Democrat Blows The Whistle On Staggering Allegations of Systemic Ballot Harvesting in Black Neighborhoods

The former candidate for Orange County commissioner describes widespread vote trafficking operation in Orlando area, authorities see enough evidence to warrant criminal probe.This is treason. Why hasn’t anyone been arrested?

Just the News is reporting that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ new election crimes unit has recommended state police open a full criminal investigation into a Democrat whistleblower’s detailed complaint of a long-running, widespread ballot harvesting operation in the African-American communities in politically important central Florida.

Background: In late August, former Orange County Commissioner candidate Cynthia Harris filed an affidavit with the Florida Secretary of State’s office alleging that ballot harvesters showed up at her home attempting to collect her ballot when she shut them down. Harris claims they are part of an illegal ballot-harvesting operation that’s been going on for years in the black community in the Orlando area. According to Harris, ballot harvesters are paid $10 for each ballot they collect.

Just the News reports- Harris described an intricate system funded by liberal-leaning organizations that dispatch ballot brokers into black communities to pressure voters to turn over their ballots. The $10 fee per ballot is divvied up among the parties who help complete the harvesting.

Harris explains:

You the candidate, or any political party, can find out when the absentee ballots are mailed and to whom. What happens is these ballot harvesters—they know which batch has gone out— they go to the door, and they ask you for your absentee ballot. Well, in communities that don’t look like me, no one does this, but in our community, it’s kind of like at accepted practices that the man is coming by to pick up my absentee ballot, or the lady is coming to pick up my absentee ballot.

And you know, it’s just utterly ridiculous that people don’t understand that once that ballot leaves your hand and it’s not placed in the mailbox or is not directly given to the supervisor of elections, you don’t know where it goes.  It’s possible that they throw them away—we’ve seen evidence of that. You see them, they steam open the ballots, and then they mis-mark them so that if it’s not for their candidate then that ballot is spoiled, so when people think that the numbers are low, it’s really not low, it’s just that someone has intercepted before it gets to the proper authorities

Cynthia Harris appeared on Just The News with John Soloman, where she explained what happened when the alleged ballot harvesters came to her door in 2017.

In Orlando, Jaw-dropping Allegations of Systemic Ballot Harvesting in Black Neighborhoods

By Athena Thorne, PJM, October 27, 2022:

Florida’s new Office of Election Crimes and Security (OECS) has collected enough evidence of jaw-dropping systemic ballot harvesting in the Orlando area to recommend state law enforcement open a full criminal investigation. Ballot harvesting — the collection and casting of third-party ballots — can lead to fraud and is illegal in Florida.

Investigative news site Just The News obtained a statement from the Florida Department of State, confirming the OECS investigation:

“The Florida Department of State, Office of Election Crimes and Security (OECS) was made aware of this issue around September 1, 2022,” the department said. “After further inquiry, OECS received additional information related to the allegation on October 17, 2022, and performed a preliminary investigation.

“Since OECS is an investigative entity and does not [have] authority to make arrests, the office forwarded the complaint to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement for possible violation of section 104.0616, Florida Statutes,” it added.

Just The News reports that the OECS investigation was launched after Cynthia Harris, a former candidate for Orange County Commissioner, filed a sworn affidavit with the Florida Secretary of State’s office. In her affidavit, Harris described a long-standing, systemic ballot-harvesting operation in the Orlando area’s African-American communities. On Wednesday night, Harris appeared on Just the News, No Noise to discuss the electoral exploitation of black communities that she says has been going on for years.

“So what happens is, in our community, when absentee ballots are mailed, you, the candidate, or any political party can find out when the absentee ballots are mailed and to whom. What happens is these ballot harvesters, they know which batch has gone out, they go to the door and they ask you for your absentee ballot,” said Harris. “Well, in communities that don’t look like me [aka white communities], no one does this,” noted Harris, who is black. “But in our community, it’s kind of like an accepted practice that the man is coming by to pick up my absentee ballot, or the lady is coming to pick up my absentee ballot.”

Just The News reports that Harris “even recorded a ballot broker coming to her home in 2017 to collect her ballot, and obtained the script that harvester was given by her bosses to make the pitch for a voter to turn over their ballot.” Harris, a Democrat, alleges that the entire operation is funded by progressive organizations:

[Harris] filed a sworn affidavit in late August with the Secretary of State’s office alleging that illegal operations to collect third-party ballots have been going on for years in the Orlando area where voting activists are paid $10 for each ballot they collect.

She described an intricate system funded by liberal leaning organizations that dispatch ballot brokers into black communities to pressure voters to turn over their ballots. The $10 fee per ballot is divvied up among the parties who help complete the harvesting.

There is so much more in the report from Just The News that at this point I’m just going to send you there if you want to keep reading. But suffice it to say that, in her affidavit, Harris served up plenty of what sure sounds like actionable information and evidence.

Harris had long been frustrated with the alleged underhanded system in place in her community, but her motivation to finally come forward and swear out an affidavit likely stems from her own experience with wonky ballot counting last summer. Harris ran in the primary for Orange County Commissioner and came in second place on election night, pleased to have made it to the runoff stage. But during a recount, Harris told Just The News, her tally dropped by 14 votes, and she was declared the third-place winner. Her experience parallels what Republicans across the country have been pointing to for years as evidence of the need for greater election integrity.

Three day weekend election holiday for in-person voting with ID. Overseas Armed forces (copy of orders), overseas Americans, (copy of visas), and medically infirmed (doctor’s note) only allowable mail-in voting.

Ballot harvesting has been going on all over the country and needs to be suppressed and stopped ASAP.

Because treason is no longer illegal under the dims.

Because those who are in power are the ones doing it.

Skip the hysteria and hyperventilation. All she’s accusing the organizations involved of is harvesting ballots in reliably Democratic areas. That’s somehow treason? Where did you and Geller go to law school–the Heinrich Himmler Law Academy?

The real crime of this is that other people have probably been reporting this for years and were most likely ignored! No this is not new! Yes it has gone on for years, if not decades. What is new is that someone is paying attention now.

O’Rourke in Texas has violated election law, twice.
1. Planned Parenthood and Beto Caught Attempting to Register DEAD People to Vote
BY ASHLEY LEENERTS ON OCTOBER 21, 2022NEWS
“Earlier this month, the Republican Party of Texas issued a press release revealing that Planned Parenthood Texas Votes (PPTV) was mailing voter registration cards to deceased individuals. The Texas GOP continued their investigation and discovered something shocking. Not only was PPTV sending registration mailers to dead people, but the Beto O’Rourke campaign was also mailing pre-filled registration applications to individuals who had been dead an average of thirteen years.”
2. McLennan Republican Party files formal election violation complaint against Beto O’Rourke for rally speakers (msn.com)
“The Republican Party of McLennan County has lodged a formal complaint against Beto O’Rourke Wednesday, saying he and his campaign violated a Texas Election Code. According to a news release from the party, the Democratic governor candidate held a rally within 500 feet of the voting center at Waco Multipurpose Facility on Elm Avenue. During the rally, they allege he was using a microphone and amplifier that could be heard at the voting center, according to a statement by the party.”

Any evidence that the ballots supposedly harvested were illegal ballots?
