A report is being passed around by Big Media that claims due to a study that there was no election fraud in the 2020 election.
The Washington Times reported on it:
A research nonprofit says it did an extensive examination of 2020 voting data in eight swing states and concluded “evidence of fraud or compromise was not found.”
The highly technical 43-page study was produced by The MITRE Corp. and its National Election Security Lab in McLean, Virginia.
The “Bald Eagle” team’s paper, self-funded in the “public interest,” MITRE says, is an independent voice against former President Donald Trump’s repeated allegations of widespread fraud that stole the election for President Biden.
MITRE boasts a long history of contracts with the Defense Department and other agencies to run research centers and contribute to developing an array of new systems.
Its key election finding is that machines did not switch votes — a major allegation from Mr. Trump’s legal team and his “Stop the Steal” movement.
MITRE is a Defense Department and CIA contractor. This should raise some eyebrows enough to debunk the entire story.
MITRE’s clients lost revenues due to President Trump getting the US out of never-ending wars. These entities made money on sales during wars. They didn’t like President Trump because they weren’t making money with Trump’s policies. It maybe isn’t a surprise that MITRE produced this report that can be found here.
The report has five conclusions in its Executive Summary which we provide rebuttals for below. But first here are our top five election fraud issues for comparison with MITRE’s.
1 – The high-level observation that there is no way Biden beat the number of votes from Obama’s record-setting 2008 campaign and Hillary’s 2016 campaign due to the level of observed enthusiasm at Biden events and the Democrat party:
2 – Republicans were not allowed to review vote counts in Philadelphia, Detroit, Atlanta, Phoenix, and Las Vegas. The elections should have been invalidated right then and there and numerous people arrested.
3 – There was evidence of thousands of pre-printed ballots.
4. The drop and roll – ballot drops in the middle of the night for Joe Biden. Then a defined pattern that prevented President Trump from taking the lead after that.
5. All states in question are doing everything they can to prevent a forensic review of machines and especially ballots since the 2020 election.
Bald Eagle used two statistical analysis methods to research the allegations of ballot harvesting in Georgia. The first compared the number of ballots requested by mail to the number of ballots returned for each county in Georgia. The second examined addresses in Georgia that received multiple absentee ballots. After researching ballot return rates and addresses with multiple accepted ballots in Georgia, the team found no anomalous points through its analysis. There were no suspicious indicators of ballot harvesting.
This is only one fraudulent activity in the election and yet we have evidence there was harvesting of ballots in Georgia, and this claim is not accurate:
• A fingerprinting analysis technique derived from Klimek et al. [11] graphs the percentage of votes for the winner vs. the percentage turnout in a district. The resulting graph is a “fingerprint” of the election that can be used to detect certain types of electoral problems, including vote flipping, ballot box stuffing, and ballot harvesting. Using election fingerprinting for the counties in Georgia, the team saw no signs of vote flipping or ballot box stuffing. Statistical evidence derived using a quantitative technique, which is similar to fingerprinting, supports a finding that these analytic techniques do not demonstrate fraud.
This is truly one of the weakest accusations in the MITRE report. There is no way the many patterns of votes could have emanated without fraudulent activities being reported – see Solomon’s work in key states below, for example:
• Widespread vote manipulation by Dominion machines would likely be reflected in the election results data in the form of unexpected spikes in Democratic support that appear in counties using Dominion machines. To determine if any anomalous increases in Democratic support occurred in these counties, the team compared the election results data provided by eight key states in the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections. Bald Eagle split the data into two sets – one set consisting of the 318 counties that used Dominion machines, and one set consisting of the 333 counties that did not, as determined by data from the Verified Voting Foundation. Researching allegations of vote flipping with Dominion voting machines, the team found there was no statistical difference in the results from ballot machines from different vendors. The claim that Dominion machines artificially inflated results to Joseph Biden, Jr.’s advantage is not supported in the election results data.
