Election Integrity matters in national, state and local elections. Much of this concerns the 2020 election and matters involving Delaware County, Pa.
Dominion Answers Would Have Been Found If Fox Fought
Dominion Answers Would Have Been Found If Fox Fought — Fox, showing the courage for which corporate America is known, caved in its court case with Dominion Voting Systems confessing it told lies about the company after the 2020 election and paying it $787 million to avoid a $1.6 billion settlement.
One would have thought they would have at least gone to trial simply to keep their cred which would be higher with a fighting loss rather than rolling over.
One would have thought that even with a defeat in a jury trial they sill had numerous paths to appeal as Dominion would presumably fall under the public figure/public official standard created by New York Times vs Sullivan .
If the company that runs our elections is not a public official what exactly is?
Further, if Fox showed some spine it could have perhaps compelled Dominion officials to answer the questions they refused to take from the Pennsylvania Senate.
Further, the could have queried them about their strident opposition to software audits such as one they one they squelched in Fulton County, Pa.
And maybe they could have even brought up how Fulton County, itself, is suing Dominion. They could have maybe worked into the debate the findings of Wake Technology Services Inc. concerning Dominion machines.
The opposition to audits is obvious grounds for suspicion.
Cowardice is going to kill this country.
And regardless of whether the suspicions are grounded or that Dominion is evil or any other similar thought lurking in the minds of millions of Americans, why are we using private machines for our elections? Why does the intellectual property of corporations take precedence over election transparency?
Demand answers to these questions starting with your committeeman and take it all the way to the governor.
Oh, the latest concerning Fulton County regarding lawfare and the destruction of faith in our elections: https://www.inquirer.com/politics/election/fulton-county-dominion-voting-machines-sanctions-pa-supreme0court-20230419.html
Note that Pennsylvania’s partisan Supreme Court is not saying Wake TSI found nothing. It’s saying it shouldn’t have looked.

Delco Dems Plan Precinct Power Grab
Delco Dems Plan Precinct Power Grab — We have it on good authority that Democrats that control Delaware County, Pa. are planning a power grab designed to give them forever rule.
What is in the works — and is supposed to be in place by the November election — is the consolidation of precincts into massive voting districts.
Where this has happened namely in Oregon, Washington, Colorado and California, has been the disenfranchisement of voters unaligned with the ruling “credentialed” class.
The first target is reportedly Republican-leaning Aston.
For the record, the state Election Code limits precincts to 1,200 voters which is still too high. A good rule of thumb is that the election workers should be familiar with most of the voters.
Where is the outrage from the county Republicans?

Delco Election Case Before Commonwealth Court
Delco Election Case Before Commonwealth Court — Leah Hoopes and Greg Stenstrom told Emerald Robinson, yesterday, that Commonwealth Court has agreed to hear their appeal of allegations that Delaware County Election officials destroyed or are hiding evidence that the 2020 election was stolen.
See the interview here: https://rumble.com/v2i8fza-pa-court-will-reconsider-2020-election-fraud-case.html?fbclid=IwAR23faAO_huoWyrj_L1DxbjymmP_sY7ej_B3kJritYpXMeA7khIndQxShf4
Bucks County Election Case Before Commonwealth Court
Bucks County Election Case Before Commonwealth Court — A hearing Wednesday, April 5, in Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court concerned the interpretation of a state law stemming from election challenges filed in Bucks County.
What was in dispute was an apparent conflict between Section 1701 and Section 1703 of Article XVII of the Pennsylvania Election Code.
Section 1701 allows for three qualified voters of a district to demand the “ballot box” be opened “upon information which they consider reliable, they believe that fraud or error, although not manifest on the general return of votes, was committed.”
The respondents, which were the Bucks County Bureau of Elections and the Pennsylvania Department of State, argued that Section 1703 says that for elections that covered more than one district — which would be all elections except for Judges of Elections and similar offices — a petition would have to be filed in each district requiring three voters from each district and the placing of a bond. The bonds in a state-wide race would require several million dollars.
Section 1703 says “a recount or recanvass shall include all election districts in which ballots were cast for the office in question.”
Opening a single machine on suspicion is obviously not recounting an entire race. Improprieties one machine, however, could and should lead to investigating other machines, and a recount. Rigged ballots in one place are prima facie evidence of a stolen election, and the residency and bond requirements would not apply.
