A former candidate for the Arizona House of Representatives, District 17, Liz Harris, shows citizens how to be an effective activist and get results. Starting in December, she managed to call to action over 800 bi-partisan, unpaid volunteers throughout the state with her It Smells Funny website form where she asks people to volunteer their time to help with election integrity research. "It was truly a grassroots effort," said Harris.

During a Dec. 29 interview with HUB radio Phoenix, Harris explained how she decided to "take a look at a list of people over the age of ninety" from the state of Arizona to verify whether they voted. While her initial list was a small one, she found that about one-third of those on the list were indeed deceased. She then requested a bigger list.

Initially, she found that while there were deceased voters who had "voted," it wasn't a large enough number to make a difference. However, as she looked through the list, she noticed that "one out of five people didn't exist in Arizona or the National Database couldn't even find a record of them." She then asked mathematician and investment advisor, Bobby Piton, to review the list. According to Harris, he found "irregularities and abnormalities in [the] voter rolls that were just stunning." He found about 120,000 to 306,000 "fake people" on the rolls.

One of the most important findings was that "from 1998 until today, Arizona's population has grown by approximately 44%, yet the voter rolls increased by 200%." Harris and her volunteers went door-to-door looking at all the people who had "suspect names, addresses that are suspect... a laundry list of irregularities" sourced from the random sample that Bobby Piton pulled together for the volunteers to use in their efforts. He estimated he found "between 160,000 to 460,000 illegal ballots."

Among other things, Piton's findings report that the volunteers knocked on over 1400 doors and "touched" about 700 people. Harris then collected, indexed, and notarized all the affidavits and put them in huge binders.

Training

Harris conducted forty-minute training meetings every day at 7:00, 11:00, and 7:00 via Zoom, setting each volunteer up with an app that targeted households to canvass. She is careful to emphasize that the people whose homes they knocked on did nothing wrong. It is a "systematic issue," she explained.

The respondents were given a declaration to fill out—or a neighbor completes it if the house is abandoned. The affidavits are sent to volunteers at the end of the day and then filed and indexed. As of the end of December, she and her volunteers had collected "well over 1500 affidavits." She explained that there were more than 1400 doors because some of the affidavits came from places like apartment complexes where a leasing manager confirmed names of people who had never lived there.

Colleges and Universities were also able to confirm those who "had never attended the school." For example, at Grand Canyon University, the volunteers found many 80 and 90- year-olds who were registered to vote there but, in fact, were not in attendance.

They found that voting out of P.O. Boxes and commercial addresses was a "rampant problem" there. Other places canvassed were; "vacant lots, hotels, county buildings, apartment complexes with no corresponding apartment number, abandoned properties, non-existent addresses, homes for elderly, churches, sports arenas, homeless shelters, native American reservations with addresses that were listed as "dummy 1,2,3." Homeless shelters and churches can be valid addresses for registered voters but not in the numbers found.

The categories denoted were; "fabricated address, not at this address, deceased, out of state voter, non-U.S. citizens, convicted felons, double voters"—to name just a few.

Election Integrity Fight in Arizona

The Arizona State Senate has been fighting for weeks to get the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to turn over voting machines and ballots from the November election. The Senate issued subpoenas, all of which were ignored. Arizona voters have jammed the phone lines demanding a forensic audit because many believe the election was stolen. Arizona State Senate President and Arizona Republican Party Chair, Kelli Ward, have been fighting for a fair, objective forensic audit of the vote. On Monday, Republicans who control the Senate fell one vote short of holding in contempt the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors for failing to surrender the ballots and machines. Republican Sen. Paul Boyer broke ranks and voted with the Democrats.

Ward explained the timeline of events here:

In her interview with Steve Bannon on Feb. 4, Harris lays out what she thinks should happen next.

  • Gain access to the original 2.1 million ballots that are currently locked up, including but not limited to early ballots, election day ballots, and provisional ballots.
  • Deep dive into election log files, election settings, accounts and tokens, windows servers and desktops, Dominion Voting Systems Equipment, Dominion Network, access to logins for the Dominion records, election systems and software, and all voter rolls.

Harris says that Arizona is the perfect place to look at ballots because it is one of the few that still has intact ballots. She says this is not a partisan issue. "Let's get to the bottom of how voter fraud actually works from A-Z...The Arizona State Senate needs to be united." Everyone needs to jump on board and agree to a deep dive. "We have to be united and say election integrity is important...there is no voter suppression here. We want every vote to count, and we want to make sure there are no shenanigans."
