After engineer and data scientist Kim Brooks worked on cleaning the voter rolls in Georgia for a year, she realized she was on a stationary bicycle. She’d clear a name for various reasons, dead, felon, stolen ID, living at a seasonal campground for twenty years, duplicate, moved out of state, 200 years old, etc., and back it would come within a month. At that juncture she realized that a program within the Georgia voter registration database was methodically adding back fake names.

She looked deeper. For new registrants, the culprit was principally Driver’s Services creating new registrations and in this case, the manufacturer was a person, or persons. Within the government office, someone was stealing names and duplicating, even tripling that person’s vote and then forging their signature. Sometimes it was someone who just died, or a teacher who had no voting record. In the case of a nurse who died in 2022 with three registrations, she was registered to vote in two counties, and all three of her voted in the 2022 election and the 2024 primary. Each signature was slightly different, the last three letters spelled, ly, ley, and lley

This operation works under AVR, or automatic voter registration, and is being used to register migrants. They will not vote, but their names have been entered into the Voter Registration database when they apply for a driver’s license and their vote will be voted for them. I imagine that this is repeating something everyone knows, but the borders are open for precisely this reason, so the Democrat/RINO machine can steal their votes. By the way, the process for advancing permanent residency has been cut from 11 months to two.

In 2020, twenty states used operation AVR. Of those, Trump lost 18.

That’s because there are registration fraud rings, as identified in the Arabella doc. and in the work of Omega4America. This worked well in Michigan, where, according to Captain Seth Keshel, who is one of the leads on this fight, believes that Trump likely got 576,443 more votes than were counted and won Michigan by 8.5%. ...

Michigan has two million more registered voters than they should have. 83.5% of the state is registered to vote but only 77.9% is over 18. – Seth Keshel ...

There are just so many votes NGO’s can manufacture, no matter how hard they work. And work they do, as soon as they determine the number of votes from the voting machines in the late hours of voting day. Hence the panicked, simultaneous, across-the-swing-states voting shutdown in 2020.

Everyone who has dug into election fraud has come to the same conclusion. At the coal face, with the assistance of literally tens of thousands of NGO’s funded by the usual suspects, the government is running the show. The county clerks, the lawyers and judges, various functionaries are the ones stealing the election. Some of them are unwitting, many not. All are breaking federal law. ...

They steal an individual’s driver’s license number, her social security number, her birthdate, her height and weight, stay the same, but the address will be fake and so would the signature.

“Generally they use people who don’t vote. They change a street number, a county, a signature: “But only a little fake, in the case of a nurse whose vote was stolen three times over, the last three letters of the signature were changed: ly, ley, lly…”

Each instance of identity theft is criminal; the fine is $50,000.

After the 2020 vote, registrants, whose voter history showed they had only voted in the 2020 election, were cancelled, only to reappear for 2022. “Votes are being deleted, swapped and diluted before , during and after an election.”

Wherever you look in the swing states, and unnervingly in the not-swing states, the same pattern is emerging. Especially in the south, where the left’s stated goal is to overwhelm what they call the “new confederacy”. ...

Claire Woodall, head of the Wisconsin Election Commission, first gave counters a two hour dinner break on election day, then at 10:30 declared the counting done and sent observers home. Retired Army Colonel David Bolter did not go along with others, and made a sworn deposition, with two others, that a young black guy brought in ballots in at 1;!5 am. At 2:30 a.m., Maria Sanchez punched in, and was witnessed feeding ballots through the tabulators. At 3:06 am, they have video of Claire leaving in a 512 Squad Car with the vote tally.

After relentless exposure, Woodhall was fired.



Another suit seeks to ban the connection of Dominion machines to the internet. The Wisconsin team has gone through 2.5 million lines of computer code from Dominion software and IT experts found that the machines are adjudicating ballots.

A third is a legal challenge from six citizens who found 55,000 voters who shouldn’t be on the voter rolls, which is a 21% error rate in Madison alone. Those specific 55,000 won’t be returning.

Harris doesn't stand a chance in my opinion. It would take epic levels of cheating. I'm talking 100k population in a county and they get 140k votes overall. It would have to be so obvious.

