How Minnesota Allows Noncitizens to Vote Automatic Voter Registration at DMV

When Governor Tim Walz signed the Minnesota automatic voter registration bill into law in May 2023, most people assumed it would only allow eligible U.S. citizens to be automatically registered to vote. They were wrong.

U.S. citizenship is an eligibility requirement to vote in Minnesota, according to Article VII Section 1 of the State Constitution.

But now, with the new Minnesota drivers license application form, there are no questions, check boxes, or signed oaths regarding citizenship whatsoever, anywhere; only a paragraph, in the tiniest of print, at the very bottom of the form saying:

“If you provide documentation showing you are not a U.S. citizen at the time of application, no data will be sent to the Office of the Secretary of State.”

This craftily constructed sentence defines the ONLY criteria under which a new applicant’s data must not be sent to the Secretary of State and registered to vote.

There are no requirements on the form to show citizenship or even attest to it. That means if an illegal immigrant, with an easily obtainable SS#, chooses not to provide documentation showing they are not a U.S. citizen at the time of application, they will be automatically registered to vote.

The language appears to have been purposefully written to absolve state officials from any responsibility to protect Minnesota voter rolls and leaves the door wide open to voter fraud.

“Governor Walz and Secretary Simon are intent on destroying election safeguards in Minnesota. Our elections mean nothing if we don’t trust the people governing them.” – Andrew Cilek, Executive Director, Minnesota Voters Alliance (MVA)

The MVA has sent data requests to both the Commissioner of the Department of Public Safety and to the Secretary of State to address relevant statutory issues related to preventing noncitizens from registering to vote and voting. A response date is requested by September 24, 2024.

Jerome Corsi Reveals Dr. Andrew Paquette’s Report Has Been Filed with Ohio Secretary of State on Cryptographic Algorithm Secretly Embedded in Ohio’s Board of Election Voter Registration Database

The Gateway Pundit reported earlier on Jerome Corsi, Ph.D., and Andrew Paquette, Ph.D., meeting with the official Ohio Secretary of State’s Inquiry regarding alleged evidence of secret algorithms encoded into the Ohio State Board of Elections official Ohio voter registration database with a presumed purpose of facilitating mail-in ballot fraud.

In a one-hour-and-twenty-minute meeting, Corsi and Pacquette presented to Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose’s office a series of voter ID scatterplots for various counties. Corsi and Pacquette told The Gateway Pundit that these scatterplots revealed undeniable evidence that mathematical formulas had been secretly applied to create a cryptographic assignment of State Board of Election Voter ID numbers in Ohio, a fact previously unknown to the Ohio Board of Elections.

On Monday, a complaint was filed with the Ohio Secretary of State — with all the documentation on the CRYPTOGRAPHIC ALGORITHM that Dr. ANDREW PAQUETTE found embedded in the Ohio Board of Elections Official Database.

GodsFiveStones suggests that the preliminary report submitted to the Ohio Secretary of State and the Ohio Attorney General on Monday, September 16, 2024, Andrew Paquette, Ph.D., identified a complex cryptographic algorithm embedded in the voter identification numbers of three counties in the Ohio State Board of Elections voter registration that he believes were designed “for the purpose of covert data manipulation.”

In his 22-page heavily illustrated mathematical analysis, Paquette has allegedly discovered that an algorithmic scheme based on modular mathematics was employed, likely unbeknownst to Ohio State Board of Election officials, to determine the assignment of voter identification (ID) numbers in three Ohio counties: Franklin, Lucas, and Montgomery.

Paquette explained the principal question of his investigation in Ohio: “Do Ohio’s voter rolls exhibit evidence of algorithmic manipulation for covert tagging or selective data obstruction? Paquette answered both questions in the affirmative. He stressed: “For this paper, the issue isn’t whether ‘algorithms’ were used to assign or modify Ohio voter roll identification numbers. Literally, they were. The real issue is whether the algorithms used were unnecessarily complex, performed hidden or inexplicable tasks, or exhibited any unusual characteristics.”

