x-Clinton lawyer threatens to sue Nevada unless ballot harvesting permitted

A prominent Democratic lawyer who represented Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign is threatening to sue the state of Nevada unless it immediately suspends prosecutions for ballot harvesting before the June 9 primary, among a slew of other demands, according to a letter obtained by Fox News on Tuesday.

Marc Elias, now representing the Nevada Democratic Party, also called for a substantial expansion to in-person voting access in the upcoming primary — though just days ago, he said it was a "national disgrace" that Wisconsin was moving ahead with in-person voting amid the coronavirus pandemic. (In both cases, he cited health concerns.) Democrats had feared that high turnout in Wisconsin would hurt their chances, while they have a more optimistic outlook in Nevada.

Writing on April 10 to Nevada Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske, a Republican, Elias first took aim at Nevada Revised Statutes section 293.330(4), which prohibits ballot harvesting and permits only certain individuals, like family members, to return ballots. Ballot harvesting, or the practice of allowing political operatives and others to collect voters’ ballots and turn them in en masse to polling stations, has drawn bipartisan concerns of fraud from election watchers.

In his letter, Elias argued that "many Nevada voters will not be able to return their mail-in ballots themselves and do not have family members – or are separated from these family members because of social distancing – who can do so for them."

"We ask that your office and the office of the Nevada Attorney General immediately announce a suspension of prosecutions under this statute for all elections for which mail-in balloting will be the primary means of voting in the state," Elias said.

At the same time, Elias called for Nevada to stop throwing out ballots when signatures on voters' ballots appear different from those on

Targeting states where illegal votes will help them the most...but coming to your state soon.

So go ahead and sue... sue God while you are at it... sue everyone! Sue the Electoral College. Sue the Constitution. -- Perhaps Elias is counting on a corrupt judge; ballot harvesting is the death of the integrity of the election process {chain of custody}.

It's one of those "Shakespeare was right" kinds of moments. Naturally, I mean that in the nicest possible way.

They need to be countersued by citizens who object. There is no way to certify those represent actual votes by actual voters.

Why not? No one ever inflicts consequences on them for it.

This is about November, the primary election is a smokescreen.

Oh I’m sure Barr is putting together a crack team of Comey’s agents and agentettes to watch this stuff.

PS,.that’s all they would do...watch.

‘’At the same time, Elias called for Nevada to stop throwing out ballots when signatures on voters’ ballots appear different from those on voters’ registrations, saying “lay election officials have never had the necessary expertise” to make an accurate determination’

This happened in Pima County and Maricopa County, AZ, in 2018. Signatures that aren’t even remotely like the signature on file were ‘accepted’ by the Democrat County Recorders. According to Adrian Fontes (Maricopa), ‘they do this in Tucson, so we can do it in Maricopa’. He said ‘we call and ask the person if they voted and, if they say yes, we accept the vote’.

AND THE REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT THIS!! For some reason, Republicans are giving the Democrats no reason to act lawfully. NO ONE IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR VOTER FRAUD!

Say hello to Senator Mark Kelly (Mr Gabby Giffords) in November, if nothing is done about voter fraud.

Isn’t it about time some of the Clinton/democrat minions start committing suicide rather than just their enemies?