I don't answer my phone and live in a heavy blue state. Anyone ever actually get polled? I'm not registered for either party, so you'd think that I'd be the target to be polled. A registered D or R vote is obvious 90% of the time so why poll them?

Trump wins in a landslide if that polling is correct. Cheating aside, the +1 for Harris in Wisconsin is bull shit and +2 in MI. The problem you have is IL people that have 2nd properties in WI and MI. No one actually wants to live in Indiana, so that's why it's not a swing state. WI and MI are not going to check voter rolls. Who is going to stop you from voting in two states if you own property?

It's a 1-3 hour drive from Chicago to most places Chicagoans go in WI or MI. Election day is a holiday now in most states. So a lot of people have the day off. If they can get a state ID in another state, they most certainly can register to vote there and spend a day at the cabin and vote or mail it in.

Wins and losses. On Saturday, the Washington Examiner ran a story headlined, “Court rules Cornel West can’t be on ballot in Pennsylvania.” Pennsylvania Democrats successfully stopped another third-party candidate from running in the tossup state...

The democrat majority Pennsylvania court of appeals found that, even though major party candidates need not submit affidavits with their application to appear on the ballot, third-party candidates must, so West’s application was deficient.

West’s lawyers haven’t yet said whether West will appeal to the state’s Supreme Court.

Don’t complain! Democrats are suing everywhere to stop voters from choosing third-party candidates because Democrats are trying to save democracy. This is totally different from what South American communists do because reasons.

But there was also good news for folks who believe in voting for candidates instead of selecting them. Also on Friday, a Michigan court ruled against Democrats, holding that Dr. West can appear on the ballot in that state. Michigan is another key tossup state. So.

WookieMan says

Harris doesn't stand a chance in my opinion.

AGAIN Your opinion doesn't matter. Neither does mine or pretty much everyone else on PatNet.

This comes down to cheating where they can (Michigan just passed a law denying jurisdiction of its own courts over election fraud cases, for example) and an extremely small sliver of voters who are basically retarded children you wouldn't trust to get your order at Taco Bell to ("I liked Kamala's silk scarf she wore the other day so I'll vote for her. Besides I saw online Trump raped that lady!" <--- NO I am not being pedantic. They 'think' this way, not kidding)

My sister in law is voting for Harris because republicans teased Walz's disabled son.

She has other reasons, mostly because Trump is mean, racist, and misogynist.

You can't even try to use logic on committed Kamala fans.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that the Georgia Election Board voted 3-2 in favor of a new rule that mandates election workers to compare the total number of ballots cast with the total number of unique voter ID numbers in the system.

This crucial regulation aims to ensure that every vote cast is legitimate, allowing for thorough investigations into any discrepancies before election results can be certified.

Under this new rule, if any precinct shows that the number of ballots exceeds the number of unique voter IDs, counties must withhold certification of those election results until a complete investigation into potential fraud is conducted.

The specifics of the newly approved regulation are clear:

Tabulating Results: By 3 PM on the Friday following an election, the Election Board must review precinct returns, including absentee ballots and provisional ballots. The total number of unique voter IDs will be compared against total ballots cast.

Investigating Discrepancies: If discrepancies arise—where ballots exceed unique voter IDs—the Board is mandated to investigate thoroughly before any votes from that precinct are counted.

Certification of Results: Only after all discrepancies have been resolved can results be certified. This ensures that every vote reflects the true will of the people.

Moreover, Board members are empowered to scrutinize all election-related documentation prior to certifying results, ensuring potential fraud is detected and addressed before they become official. If fraud is uncovered, appropriate actions will be taken, including reporting findings to district attorneys.

However, instead of supporting these measures aimed at protecting electoral integrity, the DNC and its affiliates have chosen to sue the State Election Board over these rules.

If the election is truly safe and secure, there’s no reason to worry—unless they’re planning to cheat.

In the swing states the methods used by Democrats to steal the 2020 and 2022 elections have been legalized. Moreover, if news reports are correct, in some, perhaps all, of the swing states it is now illegal to challenge election outcomes.