Biden won Dominion-using counties by about two points overall compared with his 0.5-point margin in non-Dominion counties.
The whole country has reported on the numerous issues with Dominion. Their claims that their machines were not connected to the Internet were invalid per numerous events. This and other questions and observations lead us to question these results.
• After allegations that more than 100,000 votes were fraudulently dumped for Biden in Michigan, the team downloaded preliminary results from the Michigan Secretary of State’s website and compared each county’s preliminary results to the 2016 results. Antrim County appeared as an outlier because its support for the Democratic candidate appeared during a brief period of time to have nearly doubled from 2016 to 2020. After investigating Antrim County in Michigan for data anomalies that created temporary unusual increases in votes for Mr. Biden, the team found that the issues were caused by user error, which was discovered and corrected quickly and did not have an impact on the official election results.
The MITRE report neglected to address the vans dropping off ballots in Detroit at 4 am and the observations in the Drop and Roll video above:
• In October 2020, local news out of Pittsburgh published an article about the Butler County Elections Director stating that the United States Postal Service had lost an unknown number of mail-in ballots. In the days leading up to the statement released by the Butler County Elections Director, the mail-in ballot return rate for Butler County, PA (according to data collected from the Election Returns for Pennsylvania website) was significantly lower than the other counties in Pennsylvania. The team conducted iterative and daily analysis of the return rates, and although many requested mail-in ballots were lost in Butler County, PA, the overall return rate of ballots leading up to Election Day fell in the expected range of all other counties in Pennsylvania. No evidence of nefarious or fraudulent activities was identified.
MITRE acknowledges that there were ballots lost in Butler County. They claim it wasn’t much. What we know is President Trump had a rally in Butler County and had 58,000 people there, Biden couldn’t get ten people to fill circles at this silly small events:

Commuist Purge of History Alert!
Joseph Stolen — not the duly elected #46 POTUS
The author uses “drop” in the hipster sense.
Until and unless this entire Organized Criminal Enterprise is brought to justice, I will not consider this place I have loved, served and lived in for my entire life (72 years), The United States of America.
My Country is gone, it was stolen.
.
The Dems think that they can make the story of the 2020 election theft go away.
I predict it will have a longer and stronger life than the JFK assassination. Evidence, real evidence, will continue to be exposed for decades.
Well, if the foxes running the national chicken coop say so, then it must be so!
I still don't understand either what, exactly, happened or why even our allegedly conservative media (hello Fox, I see you have a lot of company in this) refuses to seriously report on it.
Truly, it's the only thing that really matters and they are utterly silent!
I don't "get" it.
One election was stolen, most of the country still belongs to "red blooded" Americans: 
PS - Riley, this is the new 2020 map, notice how Alaska changed from 2016?
Maybe our gal has a chance there after all?
Read later.
OBiden got more votes from 471 counties than Obama did from 873?
No way.
Demonrats and Republicans know the election was stolen, the courts know it was stolen, the world knows it was stolen, and the Trump supporters know it was stolen. The military know it was stolen. Media know it was stolen, that’s why they all quit counting at the same time. Biden is a fake pretender president. The evil is there for all to see and God will be their judge as to what was done and that nothing was done about it. This world is dark and disgusting, truly beyond fixing. I just repeat what Jesus said, “Be of good cheer for I have overcome the world.” Look what they did to Him.
They prefer the term “ Fortified” rather 5han Rigged.
Bkmk for later
The UniParty always wins
The electoral process has been formally corrupted since 1984. The “image’ of the Left as an honest political wing in the USA has been driven by the media.
Since 1984 the control of media outlets has dropped from over 50 different organizations to just 6 today. The product of that consolidation is an ILLUSION of a “powerful Left wing”, a manufactured progressive consensus that has usurped political power it has no business with honestly. “honest” votes for Biden/the Left were 30-35 million. At most.
