Right-wing election-denying group claims victory after software CEO arrested over poll worker data
Daily Dot ^ | 10/06/22 | Mikael Thalen

Conspiracy theorists celebrated this week after the arrest of the CEO of an election software company, who they accused of flipping the 2020 election to President Joe Biden.

But is their rejoicing actually valid?

The fiasco began on Monday after the New York Times released an article centered around a small elections company in Michigan that had become the target of unfounded voter fraud claims.

The company, known as Konnech, had been accused of not only having secret ties to China but of giving the Chinese Communist Party backdoor access to personal data on roughly two million poll workers in the U.S.

The accusations were spearheaded by “True the Vote,” a nonprofit run by prominent election deniers that were featured in the widely debunked election fraud documentary 2000 Mules. True the Vote has repeatedly claimed that it was able to access Konnech’s database, by guessing its password as “password,” and download personal information on roughly 1.8 million poll workers.

Konnech responded by stating that True the Vote’s claims were false given that they only had records on less than 240,000 poll workers that were stored across multiple databases. Konnech ultimately sued True the Vote last month for defamation, violation of the federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and theft, among other charges.

True the Vote would later change its story, alleging that it only ever saw a screenshot of the data provided by a third party. Nonetheless, the conspiracy theories tying Konnech to supposed fraud in the 2020 election continued.

The “seriousness of the charges” always applies when it is Democrats doing the accusing. Even if the charges are ludicrous like Pappy Bush flying in an ST71 to Paris to meet with Iranians to get them to agree to hold onto the hostages till after the election.

Democrats lie, the media comes a running like affection starved puppies.

"Mikael Thalen is a pedophile groomer"

If I was forced to make guess based on a photo, I would say you are possibly onto something.

No bias here. Why do they have to repeat this every time?

“True the Vote,” a nonprofit run by prominent election deniers that were featured in the widely debunked election fraud documentary 2000 Mules.

What was really written:

“True the Vote,” a nonprofit run by prominent election deniers that like to butcher black children and forcibly feed their livers to their mothers after draining the child's blood so that the blood can be used in their Columbus Day hot dog and hamburger buns. Who charge usurious prices at the gas pumps and seek to despoil all natural environments with oil wells, and open pit mines, despoiling the landscape with toxic slag heaps and...

From the side: "Mr. President, you're going a bit overboard! Hush!"

To the side: "This is the internet. They don't know it's me."

...So if you believe this garbage they are purveying you are an enemy of the state and I will survielle you, just waiting until you make a mistake. And then I will have the FBI raid your house, if I don't outright tell them to raze it with you and your family in it, you miserable curs! You filthy swines, you see these Marine guards? I'll have the hang you upside down and disembowel you! Thank you for your time, my fellow Americans"

From the side: "Oh, Jesus, how are we ever gonna clean this one up?"

Written by a Konnech wrongdoing denier. You would think that “True The Vote” was the bad guy when you read this screed. Not so debunked after all, eh?

Tbis headline might be irritating, except for the fact that it comes from the Daily Dot, whatever that is.

If only Republicans weren’t so useless so much of the time. They often long to get along with those who would skewer them with glee. They may occasionally resist some new Democrat lawlessness but actually rolling it back later?

This video nails them: Republicans in 5 Years