If you will remember, when Kamala Harris competed for the presidential nomination in 2020, she was immediately eliminated. She had zero support.

If you will remember, she has been an unpopular vice president.

Yet today the media presents her as leading Trump, who continues to turn out massive attendance at his appearances, as the likely next president.

The media uses rigged polls and positive coverage of Kamala and negative coverage of Trump to create in the voting public’s mind the expectation of a Kamala victory.

The polls are rigged by overweighting Democrats in the polled population.

Google Kamala and you will find 90% of the information is favorable.

Google Trump and 90% is unfavorable.

By creating the expectation of a Kamala victory, the ground is laid for stealing the election. It is not possible to steal an election unless the election is close or the person for whom the election is stolen is presented as the leading candidate.

Ask yourselves, how did Kamala go from zero support among Democrats to the leading presidential contender?

She did not win the primary election as there was no primary.

She has not had any debates, much less triumphed in one. ...

Patrick says

Under this new rule, if any precinct shows that the number of ballots exceeds the number of unique voter IDs, counties must withhold certification of those election results until a complete investigation into potential fraud is conducted.

Sounds like common sense.

How far we have diverged.

https://slaynews.com/news/video-shows-blm-activist-election-worker-destroying-trump-ballots-2020/

A shocking video has just emerged online that shows an election worker destroying ballots that were cast for President Donald Trump in the 2020 race.

The video appears to have been recorded by a Black Lives Matter (BLM) activist who was filming himself sorting through ballots cast in the 2020 election and destroying any that were marked for Trump.

He can be seen clearly holding the ballots up to the camera before opening them, tearing them up, and throwing them in the trash.

The footage appears to have been filmed and streamed on social media using a smartphone selfie camera as the video is flipped like a mirror image.

The video shows the “Black Lives Matter” logo in the corner, suggesting the leftist election worker was destroying ballots for BLM.

The election worker is heard explaining that he’s “separating” ballots that were cast for Trump.

“If some of these votes happen to say, like this one, Donald J. ‘dumb’ Trump,” the man says while holding the ballot up to the camera and pointing out Trump’s name.

He then tears the ballot to shreds and throws it away while explaining:

“That one just ain’t gonna make it for us so we’ll just go to the next one.”

Ask Trump if he genuinely believes that he won the 2020 election, and if so why the rest of his party didn't support him. Because surely if the Democrats had actually stolen the election, the Republican leadership wouldn't have let themselves just be walked over.

Are you kidding, Paul?

Like, seriously, are you fucking joking me right now? Or is this one of those Machiavellian things where you pretend not to know stuff?

If you really are this clueless, why are you not bankrupt right now?

Things really must be easier at the top.

I'll spell it out.

Donald Trump is not a republican.

Donald Trump was never a republican.

Donald Trump has skinned the republican party and is wearing it as a hat.

He was able to do this because he is a businessman and his major skill is brand-building. He understood that the republican "leadership" was completely out of touch with what their voters (whom they despise) wanted, and he resolved to create his own brand and steal all their customers.

Which he did.

He did by talking about things republican voters actually care about:

Border security and an end to demographic replacement.
Safeguarding the American economy from offshoring.
Law and order.
Ending foreign wars whose sole purpose is to line the pockets of military contractors.
Rooting corruption and unaccountable bureaucrats out of DC.

This after decades of corrupt, disgusting skinwalkers like McCain.

So they hate him. Of course they hate him. How could they not hate him?

Moreover, how can you not see that they hate him?

You're probably just pretending.

They don't just hate him because he stole their show.

They hate him because they don't want any of these issues addressed. They may not be the party in power right now, but they are full participants in the kleptocracy, and they want their thirty pieces of silver.

They have been profiting, personally profiting, off their status as the controlled opposition for decades, and they want us busy arguing about abortions and trannies so we don't ask uncomfortable questions like "Is Israel really our greatest ally?" and "Where exactly in the Ukraine is all this money going?"

But they don't dare admit how much they hate Donald Trump, because republican voters love him, and they will end the whole political career of any republican politician who dares to oppose him.

