Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin said Monday there were likely hundreds of instances where people deposited more than one ballot into drop boxes between Oct. 18 and election day, Nov. 2, 2021.
Joe Vichot, Chairman of the Lehigh County Republican Committee, submitted correspondence on Jan. 20., 2022 to Deputy County Solicitor, Sarah Murray, regarding alleged multiple ballots deposited at drop boxes during the 2021 November election, according to a news release from the Lehigh County District Attorney's Office.
On Feb. 1, 2022, the Election Board of Lehigh County through Deputy Solicitor Murray referred the matter to the District Attorney for investigation. Martin said he referred the matter to Chief County Detective Michael J. Millan, who assigned County Detectives Richard G. Heffelfinger, Steven C. Furlong and Robert V. Egan to the investigation.
Based upon the investigation, Martin said he found that there were likely hundreds of instances where people deposited more than one ballot into drop boxes established for receipt of ballots between Oct. 18 and election day, Nov. 2, 2021. Over the time that drop boxes were in place 7,196 ballots were deposited and counted.
Based upon the review by the detectives, at least 288 people deposited more than one ballot in the various drop boxes, all of which were under video surveillance, according to the news release from the DA's office.
This is a violation of the provisions of the Election Code, which require that each voter deposit/deliver only their own ballot.
"Based upon the sampling, it is clear that many more than just those observed deposited more than one ballot," Martin said.
There was only one instance where it appears that more than two ballots were deposited; in that case, either five or six were deposited, Martin said. That person cannot be identified.
Martin said the vast majority of others captured on video depositing their ballots in drop boxes also cannot be identified. More than 14,800 ballots were delivered through the U.S. mail, and no video exists as to these, the DA's office said.
There will be no prosecution brought as a result of the investigation "because to prosecute those few whose identity can be proven would be unfair and unjust given the much larger numbers who cannot be identified and who also deposited multiple ballots," Martin said.
Martin said the complaint of the Lehigh County Republican Committee is well-founded, and that there are hundreds of instances where voters violated the Election Code by submitting more than their own ballot.
Watch out for November 2022. It’ll be another blizzard of illegal votes.

Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.
So if we all rob a bank if they can’t identify everyone, no prosecutions should happen to those they can identify.
...’Likely hundreds of instances’...
I’d bet $5 there are a LOT more than that.
Sooo... they’re still cheating, and little being done about it. This is why I do not support the GOP. I support direct to candidates. The GOP does not protect our votes.
We could have honest elections if we wanted them.
Neither party wants them.
The Democrats cheated in 2020 — and why wouldn’t they cheat in 2022 or 2024? The thing to look out for: Democrats may cheat and make Mitt Romney or Jeb Bush president — as long as they can be sure that our next Republican president is farther Left than Biden/Harris/Obama.
It’s a fake.
“baseless claims”
Avalanche...........................
It’s the cell phone data that is allowing these ballot harvesters to be identified.
But I think we can expect the ballot harvester organizations to wise up. We can’t count on cell phone data in future elections. In the states where we can’t get the ballot boxes shut down, we need surveilance with facial recognition.
We have to guess at the state this is happening?
There will be no prosecution brought as a result of the investigation “because to prosecute those few whose identity can be proven would be unfair and unjust given the much larger numbers who cannot be identified and who also deposited multiple ballots,” Martin said.
Excuse me, WHAT?
They also have the mail carriers (and who knows who else) dumping Trump ballots and will do it again, because the republicans have too many assistant democrat commies.
They don’t even need all these illegal votes. They’re trying to burden America with the invaders and make criminals out of everyone who thinks bad thoughts of the left or carries a g.
All the local Republicans have to do is station 3 or 4 people at each drop box and have their cameras out and photograph every person that drops a ballot in. That would discourage the multiple droppers and the bulk droppers.
If the Black Panthers can put guys with clubs and machetes at polling stations we can put guys with cameras at drop box locations.....................................
IOW, everybody does it...................
No.................
Funny how they all forgot about the unquestionably illegal usurpation of the legislative power by the executive branch in changing election law
huh? prosecuting one criminal would be unfair to all the other criminals?
Be careful. Quantity counts. I don’t think dropping a ballot and one for your wife should be suspicious. So how could a 2 ballot drop ever be suspicious?
It’s the real bad guys who poke 20 or a 100 ballots through that are the ones we are after. There is no doubt they exist and I believe in large numbers. But I’ve never seen even one identified let alone interviewed.
My elementary school teacher’s voice is rattling around in my head, something about a bridge.
