Maricopa County 2022 election machine failure locations<\/p>\n
As Maricopa County faces scrutiny for another third-world election, its communications team is stonewalling The Gateway Pundit yet again.<\/strong><\/p>\n The Gateway Pundit reported on the frustration during Tuesday\u2019s compromised election<\/a>, where in-person voters were left driving around town, and Maricopa County allegedly instructed them to vote at closed voting centers. Additionally, Maricopa County\u2019s signature verification cameras were turned off temporarily when early ballots were being processed. One voter described it as the \u201crecurring nightmare\u201d in Maricopa County.<\/p>\n It would appear to this author and others that Maricopa County is now trying to hinder our ability to gather news surrounding this topic.<\/p>\n The local election was only for items including tax measures in participating jurisdictions. But how can we trust them to handle the next Presidential Election if they can\u2019t even handle a small election or take questions from honest media?<\/p>\n EXCLUSIVE: \u201cRecurring Nightmare\u201d \u2013 Maricopa County\u2019s Latest Election Interference: CAMERAS OFF, Voting Locations Close Early, Voters Who Called Maricopa Sent to CLOSED Locations in Jurisdictional Election (VIDEO)<\/a><\/p>\n\n Recall that The Gateway Pundit successfully sued Maricopa County<\/a> for barring our correspondent, Jordan Conradson, from their press room, citing \u201ca real or perceived conflict of interest\u201d and claiming he is \u201cnot a bona fide correspondent of repute.\u201d Never mind the far-left dishonest hacks that were approved by Maricopa County. They didn\u2019t want us in their press room, asking about the actual conflicts of interest<\/a>:<\/p>\n Soros-funded former Secretary of State Katie Hobbs oversaw and certified her own election for Governor. The people orchestrating elections in Maricopa County have conflicts of interest with candidates, including themselves, and many are up for re-election in 2024. How can they be impartial when they are incumbents, and these\u00a0errors seem to always favor them or their preferred candidates? Has there ever been\u00a0an example of \u201chonest mistakes\u201d going the other way? This author can\u2019t find any.<\/strong><\/p>\n Their content-based restriction against The Gateway Pundit in 2022 came after our reports criticizing the 2020 election, where we released audio tapes so damning to Maricopa County and their rigged elections that former Supervisor Steve Chucri resigned from office<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve had Democrats write me and say they don\u2019t have confidence\u2026 I think it was done through dead people voting,\u201d Chucri said<\/a> of the \u201cmultifaceted\u201d and widespread election inconsistencies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The hostility from Maricopa County has only increased since we\u00a0embarrassed them, and our reporting led to a Supervisor\u00a0resigning.<\/p>\n The last thing they could handle was Conradson and RAV correspondent Ben Bergquam in their press conferences following the debacle on election day, where 60% of machines malfunctioned for Republican in-person voters. So, Maricopa County Sheriff\u2019s deputies\u00a0threatened Conradson and Bergquam\u2019s arrest and followed them with a drone<\/a> away from the election center in Phoenix.<\/p>\n It wasn\u2019t enough for\u00a0Stephen Richer<\/a> and Katie Hobbs<\/a>\u00a0to collude with Twitter and federal agencies to censor The Gateway Pundit\u2019s factual reporting<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Ninth Circuit US Court of Appeals ruled in our favor, commenting that Maricopa County \u201ccan\u2019t be trusted with the First Amendment,\u201d but they still haven\u2019t learned.<\/p>\n The Ninth Circuit panel absolutely skewered Maricopa County for unconstitutionally discriminating against us and our processes.<\/p>\n Via Terri Jo Neff for the Arizona Daily Independent<\/a>:<\/p>\n At one point, Judge Ryan D. Nelson asked, \u201cwhy are you using this?\u201d in referring to the press pass criteria. Nelson, a Trump appointee, was then interrupted by Callahan, who pushed back on the county\u2019s claim that its criteria had nothing to do with Conradson\u2019s personality or whether county staff liked the journalist\u2019s work.<\/p>\n \u201cThe First Amendment means that we have to hear things, sometimes, that we don\u2019t want to hear,\u201d<\/strong> said Callahan, a GW Bush appointee. \u201cIt protects the unpopular speech.\u201d<\/p>\n Callahan told Trullinger that it \u201cjust seems like you\u2019ve got county officials here not liking this person and what this person\u2019s saying.\u201d When Trullinger offered a response, stating the county\u2019s interest is with a journalist\u2019s news gathering \u201cprocess\u201d and not the content, he was interrupted by Nelson.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve got to be honest. What you\u2019ve just said seems like a blatant violation of the First Amendment,\u201d<\/strong> Nelson stated. \u201cThis just goes to the point you guys can\u2019t be trusted with the First Amendment.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Even Biden appointee,\u00a0Judge Holly A. Thomas, noted,\u00a0\u201cIt can\u2019t be right that you get to dictate who they talk to, [or] how they go about gathering the news.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Prior to the Appeals Court ruling, Moseley testified that he \u201chandle[s] probably 90 percent of the questions\u201d for the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors and other departments. He further stated that he is \u201cnot aware\u201d of us ever contacting him for information or comment on a story. Moseley also expressed his opinion that \u201cMr. Conradson doesn\u2019t present as an ethical journalist who\u00a0practices with integrity or professionalism,\u201d and \u201che doesn\u2019t\u00a0contact us to seek the truth or to seek our response to what an\u00a0accusation might be.