Mike Lindau.
He is the greatest.
The MyPillow guy.
Mike Lindau.
And he's been with us right from the beginning.
Good evening.
I am Rick Weibel, and I am in for Mike Lindell.
Thank you, Mike Lindell, for letting me have this last-minute opportunity to fill in for you.
These are some pretty big shoes to fill in.
There's a lot of breaking news happening here in the Upper Midwest and across the United States.
First, I do kind of want to give you a little bit of an intro just so that you have a little bit of a background.
When I travel to many states and I drive along the highway and I see this poor sign out there, Uh, that Taco Bell was voted number one Mexican restaurant in that community.
Uh, it's as if I hear from election officials that they are the gold standard, uh, for elections.
And I hear tonight, we are going to show you some of the dystopian things that we have seen in the upper Midwest, and you are definitely going to want to take action.
And remember.
Transparency is the inoculation to all conspiracy theories.
It is so important that we take control of our elections and that we understand how they work.
And those election officials should be wanting to work with you to basically create that transparency within the elections themselves.
Now, a couple of things that I do want to make sure that we all are brought up to speed on is kind of the format.
So before the election, there are a lot of things that we need to make sure that we're doing.
Number one, we want to make sure that we are registered to vote.
We want to make sure that we're validating the voter rolls.
We also want to make sure that we have teams reviewing the daily absentee data.
We also want to make sure that you candidates, when you are sending out mailers, that anything that bounces back and that you're able to validate within the voter roll, so that's evidence that you may need to challenge an absentee ballot later.
Tonight we're going to talk about guarding the ballots out of Minnesota.
This is a role that candidates can take.
This is a special statute in Minnesota that we'll be talking about and you'll want to dig to find out if it's in your statutes within your state.
Then activists, we're going to be talking about their role in regards to the absentee ballot, having proper oversight, the processing and counting of those ballots.
Then, of course, there's drop boxes.
But then the other thing that we're going to talk about out of Wyoming is making sure that the test for the logic and accuracy tests of the voting equipment is actually working and accurate.
Then of course, as we look through the election process, we want to make sure that during the election, we're getting people out to vote.
We're volunteering to be election judges, poll challengers, poll watchers, and we're documenting incidents and reporting those properly.
Then after the election, we want to make sure that we're part of that cabin scene board, the post-election audits, and then also making sure that we are ready for the election challenges.
So now when we look at what's happening in Minnesota, I'm going to skip ahead.
We're hoping to have another guest come in, but we are going to jump in and actually talk with Jeremy Munson out of Minnesota because there is a kind of Oh, since we have Susan, I'm going to go back to Susan here because we have Susan Sjogren-Smith from the Royce White campaign.
And it appears that the Royce White campaign is actually taking action.
And we're going to show the website here real quickly, which is they have announced on their website, guarding the ballot.
And so they want to preserve the liberty of everyone's vote within the state of Minnesota.
They have actually served notice and you can actually find that letter on their website of what they have sent Secretary Simon.
And so if Susan is available, let's talk to her about kind of the next steps and where the Royce White campaign is going.
Perfect.
Are you able to hear me?
Yes, we can.
Perfect.
Hi.
So, Royce White is the statewide candidate for the United States Senate going against Amy Klobuchar, and he has really picked up this torch, really, lighting the way to secure our elections.
So, we know in Minnesota and the elections in 2020 and 2022, There was a pretty serious issue with a discrepancy between the reported votes coming out of the absentee ballot boards and the actual voter histories that could be matched up even after we certified our election.
And Rick, you can talk more about this if you want later, but because you have the databases, there were about 700,000 More votes reported than could be matched to voter histories after the certification of our elections.
And in 2022, it was about 260,000, a discrepancy of 260,000 votes between reported by the ballot boards and the three-week database after the elections.
So we have a lot of questions.
Our law requires that every Every ballot received by a ballot board must be immediately recorded in a voter history.
It's immediate.
The word is immediate.
We have a plain language ruling.
So we know that it's really critical that there should be a coordination.
These things should equal each other, that the voters have the right to know.
So Minnesota, after the Norm Coleman election in 2008, we, like a lot of states, established ballot boards.
And our elections, which used to happen on an election day, now run over 46 days.
And so the one thing that is true is that all election laws apply to all elections in Minnesota, unless there is a statute that excludes that application of the law.
So we just have to understand that because Minnesota chose to expand its elections from one day to 46 days, That the laws have to be looked at, right?
We as citizens, any person can read the plain language of the law and see.
