So... doubtless this is going on all over the country, probably similar shenanigans happening in other digital voting programs. It's being manipulated from the inside, by whom? And what can we do to help?

Are you hearing of any movement to (at least temporarily decertify) the Knowink system (besides Bernegger's HAVA complaint). With a consequential redistricting election here in VA I believe there is a huge and unrecognized risk.

"They may believe the explanation due to lack of knowledge, but regardless, it is false."

Well said.

This is a key explanation for ALL THE FRAUD in the USA. All the social services fraud is premised on similar obfuscations; the smurfing of donations via ActBlue and WinRed, same.

Voter Rolls do not have the accuracy of your checking account or credit card. The public is offered multiple reasons why we should believe that Voter Rolls are accurate and always have been, but regardless, it is false. If you press said defenders, the excuses pile up: "we only run elections once a year, once every two years, ... - regardless, these excuses are false.

Similarly, Senator Chuck Schumer and others have stated that requiring Voter ID to vote is racist, but in fact both parties are against sunlight and transparency regarding the voter rolls. None of us should give up on the fact that the Voter Rolls have always been a root level problem, now known to be exploited by both parties, for decades. Some of the public may believe this lie, but regardless, it is false.

Kudos for "but regardless, it is false."

Thanks. It reminds me of scenes from old cowboy TV shows, where the bad guys make up ridiculous explanations that no one believes, but everyone accepts to avoid a confrontation.

It's called "gaslighting". They are masters at it.

"...makes direct human examination essentially unnecessary." to

"a raw file in the hands of a person with the motivation and presence of mind to actually read it."

Thank you! That says it all.

It is truly disgusting the money these people spend on this "campaign" nonsense and yet can't be bothered to read.

I've long believed poll pads are the linchpin of potential election manipulation. Always online, they track every real voter in real time - making it easy to identify gaps and insert phantom voters to tip the scales.

Praise God for Weston Martinez: he was in the right place at the right time, & possessed clear discernment and the connections to get the evidence where it needed to go. His efforts uncovered troubling poll pad data patterns that demand immediate scrutiny and reform.

Hopefully you can have a conversation about this with Dinesh D’Souza, whose film 𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐬 was in theaters and online a few years ago. He looks intrigued: https://x.com/ncfortwiter/status/2034069363368563037

“It was an accident, made possible by one state’s unusually aggressive transparency statute and the narrow window during which one person happened to look.”

Kinda like turning to look in another direction a millisecond before a speeding bullet pierces an ear instead of a skull. Or a lighting strike that instigates computer files…

Watched John Solomon with Steve Bannon this morning, as you said, “delicately” assembling the China off-ramp to be continued this week. With most eyes on the Iran demolition? Or SAVE Act? Or DHS funding? Is anybody watching?

Solomon characterizes it a ‘hack’ and says China sent fake driver licenses to the US in the summer of 2020 to companion fake absentee ballots. The Summer of 2020 is a long way after June of 2007 in NY. or Bexar Texas in 2026.

So far, I’m seeing this as misdirection, conflating the truth—yes, evidence of a China hack—to obfuscate what has been residing in our voter registration data base(s) since HAVA—put there by who?

I've long thought the biggest problem with our voting systems was nefarious domestic actors. However many foreign actors contributed to the current mess, I still feel that local bad guys are the main culprits. However, acknowledging that is difficult because of the disruptions it would cause.

The link to the John Solomon article for me, about the above, was from a paid ad. In other words, the message of the Chinese drivers licenses and ballots is not new news, the stories existed long ago. Now we are promoting the story with paid ads.

I had a conversation with Grok about whether JS is a deep state limited hangout. My issue with JS began with this event, summarized by Grok:

‘The episode of John Solomon Reports featuring former National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien, where he described the Nord Stream pipeline sabotage as "the kind of thing Putin would order" (implying Russia as the most likely culprit), aired in late September 2022—specifically around September 29 or 30, 2022.