So the GOP party apparatchiks, the old guard... they want to lose.

They wanted to lose in 2020, and they want to lose this one, so they can get back to business as usual, and try to elect one of their swamp monsters next time around.

That's why, in 2020, they put on some silk stockings, their favorite little red dress, and some lipstick, batted their eyes at the democrats, and whispered "Gosh, it would be such a shame if someone stuffed every ballot box in every swing state in America!"

Wink wink.

That's why Mike Pence, who loathes mainstream republican voters and was only ever interested in the evangelicals he was picked to appease, suddenly pretended to have no idea what this picture means:



And to be totally unable to locate the phone number of a single fucking actuary or statistics professor who could tell him that this IS the evidence, you fucking case of grocery-store-brand canned vegetables.

Which leaves me with the question of whether you, yourself, are too stupid to know what this picture means, or just so fucking evil that you will play all three monkeys and allow elections to be rigged just because it's your tribe doing to the rigging.

Either way, do us all a favor and stuff a rolled up sock in your mouth so it doesn't keep saying dumb stuff.

The DOJ is in PANIC mode that Wisconsin towns Thornapple and Lawrence have chosen to count their 2024 election ballots by hand without the use of electronic voting machines

Merrick Garland's mafia sent a letter to the town officials, THREATENING them by “authorizing the filing of a lawsuit” unless they complied.

The Feds are trying to claim that the ONLY way disabled voters can vote is with a voting machine, which is next-level INSANITY. Apparently, no disabled people could vote before electronic voting machines were invented. In reality, they're going after these towns because they're setting an example for the rest of the country to follow

It also seems there's a coordinated effort between the DOJ and a disability rights NGO because they're arriving on the same battlefield against these towns together, “By ceasing to use electronic voting equipment and, instead, exclusively using paper ballots completed and tabulated by hand, Respondents are no longer using voting systems that are accessible for individuals with disabilities in a manner that provides the same opportunity for access and participation (including privacy and independence) as for other voters,” - Disability Rights Wisconsin in a complaint to the DOJ

Ask yourself this: Why do Democrats think towns with fewer than a thousand living in them need voting machines to count ballots? Why is the DOJ going scorched earth to make sure they use the machines?

Documents obtained by investigative journalist
@yehuda_miller
through the Freedom of Information Act,

CONFIRMS, BEYOND THE SHADOW OF A DOUBT,

It WAS A COUP UNCOVERED BY A MICHIGAN ELECTION CERTIFIER,

GBI strategies based in Michigan and operated in multiple swing states including Chicago, Iowa, South Carolina, Florida and Washington DC, funded by Joe Biden’s 2020 Presidential campaign BUSTED for submitting fraudulent voter registrations during the 2020 election cycle.

Following a raid, Michigan law enforcement discovered caches of pre-paid gift cards, semi-automatic rifles with silencers, four modified pistols with ammunition inside. and disposable burner phones.

Throughout the 2020 election period, these Democratic cartel election committees provided more than $4,000,000 to this criminal organization:

Biden for President: $450,000
Democratic Senatorial Campaign: $2,117,605
DNC Services Corp: $1,031,856
Democratic Party of Iowa: $493,100

The investigation was initiated following the observation of a Muskegon, Michigan, election official who noticed an individual submitting 8,000 to 12,000 completed voter registration applications in one day at the city office a head of the 2020 election.

This same individual returned multiple times, registering an additional 2,500 voters.

Thousands of these registrations displayed identical handwriting with fraudulent addresses and phone numbers.

Additionally signatures did not match those on filed with the fascist Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson.

🚨🚨And the icing on the cake.
+ 100,000 ballots cast in the Nov 3, 2020 election were also falsified at Jocelyn Benson’s own election headquarters.

Once it was turned over to the FBI and the DOJ with authority to investigate, the criminals decided to pass the buck to the same criminal, Secretary of State, Jocelyn Benson who was running it.

FOIA: “I am following up with some information on one of the most egregious situations that I encountered. There are many examples of significant election integrity issues, but this example involves actions of GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS from both the local and state levels that are shocking.”

