Well done, Dems!
Apparently, potential efforts to screw with mail-in ballots have already been uncovered by concerned citizens, as revealed in multiple reports originating from Nevada.
Nevada residents have the option to visit vote.nv.gov, which reveals if their ballots have been counted in their voting history.
Consequently, various voters across Nevada decided to do just that – only to discover a rather unsavory surprise.
Nevada resident Pat Wallace found out that he had allegedly “voted” in the recent special election … with one minor caveat.
“We just checked our voting history for the two of us and were surprised to find they confirmed our ‘Mail in Ballot’ … One problem – we didn’t send a mail-in ballot,” Wallace remarked in disbelief.
After hearing a similar story from other individuals, Las Vegas resident and registered Republican Daphne Lee also decided to check her own voting history, finding a similarly nasty surprise – a mail-in ballot had allegedly been cast in her name as well.
On top of that, Lee’s entire family apparently casted mail-in ballots.
Once again, neither Lee nor her family cast a mail-in ballot.
Worse, when Lee attempted to opt out of future mail-in ballots, the website declared that Lee was not registered to vote. And her voting history was wiped clean.
“It’s just so frustrating … This makes everyone uncomfortable,” Lee remarked to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
It’s beyond “uncomfortable” … It’s downright dangerous, especially as it’s rather odd that quite a few Nevada residents, notably many Republicans, seem to have had their mail-in ballots either tampered with or otherwise bizarrely affected for reasons unknown.
Unsurprisingly, the Nevada Republican Party has apparently received “numerous” complaints, prompting the chairman to take on the problem head-on.
Chairman Michael McDonald underscored the “serious” nature of the reports, making it clear that the Republicans would not stand down.
“We take these reports very seriously … The cornerstone of our Republic is the trust and confidence of the American people in the electoral process. Any indication of irregularities must be thoroughly investigated to ensure the integrity of our elections,” McDonald gravely intoned.
A spokesperson for the Office for Nevada Secretary of State has rapidly issued a pitiable defense, claiming that so-called “technical issues” were to blame for recent ballot mishaps.
“On Sunday, February 18, the Secretary of State’s Office became aware of possible technical issues related to the vote history of individuals who did not participate in the Presidential Preference Primary,” the spokesperson claimed.
“Technical issues.” Right.
That sounds about as convincing as a water pipe breaking in Atlanta when counting the 2020 ballots, which predictably delayed Georgia’s total vote count.
Perhaps even more predictably, the state barely went to Biden.
“Elections and IT staff began working on the issue immediately and met with county clerks and registrars this morning. We are working to resolve the issue as soon as possible and will provide further updates as we can,” the state spokesperson continued.
Well, it is without a doubt that elections officials and IT staff commenced “working on the issue immediately.”
The question is, what did they actually do? Do they even know what they’re doing, or are they just blindly following orders?
“It is important to note that vote history is generated separately from election results. Results on SilverStateElection.NV.gov and county canvasses of the votes are unaffected and accurate,” the state spokesperson insisted.
We’ll see about that.