You don't have to be a lawyer to know this.
It's just right there in the words.
And so guarding the ballots is a statute that's been around.
I don't know, Rick, if you have the statute, if you want to put it up for people to see.
It's 209.05, guarding the ballots.
And again, any person can read this law and understand that in any election,
so the word in is important there because it means in an election,
doesn't say after the election, it says in it, upon demand made of the custodian of the ballots
and upon notice to the opponent, a candidate may keep a continuous visual guard
over the ballots until the expiration of the time for instituting contests.
And then if they do contest it, so you get to guard the ballots until the time to institute a contest happens, and then if you do decide to contest the election, if a candidate decides to contest the election, then they get to continue to keep that guard over the ballot throughout that time period of the contest.
So Royce has sent that letter to the Secretary of State and we are beginning the process of working with other candidates in Minnesota.
Royce is very clear in the letters that he sent that were online that this is not about Royce White This is about the clamor for justice across Minnesota by voters who absolutely want their absentee ballot boards to follow the law and to protect the integrity of the elections.
And that means that we want Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Libertarians, every candidate to join with Royce in saying we need to bring our community back together.
We need to bring people together again, communities that used to count ballots together and now they've divided the people from the ballots and they do it all behind closed doors and nobody knows what's going on at the ballot boards.
And so we want everybody to come together, work together, to protect the integrity so that when all is said and done, everybody knows after 46 days exactly how many ballots showed up at the absentee ballot boards, how many were accepted, how many were rejected, so that when there's a reported total on election night, everybody will know that's right.
That's the number.
We don't have to fight about it.
And we're not going to say the next day, wait a minute, that's like 500,000 more than we know about.
Right?
Because that should never happen again in the state of Minnesota.
And we certainly know they're aware of our concerns because there was litigation filed previously that the courts threw out for technical reasons, despite the evidence.
So we just know this is a critical problem and we want everybody to trust our election.
So Does that make sense?
Great job.
And it's about time that a candidate stands up in Minnesota with this statute that appears to have been implemented back in the 60s.
Is that correct?
Yep.
Right.
This law has been around.
It's only been used a few times.
Generally, it is used after the fact.
One of the things that voters say again and again and again is that it has to apply for the whole election because if you can only guard the ballots after Bad information has been provided or ballots have been included that shouldn't be.
You're just guarding a bad set of ballots.
So it just doesn't make sense that you can't guard it protectively because otherwise you're guarding a lie.
And no one wants to guard a lie, right?
We only want to guard the truth.
So let's get it done on the front end and work together so that we all can trust the results, trust the elections, and hopefully we won't have contests because it'll all be good.
So where can people find out more?
Should they visit a website?
Yep, they can go.
I think you had it up to guard the ballots.
We're going to be adding information over the next week, pretty regularly, and we'll be adding the other additional correspondence that's going to be going out from Royce.
He's going to be sending letters out to all the candidates.
then he's also gonna be following up to Secretary of State Simon with his response
to the letter that Secretary of State Simon read, because Royce obviously has some opinions
about the information already sent to him from the Secretary of State.
And the real question is, why would anybody not want the people
to be able to watch the process, right?
That is, how could anybody interpret this statute, this amazing statute that keeps the people connected,
to say that the people can't be a part of this process?
It's a transparent process.
It's supposed to be transparent.
Elections are supposed to be transparent.
So anyway, so the letters will all be on.
Go ahead.
Yeah, it's really interesting that I see here in the Secretary of State's letter that they're trying to say that you can guard the ballots after they've been tabulated.
That does not comply with the law, with the plain language as you put out there.
And it's interesting how they're already forecasting while you consider whether to pursue an election contest.
That's kind of bold of them to say that they are Saying that your campaign is considering an election contest when you are looking at trying to protect the front end.
So it seems like they're trying to cast a vision where one was not stated by the Royce White campaign at all.
So that's very interesting that they are basically setting the table in anticipation of an election contest.
And it sounds like your campaign may need to Have further communication with the Secretary of State's office and I think you'll probably need to have a lot of the voters in Minnesota as they sign up on your RoyceWhite.us website.
I believe that's the site, right?
There's a place where people can volunteer.
We'll also be having links by congressional district.
And then once they get to the congressional district, they'll be able to find their county so that they'll be able to sign up and indicate which county they live in.
And that should be, I think by Monday, we're gonna have to be prepared for a lot of responses, right?
So we're gonna have a system set up hopefully by Monday for us to categorize down to the county level.
