(The Epoch Times)—The conservative vote-monitoring organization True the Vote’s challenges to Georgia voters’ eligibility didn’t amount to voter intimidation in the 2020 election, a federal judge ruled on Jan. 2.
U.S. District Judge Steve C. Jones, in a 145-page ruling that was issued a little less than two months after the end of a civil trial, found that the defendants didn’t violate the Voting Rights Act.
Texas-based True the Vote, its founder Catherine Engelbrecht, and several others had raised questions about whether 364,000 Georgia voters were improperly registered because their voter registrations conflicted with their mailing addresses.
Georgia law requires that voter challenges be made by other voters living in the same county. As two Georgia runoff elections, which were believed could determine control of the U.S. Senate, approached on Jan. 5, 2021, the group narrowed its challenge list to about 39,000, eliminating those with a legitimate reason to live elsewhere, such as college students and active-duty military. They then found volunteers to make challenges in about 40 of Georgia’s 159 counties.
The runoff elections contributed to the charged atmosphere leading up to the Electoral College vote in Washington on Jan. 6, 2021, when thousands of President Donald Trump supporters marched in protest. The march turned into a breach of the U.S. Capitol, which congressional Democrats have since sought to characterize as an “insurrection.”
Fair Fight Inc., a group formed by former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, sued on behalf of several plaintiffs. The two groups battled it out for seven days, ending in early November 2023 in a nonjury trial in Jones’s courtroom in Gainesville, Georgia.
Coffee the Christian way: Promised Grounds
Aside from Ms. Engelbrecht, the defendants included two data analysts, Mark Davis and Derek Somerville, mailing list printer Mark Williams, and two others, Ron Johnson and James Cooper.
Judge Jones expressed some reservations in his decision.
“Having heard the evidence presented and the arguments made by the Parties, the Court maintains its prior concerns about the manner Defendants utilized (Georgia law) to challenge individual voters. The Court, however, ultimately concludes that, as a legal matter, Plaintiffs have not carried their burden to show a violation of Section 11(b) (of the Voting Rights Act.) Accordingly, the Court enters judgment in favor (of) Defendants.
“There is no evidence that Defendants attempted to make any of the voters in this case feel timid or fearful, or that they experienced any actual reasonable intimidation,” the judge wrote in his opinion.
True the Vote’s advertising, podcasts, and press releases about the challenges, he wrote, weren’t intimidating in the way that direct calls to their telephone numbers would be.
Cameron Powell, one of the defense attorneys, told The Epoch Times in an email that he was on vacation and hadn’t had a chance to read the decision. He said earlier, though, that whatever the verdict, he thought an appeal was likely.
Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
I have been involved, off and on, with the Election Integrity Movement for 25 years on the tech side and until quite recently, never heard of these two characters!!!
Anyone wish to volunteer what they have accomplished to date OTHER THAN DIVERTING the attention of many away from the voting system companies and CISA/EI–ISAC???
Thw “2000 Mules” was funded by controlled opposition Salem Media, which for years forbade mention of the Soros name on their web sites! He was sacrosanct to Salem Media for some reason?!?!
“2000 Mules” NEVER once even mentioned Dominion—connected BallotTrax nor the backstory, or any story?!?!
Seems like useless political theater to confuse and befuddle the rubes!
maybe you should try something else since voter fraud is getting worse over the years and what you’re doing obviously isn’t working!
If you can’t see voter fraud in these cases, you are blind. If you haven’t heard of these two people you are deaf.