The problems originate in corrupted, local electoral precincts in deep Blue urban centers. These NEED to be cleaned. Nobody desires the dirty job. Part of “redistricting” projects, BTW, is to create regions and social environments permitting unfettered and unhindered electoral Fraud.
Think parts of cities where Republicans fear to tread. No bipartisan voting observers. If any Republican observers, or even voters show up,they are threatened. This is the beginning process of turning a Red state Purple.
This article provides a glimpse into exactly this process going on in Philadelphia in 2009

There are more of “us” than “them” A whole lot more
Its all kayfabe. Its what they want you to believe, its what they want you to “feel”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayfabe
What the left has done, ever since the 1984 Reagan-Mondale blowout - (and Mondale was a “moderate” Democrat!) - is to start electoral fraud programs in the largest states to turn them from Red-to-Purple-to Blue. They realized they had no future otherwise. It started in California and New York.
This last election cycle local Texans managed to turn it around at the precinct level-their RINO Governor not withstanding.
Extreme involvement in your local precincts and making sure paper balloting on ELECTION DAY, with hand counts and recounts in a transparent fashion and setting with open audit trails available to the general public, among other measures-are key.
Its dirty, tough work and initially confrontational with the existing perps. As the above article illustrates, it will be dangerous. But it beats the heck outta the alternatives -which are bearing down like a runaway freight train
The left has focused on corrupting our local electoral process. They focus on the deep urban centers. This process of corruption is very active presently in Georgia, using Atlanta as its base, the last 2 election cycles. This process is seditious.
We the People have no future otherwise. These people INTEND to “rule”
The benefits of this process created the UniParty which is WHY this has been allowed to mature.
The coup, (the real “insurrection” in DC) and the “impeachment” is because Donald Trump upended THE largest, multi-trillion dollar industry in America. The selling of American Congressional Legislation. The primary industry in DC.
THE issue that binds Red and Blue together in the UniParty is the issue of electoral fraud.Its why certain precincts have voted Red or Blue for over 100 years. Its the means by which Congress and K St lobbyists can guarantee “product delivery” to interests that pay enough.
Various “intelligence agencies” are the enforcement arm. Prolly different ones (there are 17 of them afterall!) supporting different “service lines”
Its mutually assured destruction if either side starts to betray the long-standing inter-generational process.
Whenever the issue starts to bubble too close to the surface we all start getting entertained with “pizza parties” and “SRA” issues/trafficking stories etc.-and other Red-Blue “trigger issues” intended to distract us-but these are only incidental to the business at hand-the selling of the votes and legislation of the most powerful legislative body in the world.
These “trigger issues” are intended to remove our eyes from what is going on right before our very eyes! These “trigger issues” are the stick the Deep State uses to marshal the votes they need to deliver product.
The contemporary information-digital communications technology has the ability to put an end to all of this -which is why the “information war” on the American electorate. Why “us” versus “them” is finally crystallizing.
Its why they barricaded Capitol Hill, The White House and The Supreme Court
Software companies or "Beltway bandits" tend to produce reports that "please" their bosses. Their methodology, assumptions, and data lead to the target result.
A key factor in fraudulent claims would be settled by a forensic analysis of the original paper ballots.
Mitre seems to have selected a few instances of alleged fraud, refuted them, and then projected that result on the entire system.
Time for them to go back to the drawing board and do a more thorough job.
Where are the results of a forensic analysis of the original paper ballots?
Did they verify that the voter was registered, had a valid in state address, was of age, still alive? Did they perform a signature check?
Has Mitre provided the detailed evidence that shows that there were no "show stopper" election irregularities such as outright voter fraud, ballot mishandling, contestable process fouls, equal protection clause violations, voting machine irregularities, and significant statistical anomalies?
Where are the results of deep audits and forensic examination of the voting machines?
Election integrity concerns are a show stopper for the 2020 election. These concerns must be put away by presenting the genuine and detailed evidence that all was well, or identifying and fixing irregularities.
A superficial claim that there was no fraud is irresponsible and misleading..
