Claims in 'Duty To Warn' Letter to Harris Alleging Compromised Election Are Misleading [TDS Alert]

Self-described tech executive and network engineer Stephen Spoonamore asserted in a letter to U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris his "near certainty" that she, not President-elect Donald Trump, won the 2024 presidential election. Spoonamore described a hacking and fraud scheme whereby fake "bullet vote" ballots marked only for Trump and no other races or issues were inserted into electronic voting systems. However, Snopes' research, in which we compared the vote tallies cited by Spoonamore with the latest official election results, found his figures to be incorrect and his assertions to make no mathematical sense....

Spoonamore has made similar claims in previous elections:

Declaration of Stephen Spoonamore
740 Quinby Ave.
Wooster OH 44691
1. During the evening and early morning on the 2004 General Election in Ohio, on my
own computer was watching the results of incoming counties and precincts. I believed
there was a more than likely chance County Tabulators had been programmed to
manipulate votes. I had a simple Microsoft Excel program running to help with the
analysis. As early results showed Kerry ahead, at about 11PM, I noticed a trend in a
very few counties (I believe I noted 8 counties on election night) that at about 11PM
suddenly began reporting radically different ratios of Kerry to Bush votes. All in favor
of Mr. Bush. This sudden rate of change allowing a tuning of the system resembled a
fraud technique called an Intelligent Man In the Middle, or KingPin Attack. This type of
attack requires a computer to be inserted into the communications flow of an IT system.
The computer placed in the KingPin position has the ability to change information at both
ends of an IT system.

2. This Kingpin position in which a central computer sees both ends of a system would
explain the wide divergence in results reported from the limited group of counties now
referred to as the “Connally Anomaly”. It is extremely powerful situation, I suggested at
the time the incoming information flow to the Secretary of State’s offices were diverted to
a KingPin computer, or the Sec. of State in fact had allowed the data to be sent to a
KingPin. I was dismissed at the time.

3. My second analysis, found that my suspected 8 counties, were part of larger group of
12-14 “Connally Anomaly” counties where the results of a down ballot judicial race
indicated wildly different voter preferences than the Presidential Race. In the “Connally
Anomaly” Counties, tens of thousands of voters are recorded as having voted for an
extremely liberal, minority judge who had done no campaigning in the county, but cast
no vote for Kerry.

4.Other experts in voting and statistics have conducted analysis of this event and deemed
it “impossible” or “beyond 1 in a Billion” likelihood an election could have had such an
outcome. However, all the experts conclusions in the weeks following the election
further confirm the only likely explanation of the county level tabulators had been either
preprogrammed to flip a certain percentage of votes or, again most likely, a KingPin had
changed results during the night of the election. Other experts found additional data
indicated Bush’s increase in votes from these counties
, and Kerry’s decrease in votes from
these counties had grown by larger numbers after apx 10:45PM on Election Night. This
variable rate of change, which I had seen in results in 8 counties on election night, and
detected in 12-14 counties by additional analysis in the following weeks, again indicates
a KingPin computer had been “tuning” the election results to a desired outcome.

5. At the time of the analysis above, I, nor do I believe any parties knew of Sec. of State
Blackwell’s SmartTech insertion. At the time I stated Triad Systems, as the
programmers of the suspect tabulators was fully capable of either a Pre-Programmed
Hack or the setting up of KingPin. . .

Who Is Stephen Spoonamore?
As of this writing, Spoonamore’s LinkedIn page says he resides in Pennsylvania and describes him as a “C-suite veteran” and “technology policy developer.” His job history lists roles in media, communications, water treatment technology, information technology, electronics and, most recently, the building of software primarily for medical imaging. He recently noted (archived) on X he is “NOT a data scientist” but rather described himself as “a tech executive and network engineer.” According to Ballotpedia, he ran an unsuccessful campaign as an independent for a seat in the Ohio House of Representatives in 2016.

In the “duty to warn” letter to Harris, Spoonamore referred to himself as a “lifelong Republican” and cited numerous purported credentials, including working with clients at federal departments, delivering lectures, carrying out a special review and authoring hacking risk analyses. . .