\u201d<\/p>\n In closing, attorneys for Maricopa County agreed with the Judge that The Gateway Pundit was guilty of \u201cnonconformity with the process\u201d used by Maricopa County\u2019s handpicked journalists. Given that Ben Bergquam and Jordan Conradson are the only reporters who were banned from Maricopa County after questioning the integrity of Maricopa County\u2019s elections and their excuses, it would be reasonable to conclude that reporting on fraudulent elections is not in accordance with \u201cthe process.\u201d<\/p>\n When we followed \u201cthe process\u201d by calling Moseley on Wednesday to ask questions about the recent election and seek the county\u2019s response to accusations of misconduct, the conversation went something like this:<\/p>\n *Some quotes may not be 100% accurate because Moseley would not grant permission to record the call. Conradson took notes during his phone call with Moseley.<\/em><\/p>\n Conradson, currently\u00a0reporting from a two-party consent state, first asked Moseley if he consented to Conradson recording the conversation. Moseley responded,\u00a0\u201cI do mind. Why don\u2019t we talk first?\u201d which Conradson found odd, considering Fields Moseley is the \u201cCommunications Director.\u201d So, Conradson questioned Moseley about his testimony in court, saying that the media should go through him and that Conradson should be doing his due diligence as a reporter to contact officials and get quotes. This is Journalism 101, of course\u2026 But how do you quote someone accurately or resolve disputed statements when you are denied the ability to keep an audio record, the most reliable record of exactly what they said?<\/p>\n Moseley then stated that he is not actually who we should be calling when we have questions, and he had five other media requests to get to. This, again, is odd, considering his prior testimony under oath. This is the same guy who testified that we\u2019re not real journalists because we don\u2019t contact the communications director.<\/strong> He appears to contradict his testimony here.<\/p>\n To\u00a0answer our questions, Moseley provided the contact information for Deputy Elections Director Jennifer Liewer. When Conradson called Liewer on Wednesday, however, she was at Starbucks and said she would call back \u201cin 15 minutes.\u201d After not receiving a callback, Conradson phoned three more times over the next two hours, left multiple messages, and still got no response. Liewer finally responded via email after ignoring two calls, a voicemail, and a text message, stating, \u201cIt is my preference that we communicate\u00a0in writing.\u201d<\/p>\n After some difficulty, delay, and several attempts to get a comment via email, Liewer sent the following statement to The Gateway Pundit.<\/p>\n Per statute, for a vote by mail election, every jurisdiction had to have at least one ballot replacement center within their boundaries. In addition to a ballot replacement center, several jurisdictions also opted to offer ballot drop boxes. The drop box locations and hours of operation were determined by the jurisdictions. On Election Day, every participating jurisdiction had at least one location for a voter to obtain a replacement ballot or drop off their mail-in ballot, that was open from 6 am to 7 pm.<\/p>\n Because Maricopa County Elections was the single administrator for these elections, voters across all participating jurisdictions were able to return their mail-in ballot or obtain a replacement ballot at locations throughout Maricopa County for the duration of the election. \u00a0Hours of operation for all locations were posted online.<\/p>\n On Election Day, voters were to return their ballot by 7pm, either via ballot replacement center or ballot drop box, and we directed them to visit locations.maricopa.vote to learn more. If someone visited the website at 4:31 or 6:45 on Election Day and looked up the PVUSD ballot drop box, it would have been highlighted in red with the word closed. If they visited before 4:30 that day, it would have noted when the location would close.<\/p>\n We strive to provide as much information as possible, so voters are informed about their options.<\/p>\n Still, she did not answer the questions asked of her: \u201cWhy were people sent to locations that were closed to vote on\u00a0election day? Are you aware of reports that people were driving to 3\u00a0or 4 different locations and also being sent to the closed location in PV after [Maricopa County] staff told them to go there?\u201d<\/strong> Instead, she appears to blame the voters. However, as The Gateway Pundit reported<\/a>, Maricopa County is accused of sending voters to closed locations when reached by phone<\/strong>. Additionally, instructions given by the County explicitly<\/strong>\u00a0state that you may \u201cvisit any voting location no later than 7 p.m. on November 7<\/strong> to cast a ballot in person.\u201d This sounds like misinformation.<\/p>\n After Fields provided the contact for Liewer, he\u00a0filled Conradson in on his role with the office and notified us that he wasn\u2019t in the office during Tuesday\u2019s botched election. Unsatisfied with the conversation, Conradson asked again why the communications director for Maricopa County, who testified in court that we should be contacting him, wouldn\u2019t want us to have a record of exactly what he said. Moseley got somewhat nasty, saying something along the lines of,\u00a0\u201cI\u2019ll be somewhat blunt with you. You write things that aren\u2019t true\u2026 I get it; I was a broadcast journalist<\/strong>\u2026 You write things without coming to the county for information\u2026 you call us liars and criminals without a court ruling,\u201d etc. Moseley also said we \u201cdon\u2019t follow the rules.