My Response to Local Media Stories

Response to Questions about Election Integrity

It seems that the local newspaper has been publishing articles that fail to present all the facts related to my views on securing our elections. To set the record straight:

1. Please go VOTE!

2. I am very thankful that Iowa protects our elections with voter ID, paper ballots and one ballot drop box per county. Voting is our most sacred duty as Americans and we should be proud of what we have in Iowa.

3. I do believe machines (electronic pollbooks and tabulators) are subject to manipulation and errors. I do NOT believe that all of our elections have been fraudulent. I especially do not want to wait for problems to occur before making improvements to ensure the accuracy of elections. EVERY vote should count every time.

4. Concerns about machine manipulation is not new and not partisan. Complaints were lobbied in 2016 by Hillary Clinton (D) and Stacey Abrams (D).

a. Kamala Harris (D) testifies they were hacked

5. While our vote tabulators are not connected to the internet, that doesn’t mean they can’t be. We use a combination of Dominion, ES&S and Unisyn equipment. Here’s a link to evidence in lawsuits in Antrim County, Michigan and Mesa County, Colorado proving machine manipulation. This is not a conspiracy theory and I want to ensure we don’t have these issues in Iowa. https://www.americasmom.net/mesa-forensic-reports https://www.depernolaw.com/dominion.html

6. Issues have occurred with election machines in 2022. In these two cases, the issues were found by chance.

a. Dekalb County, Georgia – https://trib247.com/articles/primary-voting-machine-malfunctions-reported-in-dekalb-county-georgia-2-810-new-votes

b. Cherokee County, Kansas - https://masistvucutcu.com/cherokee-county-kansas-election-results-reversed-after-vote-flip-discovered/

7. Dr. Douglas Frank is a proud math teacher, but that’s not all. https://irida.tv/politics/nobel-prize-nominated-scientist-dr-douglas-frank-phd-discusses-epidemiology-election-integrity-ep-58/
