Texas Woman Pleads Guilty to 26 Voter Fraud Felonies
-
-
She was trying to influence the outcome of a utility board election held in 2018 in Calhoun County, Texas, population 12,015.
Texas Attorney Gen. Ken Paxton announced that more than 500 election fraud cases are currently waiting to be heard in court.
Maybe after this one, the 499 left are perhaps more significant?
Or is it, they're just tackling the smaller, easier cases first.

She plead guilty, so it's a quick and easy case.

Quite honestly, most cases like this DO plead guilty. By the time they press charges, the evidence is usually overwhelming.
What's missing is that most of the remaining cases will be individuals who just messed up. Here in Fla, our courts are full of people being prosecuted because:
- They are ex-felons who believed their rights to vote had been restored
- They were right! They had been restored, except that they were then taken away again...
- They were not aware that the "restoration" of their voting rights had been rescinded - so they voted
- In a very curious twist: many Supervisors of Elections were ALSO not aware of the re-loss of their rights, so their names were STILL ON the voter rolls - which is how they were allowed to vote to begin with!
- Most of THESE cases are on hold - awaiting a small number of "trial" cases - even prosecutors think the cases may be thrown out because of Governmental incompetence (that is: the Government's inability to tell the voter of a change in their status before they voted).
The cases like the one cited here are not numerically rare (there are plenty of them) - but they are statistically rare! What's the difference?
- Every election cycle, the local (I live in Florida) Sheriff's charge a couple-dozen people in the area with voting charges... a few of these are people who voted twice (old people have a pattern of early-voting, forgetting that they voted, and then showing up at the poll on Election Day), some are for "ballot harvesting" (a neighbor got in trouble because her neighbor gave her her ballot to take to the early voting poll... she did, and that's illegal.)
- The total number of votes that these charges represent is almost always less than 1 in a thousand, sometimes less than 1 in 10,000. Except in rare instances of exceptionally close races (usually in our really small beach-towns, or for something like the Fire District Board). Regardless, the sum total of all of the cases is statistically insignificant.
Where do I get this kind of data? The Florida Secretary of State (who oversees the Supervisors of Elections in each county) reports on things like this after every election cycle. They are not heavily publicized - usually because there is nothing exciting to see! - but they are Government Documents, so they are open to the public.

Questionable Reasoning: Conspiracy Theories, Propaganda, Imposter Site, Lack of Transparency

MBFC Credibility Rating: LOW CREDIBILITYHistory
Founded anonymously in 2020, Resist the Mainstream is a website that publishes conservative news and opinion stories. The website lacks transparency as they do not name an editor or state who owns them. Authors are credited but typically do not use their full or real names. According to their about page, “Resist the Mainstream is a site for people who have lost complete trust in the mainstream media. Our mission is to report the news the mainstream media won’t.”The contact page claims they are from Miami, Florida; however, this is a digital virtual mailbox forwarding service that attempts to lend them credibility as an American source. According to Stanford researchers, the website is from Veles, Macedonia, posing as an imposter conservative news source. Further, the domain for this website changes frequently to avoid being shut down.
Since 2016, Macedonians have produced numerous fake conservative websites to dupe American conservative readers and generate advertising revenue through social media sharing.
Funded by / Ownership
Resist the Mainstream lacks transparency as they do not disclose ownership. Advertising generates revenue.Analysis / Bias
Resist the Mainstream does not publish original news content but rather copies snippets of full articles from other sources. In some cases, they provide a crediting link to the original source, and in other cases, they violate copyrights and plagiarize. All articles reviewed favored a conservative perspective and many utilized poor sources who frequently fail checks, such as The Blaze, Mike Lindell, and the Gateway Pundit.While many of the news stories are fact-based and properly sourced, some promote US election fraud conspiracies, and others promote skepticism on human-influenced climate change Alarmist Flies Son to College on Private Jet. The news published on Resist the Mainstream is usually fact-based; it is also highly partisan, favoring the right, and frequently relies on poor sources that lack credibility.
Failed Fact Checks
An IFCN fact-checker has not fact-checked them.
Overall, we rate Resist the Mainstream Right Biased and Questionable based on the promotion of conspiracy theories, use of poor sources, propaganda, a complete lack of transparency resulting in an imposter site passing off as an American conservative news outlet.

"Suspicions were raised about the water board election when more than 10 percent of the town’s 2,500 voters registered using the same mailing address."
When that was the evidence, it still took almost 4 years for her to plead guilty. This Texas anti-voter fraud effort sure has its work cut out for it. More power to 'em.

Are you saying this is fake news?
If you are concerned about the site, most articles are sourced from other sites. Plus you can do a web search to find more info.

The legal system is broken. Glaciers move faster unless you go against the DNC.

Are you saying this is fake news?
FAKE NEWS? As-in the Trump definition of "fake news" (which is: it's not important enough to be "news") - then yes, this is fake news...
Not to be confused with wrong or invalid information...
Truthful, yes... fake news, also yes!

I'm not spamming. I simply think that people should always check media bias. It's not just on the right but left as well. Media Bias Check just gives the information on all media outlets. Personally, people should always check.
-
You are spamming when you post nothing but the same shit in multiple threads.
It's funny that I don't see you posting that shit for every news outlet, just the ones you don't like.
Your motives are quite clear.
I also noticed that you refuse to discuss the actual topics, because you know the article is true.

@raphjd LOL! It's not spamming. In fact, I implore EVERY member here to do a media bias fact check. I refuse to discuss actual topics? I respond and discuss porn stuff, yes. Half the stuff I see from you is post conspiracy theories. Is it worth discussing? No. Do people deserve to know if this "news" is credible or not? Absolutely. Should people check media bias? Absolutely. As aforementioned, I implore EVERY MEMBER here to check for this bias.
LOL! I swear this takes me back to college and having to write all these papers that I had to do because they were a requirement and part of my syllabus. If I EVER credited Wikipedia as a source, those papers would get thrown right back in my face and those professors would give me an 'F'.
MEMBERS! Do a FACT CHECK! This is not SPAM. These are two helpful resources:
-
You refuse to discuss any of the actual topics in this section, but you have no problem spamming them to take them off topic.
It is spam when you keep posting the same shit over and over, which is off topic.
This is your last warning, because I will treat any further case of this as spam.