\u201d<\/p>\n What would have been better proof of what he said than a recording? Why do you\u00a0think he declined to be recorded? Is he planning to lie about what he said? These are\u00a0all mysteries to this publication.<\/p>\n Of course, Maricopa County\u2019s attorneys also pressed Conradson on the stand last November, asking whether or not he came to the county for information when writing stories that we already have firsthand information about, including records from the County or footage from the County\u2019s own cameras. Why would we speak to the County when they\u2019re going to be uncooperative, tell us that firsthand information is incorrect, call us conspiracy theorists, or call us liars as Fields Moseley did when we followed his free-speech \u201crules.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n When Conradson pointed out that mainstream media outlets like CNN\u2013who follow the County\u2019s \u201crules\u201d by giving glory to everything the County officials say\u2013have been calling Trump a criminal for nearly a decade, Moseley could only respond, \u201cI don\u2019t work for CNN.\u201d Still, he did convey that he \u201cget[s] it\u201d while referencing his broadcast journalism career and accusing The Gateway Pundit of lying to our audience\u2026<\/p>\n He also deflected to the failed excuse they used in court, saying that they issued 500 media credentials to media outlets in 2022, including FOX and Newsmax\u2013sources that have gone somewhat quiet on the fraudulent elections. A few moments before this, while giving Conradson the aforementioned description of his role in the office, Fields had mentioned how our reporting on\u00a0\u201ccertain types of information\u201d is noteworthy.<\/p>\n Have they not learned that they cannot discriminate against journalists based on content?<\/strong><\/p>\n When Conradson confronted the accusations and asked him to point out the lies, Moseley dug through Conradson\u2019s Twitter for several moments<\/strong> to find something he disagreed with<\/strong>. Clearly, the government disagreeing with something is grounds to say it\u2019s a lie, according to these people. How many times has the government been caught lying?<\/p>\n Here is the exact tweet he read aloud over the phone:<\/p>\n Maricopa County is rigging another election. These crooks did it in 2020, 2022, 2023, and will do it again in 2024 if the Dems fail to jail the leading opposition candidate https:\/\/t.co\/jCrW0P29ew<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Jordan Conradson\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 (@ConradsonJordan) November 8, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n\n Conradson then told him that he believes it\u2019s 100% true, and we have not seen any evidence to prove<\/strong> otherwise after thoroughly investigating elections in Maricopa County. Moseley quickly asked if there was a court ruling to prove this. So, Conradson mentioned the obvious: 60% of machines failed on election day in 2022, and Maricopa County does almost no ID verification for mail-in ballots\u2013which Conradson personally witnessed inspecting ballots through a legal public records request. \u201cLooks like a rigged election to me,\u201d Conradson expressed. To our surprise, Moseley repeatedly asked where these signature records came from and didn\u2019t seem to believe Conradson until he told Moseley, \u201cAsk your friend, Rey Valenzuela, about it.\u201d Valenzuela is the Elections Director for early voting in Maricopa, and he personally gave Conradson access to inspect ballot envelopes.<\/p>\n See our reporting on a minute fraction of the fraudulent mail-in ballots and signatures that Maricopa County approved and Conradson\u00a0later inspected at the Maricopa County Tabulation and Election Center here<\/a>. The County has now revoked our ability to inspect or reproduce mail-in ballot signatures at the advice of their attorneys.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n While scrolling through Conradson\u2019s Twitter page, Moseley would have likely scrolled past a later tweet, found below, where Conradson actually accused Maricopa County of a crime and said they should be in prison. This is the very thing Moseley had just raised an issue with. This probably wouldn\u2019t help his argument, though, as spreading election disinformation is a crime punishable by seven months in prison, according to the precedent set in pro-Trump memer Douglas Mackey<\/a>\u2019s case.<\/p>\n So I hear that @MaricopaVote<\/a> put out incorrect information about voting and interfered in the Tuesday\u2019s election again<\/p>\n Time to put them all in prison for 7 months on speech crimes just like they did to Douglas Mackey for his MEMES! @stephen_richer<\/a> @billgatesaz<\/a> @maricopacounty<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n \u2014 Jordan Conradson\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 (@ConradsonJordan) November 8, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n\n This interaction shows that Maricopa County continues to maintain the idea that if we disagree with the government\u2019s position on anything, we\u2019re automatically lying.<\/p>\n If our information is incorrect, as they claim, why are they afraid to explain what we got wrong and answer some questions?<\/strong><\/p>\n The post Uncooperative Maricopa County Stonewalls The Gateway Pundit AGAIN After Their Latest Election Interference<\/a> appeared first on The Gateway Pundit<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Maricopa County 2022 election machine failure locations As Maricopa County faces scrutiny for another third-world election, its communications<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20551","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"\n