The current prank, though, is to artificially pump-up Ms. Harris in the polls in the attempt to justify the coming ballot fraud to be executed two months from now, as engineered by election lawfare maestro Marc Elias, now on the Harris campaign payroll. That is, an effort to obviate any apparent discrepancies between actual poll numbers and harvested ballots flooding in at two o’clock in the morning on Nov 6.

RFK Jr. Ordered Off the Ballot In North Carolina and Michigan as Democrat Dirty Tricks Backfire ...

While RFK Jr. successfully ensured his name was removed in seven states, he remained on the ballot in North Carolina, Michigan, and Wisconsin thanks to Democrat maneuvering and rigged election boards. This could have potentially cost Trump enough votes in these states and handed Kamala Harris the election as RFK Jr drew more support from Trump. ...

The scheming by Democrats in the Wolverine State was even more blatant as corrupt Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson not only refused to let RFK Jr withdraw his name but fought to keep far-left independent candidate Cornel West OFF the ballot.

But the Michigan Court of Appeals saw through her blatant election interference and rightfully removed RFK Jr. As the Detroit Free Press reported, The Court of Appeals said that a section of state law cited by Benson in rejected Kennedy’s justified withdrawal request only applies only state office candidates, not to presidential candidates.

What about West? He still off the ballot.

This explains some things.

https://elizabethnickson.substack.com/p/black-swans-orchestrated-chaos-and

Migrant voting, says Engelbrecht, is shaping up to be the Black Swan event of the 2024 election, much like Covid was for 2020. Between 10 and 27% of the flood of migrants arrived since 2021 are already registered to vote. The lowest estimate of illegal migrants across the southern border is of about eleven million, which means about 1.2 million to 2.5 million additions to the voter rolls. As Absurdistan has shown several times - see below - these “registered voters” are used to manufacture ballots which are slid into the process during the days or even weeks-long adjudication process that follows election day.

The migrant flood onto the voter rolls had been planned for decades, and was put into action at the beginning of 1993 in the U.S.. Nor was it just planned for the U.S., It was effected across all the left-of-centre parties in western democracies in a targeted approach to weaken laws and provide access to taxpayer funds for migrants. And, through social services agencies, access to voter registration. All meant to bulk out votes for the left. ...

The Democrats say that migrants won’t vote because “it’s illegal”.

“The whole thing is illegal,” says Engelbrecht. “Their entry is illegal. They are almost all economic migrants, not refugees. The breakdown at the border is illegal. The Democrats want migrants to vote. They stood in lockstep against the Republicans in support of non-citizen voting.
This is nonsense. As many as 30% - 3,300,000 - have already been registered to vote. Remember, by my calculation, and the calculation of others closer to the coal face, the swing states were stolen for Biden in the lower mid-six-figures. The migrants may not go to the polls, but their votes will be entered. The migrants themselves do not have to vote. As described in detail here, their registration will be used by the NGO’s who fill out ballots during the chaos period. ...

In the late hours of November 5, once the machines, connected to the internet, demonstrate how many votes are needed to take the election for the Democrats, the NGOs start filling out the ballots which are, one way or another, slid into the process. The Parallel Election by Greg Stenstrom and Laura Hoopes, in the pivot country, Delaware, in Pennsylvania, describes using the sworn testimony of eye-witnesses, just how hundreds of thousands of ballots were moved into process, even moving pallets up and down elevator stacks to confuse observers, and over-written thumb drives. The book, as its subtitle says, is the blueprint for deception.

https://notthebee.com/article/a-loophole-in-wisconsin-election-law-will-let-up-to-150000-people-vote-without-showing-id

A damning report is raising the alarm about a legal loophole allowing thousands to vote in Wisconsin without showing photo identification as required by state law.

The Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty's Monday morning release reveals the ‘indefinitely confined' voter rolls have reached more than 144,000, up 116% since 2016.

This state accommodation designed for the disabled, elderly, ill and infirm came under the spotlight in 2020 when Wisconsin's two largest cities — Milwaukee and Madison — told citizens to use the little-known law to vote without a photo ID during COVID restrictions.