But yeah, our goal is clearly we want to avoid litigation.
We don't want there to be a contest.
We want the system to prove that it's worked the whole way through, that the laws are followed from beginning to end.
And if that happens, if the laws are followed, if the people can see that the laws were followed, there shouldn't be a need for election contest, right?
That's the goal.
The goal is let's do it together.
Let's do it right.
And let's come together to kind of heal some of these wounds that were created in the past.
Yeah, there seems to be a cornucopia of issues with Minnesota election laws, and it's really nice to see a statewide candidate that is running for national office actually step up to the plate and look at their local election laws and actually understand how the rules of the game are actually set forth.
And I think that's kind of a warning message to all candidates, no matter what state you are running in, is that you need to pay special detail To the election laws within the office that you're running for, because you may need to understand where the evidence is in order to be able to have a successful contest if you actually find that there's an issue.
But really, it shouldn't be about building the evidence.
It should be about compliance with the law when we are running the elections.
Because the best way to establish trust, of course, is by being transparent throughout the entire process and having And I guess when I look at so many state laws that are out there and I see the term, the count shall be public, that means that the public has oversight of the elections by its very nature when we look at the liberal construction of election laws and the way that statutes are written out there.
Can I make a comment about that?
Please.
I think it's interesting, when the laws were passed, I mean, I think we all have watched TV shows of, you know, votes in churches in the 1800s, where the whole community would come and they'd count the ballots together.
Minnesota's Constitution requires paper ballots.
It's what it says.
Again, it's plain language.
You don't have to be a lawyer to understand these laws.
And what's interesting is that when it says the count shall be public, that goes back to literally people watching the ballots be counted and being able to observe the process.
Average people watching.
Now they want us to believe that counting the ballots, that public count, is watching somebody push a button on a machine and that that somehow proves That it's correct.
Right?
Well, I'm actually glad you brought that up because you just literally transitioned it to exactly where I want to go.
And you and I have talked about this before, where it is actually very interesting.
Here's the Royce White website.
Make sure you go there and learn more about the Uh, ballot guard situation.
But what's interesting is that it appears that Secretary Simon and you can't make this up.
Uh, so the Secretary of State of Minnesota is Steve Simon.
And so it literally he is responsible for the administration guidelines.
So the administrative rules.
And what's interesting is, um, I'm going to show something here that you literally can't make this up.
And it's kind of a, um, kind of a conflict out there in the rules that he lays out there.
And in the administrative guide, he literally says during the absentee process that the processing of ballots is not open to the public.
For the opening and processing of the absentee ballots.
Then further down, he's literally instructing them that these ballots should be inserted into the tabulator.
So this is the current 2022 absentee voting administration guide to all of the clerks out there.
And there is not an update for 2024.
And here we are.
And however, we know what a tabulator does.
It counts.
votes. And in Minnesota, when we look at those statutes specifically, it says that the counting
of the ballots cannot happen until after the polls close.
So this is kind of a weird little dichotomy because if we read the letter directed by Steve
Simon to your campaign, it literally says that they can only be present during the
tabulation or after the tabulation. So does that mean that you get to show up after the absentee
pre-event?
That's just ridiculous of every single day.
And this conflict, I'm really hoping that more candidates, I hope the MNGOP will start looking at some of these things and especially for the RNC.
Because I truly believe that Minnesota really is in play and especially with the grassroots that seems to be forming in Minnesota and now with what your campaign is proposing with guarding of the ballots.
I think this is a game changer because we have heard so many times in Minnesota that people are afraid to vote because they feel like their vote is not going to count.
And so this is really interesting that the Rice White campaign is taking one of those first major steps to ensure that everybody And so, kudos to the Royce White campaign.
And now I want to transition to another guest from Minnesota, where this is specifically related, where this kind of transitions into this whole absentee period, Jeremy Munson.
There is something that you discovered in reviewing the law in a conflict with the revisor's office.
Correct, Jeremy?
Yeah, I serve on a board of the Legislative Evaluation Assembly in Minnesota.
It's a group that researches and scores bills, scores legislators' votes.
And one of the board members brought up this issue where a change to Minnesota election law that passed this year, the effective date, which is typically, you know, August or January 1st, was listed as January 1st of 2024.
But it also said that it could wait until the revisor certifies some results before this would go into effect.
It was a very strange effective date and I reached out to some friends of mine that are serving in the Minnesota Senate and they've never seen this before.
The Minnesota Voter Alliance has been in communication with the Secretary of State questioning when this is supposed to go into effect and will it go into effect this year.
