forlini is exposing what Michigan Secretary of State and Democrat gubernatorial candidate Jocelyn Benson desperately wants to hide…

Non-citizens on her corrupt voter rolls.

While Michigan’s Secretary of State continues gaslighting the public with claims of “no evidence” of non-citizen voting, Forlini’s office just dropped more damning numbers proving the system is wide open to abuse.

According to Macomb County Clerk Anthony Forlini’s May 13th press release, in the first quarter of 2026 alone, 198 non-U.S. citizens were summoned for jury duty and forced to self-report with green cards and other proof that they are not American citizens and ineligible to serve. Of those 198, 11 had been registered to vote in Michigan’s Qualified Voter File (QVF) at some point — and a shocking seven remain listed as ACTIVE right now.

Democrat State Assembly Candidate May Be Kicked Off Primary Ballot After 90% of Her 5,258 Total Signatures Were Invalidated By City Board of Elections

Democrat State Assembly candidate Marie Mirville-Shahzada and her slate of Democratic district leaders in New York may be kicked off the ballot after the city Board of Elections invalidated 90% of her 5,258 total signatures.

Mirville-Shahzada is running for the New York State Assembly in District 46, which covers parts of Brooklyn, including Bay Ridge, Bath Beach, Dyker Heights, Bensonhurst, and Coney Island.

Signatures were invalidated for a variety of reasons, including the inclusion of two dead Brooklyn voters as well as voters who do not live in the district or were not even registered to vote.

Per the rules for appearing on the ballot, candidates must provide signatures of at least 500 verified voters for the district in question in order to run for Assembly.

After the city’s assessment, Mirville-Shahzada has been left with only 479 verified signatures.

Per a New York Post exclusive:

A review of signature petitions by The Post confirmed that at least two signatures are of dead voters while a third signature is from a woman whose family said she wasn’t even in the Big Apple on the day she allegedly put her John Hancock on the form.

Despite records showing both voters would be over 100 years old and that they passed away more than a decade ago, fresh ink was signed last month to support Mirville-Shahzada’s bid to get into the party primary.

And 99-year-old Lucia Gelbfish’s family said she didn’t sign the petition either and that her “blood pressure would go through the roof” if she knew her signature had been used fraudulently.

Her Democrat appointment, Chris McCreight, said in a statement, “This is why people lose faith in government, because you have people running for office who are willing to lie and cheat because they can’t compete by following the rules.”

“It’s dead wrong and should not be tolerated when anybody, of any party, does it.”

BOMBSHELL: Detroit 2020 Election Document Investigation Reveals WHOPPING 12.4% of Absentee Ballots Are MISSING OFFICIAL ENVELOPE Required By Law From 51 Taxpayer-Subsidized Housing Addresses

New Jersey resident Yehuda Miller, Check My Vote founder Phani Mantravadi, and Patty McMurray of The Gateway Pundit have joined forces with over 100 incredibly dedicated volunteers in one of the largest citizen-led election integrity investigations in American history.

Our incredible team of volunteers and election experts is currently reviewing nearly one million documents from Detroit and Wayne County’s November 2020 election — the same records a judge finally forced the City of Detroit to turn over after they repeatedly denied Yehuda Miller’s FOIA requests.

This is long, grueling, and often tedious work. Many of the documents arrived in completely out-of-order. Our team — led by Phani Mantravadi’s (founder of Check My Vote) technical expertise — built a custom website to organize and display them. Thanks to Phani Mantravadi, we now have successfully digitized and sequenced over 155,000 absentee ballot envelopes by counting board, allowing our volunteers to meticulously examine every single one for irregularities and fraud.

Please consider giving to this VOLUNTEER effort, with over 100 individuals dedicating up to 12 hours a day to help us complete this project before the midterm election. We have a GiveSendGo account set up to help fund this project, and we humbly ask you to consider making a contribution to support our work, as we receive no outside or government funds.

Volunteers are entering critical data — flagging every questionable, fraudulent, or illegally accepted ballot envelope that Detroit officials rubber-stamped in 2020.

Before we release our findings to the public, we check, double-check, and, in some cases, even triple-check our work to ensure accuracy.

DOJ Issues Grand Jury Subpoenas For ALL 2020 Election Workers Records from Fulton County

On April 17, 2026, a grand jury issued a subpoena to the Fulton County Board of Registrations and Elections (BRE) to appear in the U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Georgia on May 5, 2026.

Department of Justice prosecutors obtain a grand jury subpoena by preparing it in connection with an active grand jury investigation and issuing it under the grand jury’s authority.

In this case, the subpoena requests that the Fulton County BRE bring specific documents and electronically stored information.  That information includes information regarding election staff/members who served in the November 2020 General Election.  The records must identify their name, position/function, residential and email addresses, and personal telephone numbers.

The records include those who were performing the following functions and duties:

  • Individuals assigned to review Mail-In Ballots
  • Individuals assigned to the Voter Review Panel/Board
  • Individuals assigned to Mobile Voting Locations
  • Individuals assigned to transfer results to or from media or transport ballots, ballot stock, or media
  • Individuals employed or contracted by the Fulton Board of Registrations and Elections
  • Individuals who worked or volunteered for the Risk Limiting Audit
  • Individuals who worked or volunteered for the Recount
  • Individuals who served as precinct managers and assistant managers

Many of these individuals could potentially have pertinent information about numerous anomalies uncovered over the last several years.  The Gateway Pundit has previously reported that Fulton County did not properly perform signature verification on mail-in ballots in Fulton County, according to testimony under oath from then-Fulton County BRE member Mark Wingate during the disbarment hearing for former Deputy Attorney General Jeff Clark.