‘This timing aligns with the explosions occurring on September 26, 2022, and the rapid emergence of early speculation in media interviews. The episode was promoted with the headline: "Ex-National Security adviser: Blowing up parts of Nord Stream pipeline, 'kind of thing Putin would order'." It appeared in podcast directories (e.g., referenced in archives like Amazon Music, Apple Podcasts, and Just the News listings) shortly after the incident, as part of Solomon's daily/weekly format covering breaking foreign policy and national security topics.’

A witty commenter at the time noted: Why blow up the pipes? Couldn’t Putin have just shut off the flow?

My apologies if I missed your explanation, but why were the records inserted (post election) in the first place? What is the (potential) motivation behind inserting records that could not affect the election results?

We have this added-to-rolls-dump happen in Colorado on a regular basis. Every 2 - 4 years, we see a spike in every county/precinct rolls PRIOR to the election. Then post election, they are removed. To my knowledge, we have not seen addition post election. The records added pre-election are the pool of mail-in, deceased etc that are manipulated at election time.

Great article - thanks for schooling me.

The temporary registrations, because that is what they amount to, can be used to generate ballots.

J Robert Burgoyne's avatar

Apologies for over-commenting, but this is a really important article, as is the comment above.

We should use the phrase: ballots, instead of votes, to drill into the public’s mind that the shenanigans we want to investigate BEGIN with voter rolls, and end with BALLOTS, and COUNTING of BALLOTS.

Also your phrase: “generate ballots” is much more descriptive of what to focus on.

Thanks again, this article has me thinking.

When you look at the cleaned-up voter registrations from the 25th, what do the look like? Can you see names or is it just the total number of check-ins? We know the names on from the 17th and 18th. Can we see the names on the cleaned up 25th version?

Andrew Paquette, PhD's avatar

The cleaned up version *looks like* what is probably the original correct record, restored after over-writing the fraudulent entries. It has name, address, etc.

Mark D Sutfin's avatar

As I understand it, this election was already over, counted, certified before the temp registrations were entered. Had they not been discovered, they would be there for future elections, is that correct?

Andrew Paquette, PhD's avatar

No. The records in question were inserted on the second day of early voting. There were almost 2 weeks left before the election was over.

Mark D Sutfin's avatar

Then it's a just-in-time voter roll pool for those paid to scam the system. thanks for clearing that up!

The real question: does Trump have the nuts to prohibit electronic voting in the midterms? I bet yes

You would be amazed at what polls actually serve it is certainly not the public nor law & order

Andrew, I had lunch with a friend yesterday and was trying to explain to her what happened in Bexar County and found myself unable to answer her questions. I am hoping you can tell the story for me where I am stumbling. I said something like:

A candidate in Bexar County, TX received a list of people who voted on one day of early voting and found that there were duplicates of voters created with fake IDs that had decimals added. The duplicates were created using a mathematical algorithm that showed evidence of being deliberately programmed. 735 real voters were used to create 4110 fake voters and then delete 4116 real voters. Then the fake duplicates were changed to real voters pulled from the County voter rolls. But these people didn't really vote. The program votes for them. Then someone with access to the county tabulators had to secretly go in and run physical ballots through the tabulators for the fake voters. So later when the candidate received a second version of who voted on that day the list looked normal.

Is this even close to what happened? I'm assuming TX is like CO where a person fills out an actual ballot and that ballot is run through a tabulator to count it. Does this mean that there are 4116 extra ballots in the tubs where the ballots are stored after going through the tabulator? I am confused on the physical reality based on the voter swaps. CO does not use poll pads.

Thanks for your help. I've been a poll watcher in CO many times and watched a couple recounts including Tina Peter's 2022 race for SOS in CO. They never hand count the ballots. They just run them through the tabulators a second time. The final recounts that I watched in my county were always 3 or 4 votes off from the original count.

I have been reading your substack posts for awhile. It makes me think there is probably fraud in every state. Is anyone with authority or influence who knows about your findings trying to do anything to stop this type of election fraud?

Gary Tonsager's avatar

It's almost like they knew what to look for. Martinez was there waiting for this to occur. The law, the chance he wouldn't win and the fact he is a voter integrity advocate. He was tipped off and it paid off. They go caught. Now what? I guess we'll have to wait and see.
