Maricopa County Election Judge Speaks Out

No matter what the results of the midterm elections are in Arizona, Maricopa County is yet again at the center of controversy, and for a good reason.

Election judge Michele Swinick has come forward to report what she experienced in Maricopa County on Election Day. She worked Election Day as a judge at the Islamic Voting Center in Scottsdale, AZ. She reports that the center is heavily Republican, with “no party” designated voters as the second most populous demographic, followed by very few democrat voters, evidenced by the fact that she checked in very few of them on Election Day. She reports she spent the entire day checking in voters.

Swinick says that the tabulators all worked “perfectly” during the test the night before the election. The problem with scanning began immediately with the first ballots. Voters scanned their ballots between 4 and 12 times with very minimal success. Poll workers estimated about 1 in 10 ballots were being read for the first three hours of voting.

Voters were given options to either spoil their ballots and try again or drop them into a different section called “Door 3.” As per Swinick, their inspector had to empty the ballots from “Door 3” three times throughout the early afternoon because of the volume of ballots. Typically, ballots aren’t supposed to be removed from that box until polls close, but they made an exception because the box was jamming and became too full.

Swinick reports that the technician came to the center between 3:30 pm and 4:00 pm MT and rebooted the machines. After this, there were no further issues with ballots being run through tabulators. She reported that one of the poll workers told her, “Everything is now going smoothly with the tabulators.”

Per Swinick’s inspector, an offsite supervisor had advised “Because of the situation” to put all “door 3” ballots that had not been scanned through a tabulator into a separate black bag and to label them “misreads.” As a judge, Michele told UncoverDC that she personally signed the sticker placed over the bag’s zipper, and then these bags were sent to the tabulation center to be counted. Michele informed us that the normal process for a ballot that is “unread” is for poll workers to run the ballots through the tabulators one more time before sending them to the center. As per Swinick, this was not done.

The County had set up a website to give voters the ability to check that their vote was counted. The problem is Michele has proven that the website isn’t correct and seems to be using a voter’s “check in” as evidence their vote was tabulated rather than the actual tabulation of the vote. Michele offered her first-hand proof of this.

“My roommate ran his ballot through the tabulators 15 times as one of the 1st voters at the Islamic Center. It did not read the ballot. He was forced to drop it in door #3.

About an hour after I arrived home at 9 pm MT, my roommate checked the website to see if his vote had been counted. The website reported it was. It is mathematically impossible for his vote to have been counted by then since only an hour before, I left the center, and the ballots had not been taken from the center to the meeting point where the ballots are hand exchanged to another transport team, which takes them to the tabulation center. For his ballot to have been counted, it would have also needed to be sorted and hand-counted by a team at that center and reported into the website —all within that hour.

In the case of In Person/Day of Voting, this proves the reporting of his ballot being received & counted is actually based on his being checked into the Voting Center and him receiving a ballot to be cast—NOT his ballot being scanned and read through the tabulator or hand counted at the tabulation center.”

Michele has also been threatened by her supervisor (first name Timothy) for speaking out about what she has witnessed. He called her and said they “have been scouring social media and saw posts (that Michele) would be going on several podcasts to report information about the election.” Michele told UncoverDC that she was questioned about her podcast, what it’s about, and that they accused her of already appearing on other podcasts earlier in the day, even though, at the time, that was untrue. As per Swinick, her supervisor told her, “if I find out you have gone on any podcasts, I will terminate you.”

UncoverDC asked Michele for her opinion of what was going on, given her experience. She said:

“In my opinion, the machines were programmed to do this, and it was all planned. The process and narrative, both machines and people. It was brilliantly done. They isolated the ballots to replace or not count them in 223 bags. The hard part for them in 2020 and during the primary was getting the ballots to match their manufactured machine count. This way, they have everything isolated in the bags.”

That Bill Gates?

Actions speak louder than a party ID in name only to get elected.

The shady Maricopa officials disenfranchised voters by spreading misinformation & suppressing votes in GOP areas.

Just some representative examples. Think of how many GOP voters were disenfranchised by the corrupt Secretary of State who ran the election (even though she was in it) and the corrupt Maricopa officials

Maricopa County fits right in with North Korea and Afghanistan with regards to voter rights

Lol. More crying, whining and complaining from some of the same election denying jackasses from the 2020 election. There is again no proof of election fraud. Hobbs won, election denying radical right-wing maga asshole Lake lost. Kelly won, election denying radical right-wing maga asshole Masters lost.

Yet again, the maga maggots are going to cry election fraud. Way to go Arizona... you voted for democracy and stopped the lying-ass maga-maggots. It's going to be fun sitting back and watching the crazy-ass conspiracy theories that arise from these low-life pieces of garbage.

Were not eleccting a class president, and the echo chamber of "fake news" and election denial, and the resulting mess of Jan 6th, are the reality of a ruse. You can say you don't trust elections, but after a large number or re-counts and zero proof in courts or any other forum other than public opinion, NO PROOF of fraud is / has been proven. The fact that the GOP has ginned up the followers, is to put sauve on the bubblin lip of the last dude who lost. The rhetoric has to stop; Election deniars are the real threat to the republic.

Yelling fraud, doesn't make it true.

Courts have proven that no statistical amount has been found.

70 plus court cases- NADA.


When will you people stop with the bullshit?????