Further, Paquette allegedly discovered that a modular algorithm encryption scheme was embedded in the ID numbering in Franklin, Lucas, and Montgomery counties by first finding a pattern where ID numbers were incrementing unusually by “gaps” divisible by 8, such that the following ID assigned was +8 the previous, with gaps of 8, 16, and 24, such that ID number 27is incremented next to ID number 35 (+8 from 27), next to 43 (+8 from 35), next to 51 (+8 from 43), to 59 (+8 from 51). The arithmetic algorithm then assigns the following numbers in an offset from ID 59 to ID 65 (+6 from 59) before reverting to another sequence of +8 offsets. Originally, Paquette called the algorithm the “octagon” before realizing he was dealing with modular arithmetic—a realization that caused Paquette to relabel the algorithm “Modulus 8.”

Massive “ERROR” in Arizona Validates Nearly 100,000 Voter Registrations Without Verifying Citizenship — Issue Has Existed for 20 YEARS

A so-called error in the Arizona Motor Vehicle Department’s (MVD) system, which provides driver’s license information to the state’s voter registration system for citizenship verification, has caused 97,000 voter registrations to be approved without verifying citizenship.

This has apparently been happening for 20 years and was somehow not discovered until now.

This comes just days before military and overseas ballots are set to be mailed out on Thursday. Early ballots will be sent to voters across the state on October 9.

Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer announced on Tuesday that his office is suing the Secretary of State’s office after discovering a loophole in the state’s voter registration system that, Richer says, for 20 years has allowed individuals who received a driver’s license before 1996 to vote without citizenship verification.

The issue has existed since 2004, when Arizona began requiring documentary proof of citizenship to vote. Licenses issued before Arizona required proof of citizenship to drive in 1996, regardless of citizenship status, showed as proof of citizenship on file with the MVD.

“If a driver received a license prior to 1996, he did not have a documented proof of citizenship on file. But then, if he got a duplicate license (e.g. in the case of losing a license), the issuance date would be updated in the statewide voter registration’s interface with MVD,” Richer said.

“The number is about 97,000 registrants across the state.” According to the lawsuit, “there are 53,445 Affected Voters in Maricopa County.”

PA DMV Refuses Trump Voter Registration Group, Weeks After Allowing Illegals To Be Registered At Same Facility

Early Vote Action Regional Director Bobby Jeffries has just exposed how the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation allowed an unknown and unidentified non-profit group to register illegal-immigrants and felons on taxpayer property.

When Jeffries was sent a tip about this activity by a Pennsylvania Department of Transportation employee, he sprung into action and went to the Harrisburg PennDot location to ask for permission to register LEGAL voters at the same facility. The tipster asked to remain anonymous, for fear of losing their livelihood.

PennDOT initially agreed to do so. Jeffries recently exposed how General Scott Perry, a sitting member of the United States Congress, and avowed Trump supporter, is facing a globalist-funded Democrat.

Oregon DMV admits to illegally registering hundreds of non-citizens since 2021 via motor voter program

More than 300 non-citizens were mistakenly registered to vote in Oregon over the past three years due to errors by the state’s Driver and Motor Vehicles (DMV) services. The issue arose after Oregon passed a bill allowing individuals to obtain driver’s licenses without needing to prove US citizenship. Oregon’s elections are conducted via mail-in ballots.

According to Oregon Secretary of State LaVonne Griffin-Valade, the error occurred when DMV staff mistakenly selected “US passport” or “US birth certificate” instead of foreign equivalents while entering documentation data for individuals applying for driver’s licenses. This error led to non-citizens being added to the voter registration system.

Griffin-Valade noted that of the more than 300 improperly registered individuals, only two are believed to have actually cast ballots. It remains unclear whether those individuals were citizens at the time of voting. Once the error was identified on Thursday, the affected individuals were notified by mail that they would not receive ballots unless they are eligible voters, according to a report by KGW8.

“Safeguarding the integrity of our elections is my top priority,” said Griffin-Valade. “When my office was made aware of this error, we moved quickly to update the voter rolls. I am also personally calling on the DMV to take immediate action to improve its processes to ensure this doesn’t happen again.”

