Sen. Rand Paul: Biggest Threat to Validity of an Election ‘Is When You Don’t Vote in Person’

The biggest threat to the validity of an election is “when you don’t vote in person,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) – a cosponsor of the SAVE America Act – said during an interview on Breitbart News Daily.

“I think the biggest threat, really, to the validity of the election is when you don’t vote in person,” Paul said. “When you vote in person, you can show an ID. People identify them. It’s kind of hard to have 500 extra votes if only 500 people showed up, that kind of thing.”

That security is totally absent when individuals are voting by mail, he emphasized.

“When it’s done by mail, you have no idea if these people are living, if they’re real, who filled out the ballot, who signed the ballot. You know, there’s a lot of problems. There’s also the question of whether they really desired to vote or had the energy to vote if someone went to their house 12 times and then finally filled it out for them and held their hand while it got signed or signed it themselves as they harvested the ballots,” the senator said, explaining that he is “probably more concerned about the honesty and integrity of elections by mail-in balloting.”

“And I think one of the things that got lost — and I’m for the Save Act. I’m a co-sponsor of it. I’ll vote for it. I’ve continued to vote for it, but you know how the Democrats took about $60 million, they went into Virginia, they changed the Constitution just to gerrymander things. We should go in with a similar amount into Arizona and change the law there – just in Arizona, if we could, from unsolicited ballots to only solicited ballots,” Paul said.

The Kentucky senator said he would like to get rid of mail-in ballots altogether, but he said many people in the West like them.

New Library of Election Evidence “Attack Vectors” — Election Crime Bureau Provides 800+ Findings In 42 Categories

The Election Crime Bureau published a stunning central library of election findings (visit the Evidence tab). They identify 10 main “Attack Vectors” through which election outcomes are shaped or shielded from scrutiny. Each of the 800+ findings from past elections supports President Trump’s assertions that our elections can be stolen – and were in 2020.

The 42 subcategories (domains) span every critical layer of our election infrastructure. This collection of open-source intelligence (OSINT) is the best we’ve ever seen. Many of the categories are rarely discussed in public, such as Cartel Funding, Privileged Access, and Willful Neglect. Note: The Federal government has access to even more evidence.

The depth of the project proves we can no longer think of election corruption as local or regional issues conducted by ignorant officials or bad actors. It must be treated as a national security threat. When serious issues arise, a coordinated national effort should be undertaken rather than relying on local groups that need to quickly find volunteers.

Biden-Appointed Judge Blocks Trump’s New Verification System to Remove Foreign Nationals from Voter Rolls

A federal judge, appointed by President Joe Biden, has blocked President Donald Trump’s administration from using an updated verification system, known as the SAVE program, to remove foreign nationals from state voter rolls.

On Monday, Judge Sparkle Sooknanan, appointed to the United States District Court for the District of Columbia by Biden, issued an order to prevent the Trump administration from using a streamlined version of the federal government’s SAVE program to combat voter fraud.

The update to SAVE allowed states to more quickly verify that only American citizens are voting in federal elections by no longer requiring that all nine digits of a voter registrant’s Social Security Number have to be entered to verify eligibility.

“This case implicates two fundamental rights that protect Americans from government overreach: the right to privacy and the right to vote,” Sooknanan, an immigrant from Trinidad and Tobago, wrote:

In the past year, several federal agencies have joined forces to create a centralized federal database that contains the private information of United States citizens, including Social Security numbers, citizenship status, and other sensitive data. [Emphasis added]

But decades ago, Congress put protections in place to prevent precisely this type of centralized data bank. And the record in this case shows that the federal agencies that created this database knew that the database violates those statutory protections. The agencies were scrambling to comply with an Executive Order aimed at reshaping federal elections, which directed them to create a system for mass voter verification. So they haphazardly combined and repurposed the private information of millions of Americans, including citizenship data that they knew to be unreliable. Since then, states have partnered with the federal government to access the database and are actively removing United States citizens from voter rolls based on inaccurate information. All in all, the federal government has knowingly trampled on the privacy rights of American citizens in a manner that threatens the sacred right to vote. This Court cannot stand idly by while that happens. [Emphasis added]

A U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) spokesman previously told Breitbart News that the updated SAVE program was necessary to ensure “America’s elections are reserved exclusively for American citizens.”