And the response from Steve Simon was that it won't be in effect until perhaps 2026.
Wait a minute, but there's also elections in 2025 as well, because Minnesota has a lot of elections in the March period for cities and townships, and then there's school board elections as well, generally in the fall in Minnesota during the odd years.
So why would they wait a couple of years, I guess, between Friends?
No, it's frustrating.
As a former legislator, I served three terms in the Minnesota legislature.
The U.S.
Constitution specifies that the state legislatures are the ones that set the time, place, and manner of elections.
You shouldn't let the executive branch set their own rules.
And by the legislature including this, and of course Minnesota, just for those listening, we're under complete Democrat control.
They control the House, the Senate, and the Governor.
Uh, the governor's mansion.
So, um, they, they're, they're really kind of running a rampant changing rules in this state.
We already have very lax voter laws in Minnesota, but, um, but they basically punted this to the secretary of state to let him implement this as how he sees fit and when he wants to, um, or the administration and the executive branch should not be overseeing the rules that govern how they run elections.
So is this statute, the one that you're referring to, is that 203B.30?
Is that the statute?
Yes.
Okay, so luckily I did my homework and I have that pulled up here.
And that one basically says the early voting officials must remove and secure the ballots cast during the early voting period because Minnesota just created an early voting period in the last legislative session to where they expanded in-person voting.
I want to say the Monday, Tuesday before the election, and then the Saturday, Sunday before the election.
And so they've really expanded it.
And it says here the absentee ballot board must count the ballots after the polls have closed on election day.
Wait a minute.
Doesn't that seem to just solidify exactly what I just said as a conflict between the manual that is from 2022 and this new law that is supposed to be in effect as of January 1, 2024, but then we find in other statutes in Minnesota when it talks about the absentee ballot board that they're supposed to Uh, tabulate the ballots after the polls close.
So now you have in two places regarding the absentee ballot board that, well, I would say the early voting and now absentee ballot board that say the counting of the ballots should be after the polls close.
And in the third one, which is the traditional in-person voting, which says the counting of the ballots shall be after the polls close.
Right.
That's really frustrating.
And look, I live in rural Minnesota.
And in 2002, the township board voted to eliminate our in-person polling station.
So for over 20 years, I don't have a place to vote on Election Day.
All of my voting has been done by mail only.
I get a ballot delivered like 45 days before every election.
But the integrity of the election is just completely gone, because they're mailing out ballots to the last known address basically indefinitely.
Now that's been expanded enormously in Minnesota, so over half of our ballots cast are by mail.
And those ballots are sitting there at the election office, you know, They're being opened earlier now.
They're being scanned earlier now.
People are voting in person earlier now.
And we don't have the election judges and the bipartisan oversight in watching those ballots be opened.
All we can do is have election judges there on election day.
And it's very frustrating for voters.
Election integrity is so important because it restores people's faith in elections and therefore people's faith in government.
And what we witnessed in the 2020 election, so many of these reports and videos went viral and people are really concerned about it.
We want more election integrity.
And so we shouldn't, you know, watching the Democrats just remove what little election integrity we have left is very frustrating for voters.
Yep, that's absolutely right.
And I really want to thank you for your service in the legislature and also throughout the GOP over the years that we've crossed paths when I used to follow candidates in statewide races and help them out.
But you're absolutely right.
And so there was also a change within the Minnesota, where more and more jurisdictions, because of this expansion of in-person early voting, they have basically defaulted.
We don't have enough resources, enough staff to basically cover that, that they are opting for the mail-out.
And one of the things that we've observed, looking at the data in Minnesota, is that as more precincts go towards mail-out balloting, the actual turnout is cratering.
And that seems to be hurting more of the conservative districts.
As you point out, people are not having faith in that.
And then also with these stories that we see out there directly from the U.S.
Postal Service earlier this year that said they're not sure if they're going to be able to handle the volume of mail this year during the election.
And so those of you in mail-out districts and are considering early voting, please vote in person at the courthouse so that you can maintain chain of custody and not have any of these suspicious activities happen to your ballot.
It is your vote and it is your responsibility to protect it because we can't count on others to protect it, especially in Minnesota with what's happening and just the erosion of the election laws.
And I'm sorry, but Simon Says is complete garbage.
That is not a game.
This is our election laws.
And I really am proud that you guys have stepped up for campaigns and especially with your history as a legislator and as a party activist.
Still fighting for election integrity.
So thank you, Jeremy.