Oregon Governor Tina Kotek reassured the public that the error “will not impact the 2024 election in any way,” and added that the DMV was taking “urgent corrective action” to prevent similar mistakes in the future.

PA Supreme Court rules that misdated ballots must not be counted

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has determined that the two biggest counties in the state do not have to count mail-in ballots that have either the wrong date or no date where indicated on the outer envelope. The ruling was 4 to 3, with those 3 justices writing a dissent in the case.

The order from the court found that the lower court, which had ruled that those ballots must be counted even with the errors, lacked jurisdiction in the case because only Allegheny and Philadelphia Counties were mentioned in the case and not all of the state’s 67 counties.

The order reads: “AND NOW, this 13th day of September, 2024, the order of the Commonwealth Court is VACATED. The Commonwealth Court lacked subject matter jurisdiction to review the matter given the failure to name the county boards of elections of all 67 counties, and because the joinder of Al Schmidt, in his official capacity as Secretary of the Commonwealth, did not suffice to invoke the Commonwealth Court’s original jurisdiction.”

In practice, this means that in the coming presidential election, officials will not count any ballots that are either misdated or undated ballots. The jurisdiction issue could be addressed by the plaintiffs in the case before the election. The plaintiffs are listed as Black Political Empowerment Project, Power Interfaith, Make the Road Pennsylvania, OnePA Activists, New PA Project Education Fund, Casa San Jose, Pittsburgh United, League of Women Voters of Pennsylvania and Common Cause Pennsylvania.

A spokesman from the Pennsylvania Department of State said that it was “disappointing” and that it “leaves unanswered the important question of whether the dating requirement violates the Pennsylvania Constitution, as the Commonwealth Court found,” reported The New York Times.

Why Are Georgia Republicans Trying To Shut Down Election Integrity Efforts?

Afuror has erupted in Georgia over the Aug. 29 launch of a controversial fundraising campaign for the State Election Board (SEB). The crowdfunding effort was started by “Friends of the Georgia State Election Board” led by Kylie Kremer, executive director of Women for America First, acting in her personal capacity. The group has a stated goal of raising over a half million dollars to help fund the general activities of the board, and their efforts have rekindled debate over the struggle for control of the board and its semi-independence from the secretary of state.

The reason for this outside funding effort is that, while the board is dealing with a firestorm of criticism from Democrats, it is also being deliberately hamstrung by some Republicans. In particular, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, Gov. Brian Kemp, and Attorney General Chris Carr have been impeding the board, according to Kremer and donor comments left on her fundraising page.

Raffensperger has recently become openly critical of the board he once chaired over rulemaking and other actions he opposes. Raffensperger has been fiercely criticized by election integrity advocates for his lax handling of the 2020 election. Ironically, one of Georgia election integrity advocates’ biggest criticisms of Raffensperger is his enabling of $41 million in private funding for state election offices, via the controversial “Zuckbucks” grants. Critics say that huge amount of cash allowed partisan operatives to use state resources to run get-out-the-vote operations for Democrats and ultimately narrowly swung the election for President Joe Biden.

Raffensperger has also been accused by election integrity activists — many of whom are former supporters turned critics — like me, Jason Frazier, Kevin Moncla, David Cross, and others — of deliberately suppressing legitimate and consequential cases brought to his office in order to prevent them from being heard by the SEB. Worse, the statute of limitations for many of the 2020 election law violations alleged in those cases will soon expire.

In an email sent to Anna Bower, Senior Editor at Lawfare, which she then posted on X, SEB Chairman John Fervier said the board “has no association with any outside group reportedly raising funds” and “will not be accepting any funds that are raised by outside organizations or groups.”

Board member Dr. Jan Johnston tells me she concurs, adding that “While the State Election Board certainly does need additional funding, it must be done through the proper channels.”

But with Georgia reportedly running a budget surplus of over $2 billion, the most obvious question here is, “Why is this happening?” And that is often followed with, “Can the board even accept the money?”

SHAMEFUL: Biden Admin’s John Kirby Said to Ignore Afghanistan Veterans Because They Don’t Vote Democrat

John Kirby of the Biden administration has just been caught saying something truly shameful about American veterans.

