Systemic ballot fraud is easy in Nevada. It starts with the voter registration process. The registration application requires a state driver’s license or state identification number. But if you don't have those, that's no big deal: The last four digits of a Social Security Number are fine.
The application signature is then scanned into a database of voter signatures. Mailed-in ballots are signed by the voter on the return envelope. A real verification process would match the signature on the envelope with the scanned signature on file.
But even if that worked perfectly, and it was very far from perfect, the name on the reistratioin application (and the same name on the ballot), could be ANY name from a 30 year-old Nevada phone book. The illegal "voter" could be dead, or living in another state.
There is no Nevada process to verify if the vote is legal. Whoever voted just needs to have the same signature as the person who registered to vote. The “signature matching” after the ballot is received should prevent fraud with mail-in ballots, but does it work? It does NOT work.
Democrat interest groups started filing lawsuits around the country in the weeks before the election to throw-out signature matching requirements because election workers were NOT handwriting experts. A “false” mismatch would result in a valid ballot being rejected. Democrat groups won some of these lawsuits in district court, but I believe those decisions were all overturned by appeals courts.
How well did signature matching work in Nevada? An 89 percent failure rate !
Las Vegas Review-Journal's Victor Joecks, a columnist on the OpEd page, asked friends to test the signature matching verification system used in Clark County (where Las Vegas is located).
They used an automated system that used a computer program to quickly compare the signature on file, with a scanned image of the ballot envelope signature.
Nine of Joecks' friends completed their mail-in ballots, and sealed them inside the envelope themselves.
But they signed the ballots by tracing Joeck’s handwritten version of their signatures. So they DID sign the ballot, to avoid breaking the law, but with a copy of Joeck's cursive handwriting, of their name. The signature “style” was Joeck’s writing. And the signatures were purposely made to NOT match the real signatures for each registered voter on file.
Clark County records show that 8 of the 9 ballots were approved by the automated “signature matching” process! That is an 89% failure rate of the “signature matching” safeguard that state and county election officials in Nevada used. And it was probably used in many other states too.
There are affidavits from people in Clark County saying, under penalty of a felony fraud charge, that ballots were being filled out on election day by campaign workers, and then submitted in ballot return envelopes, votes were cast by dead people, and by people who moved out of the state over one month before the election, so they were no longer were eligible to vote in Nevada.
County officials say they catch fraudulent votes “when they’re reported to us". But criminals will never admit they committed voter fraud, so Clark County officials will never find out ! The election was close in Nevada, but how many votes were legal votes? We may never know.