Attorney Andrew Teitelman, who was working pro bono, argued for 111 Bucks County residents who saw troubling events in the 2022 elections. Many filed pro se petitions to start things.
A decision is pending. Any decision will not affect the results of the election but would provide clarity for the future.
And we have been told that the Department of State did not insert itself in the case until two days prior to the hearing.
The hearing can be watched here.
CPA Says Biden Win Needs Auditing
CPA Says Biden Win Needs Auditing — Joseph Fried, an MBA and CPA, retired from the auditing firm he created so with time on his hands he investigated Joe Biden’s 2020 victory.
His conclusion is that an audit is most certainly, definitely positively needed.
Front Page Magazine spells out many of his specifics from many places in many states.
Delaware County, Pa. is among them.
Fried cites the hidden-camera videos showing patently illegal conduct – including the destruction of election records – on the part of election workers.
One showed two Delaware County election workers discussing the need “to destroy and/or hide 2020 election information requested under Pennsylvania’s ‘Right to Know’ laws.”
Smile Jim.
The county District Attorney closed his “investigation” into these videos without taking action.
It was worse than that, actually. Jack Stollsteimer sent a letter to County Council, which it read into the record, that only three videos were presented as evidence, that they had been taken from the internet and that they had been doctored.
The truth is that 37 videos were submitted as evidence, they came directly from the person who made them, and they had not been edited.
Delaware County was the last in Pennsylvania to report its vote totals – and before that report came in, Trump was winning the state.
Fried also includes the claim by Steven Miller, a professor of mathematics at Williams College, that around 90,000 of the absentee ballots purportedly requested by Republican voters had either been requested by persons other than those GOP voters or had been completed and sent in by those voters but never counted.
Miller was criticized for his data-set by other academics who, however, conceded that his math was correct.
Miller’s response was that did not claim his statement to be conclusive but rather potentially indicative.
“I am a strong believer that sunlight is the best disinfectant, that the best solution is to put things out there in the public,” he said.
Which gets us to why so many are certain Biden is not the legitimate president. Cover-ups and bald dismissals occur instead of taking the allegations seriously and investigating.
Miller is competent and highly respected. His data-set raises suspicions? Fine, develop one without the perceived flaws. Don’t attack him for telling you what you don’t want to hear.
Fried isn’t perfect. He says that more ballots were cast in Pennsylvania than registered voters. This stems from erroneous early reporting by the Statewide Uniform Registry of Electors that conflicted with what the Department of State was releasing. When everything was settled, ballots had been cast by only about 74 percent of registered voters, still a very high turnout.
And this is how you ease suspicions. You understand what the source of the suspicion is and address it with solid evidence in a transparent way.
We have not seen this done with Miller’s claims and it most certainly was not done by Stollsteimer.
It was most certainly not done in Fulton County, Pa. where the state actually crushed an attempt by the county to audit its Dominion voting machines.
Fried’s book Debunked: A Professional Auditor Reviews the 2020 Election came out four months ago.
Internet Enabled Poll Pads Considered For Delco
Internet Enabled Poll Pads Considered For Delco — Joy Schwartz, March 1, confronted Delaware County Council with its plan to replace the numbered list of voters, which is paper, with electronic poll pads.
The plan had been revealed earlier that day when a representative for KNOWiNK, an election technology firm, made a pitch to the Election Board.
Mrs. Schwartz, who has the Republican endorsement for this year’s county council race, noted that the poll pads are accessible to the internet and the software that runs them is proprietary.
She noted that the cost of elections has quadrupled over the last few years and things are far less efficient.
Councilwoman Christine A. Reuther responded during council comments that KNOWiNK is offering devices for free and electronic poll pads will soon be required by the state.
Everything offered for free by a for-profit company comes with a price, and proprietary software has no business in elections. Ms. Reuther pats herself on the back for helping de-privatize the county prison and now is just fine with privatizing our elections. Elections should never be privatized and proprietary software is unnecessary on election machines. It would be rather simple for our governments to hire contractors to write election software, which the public would own. We’ve known how to make computers tabulate since the 1940s.
Several other citizens brought up concerns about Delco elections including Kathy Buckley of Edgmont, who responded to an elderly man’s rant about election integrity activists and again described how, while a poll worker, was removed from the Wharf Counting Center the day after the 2022 primary election after she called attention to a unexpected bagful of ballots
Delco Brags About Successful Recount
Delco Brags About Successful Recount — Delaware County (Pa) published on its website a release bragging about its “successful” election recount.
