Don’t forget NC. TRUMP won the state, but the next SEVEN state offices went Democratic. And — the western part of the state, a rural trump area - was totally reeling from damage due to Hurricane Helene in Sept. of 2024. Hardly anyone there was worried about the “election”. With no water, power, food, etc. it doesn’t make any sense that trump “won” the state.

Thank you for another excellent analysis, God Bless!

Michael have you seen the evidence that Dissent Blooms substack article shows in Alabama a guy named J Cobbs is a person who is obviously or let's say has the Republican backed funds as well as has a huge industrial complex at 6705 Odessy in Alabama where he called the Election,has verified and owns election machines as well as he leases out the same address for military missile production . This screams corruption at its best and needs to be fully investigated . I know in Centerton Arkansas presidential votes changed on their own from blue to red. I've given you that info before but what Dissent Blooms has uncovered pretty much sets up the hows and he was in on the 2020 investigation of the Election ..and had ran those machines too

In a Newsweek comment three weeks ago Jack Cobb gets rather sloppy, at one point alleging that there was no exposure to ‘Starlink or other internet’ for more that 3 minutes. If codes were manipulated prior to the elections from tech manipulator access (Coffee Cty in 2021, for instance), 3 minutes is an eternity in data transfer terms esp to the election machines ready to receive remote intervention.

Was that in print or online?

I copied a reference to it from a Reddit discussion. I’ll look for it.

Ok these are the screenshots I took on June 12 from a long discussion on Reddit. It was 2-3 seconds, not minutes, and the Newsweek was mentioned in the thread also. Maybe you can go back in and find it or the other links in these shots.

Thank you Michael. I had asked you to do this a few weeks ago and appreciate your analysis.

Do you think it's been proved that the Russians interfered in the 2016 election?

Yes. The report made that clear. And collusion was proved but that’s not enough to bring an indictment for conspiracy. In part because of obstruction by many Trump team members.

Thanks for your continued interest and analysis of this alleged vote tabulator manipulation. New to me is that ETA was funded by USAID. Could this be why Musk went after and destroyed them first since he is alleged to have manipulated vote tabulators remotely using Starlink?

Would you devote a future Deeper Look analysis to Smart Elections. With their Rockland County, New York lawsuit they are further along than anyone else in proving or disproving what, up to now, are just speculation, theory and hypothesis.

Hi friend! I think some wires got crossed. Dr. Mebane did the work for USAID, not the ETA. They are funded by donations. 😊

Oops, my bad. Thanks for the correction. I listened to the article rather than read it and I guess my compression goes way down when I do that. Lesson learned!

No worries at all! I just know that some people (myself included) really love the grassroots aspect of the ETA and didn’t want that to be lost in the message! 😊

There is far more data collected in other states than what you mention here. How far did you explore the site? The YouTube and BlueSky has more current updates. The voting day stats ACROSS STATES under certain systems shows suspicious patterns consistent with manipulation patterns. There is data analysis on districts/precincts in NC, PA, MI, Iowa, NV, CA, and elsewhere. There is some indication that this was tested in 2016, attempted in 2020 but that the mail in vote was overwhelming enough to offset the same day manipulation—of course this would have enraged the Trump admin. Whistleblowers? They are probably all working for DOGE reprogramming and recoding all our data for Thiel. This manipulation would not have been apparent to voting officials and volunteers on Election Day, and the hacking could have been in play since the systems were breached in verified cases after 2020. There were certainly warnings put out there by qualified ‘white hat hackers,’ seemingly ignored. Audits must happen in several districts. 88 districts changed from blue to red; none from red to blue—despite down ballot contradictions. How unlikely.

Memo To Self:

Don’t be so quick to concede

Definitely DO NOT cal the Fuck to congratulate it.

See we have to get wise and be bold.

The hallmarks of grace and decorum must be shelved at such a time as this.

This is a war we are in.

We all need to accept this and act accordingly.

Thank you.

Also, Harris got fewer votes than the down ballot Dems like State Superintendent and a State Supreme Ct. position. The fact that people voted for Dems in those races but then chose Trump instead of Harris, is just not believable. And this pattern is shown consistently throughout NC. It's detailed in Nathan's latest appearance on the Roland Martin show here: https://youtu.be/rafLFLiUJXQ?si=JhvC2HfSavoUr4Rr

It definitely warrants further investigation with audits of paper ballots. Let's just find out once and for all. We need to secure midterms and avoid this undemocratic monkey business in the future.

The deeply flawed Democrat Party hasn’t been in sync with their own members since they stole the choice of Hillary over Bernie. Then they thought a cackling candidate know nothing in 2024 would be better than an actual senile know nothing. They are drowning and grasping at straws. Even CNN admits Donald is more beloved than Ronald or any other GOP President.

After the 2024 results are in they look to an organization such as the Election Truth Alliance that has the long standing credible reputation of a few months funded by USAID for explanation rather than a serious in depth root cause analysis.

We must treat anyone seriously buying into this utter nonsense with the same disdain that was shown to those who said Trump won in 2020.

Well that’s a bit over the top but you make an important point that election denialism keeps the dems from grappling with their brand problems. I think there’s some truth in that but theoretically even the Dems can walk and chew gum at the same time so it’s not either or.

We sure hope so...My money is still with the dems..Thanks for a "good" look at the possibilities..

As corrected above, ETA was not funded by USAID. Dr Mebane who did statistical analysis, has been funded in the past by USAID to analyze overseas elections.

Clark County is where Las Vegas is situated. There's no such thing as "late night" in Las Vegas.

Okay, tell me: if all the people like who've been telling us WHY Kamala Harris lost, backed with sound reasoning and logical argument, or so they would have it, will they now switch to arguing why it is that she OUGHT TO have lost?

Recently ETA sued for a recount in one of the NY counties that had responses from voters who gave testimony that up to half of votes failed to be counted. I think this is the kind of proof that is needed in PA, NV, and others.
