  • Fact Check: Tabulator Trouble In Maricopa County Was NOT Proof Of Voter Fraud

    Fact Check

    Was the fact that Maricopa County, Arizona, experienced trouble with some of its tabulators early on Election Day proof of voter fraud? No, that's not true: There was a back-up plan in place to make sure every vote was counted. In the case of a problem with a precinct tabulator, a voter could place his or her ballot in a…

  • Fact Check: GPS Data From Cellphones Does NOT Facilitate Election Fraud

    Fact Check

    Does GPS data from voters' cellphones help election fraudsters identify those who were registered but did not vote so the fraudsters can cast illegal ballots in the name of those people? Should voters avoid bringing cellphones to polling places on Election Day for this reason? No, that's not true: Election workers most commonly rely on voters' signatures to verify absentee…

  • Fact Check: Arizona Woman Did NOT Plead Guilty To Role In Supposed Ballot Trafficking Ring From 2020 Presidential Election

    Fact Check

    Did a Yuma County, Arizona, woman plead guilty to a role in a sophisticated ballot trafficking ring that supposedly stole the 2020 presidential election from Donald Trump? No, that's not true: Guillermina Fuentes did plead guilty on June 2, 2022, to "one count of Ballot Abuse, a Class 6 Felony, for her role in an August 2020 Primary Election 'ballot…

  • Fact Check: 19,000 Late, Invalid Ballots Were NOT Counted in 2020 Arizona Election

    Fact Check

    Were 19,000 late, invalid ballots counted in the 2020 Arizona election? No, that's not true: An article making the claim relies on a report that appears to misconstrue what a particular type of receipt shows. It's a record of when election officials in Maricopa County, Arizona, gave early ballot envelopes to a vendor to be scanned, not a receipt of…

  • Fact Check: NO Evidence Law Enforcement Raided Arizona Nonprofits In '2000 Mules' Ballot Trafficking Investigation

    Fact Check

    Is there proof of law enforcement raids on multiple Arizona nonprofit organizations in a "2000 Mules"-driven ballot trafficking investigation? No, there's no evidence that's true: Reporting by The Arizona Republic puts two uniformed officers and two plainclothes investigators from the Arizona attorney general's office at the office of just one nonprofit: Comité de Bien Estar in San Luis in May…

  • Fact Check: '2000 Mules' Does NOT Prove 2020 Election Was Stolen -- Documentary Contains Holes, Assumptions

    Fact Check

    Does the movie "2000 Mules" prove the 2020 presidential election was stolen by voter fraud? No, that's not true: The film's producers promote a theory that 2,000 people in five key swing states collected and delivered hundreds of thousands of absentee ballots on behalf of a "cartel" to throw the election in favor of Joe Biden. The cellphone geotracking data…

    Fact Check

    Does this post lead to an article about some type of legal issue concerning an actor? Did the actor lend their name and endorsement to a brand of CBD gummies as "the ultimate pain relief solution"? No, that's not true: This clickbait teaser does not deliver the article that is promised, but to a deceptive website spoofing NBC News. The…

  • Fact Check: Arizona Republican's Estimates Do NOT Document '173,104 Lost Votes and 96,389 Ghost Votes' In 2020 Election

    Fact Check

    Has an Arizona Republican's door-knocking campaign and back-of-the-envelope estimate proved there were "173,104 lost votes and 96,389 ghost votes" in Maricopa County's 2020 election? No, that's not true: Even if every person answering every door told the truth and every canvasser entered their answers correctly, the real estate agent's claim uses rough reckoning, not field-tested methods of extrapolation. The Maricopa…

  • Fact Check: 'Your Wake Up Call' Film Does NOT Back Extraordinary Claims Of Election Hack, Chinese Control, With Commensurately Solid Evidence

    Fact Check

    Was the fifth Mike Lindell election fraud video correct in claiming a major American voting machine company is controlled by Chinese Communist Party investors and that voting machines used in the 2020 election were hacked via the internet? No, the claims were made without accompanying evidence. Federal banking and finance forms fall well short of supporting the claim that Dominion…