It's not little-known if all those ppl are using it.

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/oct/18/texas-democrats-ask-noncitizens-register-vote/

The Texas Democratic Party asked non-citizens to register to vote, sending out applications to immigrants with the box citizenship already checked “Yes,” according to new complaints filed Thursday asking prosecutors to see what laws may have been broken.

The Public Interest Legal Foundation alerted district attorneys and the federal Justice Department to the pre-checked applications, and also included a signed affidavit from a man who said some of his relatives, who aren’t citizens, received the mailing.

“This is how the Texas Democratic Party is inviting foreign influence in an election in a federal election cycle,” said Logan Churchwell, spokesman for the PILF, a group that’s made its mark policing states’ voter registration practices.

https://nypost.com/2020/08/29/political-insider-explains-voter-fraud-with-mail-in-ballots/

A top Democratic operative says voter fraud, especially with mail-in ballots, is no myth. And he knows this because he’s been doing it, on a grand scale, for decades.

Mail-in ballots have become the latest flashpoint in the 2020 elections. While President Trump and the GOP warn of widespread manipulation of the absentee vote that will swell with COVID polling restrictions, many Democrats and their media allies have dismissed such concerns as unfounded.

But the political insider, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he fears prosecution, said fraud is more the rule than the exception. His dirty work has taken him through the weeds of municipal and federal elections in Paterson, Atlantic City, Camden, Newark, Hoboken and Hudson County and his fingerprints can be found in local legislative, mayoral and congressional races across the Garden State. Some of the biggest names and highest office holders in New Jersey have benefited from his tricks, according to campaign records The Post reviewed.

“An election that is swayed by 500 votes, 1,000 votes — it can make a difference,” the tipster said. “It could be enough to flip states.”

The whisteblower — whose identity, rap sheet and long history working as a consultant to various campaigns were confirmed by The Post — says he not only changed ballots himself over the years, but led teams of fraudsters and mentored at least 20 operatives in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania — a critical 2020 swing state.

“There is no race in New Jersey — from city council to United States Senate — that we haven’t worked on,” the tipster said. “I worked on a fire commissioner’s race in Burlington County. The smaller the race, the easier it is to do.”

A Bernie Sanders die-hard with no horse in the presidential race, he said he felt compelled to come forward in the hope that states would act now to fix the glaring security problems present in mail-in ballots.

“This is a real thing,” he said. “And there is going to be a f–king war coming November 3rd over this stuff … If they knew how the sausage was made, they could fix it.”

Mail-in voting can be complicated — tough enough that 84,000 New Yorkers had their mailed votes thrown out in the June 23 Democratic presidential primary for incorrectly filling them out.

But for political pros, they’re a piece of cake. In New Jersey, for example, it begins with a blank mail-in ballot delivered to a registered voter in a large envelope. Inside the packet is a return envelope, a “certificate of mail in voter” which the voter must sign, and the ballot itself.

That’s when the election-rigger springs into action.

Phony ballots

The ballot has no specific security features — like a stamp or a watermark — so the insider said he would just make his own ballots.

“I just put [the ballot] through the copy machine and it comes out the same way,” the insider said.

But the return envelopes are “more secure than the ballot. You could never recreate the envelope,” he said. So they had to be collected from real voters.

He would have his operatives fan out, going house to house, convincing voters to let them mail completed ballots on their behalf as a public service. The fraudster and his minions would then take the sealed envelopes home and hold them over boiling water.

“You have to steam it to loosen the glue,” said the insider.

He then would remove the real ballot, place the counterfeit ballot inside the signed certificate, and reseal the envelope.

“Five minutes per ballot tops,” said the insider.

The insider said he took care not to stuff the fake ballots into just a few public mailboxes, but sprinkle them around town. That way he avoided the attention that foiled a sloppy voter-fraud operation in a Paterson, NJ, city council race this year, where 900 ballots were found in just three mailboxes.

“If they had spread them in all different mailboxes, nothing would have happened,” the insider said.

Inside jobs

The tipster said sometimes postal employees are in on the scam.