It is great to talk with you and see you again.
Yeah, thanks for having me on.
Yep, thank you so much.
So, as we go in, we see the next step.
And I have a special guest with me.
Her name is Jill Kaufman.
But before we get into that, let me actually give you a little bit of an education here on kind of the different bout styles that are out there.
As we get into logic and accuracy tests, it's really important to set the table.
There are basically two types of bouts that are out there.
There's the one that is a standard ballot that we see on the right hand side of the screen, which is all the little pretty little ovals that we would fill in.
And then there's the express vote ballot that comes from the touch screens, or in some states, they use those for people with disabilities to be able to use the touch screen or use the sip and puff or a joystick or anything else.
That creates barcodes across the top.
And so filled in ovals versus barcodes are two different ballot styles, and those need to be tested differently.
And I will eventually be kind of updating the Midwest Swamp Watch website and US case to kind of give a better education on this.
Right now, this is a format for Wyoming.
But also when you have different partisans out there, Like if you're in a primary, you have a Democrat ballot, a Republican ballot, and then you might have a nonpartisan ballot.
Those are three different styles that have to be tested separately.
And then when we get into the express vote, that's kind of an all-in-one style because it's just reading the barcodes, but we need to make sure that Every single ballot position is tested.
And so just as a quick summary, when I started looking at different states across the country to see how well they are doing, they're failing.
And what's sad is that these machines have been out there since 2005, these standards, and we're still failing going into the 2024 election.
And so here we can see at the top that they never tested the blank sheets.
And so there's zero.
Then we see that all three of these candidates have the same number of votes.
And so you wouldn't know if any of those votes were flipped at all.
And by the way, just one vote is not robust enough for actual testing.
Then here on this next one, here we see that two candidates have one vote, and then we see another candidate has no vote.
So it was never tested whatsoever for that person.
And then of course we see that the overvotes weren't even tested at all in this scenario.
Then when we go over to Wisconsin, we see from a DS200 tape here that in that first
race here in the lower left-hand corner, three candidates, including right-hand, all have
two votes selected for them.
So again, we don't know if any of those were flipped.
Then what's great is in these next two races that are yes-no, both of them have two votes.
So the yes and no were not separately ascertained as to whether or not those votes could be flipped or not.
And so when we create this type of suspicion, and this is a work product that we're getting out of officials, this just isn't good.
Then kind of teeing up, Uh, what happened in Wyoming?
And here we see three candidates with one vote.
You wouldn't know if any of those were flipped.
And then you have three candidates or three positions with no vote.
So not even tested at all.
And this is just where it gets completely gross.
And so I want to bring, uh, Joe Kaufman, uh, into the conversation here and let's kind of talk about, uh, what happened here in, uh, Wyoming.
And what was great is that they actually have a pretty good Secretary of State, Chuck Gray, which you and I spoke to Chuck Gray before the election back in June, and we raised some concerns about the equipment.
But this conversation is going to focus in on the actual administration of the equipment and the testing of it.
And so when we spoke with the Secretary of State, we raised our concerns And luckily, he sent a letter, right?
Oh, she might be muted.
Unmute, sorry.
Anyway, thank you for having me on.
And yes, we did chat with our Secretary of State and he listened, which was absolutely fabulous.
And then he sent a letter to the clerks to remind them of the statutes and their responsibilities on how to do these tests.
And I was very, very excited that he did that.
Unfortunately, we haven't seen much of information, uh, retention from the clerks because they tended to not pass on a lot of their tests.
So, um, again, I'm glad Chuck Gray sent out and, and, and warned them ahead of time.
Yeah.
And what was interesting about the letter too, is he literally reiterates the statute, uh, and one of the requirements within the statute.
And then on top of it, he offers to help to review those test decks.
And the results were, I'm going to show a slide here.
Sorry, Apollo.
And this is where Apollo is just an absolute professional here.
And so the next slide shows us where they actually scored and how did they do?
They all failed except for one county, and I was really excited in that letter that if they had any question on how to do test decks, the Secretary of State even encouraged them to send him copies of their test decks so that he could evaluate them, which I was pretty excited about.
But unfortunately, they all failed on the first time except one county.
And then he came through and said, okay, we had a 14-day cutoff period prior to the election and unfortunately none of them passed except for the one.
He did send out another letter after the fact to help them come along and said, okay, let's retest And again, following the statute and so on and so forth.
So he was really trying to get response with those clerks to pay attention to our statutes.
I mean, this is what's in law.
So wait a minute.
