AP Fact Checker Eviscerated

The fact checker skewed data to fit the media's skewed narrative

On January 24, 2021 I blogged about some of my team's work on election lawsuits.  That analysis determined that Trump's legal team and others who were fighting for election integrity prevailed in over two-thirds (15/22) cases. 

We were contacted by Politifact and the Associated Press (AP) about the information and explained that our work included all the lawsuits, not just those filed after the election and when those are counted, Trump and associates have done quite well.  

DEBUNKED: The Dem's Reflex Reaction to Evidence of Voter Fraud


Just hours after the video of cases of ballots being pulled from under a table in State Farm Arena and then being counted without supervision -- and before anyone in an official capacity provided an explanation -- Georgia state Senator Elena Parent cried "that's been debunked." 

Another Senator calmly responded, "This video is only few hours old.   Who debunked it?

Parent exhibited the reflex reaction of most Democrats when she was confronted with the evidence of fraud.  When next confronted that the video hadn't been debunked, she moved to the next reflex reaction.

Parent stated that Trump had lost 40 of 41 court cases because the courts didn't accept the evidence of fraud.

At the time neither statement was true -- and both remain untrue today.   

Vote Dumps Should Be Investigated



Numerous so-called fact-check sites have attempted to dismiss large vote spikes as human error or software glitches that were later corrected.  For example, the fact checkers dismissed the Michigan vote spike on the basis that a tweet said all the votes were for Biden.

As the table shows, the Michigan vote spike was not all for Biden, but nonetheless, the data shows an anomalous margin of 113,755 votes.  To put it another way, the precinct in question went 96% for Biden and 4% for Trump -- and that's a result that deserves red-flagged.

An analysis conducted by a team of volunteers (computer scientists, engineers, statisticians, and analysts) concluded that only a few corrections were made and the results of the famously large vote spikes in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin remain in the final vote tallies in those states.

While these spikes are not evidence of fraud or manipulation in and of themselves, they demand further investigation.

No evidence of fraud...say those who haven't looked

 

Krebs:  Deservedly fired for unsupported remarks about security of 2020 election

Fired former head of the DHS Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, Chris Krebs, claimed in a statement:

"There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised."

You can read the November 12, 2020 statement here.

What is missing from the statement is any evidence whatsoever to back up Krebs' claim or any real attempt to explain the data that shows votes that over 200,000 votes were switched from Trump to Biden in Pennsylvania.

While the statement dismisses the voter fraud claims as  "misinformation about the process of our elections," there has yet to be a state government official or local government official to address the discrepancies in the DATA.