He did not realize that he had hit ‘reply all’ on an email inquiry sent to his office by FOX News seeking comment on veterans and the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Kirby’s response stated that there was ‘no use in responding’ because these veterans are not Harris voters.

FOX News reported:

Kirby: ‘No use in responding’ to a ‘handful of vets’ on Biden’s botched Afghan withdrawal

On the anniversary of 9/11, White House National Security Council communications adviser John Kirby dismissed the concerns of military veterans critical of the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, writing in response to a Fox News Digital press inquiry that there’s “no use” weighing in on the veterans’ views.

“Obviously no use in responding. A ‘handful’ of vets indeed and all of one stripe,” Kirby said in a “reply all” email chain Wednesday afternoon that appeared to be intended for White House staffers, but which also included Fox News Digital.

Fox News Digital had reached out to the White House earlier Wednesday afternoon regarding critical comments from four veterans, including Rep. Cory Mills, R-Fla., who blasted Kirby for his Monday press conference that they said provided “cover” for the Biden administration’s 2021 withdrawal…

Kirby’s message was sent in error, with him following up with a Fox News Digital reporter, “Clearly, I didn’t realize you were on the chain.” Kirby sent the email while traveling with President Biden on the anniversary of 9/11.

People are really angry about this and rightfully so.

Election Officials Warn of Potential Voting Chaos Due to Mail System Failures

On Wednesday, state and local election officials from across the country warned that issues with the mail delivery system could disenfranchise voters in the upcoming presidential election. In a concerning letter, they informed the U.S. Postal Service head that ongoing deficiencies have not been addressed.

Officials reported that over the past year and during the recent primary season, mailed ballots postmarked on time were often received days past the counting deadline. 

They also highlighted issues with properly addressed election mail being returned as undeliverable, which could inadvertently place voters on inactive status and cause confusion when they attempt to vote. 

The officials also stated that their repeated attempts to address these issues with the Postal Service had been unsuccessful, noting that the widespread nature of the problems indicated that they were not isolated incidents or issues with specific facilities but rather a systemic failure to understand and enforce USPS policies among employees.

The Evil Hypocrisy of Government ‘Elections’ Is at Levels Beyond Imagination

“Hypocrisy is the audacity to preach integrity from a den of corruption.”

~ Wes Fesler

We live in a country of political hypocrites in every single aspect of government and far beyond; gaslighting, brainwashing, indifference, gullibility, and idiocy, all  among a nation of fools. Life for most has become little more than irrational and moronic  false perception, while reality today is aggressively abandoned like rats fleeing a sinking ship. In this exploitable atmosphere, truth is seen as something to fear and ignore, while lies and deceit are accepted carte blanche. This seems to be the nature of the common human animal, as in this current world and time, most all those who consider themselves to be ‘intellectually capable,’ are simply cogs in the wheels of an asinine normalcy that relies on collective stupidity.

So what do we have here? At this point, we have Trump and Vance ‘against’ Harris and Walz; four more ego-driven, narcissistic, economically ignorant, insane, evil, and criminal scum could not be found. With that said, the majority of all voters are now anguishing over which new master they wish to hand massive power and control, while relinquishing all their freedom, property, and likely their lives. There is no way to soften the blow here, as any who voluntarily choose a master by vote or consent, have given up all liberty, and agreed to their own enslavement. This is why the term “master/ slave society” is so appropriate in this land of tyranny and totalitarian rule called America.

Consider this paraphrased analogy in order to put things in the proper perspective. Your choices for president are between Jeffery Dahmer and Ted Bundy, and you have to decide for which to vote. On the one hand, Bundy killed many more people, but Dahmer actually ate his victims. Bundy was said to be a “charming, articulate, and intelligent man” who murdered women, while Dahmer killed and ate men. A tough option to be sure for those in this society, so which one would you vote for in an election where these were your only two choices? (Thanks to Larken Rose for the analogy) Unless you are braindead or completely psychotic,  you would not vote for either of these two criminal murderers, but then, elections are all based on this same type of scenario, so voting , all voting, is nothing more than a total surrender to rule.
