Key Allegations

The following evidence of election fraud in Nevada was presented to the US Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, Full Committee Hearing, examining irregularities in the 2020 Election, December 16, 2020. Chaired by Senator Ron Johnson. Jesse Binnall presented testimony that:

• Over 42,000 people voted more than once. Experts reviewed the list of actual voters, comparing it to other voters with the same name, address, and date of birth. They also detected instances of people using different variations of their first name. ¹

• 1,500 dead people were detected as having voted ¹

• 19,000 voted in Nevada even though they didn’t live in Nevada. This was discovered by data matching with US Postal Service’s national change of address database, amongst other sources (taking care to exclude military voters and students). ¹

• 8,000 voted from non-existent addresses ¹

• 15,000 votes came from commercial or vacant addresses (based on US Postal Service’s data on commercial addresses or addresses vacant for more than 90 days) ¹

• 4,000 non-citizens voted, as determined by comparing official DMV (driver’s licence) records of non-citizens ¹

• The legal team were denied further access to perform forensic audits

  “We were denied access to almost anything meaningful that would allow us to verify [results, including] the paper backups for the electronic machines–we were denied any access to those, except from one machine in the entire state of Nevada. We brought forensic experts all the way to Nevada–people that could have discovered this information, people that could have told us what happened with these machines, and we weren’t allowed near them, we weren’t allowed any forensic audit–nothing that could have given us any transparency. That’s what we were denied, in Nevada.” ¹

“All in all, experts identified 130,000 unique instances of voter fraud in Nevada, but the actual number is almost certainly higher. This was not statistical sampling, but by analyzing and comparing the list of actual voters with other lists, most of which are publicly available.

“…We can’t pretend we have a clean election when there’s evidence to the contrary.”

“2000 Mules” Reveals Ballot Harvesting Operation

The May 2022 documentary 2000 Mules revealed video evidence of a coordinated, funded, illegal ballot trafficking network across critical swing states including Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada, and Texas.

The documentary explains how True the Vote were able to identify over 2,000 ballot traffickers by obtaining 2 petabytes of geofencing cellphone ping data purchased from brokers. Their threshold for identifying a mule was if they visited at least 10 drop boxes and made at least 5 visits to a non-profit organization which showed evidence of functioning as a ballot “stash house”. They then obtained 4 million minutes of drop box video surveillance footage through FOIA requests which showed the traffickers in action. ²

Election Integrity Scorecard

The Heritage Foundation’s Election Integrity Scorecard is an assessment of each state’s voting laws, written regulations and procedures. Nevada was ranked 50th out of 51.

View the full Scorecard for Nevada

It’s important to note that the scores above reflect the laws, regulations, and processes that exist within the state, but not whether they were actually followed. In the 2020 election, some states with highly-rated election integrity measures did not uphold them. ³ As The Heritage Foundation reminds us, even the best laws are not worth much unless responsible officials enforce them rigorously. It is up to the citizens of each state to make sure that their elected and appointed public officials do just that.

Court Cases

Lawyer Jesse Binnall has testified that:

• Nevada’s lower court used technicalities to limit the presentation of evidence and limit the amount of witnesses we could bring forward saying that we “couldn’t introduce any live testimony but only 15 depositions … only 15 depositions to show 130,000 instances of voter fraud ¹

• When it later went to the Supreme Court of Nevada they “gave us two hours to brief the issues before immediately coming down with a decision. We were never fully considered by those courts.” ¹

As of October 2021, the district, state and supreme courts have ruled on several election fraud issues, while numerous other cases are still open. Some cases were dismissed on legal technicalities, preventing evidence from being presented and considered; but a detailed list of cases and outcomes available here show that at a national level, Trump/Republicans have so far prevailed in 18 out of 25 cases that were decided on the merits of the evidence.

Seth Keshel’s Trend Analysis

Former US military intelligence officer and statistical analyst Seth Keshel analyzed the trends of voter registrations versus actual votes and discovered alarming anomalies in a number of counties, ones that defy typical historical trends. He has published a report for every state, indicating which counties’ vote counts align with the trend in voter registrations and which have small or large divergences.