The case is League of Women Voters et al v. DHS, No. 25-3501 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.

 FBI Raids Ohio Democrat Ballot Harvesting Group’s Headquarters — This Follows Thousands of Suspect Registrations in 2024 Election

The FBI raided the Cleveland headquarters of the Ohio Organizing Collaborative (OOC) on Thursday, as part of an ongoing federal investigation into suspected ballot harvesting and voter fraud operations in the key swing state of Ohio.

Agents also fanned out across the state, showing up at the homes of OOC leaders, staff members, volunteers, and connected community organizers in places like Columbus, Dayton, and Cincinnati. They served subpoenas, seized electronic devices, and questioned people directly about voter fraud.

The Ohio Organizing Collaborative presents itself as a “pro-democracy” voter registration nonprofit focused on underrepresented communities. In reality, it functions as a Democrat-aligned operation deeply embedded in progressive get-out-the-vote efforts across Ohio’s major cities.

Amuse reported:

Here is more information on the FBI raids. The FBI hit the main office and several homes of the Democrat operatives.

Via the Statehouse News Bureau:

The Ohio Organizing Collaborative, a group that organizes political activities for Democratic and progressive causes, has been raided by the FBI.

Ohio Organizing Collaborative Board Member Prentiss Haney said FBI agents came to the organization’s Cleveland office yesterday. He said agents have fanned out and questioned people who work with his organization. Haney said agents have searched and sometimes taken laptops and electronic devices as well as interviewed people who work with the organization.

“This is not normal business. I mean there’s no reason for over 100 agents to be knocking on the doors of everyday Ohioans,” Haney said. “Demanding and accusing people of voter fraud as if it was a witch hunt and, and scaring them with the children, following them in their cars to school and to work. I mean this was a full-out assault. I mean, we haven’t seen anything like this since Selma. And so this was completely um politically motivated.”

The Ohio Organizing Collaborative has a documented history of voter registration fraud. In 2017, paid canvasser Rebecca A. Hammonds, who worked directly for the group, pleaded guilty to multiple counts of falsely registering people to vote and forging signatures on voter registration forms. She was sentenced to six months in jail. Some of the fraudulent registrations were even submitted for dead people.

Voter Fraud: Los Angeles County Woman Pleads Guilty To Paying People In Skid Row To Vote

A woman who worked as a longtime signature collector for ballot initiatives pleaded guilty on June 8 to paying homeless people in Los Angeles’ Skid Row and elsewhere $2 or $3 to register to vote.

Brenda Lee Brown Armstrong, 64, of Marina del Rey, also known as “Anika,” entered a plea to one count of paying another person to register to vote, a federal charge that carries a penalty of up to five years behind bars.

Sentencing was scheduled for Aug. 31.

According to her plea agreement, for nearly 20 years, Armstrong periodically worked as a “petition circulator.” In that role, she was paid by coordinators to collect voter signatures on official petitions that qualify initiatives, referendums and recalls for California state ballots. Prosecutors said Armstrong drove around the Los Angeles area to find registered voters to sign the petitions.

After gathering enough signatures, Armstrong returned the petitions to her coordinators, who then paid her a set amount for each registered voter’s signature. The amount she was paid varied depending on the specific ballot initiative. Because her coordinators only paid for signatures attributable to registered voters, Armstrong endeavored to ensure the people who signed her petitions were registered voters, court papers show.

Armstrong admitted soliciting signatures in Skid Row, a convenient place for the defendant to collect signatures because of its high concentration of people in a relatively small area who were willing to sign petitions in exchange for cash.