“Everything was verified 100 percent,” said Delaware County Director of Elections James Allen. “Every single vote, every single contest, every single over vote, every single under vote, every single write in.”
The article was published Feb. 1. Allen is referring to a hand recount held at Union Power Plant building in Chester on Jan. 12 which concerned ballots from the 3rd Precinct of Haverford’s 2nd Ward from the November election.
It was an agreement devised by Judge Barry Dozor and would be non-binding with the purpose of alleviating the suspicions of vote fraud for those who brought the matter before him.
On Feb. 14, Erich Speckin, one of the recount observers, released a report saying the event was not as successful as Allen implied.
Actually, it was highly flawed, Speckin says.
Speckin of Speckin Forensics, is one of the nation’s most respected experts in document analysis. He has testified in cases ranging from Hollywood to Big Oil.
Speckin says Allen prohibited photographing documents and that “the mail-in ballots were not secured in the process from the time they are opened from the envelopes and stored in plastic totes.”
He said the ballots were counted quickly akin to how one would count a deck of cards.
Most damningly, the ballots had different shading in the backgrounds and color of red. This would not have happened if the ballots came from the same printer in Albany, N.Y., as Allen claims.
“If the process of shifting ballots were slowed down or the ballots actually examined under magnification, further instances of printing process anomalies may be found,” Speckin said.
He recommends an examination of a broader sampling of mail-in ballots.
Speckin’s report was read into the record by Joy Schwartz at the Feb. 15 County Council meeting.
Hey Jim, it’s not the crime that catches you but the cover-up. If you still insist the election was fair and honest let Speckin observe using standard parameters. There is no downside in letting him examine the ballots as he wants and to his heart’s content.
Granted, if the election was not fair and honest there would be a downside, but that would only apply to you.
Recount Raised Suspicions In Delaware County, Pa.; Why Play Games If No Vote Fraud?
Recount Raised Suspicions In Delaware County, Pa. — Judge Barry Dozor, in November, garnered an agreement for a hand recount of ballots in the 3rd Precinct of Haverford’s 2nd Ward from the just-past election.
It would be voluntary, non-binding and the sole purpose would be to alleviate the suspicions of vote fraud for those who brought the matter before him.
It was held Jan. 12.
At the Jan. 18 Delaware County Council (Pa.) meeting, Jim Allen, who is Delco’s director of election operations, crowed that it was found to be 100-percent in compliance with the official results, and those with concerns were allowed within two-feet of the ballots.
We heard him at the meeting and felt good. Maybe Delco, is not some kind of banana republic, after all.
But it looks like we were fooled.
You should have followed Democrat SOP, Jim, and kept them 20-feet away.
One of the observers was Erich Speckin of Speckin Forensics, one of the nation’s most respected experts in document analysis with a long legal track-record in cases ranging from Hollywood to Big Oil.
And yesterday, Feb. 14, he released a report.
He says the ground rules laid by Allen included a prohibition on photography of documents, something Speckin found unusual in his 29 years of experience, and found the ballots had been already placed in non-secured trays and bags upon their arrival.
“The mail-in ballots were not secured in the process from the time they are opened from the envelopes and stored in plastic totes,” said Speckin.
He said the manner in which the ballots were counted were akin to how one would count a deck of cards.
Damningly, the ballots had different shading in the backgrounds and color of red. This would not have happened if the ballots came from the same printer in Albany, N.Y., as Allen claims.
“If the process of shifting ballots were slowed down or the ballots actually examined under magnification, further instances of printing process anomalies may be found,” he said.
He recommended an examination of a broader sampling of mail-in ballots.
If Allen had nothing to hide why would he play games? Why not bend over backwards to ease all concerns about the legitimacy of the election? Let the ballots be photographed. Keep things secured until the count. Don’t shuffle the ballots like a card shark. Is he not aware that he is becoming a bit of a national figure?
Those running Delaware County should care that a large percent of residents have concerns about its elections. Obviously, they don’t.
County residents must not get discouraged, though. We must stay involved in the process. It is more important than ever that we vote as it is the only way to force their hand.
Below is Speckin’s statement. Click to enlarge.
Recount Raised Suspicions In Delaware County, Pa.; Why Play Games If No Vote Fraud?
