Pennsylvania Court Issues Stunning Ruling on Dominion Voting Machines
Plus: A big development in a "RICO" lawsuit facing the voting machine company.
Voting machine companies are a threat to U.S. elections because they are secretive, for-profit, and unaccountable bodies at the heart of our democratic processes. Before the 2020 election, the American left said as much. Repeatedly.
But times have changed. As I recently pointed out while hosting an Election Integrity Panel at the TPUSA event AmericaFest in Phoenix: “The left has been using a lot of private companies & institutions as a way… to shield them from accountability.”
Watch the “Election Integrity: Our Top Priority” panel with Congressmen Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ), and Rep. Louis Gohmert (R-TX) below:
A number of court cases facing Dominion Voting Systems, one of the largest voting machine companies in the country, represent our best attempt to hold this cog in the U.S. election machine accountable to the American people.
Most importantly, state officials in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania who sought to block transparency in the 2020 election were handed a defeat on Thursday. The case directly bears on holding Dominion Voting Systems accountable.
"The Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania has ruled in favor of The Amistad Project and Fulton County, Pennsylvania, allowing the county to send its Dominion voting machines to the State Senate for inspection on January 10," the group stated in a press release.
“The court recognized that it was improper to demand that the county – which owns the machines, and has the responsibility of running the election along with the legislature – can’t determine whether the machines worked properly,” said Phill Kline, director of The Amistad Project. “As the judge noted, there’s no justification for preventing the county from looking at their own machines.”
Pennsylvania’s attorney general and secretary of state had sued to prevent the inspection, the press release notes. It was originally scheduled for December 22, but the judge determined that it must be allowed to proceed, "with a short delay to allow experts from both sides to come up with a formal protocol for the inspection."
“Executive branch officials were trying to stop the inspection altogether, but the judge did not grant their emergency motion to stop the inspection,” explained Amistad Project attorney Tom King. “They did not go to court seeking a delay; they sought to stop it, and they lost.”
“The court recognized that it was improper to demand that the county – which owns the machines, and has the responsibility of running the election along with the legislature – can’t determine whether the machines worked properly,” Amistad Project Director Phill Kline said. “As the judge noted, there’s no justification for preventing the county from looking at their own machines.”
Well said.
Meanwhile, Dominion has been waging an all-out campaign to silence its critics, according to a lawsuit filed in a Colorado district court. The lawsuit even claims violations of RICO statutes, which are typically invoked in lawsuits against gangs and the mafia.
