• Persons of Color Misused in Election Deception

    In March 2017, Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske signed off on a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in response to a lawsuit filed by the Las Vegas ACLU and Mi Familia Vota Education Fund to enforce the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA) in Nevada.

    “We are grateful for the opportunity to have participated in the cooperative efforts that led to this Memorandum of Understanding,” she said in a statement. “In developing a system that will automatically transmit voter registration information from the Department of Motor Vehicles to county election officials, the parties have significantly improved Nevada’s voter registration process by adding additional efficiencies and safeguards.”

    Under the MOU, the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) had to accept all voter registrations, even from non-citizens and forward them to the county clerk or the registrar of voters, who would then send the applications to the Secretary of State’s (SoS) office. It would then be up to the SoS’s Office to determine if the application was legal.

    The DMV made their role in the process clear in the following portion of this press release:

    “When the DMV receives an application from a customer, it is then transmitted to the appropriate agency, most often a county clerk or registrar’s office, for processing. These locations serve under the Secretary of State’s Office as the officials responsible for determining eligibility and processing voter applications.”

    Shortly after Cegavske announced the memo’s completion, Démos, a progressive think-tank headquartered in New York City, trumpeted the finalization in a statement that read, “The DMV shall provide the appropriate Clerk/Registrar all Voter Registration Applications returned by customers without regard to their completeness.”

    However, according to the NVRA, the only reason the DMV or any pass-through-agency can refuse an application is the lack of a signature, which would render it as incomplete.

  • A Different Kind of Orb

    It was his usual after-dinner walk. Joined by his dog, Chuck Malring weaved his way between the sage and creosote bushes.

    Over the rise, he paused momentarily while the dog sniffed about. Near the base, he discovered thousands of leggy orbs.

    ‘Daddy Long Legs,” he smiled as the dog scurried away, tail tucked between its legs.

    He knew they couldn’t hurt him as he recalled playing with them as a kid. He squatted hoping to touch one.

    The sudden disturbance caused the things to stand as a single unit, making Chuck Malring wish he’d followed his dog down the trail.

  • Nevada’s SoS has History of Avoiding Investigations

    Nevada Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske continues her refusal to investigate any form of possible voter fraud and she began before the 2020 elections were even held.

    Nevada Assemblyman Cameron Miller, a Democrat, claimed to live at the address he listed on the formal election paperwork he swore was truthful. Now its come to light that Miller has been living at his parents’ house.

    At the time of this discovery, his opponent and former police officer Tony Palmer, filed a formal complaint in October 2020, pointing to Miller’s perjury. Cegasvke’s office however claimed their authority to challenge the qualifications for a candidate expired along with their authority to investigate.

    However, the statute of limitation is three-years for such an offense.

    Also in October 2020, Las Vegas Metro Police raided the home of Democrat Assemblyman Alexander Assefa. Along with learning that he didn’t live where he claimed when signing reelection papers, he’s also under investigation for misusing campaign funds.

  • The God of Gifts

    “I really want that old car we saw,” he said.

    “Your new device isn’t enough?” she asked.

    “I want something that I can tinker on,” he said.

    Next morning as he backed from the garage, he saw a large black car, under a red bow, parked across the driveway. The passenger door stood invitingly open.

    Wondering how she’d done it, he leaned in the open door.

    The ribbon wrapped around his mouth and the bench seat collapsed over his body, sucking him into the car before it quietly drove from the neighborhood. It wouldn’t need to feed again for days.

  • The Thing in the Corner

    During a recent tour of Donovan Mill in Gold Hill, Nevada for a newspaper article on the historic mineral processing plant, I heard a disembodied voice say, “Hello!”  While there, I took about one hundred photographs of the place.


    In this one frame, jus’ beyond the large cyanide vats on the second floor, I captured this image. It is tucked back in a dark corner and can only truly be seen when enhanced from color to black and white and by playing with the contrast.

    What the hell is it?

    A case of pareidolia?

    Paranormal entity?

    What do you think?

  • O-Bethlehem

    The lead vessel ‘Dragon ’ dropped from hyper-drive and hovered outside of the thick radiation belt. Navigating the belt would leave the one thousand ship armada visible for a few minutes, but that was the chance that had to be taken if their objective were to be obtained.