Voting Is Critical Says Greg And Leah
Voting Is Critical Says Greg And Leah — Election integrity activists Leah Hoopes and Greg Stenstrom implored the listeners of Face The Culture, yesterday, Feb. 8, to stay involved and vote despite the ever-more visible depravities of the lizardly leaders of the Uniparty.
Greg and Leah are poll watchers from Delaware County, Pa. and the authors of The Parallel Election, a history of what occurred in Delco in 2020.
Face The Culture is hosted by Pastor Steve Gruen and Kim Kennedy and airs 7-8 p.m. EST weeknights on the Liberty Channel on RedStateTalkRadio.com. Archives can be found at FaceTheCulture.org. A link to yesterday’s show is here and below.
Even if a tenth of what the pair describe is true, huge problems remain obvious.
Leah notes that Delaware County has 46 percent of Pennsylvania’s election ballot drop boxes with 42. Maybe it’s hard to believe as Pennsylvania has 67 counties but Philadelphia, the largest county, has but 18, while Allegheny County, the second largest, has none.
Delco’s drop boxes are open 24/7 dubiously monitored by solar-powered cameras. Why would one need 24/7 drop boxes with mail-in voting anyway? Mailboxes are basically drop boxes. Getting rid of the county drop boxes would save money, simplify logistics and, most importantly, ease suspicions.
Challenge To Be Arrested
Leah, Greg and state rep candidate Ruth Moton filed a lawsuit In November 2021 based on information from a whistleblower regarding improprieties from a year before. The matter came before District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer as the revelations involved crimes.
Stollsteimer sent a letter to County Council, May 4, 2022, saying the allegations were fictions. He said comments on video by election workers were taken out of context or doctored. Council read the letter into the record May 18.
Sollsteimer said his investigation was based on three videos taken from the internet. He wouldn’t give the whistleblower, Regina Miller, a standard immunity agreement to let her speak freely.
Leah noted that their evidence, however, involved 37 videos and several audio files, all of which came directly from the whistleblower. None of it was from the internet. None of them were doctored.
She said presenting doctored evidence is a crime. She challenged Stollseimer to arrest them.
Leah said the attacks from the establishment have been relentless. She said she and Greg talked with noted author Mark Bowden for three hours lead to his book, The Steal, depicting them as liars and calling them “trumpanzees”.
Leah thanked him and said the book made them national figures advancing their cause.
She has gotten no help from the GOP. The Delco Republican Executive Committee was part an initial lawsuit that reached Commonwealth Court but was kicked off after not responding to any filing after the initial complaint.
Beating they System
Greg noted that the corporate two party system manipulates people against each other for their own interests. A Massachusetts native, he says many of his friends and family remain Democrat while also remaining his friends and family.
Greg said voting is extremely important, and people must not become discouraged.
“If you don’t vote, we can’t find those 70,000 ballots. If you don’t vote we can’t see your signature,” he said. “Trust me, this is a painful process but one day soon we are going to get our day in court and we are going to see your signature on the mail-in ballot or we are going to see where your vote where you signed in the blue book when you came in . . . and we are going to be able go in and say we can prove that vote you counted for Joel was not his vote.”
He said that a reason officials were curating a lot of votes was that they were counting people who didn’t vote and they had to get them out of the data base so there wouldn’t be evidence of those people voting .
“If you don’t vote, you’ve given into the system,” he said. “. . . We need you to vote. We need citizens to engage in their government. They have to engage. They have to vote.”
Good People Exist
Greg further noted that not everyone is corrupt and that there are good people in the system.
“Everybody thinks that everyone in the FBI is corrupt. Nobody joins the FBI to be a bad guy,” he says. “. . . There are good people in the FBI. There are judges out there that love the law and one day we are going to get in front of them. We are going to get in front of good special agents in the FBI. There are good people out there and if you believe that as I do and as a God-fearing person I know there are good people out there and they just have to speak.”
He said it is a small minority that is causing the havoc.
“What Leah and I are trying to do is to for people is to give them courage. Say stand up, look what happened, I’m still here. I haven’t been hung from a tree, shot in the chest with my hands tied behind my back with a suicide note stuck to my forehead,” he said.
He said all have to fight this out even if it means going into court and embarrassing yourself.
“I will stand on the Empire State Building in a tutu with a clown hat on my head if that’s what it takes,” he said.
“If we don’t do this our children will go through an even greater hell,” he said.