“You have a postman who is a rabid anti-Trump guy and he’s working in Bedminster or some Republican stronghold … He can take those [filled-out] ballots, and knowing 95% are going to a Republican, he can just throw those in the garbage.”

In some cases, mail carriers were members of his “work crew,” and would sift ballots from the mail and hand them over to the operative.

In 2017, more than 500 mail-in ballots in New York City never arrived to the Board of Elections for races that November — leaving hundreds disenfranchised. They eventually were discovered in April 2018. “For some undetermined reason, some baskets of mail that were bound to the New York City Board of Elections were put off to the side at the Brooklyn processing facility,” city elections boss Michael Ryan said at the time of discovery.

Nursing homes

Hitting up assisted-living facilities and “helping” the elderly fill out their absentee ballots was a gold mine of votes, the insider said.

“There are nursing homes where the nurse is actually a paid operative. And they go room by room by room to these old people who still want to feel like they’re relevant,” said the whistleblower. “[They] literally fill it out for them.”

The insider pointed to former Jersey City Mayor Gerald McCann, who was sued in 2007 after a razor-thin victory for a local school board seat for allegedly tricking “incompetent … and ill” residents of nursing homes into casting ballots for him. McCann denied it, though he did admit to assisting some nursing home residents with absentee ballot applications.

Voter impersonation

When all else failed, the insider would send operatives to vote live in polling stations, particularly in states like New Jersey and New York that do not require voter ID. Pennsylvania, also for the most part, does not.

The best targets were registered voters who routinely skip presidential or municipal elections — information which is publicly available.

“You fill out these index cards with that person’s name and district and you go around the city and say, ‘You’re going to be him, you’re going to be him,'” the insider said of how he dispatched his teams of dirty-tricksters.

At the polling place, the fake voter would sign in, “get on line and … vote,” the insider said. The impostors would simply recreate the signature that already appears in the voter roll as best they could. In the rare instance that a real voter had already signed in and cast a ballot, the impersonator would just chalk it up to an innocent mistake and bolt.

Bribing voters

The tipster said New Jersey homeless shelters offered a nearly inexhaustible pool of reliable — buyable — voters.

“They get to register where they live in and they go to the polls and vote,” he said, laughing at the roughly $174 per vote Mike Bloomberg spent to win his third mayoral term. He said he could have delivered the same result at a 70 percent discount — like when Frank “Pupie” Raia, a real estate developer and Hoboken nabob, was convicted last year on federal charges for paying low-income residents 50 bucks a pop to vote how he wanted during a 2013 municipal election.

Organizationally, the tipster said, his voter-fraud schemes in the Garden State and elsewhere resembled Mafia organizations, with a boss (usually the campaign manager) handing off the day-to-day managing of the mob soldiers to the underboss (him). The actual candidate was usually kept in the dark deliberately so they could maintain “plausible deniability.”

With mail-in ballots, partisans from both parties hash out and count ballots at the local board of elections — debating which ballots make the cut and which need to be thrown out because of irregularities.

The insider said any ballots offered up by him or his operation would come with a bent corner along the voter certificate — which contains the voter signature — so Democratic Board of Election counters would know the fix was in and not to object.

“It doesn’t stay bent, but you can tell it’s been bent,” the tipster said. “Until the [certificate] is approved, the ballot doesn’t matter. They don’t get to see the ballot unless they approve the [certificate.]”

“I invented bending corners,” the insider boasted, saying once the fixed ballots were mixed in with the normal ones, the bed was made. “Once a ballot is opened, it’s an anonymous ballot.”

While federal law warns of prison sentences of up to five years, busted voter frauds have seen far less punishment. While in 2018 a Texas woman was sentenced to five years, an Arizona man busted for voting twice in the mail was given just three years’ probation. A study by the conservative Heritage Foundation found more than 1,000 instances of documented voter fraud in the United States, almost all of which occurred over the last 20 years.

“There is nothing new about these techniques,” said Hans von Spakovsky, a senior legal fellow at Heritage who manages their election law reform initiative. “Everything he’s talking about is perfectly possible.“

The city Board of Elections declined to answer Post questions on ballot security.
