Press Release 8/02/2024
August 2, 2024
Dear Secretary of State Jacobsen:
Lisa Bennett and David Nims, both Montana citizens, are submitting this complaint to Montana’s Secretary of State on behalf of United Sovereign Americans.
The most serious complaint is that the 2024 primary election was certified, despite the fact the turnout for many counties reported on your website (ballots counted) exceeds the number of voters who voted, per your very own voting history data. If the post-election audit discrepancy criterion of 0.5% is a reasonable criterion to apply to the ballots/voters difference, only 18 of our 56 counties would meet this criterion. In fact, the discrepancies in 7 counties exceed this criterion by 10x, that is, the number of ballots counted exceeds the number of voters who voted by more than 5%, the worst being 27%!
If it is determined that the number of voters whose vote was counted in the 2024 primary as found in the SOS voter history files is accurate, then any ballots counted which are over and above this number represents dilution of the legal votes. It is a settled legal principle that dilution of a qualified voter’s vote is a form of disenfranchisement, Ex parte Siebold, 100 U.S. 371 (1879), United States v. Saylor, 322U.S. 385 (1944), Reynolds v. Sims, 377 U.S. 533 (1964). Thus, immediate action and leadership by the SOS and her staff is required to investigate the causes of these discrepancies, to consider the impact these discrepancies may have had on the results of the 2024 primary election, to put rules and procedures in place to avoid these discrepancies in the future, and to provide relevant standards and criteria that must be met for election certification in the 2024 general election and future elections.
As can be seen from the attached summary (which includes the issue discussed above), there are many other issues that indicate a serious disregard for statutory laws and standards on both the federal and state level, and could disguise actual election fraud in Montana during the 2022 general election and the 2024 primary election.
The sources of the issues must be identified and remedied. If you choose to dismiss this complaint, since the general election is rapidly approaching, we will be forced to consider further action.
We have raised many of these issues repeatedly and have received little meaningful response. While we do not know who is responsible for these anomalies, we do know who has to date failed to review and to investigate these issues in a timely manner, which could well involve potential crimes, and who certified election results contrary to standards for error, accuracy, and compliance.
We hope that this dismissive attitude will not continue, and that the reported facts will be recognized, investigated, explained and/or otherwise dealt with. We offer our help in any way that could be of assistance.
Our concern, obviously, is that the resulting election certifications apparently were made despite objective, factual data raising concerns that the state had, and still has, massively compromised systems, and that the certifications may represent serious disregard of the voters’ civil and constitutional rights within the state.
We ask for a response of intentions from the Secretary of State within ten days. We have attached our summary report, explaining the sources of the data and the analysis methods used.
Upon request, information associated with all voters relevant to the reported issues will be provided.
Sincerely,
Lisa Bennett, Carbon County, David Nims, Silver Bow County
From Referenced Summary:
Montana Issues Of Concern:
1. Serious irregularities and potentially fraudulent voter activity.
2. Voter roll maintenance is seriously lacking, which facilitates the ability for unqualified voting.
3. Voter’s voting status was altered post-election
4. Clearly erroneous or inaccurate data erodes confidence in all data, and is not in conformance with the duty of election officials to maintain accurate voter roll information.