Armstrong regularly paid amounts between $2 and $3 to induce people to sign her petitions, officials said.

Prosecutors said some homeless people did not have an address to put on the forms, so on occasion, Armstrong provided her own former address in Los Angeles to write on the registration form. Such registration forms simultaneously registered an individual to vote in California elections and in federal elections.

This is not an allegation, this is not a theory, this is an example of admitted voter fraud,” First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli said when Armstrong was charged. “We’re going to aggressively prosecute voter fraud.”

A video shot by conservative media figure James O’Keefe and reposted by an account called “Real America’s Voice” showed a woman handing cash to a homeless person. In a post on social media, O’Keefe said his video led to Armstrong being charged.

Essayli said on June 5 that his office has “multiple” probes underway into alleged voting fraud. While declining to provide any specifics, he pointed to the Armstrong case as an example of the sort of thing he is investigating.

“Yes, there is evidence of election fraud in California,” he said.

The comments came one day after President Donald Trump publicly accused Democrats of engaging in election fraud in California, pointing to the legally established mail-in voting process.

Essayli also said his office is working with Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon in an effort to audit the state’s voter rolls.

Essayli said previously that Armstrong’s arrest coincided with arguments in the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) appeal of the dismissal of a lawsuit over voter registration records.

The DOJ sued California Secretary of State Shirley Weber last year, demanding the state hand over the unredacted voter file, which includes registered voters’ full names, residential addresses, driver’s license numbers, and the last four digits of their Social Security numbers.

The DOJ claimed it had the right to access the data under powers granted by the Civil Rights Act of 1960, the Help America Vote Act, and the National Voter Registration Act.

In January, a Santa Ana federal judge dismissed the case after finding that the DOJ’s request for the information violates federal privacy laws. The defense also argued that the Trump administration wants to use the data to help enforce its immigration policy.

Assiociated Press Calls Mayor’s Race for Nithya Raman After Another Fraudulent Ballot Drop Buries Spencer Pratt – Raman Gains 33,000 Votes

The latest ballot dump in Los Angeles put the nail in the coffin for Spencer Pratt and gave Democratic City Councilwoman Nithya Raman a roughly 22,000-vote lead. 

Raman gained more than 33,000 votes in this batch. Pratt gained less than 15,000.

The Associated Press has called the race for Raman —six days after Election Day. Raman will face incumbent Mayor Karen Bass in a November runoff election.

The AP claims, “Large numbers of Democrats held onto their mail ballots and returned them in the race’s final days, which helps explain why Bass and Raman have been doing better than Pratt in the votes counted since primary day.”

Raman was trailing Pratt by about 40,000 votes on election night, but thanks to mail-in ballots that were inserted after election day, she closed the gap.

It can be recalled that Raman broke down in tears on election night with an emotional, would-be retirement speech at her election night watch party.

Rigged Election Buries LA Mayoral Candidate Spencer Pratt in Latest Ballot Dump – Democrat Nithya Raman Projected to Win

Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate Spencer Pratt fell into third place behind Democrat City Councilwoman Nithya Raman in the Los Angeles mayoral primary after a damning ballot dump heavily favored the Democratic candidates.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has already been projected to advance to the November runoff. The top two candidates will advance if no candidate receives more than 50% of the vote.

Raman gained over 19,000 votes in the latest dump, Bass gained nearly 16,000, and Pratt gained just under 8,500. 80% of the batch went to the Democrats.

With an estimated 146,000 ballots remaining to count, Pratt now trails Raman by more than 3,000 votes. Previously, Raman trailed by roughly 40,000 votes.

Pratt dominated with mail-in ballots received by election day, but those received after election day have heavily favored the Democrats. Where are these votes coming from? How can anybody trust these results?

ABC7’s Jory Rand suggested that, while unlikely, Pratt could “somehow” come back if “we see a batch in the last couple of days of those mail-in ballots that were heavy on Spencer Pratt.”