Seth estimates that there may be approximately 100,000 votes for Biden in excess of what Nevada registration trends would indicate — a possible indicator of fraud. Counties with the greatest number of excess votes deserve closer inspection.

Seth has listed Nevada’s Clark and Washoe counties as being among the Nation’s Top 100 Worst Counties in terms of abnormal trends during the 2020 election.

Vote Count Irregularities

In August 2021, reports emerged that there were 8,952 more votes counted than were officially cast. 15 of Nevada’s 17 counties certified more ballots cast than there were individual voters recorded as voting. Clark (5,869 more) and Washoe (2,191) had the largest discrepancies, according to the analysis. ⁴

Alleged Interference from Mark & Priscilla Zuckerberg

Multiple reports ^{5 6 7 8 9 10} accuse charities supported by Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife of illegally influencing the 2020 presidential election in multiple states, including Nevada. Through their donations of $400 million into charities like The Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), millions poured into the key swing states of Michigan ¹¹, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Wisconsin, Georgia, Nevada, as well as Texas, North Carolina, and Virginia, in violation of federal law. ⁸

25 out of the 26 cities and counties that received at least $1 million from CTCL were won by Biden in 2020. ⁶

CRC traced $2,671,515 to two of Nevada’s 17 counties, accounting for 2.74 million of the state’s 3 million residents. ¹² These two counties, Clark (centered on Las Vegas) and Washoe (centered on Reno), were the only Nevada counties Democrat Joe Biden won in 2020 and accounted for 649,980 votes, or 92.4 percent of all his votes statewide. ¹³

Having paid poll workers in one district and only minimal volunteers in Republican districts added to the disparity while counting the votes, which could lead to inaccurate tallies.

The American Voter’s Alliance published a detailed investigative report on this issue, as did RealClear Investigations, InfluenceWatch, and Caesar Rodney Election Research Institute.

As of March 2022, twelve states have either banned or severely restricted the acceptance and use of private funds for state and local elections: AZ, AK, FL, GA, ID, IN, KS, MS, ND, OH, TN, and TX. Another 5 states have passed anti-Zuckerbucks legislation that is awaiting a Republican governor’s signature: AL, OK, SD and VA. We’re hoping that more will soon follow suit.

Bloated Voter Rolls

In Oct 2020, a month before the election, Judicial Watch released a study that found 353 US counties in 29 states had voter registration rates exceeding 100% of the eligible voting-age citizens.

In Nevada the following counties exceeded 100%:
Storey County (108%); Douglas County (105%); Nye County (101%)

While this could be a symptom of poor clean-up of voter rolls — where voters that have died or moved interstate are left on the rolls for extended periods of time — it creates significant opportunity for fraudulent ballots to be submitted under the names of expired voters, making them appear legitimate. This was made even easier with the prevalence of mail-in ballots and widespread abandonment of voter ID rules which occurred in many states during the 2020 election.

The door-to-door canvassing across numerous states is proving that “phantom votes” were indeed counted for certain voters who were registered but did not themselves submit a ballot.

Research is also underway to explore disconcerting cases in some states whereby voter rolls appear to have been deliberately padded with false, duplicated, or expired records, possibly for the purpose of providing cover for fraudulent ballots. This is evidenced by graphing the changes to voter rolls over time and observing patterns which appear algorithmically-generated rather than organic, and then drilling down to identify specific anomalous records. We hope to release more findings on these anomalies in the coming weeks.

Mar 17, 2022

Local Action Led to the Nye County ‘Amish’ Voting Victory Nevada Secretary of State candidate Jim Marchant explains how the “County Commissioner Strategy” led to Nye County’s decision to return to paper ballot voting. Marchant said that his team avoided discussions of outright fraud. “We just showed them how vulnerable these machines are and how uncertifiable they are.” Marchant thinks he can get the other 15-16 counties to come around to “Amish” voting, although Washoe and Clark are going to be the hardest.

State Representatives Supporting Election Integrity & Audits

Following the results of the Maricopa Arizona Forensic Audit, 188 state representatives from 39 states signed a letter asking for forensic audits in all 50 states.

From Nevada, only Assemblyman Jim Wheeler has so far signed the document.

The US Congress Election Integrity Caucus — a group of 55 federal members working together on issues of election integrity — has no members from Nevada.