We actually have evidence now in the United States that a complete state failed.
Absolutely, we do.
And not only once, even on the the secondary tests and sometimes the third test, they all failed so far of the information that we've gotten in.
And it's pretty devastating to me and a lot of people that I've been chatting with because we used to believe in our elections and that they were At least trying.
And we're finding out, nope, they're doing the most minimal thing amount of numbers and the test deck is just failing miserably and it's very sad.
So our machines are not safe.
So the letter went out for retesting on August 12th, and the election was August 20th.
And one of the breaking news ones that I'm going to present up here shows how bad this is.
And so this one was done, we can see at the bottom there, on the 13th.
Every single one of those red arrows is a violation of your state law.
Yes.
It absolutely is, and when I was looking, and I just got that today, and I didn't think it could get any worse until I got this one.
Just devastated by almost everything was done incorrectly.
Nothing was really tested correctly at all.
Couldn't tell whether there'd be flip votes or whatever.
The minimum, according to the statute, they didn't do that as well.
Yeah, so the minimum is one.
But the problem is that you have two ballot styles.
So between the standard ballot and an express vote ballot, the minimum number that we should see there would be two.
Two.
Absolutely.
And there's not there.
So I have...
I followed up with some of these clerks that have sent me these test decks through the public request procedure and I asked them about how they test these and some of them say they only test one express vote or one situation like this and they try to do the minimum and I'm just kind of like sitting back saying, oh my goodness, this is not acceptable at all.
And I have, we have shared, you and I, Rick, have sat down with our Secretary of State and we have shared with him the problem with these test decks.
We actually had a Zoom call, a couple hours Zoom call, with some of the targeted clerks and you sat down and actually walked through to show them how to do test decks prior to the selection.
One of them paid attention, at least for the most part, and the other ones did not.
The sad thing is the one that paid attention didn't share with the rest of the Clerks' Association, so they didn't pass at all.
It's just horrifying, some of the things that are going on.
So the one that attended the event that I came out in June was the head of the Clerks' Association, correct?
Yes, it was.
Uh-huh.
He's the head of the Wyoming Clerks' Association, yes.
I just want to make sure of that.
And then the other beautiful thing here is if we look at Goshen, which I actually tested a little bit later, we can actually see, as I kind of built out a little bit of a training guide that I just sent you and the party for review, and then eventually it'll go up to Wyoming because it's based upon your statutes here.
And we can see, I've got kind of like the seven things that they need to look for.
Number one, is it 14 days before the election here?
We know that the election dated the 20th and there it is that it was tested on the 15th.
And so the deadline would have been a six.
So that gets a red.
Then we see that the standard ballots are tested and the express vote cards are tested.
And so both of those end up being green.
We see that count there.
This is from a DS 200.
Then we go down and we look at the number of votes and we see that those are all valid.
They're different and they're different numbers.
That's good.
But then we get down to over votes and they didn't test it.
And so that's where the status of number seven goes into error, and they should not be certifying this.
And then when we go further down into their tape, we see, okay, we got some valid votes here.
We've got different numbers.
Now remember, this is a retest, but again, they didn't do the overvotes.
And we see that here with these three races, but in the overall status of these Ballots we see here that only one style was tested because of that one vote there at the very beginning shows us that there's not two different ballot styles.
And so it is clear.
That this test deck should not be certified and it should not be signed by the official because on the certificate that they sign directly that they submit to the Secretary of State, which is an official document, that certificate lists three ballot types.
The express vote, which is a barcode.
The ballot on demand means they print it on site.
There's that little printer that they would have.
And then also printed by printer, and that is in capital within the certificate that they sign, which means that it's pre-printed by the vendor.
So these are the ones that they order ahead of time.
And so that means that if they're doing the ballot on demand printing, that means that a minimum number for a candidate would actually be three.
Because you have the express vote.
Yep.
And so this is something that is very clear because they're signing it and they're attesting to this.
And so I think this is a real problem.
And so when we look at the status of your state now, this is the second try of the compliance.
Now we have some that are still unknown, but they're still failing.
And this is an alarm for the rest of the United States that we literally have to get this under control because the reality is, in essence, using the ES&S puts the clerks at risk of six felonies in Wyoming right out of the gate in one statute.
And that statute is 22-11-104.
Uh, out there.
So what's really sad is it goes even further that your statutes, when any, any election official violates the, uh, the law, it's a felony and they're subject for removal.
And so we already see publicly that your GOP has taken action against one of the counties.