Dirty LA Times Admits Thousands of Ballots Were Dumped into LA Mayor’s Race w/out a Single One for Spencer Pratt – But “It Was a Glitch”

Never count out the fake news to defend outright fraud and lawlessness by the left.

Last Tuesday, on election night, Spencer Pratt was comfortably in second place in the Los Angeles Mayor’s race. Pratt dominated with early mail-in ballots that arrived before Election Day. Pratt had further extended his lead by more than 12,000 votes when the in-person results came in.

With roughly 50 percent of the expected vote counted early Wednesday morning, Bass led with approximately 36-37 percent while Pratt pulled in a strong 29.2 percent.

Progressive City Councilmember Nithya Raman trailed far behind in third at 21.4 percent.

But in California Election Day has expanded to Election month. Democrats flip elections away from Republican candidates after all of the ballots come in that were discovered AFTER Election Day.

In one ballot drop this week Spencer Pratt did not receive a single vote. The votes all went to the two far left Marxists he is running against!

in one batch incumbent Karen Bass added more than twelve thousand votes to her total, Nithya Raman added nearly ten thousand votes to her total, but Spencer Pratt added none at all. Other candidates continued to accumulate support in the same tranche.

Of course, this is statistically impossible.

Leave it to The Los Angeles Times to jump in and defend the election corruption!

Journalist Kevin Rector clears this all up by declaring this a glitch!

Trump Says “They’re Rigging the Election” in California as Counting Continues – “They Found a Lot of Mail-in Ballots Last Night”

President Trump sounded the alarm on California on Thursday, telling reporters, “They’re rigging the election,” as counting continues across the state and key races for California governor and Los Angeles mayor remain undecided. 

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt had surged on election night, taking an early lead over Democratic Councilwoman Nithya Raman and trailing incumbent Democrat Mayor Karen Bass by a slim margin. The two top vote-getters will advance to a runoff if no candidate receives over 50% of the vote.

However, the late-arriving mail-in votes, which are expected to be roughly a third of the total vote, will take days to arrive under California’s lawless vote-by-mail system.

As of 2:47 pm ET, 62% of ballots in the Los Angeles mayor’s race had been counted. Only Bass has been projected to advance to the runoff in November, where she will face either Spencer Pratt or Nithya Raman.

Trump Says Accountability Is Coming Over The ‘Rigged’ 2020 Election

In a new, wide-ranging interview on “Pod Force One” with Miranda Devine, President Donald Trump is saying out loud what he says a growing body of evidence increasingly supports: the 2020 election was rigged, the people responsible are known, and something is coming for them.

Trump was unambiguous. “We had a rigged election,” he told Devine. “I used to say that a year and a half ago, the election was rigged. And the cameras would literally turn off. Yeah. And the anchor would say, ‘Sir, you’re not allowed to say that.’ Now nobody ever turns off the camera because it’s been proven to be rigged.”

Trump added, “Look at what happened in Georgia. Look at all the stuff that we found out. It was a rigged election. Biden lost in a landslide.”

Trump went further, connecting the consequences of that election and the disasters that followed, including Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which, Trump says, “would have never happened” had he still been in office. And, of course, there was Biden’s border crisis, which resulted in, by Trump’s count, 25 million illegal immigrants into the United States in four years, many of whom, he said, were criminals.

“And fentanyl deaths,” Devine pointed out.

“Yeah. He was the worst president,” Trump argued. “And we were laughed at all over the world as a country. We’re not laughed at anymore. We have the hottest country anywhere in the world.”

Devine pressed him directly on the accountability for what happened in the 2020 election. “So someone has to be punished, though, for that,” she said. “So how do you do that?”

“Well, you don’t have to punish them all,” he said. “I’d rather not get into it. Let’s see what happens. The election was rigged. We know who rigged the election. We know it. We know everything now. You know, we have information that nobody thought was possible. But when you get to office, all of a sudden, people start giving you things.”