    It had been a difficult time on earth as a pandemic had swept the planet. Now the people stood and watched with hope as the glittering light of the Star of Bethlehem came into view for the first time in many years.

    If a reptile could smile, the Commodore would have been beaming.

  • The Real Losers in Nevada’s Voting Fraud

    The Trump campaign may have lost its Nevada court case, but questions about Nevada’s election system remain unanswered.

    The Trump campaign “never once presented sufficient evidence of widespread fraud,” Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford tweeted. “Yes, they spouted nonsense in the media. But they never backed it up in court.”

    Ford and other government officials need to find out what happened, not jump to conclusions based on a preferred political outcome. This, after all, this no longer about Trump, but the integrity of Nevada’s election system.

    However, Nevada’s Department of Motor Vehicles did produced a list of “non-U.S. citizens who obtained identifications,” according to a Trump campaign filing. The campaign then cross-referenced that list with the voter rolls and identified 3,987 non-U.S. citizens who voted.

    Nevada has automatic voter registration, which can register non-citizens who receive driver’s licenses. In 2018, the California DMV announced that it improperly registered around 1,500 non-citizens to vote.

    The court didn’t accept this list because of a timing issue.

    The evidence of double, dead and out-of-state voters also deserves similar consideration. One such piece of evidence and again failed to make the cut is the Supplemental to Declaration of Jesse Kamzol, dated Dec. 2, 2020:

    • 6,360 positive matches were made from within the DMV to the Voter File.
    • 6,136 (96.5%) of those matched voter registration records have voter registration records that are ‘Active.’
    • 3,987 (62.7 %) of those matched voter registration records voted/cast ballots that appear to have been counted, meaning, they are not shown as being provisional or rejected mail ballots per data collected from the Secretary of State (SoS) Barbara Cegavske and/or County Elections Divisions.
    • 4,546 (71.5%) of those matched voter registration records have appeared to have attempted to vote, including provisional votes and rejected mail ballots per data collected from the SoS and/or County Elections Divisions.

    The campaign also based the claim on database comparisons. Its expert said his analysis had a less than five percent margin of error.

    And while District Court Judge James T. Russell refused the DMV list, he did rely on Michael Herron, an elections expert for the state. Herron looked at Nevada election statistics from the 2012 election through the 2020 primary and concluded, “the illegal vote rate totaled at most only 0.00054 percent,” according to the ruling.

    To reach that number, he examined reported cases of election fraud, then examined voter fraud literature from across the U.S. and concluded the Trump campaign’s allegations were highly unlikely.

    The battle over vote counts did not end with the Trump campaign’s court loss.

    Clark County, Nevada Registrar Joe Gloria found another 15 votes for Ross Miller, a Democrat, in the race for Clark County Commissioner District C. Those votes were all in favor of Miller, while his opponent, Republican Stavros Anthony received nothing.

    On Friday, Dec. 11, officials with the Clark County Election Department said Miller had defeated Anthony by a total of 30 votes, up from the previous margin of 10 votes. But an email in court documents filed the same day shows the difference was actually 15 votes.

    “We have finished our review of the recount and were able to identify the issue we shared with you on Friday,” the email to the campaigns from Clark County Registrar Joe Gloria said. “They were in fact duplicate batches of ballots that were read into the system. With assistance from our vendor we were able to identify the batches and have them removed.”

    Stavros Anthony’s said in a statement “District C election is a disaster. I’m up by 2700 Election Day. Weeks later down 10 with 139 discrepancies. Election director cannot determine a winner. Clark County Commission orders a special election. Political pressure forces certification. Now 74 new ballots in a recount.”

    Gloria eventually admitted to the Clark County Commission in November that with ‘139 discrepancies’ he couldn’t declare a winner. The Commission had been debating where or not to order a run-off when the ballots found.

    As for the Clark County Election Department, where them majority of the alleged fraud took place, it doesn’t have anyone to investigate fraud. Instead, it refers all concerns to the secretary of state’s office, which has one part-time investigator for these issues.

    At this time, the recount vote totals for Clark County Commissioner District C are Ross Miller, 76,592 and Stavros Anthony with 76,577. The Commission has certified the election win of Miller, despite the lingering questions of integrity.

    In the end, it’s the citizens of Nevada who lose when election fraud is noted but ignored.