It's going to be interesting to see where that goes because they're not done in that process.
But you've got to be pretty proud of the grassroots within your state and your state party to actually file litigation so that the public can actually see what's going on here.
Yes, we are very, very proud of our local statewide GOP, along with our countywide GOPs, because quite a few of them there are behind our statewide.
We had Uh, what you call a quarterly meeting of the of the Wyoming State GOP this last Saturday.
And I had, I guess, talked with Frank a few times, and he had invited me and invited you in mostly to speak and present this election information to him.
I am just so ecstatic that he allowed us to do that.
And with that, you got to share with probably over a hundred and some people in that room, and you got to share the details of what's going on in our counties.
The GOP and their attorney have just been doing a phenomenal job of trying to protect everyone's vote, and that is so critical.
They have stepped up.
They have even offered Well, I guess it comes through that when they were designating some funds to other things, they said if there was any funds left over, they would apply it to any type of litigation that the counties or someone would need to fight for this so that we can get our counties cleaned up.
So my hat's off to our Wyoming GOP.
And I don't know, I've never seen any other situation where A GOP or a Democratic committee and state committee had invited anyone in, so my hat's off to you, Rick, for presenting in front of them.
You did an excellent job and very thorough, and I've had nothing but fabulous comments and wanting more information.
So much So many people are waking up now, and I'm grateful to you, and I'm very grateful to our chair, Frank E. Thorne, and to Brian Schuck, our attorney.
So thank you, all of you.
Well, thank you, guys.
Thank you.
Thank you, guys.
It was great to be out there with all of you over the weekend.
And to see so many great patriots out there.
Your party is doing things the right way.
And I think they were shocked at my presentation where I alerted them that because they're violating their own state statutes and there are many issues with the way that you are conducting the elections and some of the There are questions surrounding the machine's security with the antivirus and even the questions of trying to get the antivirus updated and it more secure and the resistance of ES&S and then even some of the processes that we see of the duplicator and the way that they are setting up the elections off of the internet, downloading the files and then copying that through the duplicator that is not tested and well vetted.
And then there's mistakes that can be made along the way that I think should be shored up to protect our elections.
And then this oversight with the test decks, it puts your state at risk.
And I really, and I said this in front of everybody.
And so it's out there in the public where I said, look, looking at what happened in 2005 with Jerry Nadler contesting the Ohio certification from the 2004 election, and Congress considered this for two and a half hours.
And then had a vote on it.
But what was shocking is that there were so many people that didn't decide yay or nay, but were undecided and couldn't pick one side or the other.
There was over 100 people there.
And so you have in a stronger case, if you keep doing the same thing, Going into the general election of being decertified.
So this is why it's so important.
I'm so proud of the GOP of Wyoming to step up and take this seriously and understand the risk to make sure that they're protecting everybody's vote.
And I was really shocked.
I was really shocked at the depth of Marty and the presentation that she gave before me, where she is out there ringing the bell to say we need bipartisan oversight of our elections.
The very fact that your volunteers and poll watchers are being treated with disrespect, where they're even told to bring your own chair.
That's disgusting.
I've heard the same echoes in Minnesota and other states.
And I'm sorry, but aren't we humans?
Shouldn't we have an inviting environment for the public to see this beautiful thing that we have in our constitutional republic?
To see how government can change peacefully in one beautiful day where the federal level can change the state, the county, the city, and the township.
Right.
We're supposed to be proud of that.
Isn't that what this is about? Is that peaceful transition?
And we should be proud that we have this system and do to protect it.
Right.
So let's be proud of that.
And the thing that we have found out through this, and I know our GOP also experiences as well,
is the very fight we have to do to get these public records.
We're finding that some of them say they're not available, then all of a sudden they're available, and then they're not available for 30 days, and now I have some that are past the 30-day regulation, and so now we're committing other I don't know if they're felonies, but I'm certainly going to look into it because they're past their 30 days on their public request.
So I know GOP worked really, really hard to get the information and the rest of us and throughout the counties, and we have such great people throughout these counties that are just willing to step up and get the information from their clerk.
And it's just amazing on how it has been a fight the whole time.
And that should not be.
And it always makes you want to go, why are we fighting this?
And why are we trying to not come forward with information?
Makes you want to think they're trying to be in a cover-up mode?
I don't know.
I can't see the documents yet on some of them, so don't have an answer for you.
But we need to see these documents.
And I'm so very proud of our GOP here in Wyoming for stepping up and for you to come and share with them.
