For years, the propaganda press has tried to dismiss concerns about
legitimate fraud associated with mail-in ballots.

“Yes, voter fraud happens,” The Associated Press’s Ali Swenson wrote in October. “But it’s rare, and election offices have safeguards to catch
it.” A few weeks later, The Associated Press released a video entitled
“Why voter fraud isn’t really a problem in U.S. elections,” with a subhead claiming there are “many safeguards to detect it.”

Meanwhile, CNN posted a video entitled “Trump stokes fear over voter fraud
in Pennsylvania. CNN fact-checks his claims.” Notably, the subhead for the video acknowledged that officials identified “incidents of suspected voter registration fraud.”

But the thing that “rarely” happens happened again (and no, Ms. Swenson,
none of the “safeguards” worked).

Pennsylvania’s vulnerable online voter registration system allowed three Democrats to try and “steal the 2021” general election for the Mayor of Millbourne after they gamed the online voter portal to fraudulently
register nearly three dozen non-residents.

Mohammed Nurul Hasan, Mohammed Munsur Ali and Mohammed Rafikul Islam
allegedly conspired with each other and “persons known and unknown to the
grand jury to steal the 2021 general election for Mayor of Millbourne” for Hasan by using the state’s online voter registration portal to “change the voter registration addresses” for non-Millbourne residents to “locations
within Millbourne,” according to a grand jury indictment.

The defendants then allegedly used the portal to request mail-in ballots
for the non-Millbourne residents, illegally filled the ballots out on
their behalf, and submitted the ballots to the county board of elections.
The voters were allegedly informed by Hasan and Ali that “they would not
get in trouble as long as they did not vote in another election in
November 2021,” according to the indictment.

Hasan ultimately lost the election 165 to 138, according to the
indictment.

So how was it done? Hasan, Ali and Islam simply used the state’s online
voter registration (PAOVR) website.

At the time of the May 18, 2021 primary, there were “approximately 549 registered voters in Millbourne,” according to the indictment. Less than
six months later, by the time the general election was held, there were
578 registered voters. According to the indictment, “most of the
additional registered voters were people who did not live in Millbourne
and had previously been registered to vote in locations outside of
Millbourne, but whose voter registration addresses had been changed to Millbourne addresses by someone accessing the PAOVR website.”

“Any person who accessed the PAOVR website could either submit a new voter registration application or edit an existing voter’s registration
information as long as the person knew certain personal identification information about the voter,” the indictment states. “A person who
provided such information about a voter on the PAOVR website could change
the voter’s name, address, and/or party affiliation, and/or request a
mail-in or absentee ballot.”

“If the person accessing the PAOVR website requested a mail-in or absentee ballot for the voter, such a person could ask for the ballot to be mailed
to any address in the world,” according to the indictment.

Hasan, Ali, and Islam were each charged with conspiracy, false information
in registering, and fraudulent voter registration.

Despite claims of robust “safeguards,” the reality is that the system
allowed three individuals to exploit its weaknesses and engage in
fraudulent activity, undermining the integrity of the 2021 mayoral
election. The fact that such manipulation was even possible raises serious concerns about the state’s online voting infrastructure and underscores
the dangers of mass mail-in balloting.
