A film debuting in over 270 theaters across the United States this week uses a flawed analysis of cellphone location data and ballot drop box surveillance footage to cast doubt on the results of the 2020 presidential election nearly 18 months after it ended.
Praised by former President Donald Trump as exposing “great election fraud,” the movie, called “2000 Mules,” paints an ominous picture suggesting Democrat-aligned ballot “mules” were supposedly paid to illegally collect and drop off ballots in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
But that’s based on faulty assumptions, anonymous accounts and improper analysis of cellphone location data, which is not precise enough to confirm that somebody deposited a ballot into a drop box, according to experts.
The movie was produced by conservative filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza and uses research from the Texas-based nonprofit True the Vote, which has spent months lobbying states to use its findings to change voting laws. Neither responded to a request for comment.
Here’s a closer look at the facts.
CLAIM: At least 2,000 “mules” were paid to illegally collect ballots and deliver them to drop boxes in key swing states ahead of the 2020 presidential election.
THE FACTS: True the Vote didn’t prove this. The finding is based on false assumptions about the precision of cellphone tracking data and the reasons that someone might drop off multiple ballots, according to experts.
“Ballot harvesting” is a pejorative term for dropping off completed ballots for people besides yourself. The practice is legal in several states but largely illegal in the states True the Vote focused on, with some exceptions for family, household members and people with disabilities.

4 million minutes of security video backing up the geotagged cell phone data is called evidence in any normal court.
if geotagged information isn’t enough to accurately track cellphones, someone better tell the Dept of Defense... seems we may have been killing all the wrong people with our drones
AssPress is desperate.
Everyone knew this response was coming- The technical dismissal defense. What isn’t admitted here is that the pings are not at a single drop box, but multiple boxes in the same night. In many cases, if not the majority, it’s accompanied by video surveillance.
Who drops off ballots (for their “family”) at multiple drop boxes in a single evening? Who then, does it all again the next evening?
Funny how we didn’t have “fact checkers” until the TRUTH started coming out.
Every time the term “fact checker” is used, I now automatically assume everything following it is a bold faced LIE.
who wouldn’t trust the AP?
Here’s how they whitewashed Hunter Bidens laptop story.

While wearing rubber gloves.
“improper analysis of cellphone location data, which is not precise enough to confirm that somebody deposited a ballot into a drop box, according to experts. “
Yet it has been used to make sure people are standing 6 feet apart. How do you explain that AP?
Did they find the killer of Seth Rich yet?
Ali and the experts didn't watch the movie.
So the associated press believes cell phone tracking data was a great tool for the election protesters but a flawed tool for democrat ballot stuffers. Nope, no bias at all..
The AP has been a deep state propaganda outlet as long as I can remember. Does anyone but whacked out leftists even listen to them?
Clown world “fact check”. See article above about how laughable it is.
AP - America’s Pravda
Did Scary Poppins write this article?
More lies from the MSM.
I read this before. The AP admits in their statement it was wrong where they said “ but largely illegal in the states True the Vote focused on”
They can’t have it both ways.
Meanwhile, nobody’s talking about RCV and RCV-enabled voting machines.
Sigh.
No, but they caught the shooters by giving the location pings at the time of shooting and arrested the two shooters. Did you watch it?
I use geo-tracking for golf, it is accurate to within a foot. How do you think these cars self drive, it is probably accurate to less then an inch.