So thank you, Rick, from the bottom of my heart.
Well, thank you.
And I can't wait to come out again.
It sounds like there's going to be at least two more trips coming up to Wyoming.
We are blessed.
Yep, you and Richard and Elena and so many other great patriots out there that have hosted and encouraged me and have really brought me up to speed as to the politics in Wyoming.
The other thing, too, is that as you've been making these requests, you have started the investigation on the 2020 and 2022 elections, both the primary and general elections.
So far, the results are No, there's very few that we've gotten back.
Yeah, in 2022, we've gotten five or six, I can't remember exactly which, and they have all failed.
And then in 2020 as well, they have failed as well.
So it's a historical repetition of what their Doing on our test decks and certifying these machines and it's all it's all fakery.
I mean, it's just proof in the test decks that they're not actually verifying whether there's quality in our elections and counting ballots.
So it's pretty sad.
Perfect, perfect.
And I just, again, thank you, Wyoming.
You've taught me so much.
It feels like another home state for me.
Minnesota's in my heart.
You know, I'm physically in South Dakota, and now a little bit of that free spirit of Wyoming is Right next to my heart there and part of my soul now.
Some of the resources I want to make sure that people are able to go out and see.
I will be updating both Midwest Swamp Watch and U.S.
Case over time, but if you're looking for resources, I have the antivirus research out there from January 1st, 2022 through July 8th, 2024 showing That there really isn't a vendor that has really kept our election systems up to date.
ES&S did it for 6060, but that was in June of 2022.
And it even took Wyoming a year to implement that for security as we went in and audited.
There's some information about ES&S modems, how to detect them.
There's also hand count demonstrations and materials there at uscase.org.
And there's also kind of the test docs.
We're going to be expanding that to include some of the research that we've discovered in Minnesota, Wisconsin, South Dakota, and Miami, so that you can kind of see a comparison.
And also, we want to encourage people to sign up at Cause of America.
Another breaking news piece, and I'm hoping Apollo will have this ready.
I am in the upcoming movie that is called Vindicating Trump.
Uh, that will be appearing in theaters on September 27th.
I hope you do see that.
And I hope all of you who are part of a campaign, uh, if you're part of a party, make sure you are ready, uh, to have Volunteers flood you with support because it is going to be important.
People are going to have a lot of questions about the elections, and I hope today's framework will kind of lay that out.
So Apollo, if you want to go ahead and show that trailer, that would be great.
Somebody has to help this country, and if they don't, the country and the world are in big trouble.
Someone's gotta overturn the tables in the temple.
Trump jumping into the presidential race.
She's a bit worried.
Of the apprentice guy?
You know the feeling of power?
Could you handle it or would it devour?
They fear that power.
You didn't do an insurrection.
Had you called for one, there would have been one.
And there would be one if you called for one now.
I'm not sure I want that power.
I want the power just to make the country better.
America first!
And that scares them.
A lot about Donald Trump scares them.
Let's look at everything.
Campaign, his family.
Let's get foreign eyes on him.
We have one target.
You know who he is.
Going after their companies, their families.
That is a dictator.
It's a very dangerous time for our country.
The goal is to put him in jail because they're so afraid of his voice.
I am your voice!
We'll bury him so deep in legal, it'll bankrupt him.
Broke, got him.
In jail right before the election.
Sorry for being that guy, but isn't that election interference?
There is actually going to be a lot of evidence in this movie.
I helped talk about the 10,000 and 5,000 ballots that we were able to purchase.
We also showed them how belts could be injected and we actually used some of the belts that I had as props for that movie to be able to help Dinesh D'Souza and their staff is absolutely amazing.
The actors were great to meet down there.
We are excited to be a small portion of this movie and I do want to thank all of the fighters out there throughout the grassroots As I've gotten to meet so many of you, you have reinstilled my belief in this country, and especially in Christ, because we're just asking for equal weights and measures when it comes to our elections.
And it is so important that we come through this with a patient Christian heart to be able to make sure that we have Good, fair, honest elections.
Stay tuned.
Here at the Lindell Report, Cause of America, Frank Speech, Midwest Swamp Watch, uscase.org.
And I absolutely want to thank all of you out there for watching here tonight.
Hopefully this showed you some of the great things that the activists are doing in multiple states.
And I will continue reaching out and helping out so many other states, and I will get to those updates the next time I am able to host.
And again, thank you, Mike.
Stay awesome, everybody.
And make sure you get everybody out there to vote, and make sure you are part of the solution, and don't be a problem.
