An ostensibly incriminating video is currently circulating online that would seem to show a Pennsylvania poll worker illegally filling out ballots at a polling place, presumably for Joe Biden. This video is not what it appears to be, however.
Captured by camera No. 7 in Delaware County, Penn., the footage depicts a woman filling out ballots for a full hour while others, including a security guard, look on as if nothing out of the ordinary is happening. With everything else going on, this is clear proof of fraud, right? Not exactly.
In this particular case, there is a very innocent explanation for what this woman was doing. Whenever counting machines have trouble reading ballots, poll workers are tasked with filling out new ones by hand in the presence of a witness.
The woman seen in the footage, in other words, was simply ensuring that all of the legal ballots in her precinct were counted, including those that might have gotten smudged or otherwise damaged, making them unreadable by the counting machines.
This would explain why other poll workers were seen looking over her shoulder pretty much the entire time, as well as the security guard who strolled by several times without responding in the way that many who watched and shared the video thought he should.
“I can tell you exactly what this is because I’ve done it,” writes “Kane” for Citizen Free Press.
“This is a ballot that can’t be read by the machine, so someone reads the votes to a second person who records them on a new ballot. It’s done in pairs so there is no fraud. This is how they correct ballots that can’t be read electronically.”
To be clear, the woman filling out the ballots in the video, as well as those watching her, are all under oath. They are bound by law, and by the presence of a camera filming them, to do the right thing or else face serious consequences.
“They are both under oath, one is reading the other is marking,” Kane adds. “They have to say it out loud to allow monitors to verify.”
Two other videos that have also begun circulating as “proof” of voter fraud depict similar scenarios with poll workers redoing ballots to replace those that could not be read by the counting machines.
With so much actual voter fraud taking place that is undeniable, the last thing conservatives and Trump supporters need to be doing is sharing videos like these that only hurt the cause. We must get this right because the world is watching.
The moral of the story is this: Be careful what you share online because if it turns out to be fake news, the left will jump all over it as a gotcha! moment to declare that the right is manufacturing hysteria about voter fraud that the left says does not exist.
Also, be patient because this process is going to take time to sort out. We know that numerous “ballot dumps” happened in the middle of the night after the election in key swing states like Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, and the Trump campaign says it has concrete proof to expose it.
Intelligence expert Steve Pieczenik is also now saying that legitimate mail-in ballots contain a hidden watermark tied to a blockchain code that, upon analysis, will easily expose the illegitimate ones so they can be rooted out of the official count.
On the other hand, it could be the case that the ballots having to be rewritten by hand are among the illegitimate ones that, because they are fake, could not be read by the counting machines. Only time will tell, and we seem to have a whole lot of it ahead of us before a victory is declared.