Wingate also testified that he was prevented from viewing chain of custody documents prior to certifying the 2020 election.  Both issues could potentially be explored with the above witnesses.

Former NJ Democrat Candidate Pleads Guilty to Voter Fraud Scheme

A former Democratic mayoral candidate in Plainfield, New Jersey, has pleaded guilty to forging voter registration applications connected to the 2021 Democratic primary election.

Henrilyn Ibezim, 71, admitted to the charge as part of a case stemming from his candidacy in that election cycle.

Ibezim ran on the Unity Party ticket during the primary, according to reporting.

New Jersey Attorney General Jennifer Davenport announced in a press release Thursday that Ibezim entered his guilty plea earlier in the week.

He was charged with one count of third-degree forgery.

“Under the terms of his plea agreement with the Attorney General’s Office of Public Integrity and Accountability (OPIA), the State agreed to dismiss the remaining counts in the indictment and to not prosecute the defendant for any other disclosed criminal violations arising out of his conduct during the Democratic primary for mayor in June 2021,” the attorney general’s office said.

Prosecutors indicated they will recommend a sentence of probation.

According to the charges, Ibezim was accused of attempting to submit a large number of fraudulent voter registration applications.

In Pennsylvania The Effort To Hide The Truth About A Stolen Election Just Failed – Now We Get To Find Out What They Were So Desperate To Hide

Heather Honey runs an organization called Verity Vote in Pennsylvania. She is a walking encyclopedia of information on how elections are actually run in this country. In the aftermath of the 2020 election in Pennsylvania, Heather began to hear some very disturbing things. Put simply, she began to acquire information that in counties around the state, more votes had been counted than the number of voters who voted.

I’m not a math whiz, but I think we all understand that this is a big problem. Those two numbers – the number of people who voted and the number of votes cast – have to be the same.

They weren’t.

Heather decided to dig in. As part of that effort, she contacted Lycoming County in northeast Pennsylvania and asked to review the CVR for the county. CVRs are spreadsheet-like digital records (raw data reports) generated by tabulator machines after ballots are scanned. They show how each ballot was interpreted (e.g., vote counts per candidate/race from each tabulator), without linking to individual voters. Access to this information is routine and typically granted informally.

The county told Heather to submit a formal right-to-know request. She did so.

The Office of the Secretary of State in Harrisburg intervened. How precisely that office was even advised of the request remains a little unclear. In any event, in response to what should have been a routine request for public information, the bureaucracy swung into action. The Secretary of State generated an opinion. The CVR for Lycoming County would not be made available. No CVR’s would be made available for any jurisdiction in Pennsylvania. Ever.

Nothing to see here. Move along.

Heather did not move along. She filed suit, and every time a lower court ruled against her, she appealed until her case reached the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.

On April 28, 2026 that court ruled in favor of Heather and other petitioners who had joined her action. The court unanimously reversed the Commonwealth Court and held that Cast Vote Records (CVRs) from the 2020 election are public records subject to disclosure under the Pennsylvania Election Code.

“The Supreme Court ruled that the cast vote records are spreadsheets of raw data pulled from the cast ballots. They are not the physical ballots contained in the ballot box.” Therefore, they are public records, the justices concluded: “This interpretation does not destroy the secrecy of the vote any more than a tally of all votes from a specific election.”

The significance of this decision can hardly be exaggerated. In the aftermath of the 2020 election, significant evidence emerged of huge issues with the tabulation of that vote in Pennsylvania. These were surfaced in a report prepared at the time.

Former Dem mayoral candidate admits forging voter registration applications

Henrilynn Ibezim, a former Democratic mayoral candidate in New Jersey, pleaded guilty to forging nearly 1,000 voter registration applications during the 2021 Democratic primary, New Jersey’s Office of the Attorney General announced Thursday.

During the 2021 Democratic primary for Plainfield, New Jersey’s mayoral seat, Ibezim allegedly brought a garbage bag filled with around 1,000 falsified voter registration applications to a post office in Elizabeth, New Jersey, with the intention of mailing them to Union County’s registration commissioner.

Of the 1,000 applications, most were completed with the handwriting of only three or four people, according to the attorney general. None of the slips were marked as completed by somebody other than the voter whom they were supposed to represent.

Ibezim also attempted to coach a witness who helped him fill out the applications on how to respond to law enforcement questions, telling the witness not to “admit anything,” the attorney general’s office previously said.

Despite his efforts, Ibezim, who was running on the Unity Party ticket, received only 103 votes in the primary and lost to Plainfield’s current mayor, Adrian O. Mapp.

Four noncitizens charged with illegally voting in 2020, 2022 and 2024 federal elections in New Jersey

Four noncitizens were charged with illegally voting in multiple federal elections and making false statements while applying for U.S. citizenship, federal prosecutors announced Friday.

According to criminal complaints filed in the District of New Jersey, each defendant allegedly cast ballots in at least one federal election, including the 2020 and 2024 presidential elections.

“Four individuals have been charged with illegally voting in federal elections and making false statements applying for U.S. citizenship,” FBI Director Kash Patel said in a post on X. 

“The individuals — all noncitizens — voted in elections including the 2020 Presidential election, 2022 midterms, and 2024 Presidential election cycles.”

Prosecutors identified the defendants as David Neewilly, 73, of Atlantic County; Jacenth Beadle Exum, 70, of Bergen County; Idan Choresh, 43, of Monmouth County; and Abhinandan Vig, 33, of Monmouth County.
