Trump Campaign calls for action over Secretary Griswold security breach in Colorado

By Rocky Mountain Voice Staff In a letter addressed to Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold, representatives for Donald J. Trump for President 2024, Inc. have raised alarms over a reported disclosure of BIOS passwords for voting system equipment across the state. According to the letter, these passwords have been publicly accessible from at least August 2024 through October 24, 2024, without public notification from Griswold’s office regarding the security risk. The letter suggests that the passwords’ exposure presents an opportunity for unauthorized access to modify the Trusted Build of voting systems—a concern intensified by the upcoming election. The Trump campaign’s letter, issued through the Gessler Blue law firm, details the potential implications of the breach, emphasizin...

Social media erupts as Biden bites multiple babies dressed in costumes

By Julianna Frieman | The Daily Caller President Joe Biden skipped the candy and went straight for the baby Wednesday night when he appeared to bite multiple infants dressed up for the annual Halloween celebration at the White House. Viral video shows the president appear to chomp on a child wearing a chicken costume at the Biden family’s last trick-or-treat event at the White House. Theme music from the movie “Jaws” was heard playing as the baby, held by a woman wearing a long red dress, squirmed after Biden bowed his head and made contact. “President Trump is mingling with garbage men at his rally in Wisconsin. Meanwhile, Joe Biden is literally BITING BABIES at the White House Halloween Party,” X user @nicksorter wrote in response to the video. “WTF IS THIS TIMELINE?” ...

Biden-Harris admin declares ‘it’s time’ to ‘ban assault weapons’ after Kamala tries to say she’s pro-2A

By Thomas Stevenson| The Post Millennial Despite Vice President Kamala Harris sending the message throughout her 2024 campaign that she is pro-Second Amendment, the Biden-Harris administration has declared that now is the time to "ban" so-called "assault weapons." The Biden-Harris White House account posted on social media on Wednesday, "It's time" with a graphic saying "ban assault weapons."   Harris, however, has tried to paint herself as a supporter of gun rights since she has hit the campaign trail. In her 60 minutes interview: “I have a Glock and I’ve had it for quite some time,” Harris said. “My background is in law enforcement, so there you go.” She was then asked if she fired it ever, to which Harris laughed, claiming, “Yes, of course I have, at a shooting ...

Republican Hartsook and Democrat Nilemo talk housing, crime, presidential preference in HD44

By Iris Pixler | Colorado Politics In House District 44 for the Colorado General Assembly, Republican Anthony Hartsook looks to continue his work by being elected to a second term, while Democratic opponent Alyssa Nilemo aims to win the newly redrawn district this November. No matter who wins, both candidates face a shifting political landscape in Douglas County and continued rapid growth. At first glance, you might think they have little in common. Still, Hartsook and Nilemo are fighting to represent the new district encompassing Parker, Stonegate, Sierra Ridge, Meridian Village, and Stepping Stone in Douglas County.

Harris campaign recruits foreign volunteers, tells noncitizens how to skirt donation rules

By Reddit Lies | The Federalist Part three of an investigation into how the Harris-Walz campaign is manipulating social media sites to artificially boost their popularity, spread election disinformation, and skirt election laws. In the previous installments of this investigation into how the Harris-Walz presidential campaign is dishonestly manipulating online platforms, I noted the existence of a Discord server where campaign employees coordinate with a volunteer army to flood social media sites with campaign propaganda. The volunteers also vote en masse on social media to artificially boost Harris-Walz content or downvote content that is harmful to their campaign. Not only is this deceptive and misleading to voters, it’s a clear violation of these websites’ Terms...

Caldara: Colorado’s political future under Proposition 131

By Jon Caldara | Commentary, Complete Colorado Out of the 14 statewide ballot questions, which by the way ties the record, it’s Proposition 131 that would bring the most political change and disruption with its jungle primaries and ranked-choice voting general elections. Assuming voter fatigue doesn’t keep voters from reaching this down-ballot issue, it’s the last of the statewide questions, it should pass. This is a prediction not an endorsement. It will pass because of its more than $15 million in funding, and because there is no effective or funded campaign against it, and generally voters are frustrated with both major parties.

Ballot measure 2C in Wheat Ridge would lower building height limits at old Colorado hospital

By Karen Morfitt | CBS Colorado The old 100 acre campus of a hospital in the Colorado city of Wheat Ridge is empty and on the verge of development. But before that happens, voters are deciding in the general election next week whether or not to change the city's height requirements for that area. Ballot measure 2C asks Wheat Ridge voters to consider making changes to the city's current height requirements at the old Lutheran Hospital campus. "It actually asks two specific things," Community Development Director Lauren Mikulak said. "We're asking to lower the height further on the perimeter, so from 35 feet to 30 where we have new development potentially adjacent to existing neighborhoods. READ THE FULL STORY AT CBS COLORADO

Gilpin County election watcher dismissed while observing signature verification

By Rachel Saurer | Fox 31 News The Gilpin County Clerk dismissed an election watcher on Tuesday who was watching the signature verification process after a disagreement on how close the watcher could be to the poll worker’s station. An election watcher is a fairly new addition to the ballot counting process, born from former President Donald Trump’s proven-to-be-false claims of election fraud in 2020. According to the Secretary of State’s office, an election watcher is “an eligible voter who has been appointed by an authorized appointing entity to witness and verify the conduct of an election.” Election watchers also must complete a 10-minute training course. They are essentially another layer of security and transparency in the ballot-counting process. READ THE FULL STORY AT F...

The $16 million effort to overcome GOP skepticism on early voting in Pennsylvania

By Audrey Fahlberg | National Review Back in April, the Republican State Leadership Committee began featuring high-profile digital and peer-to-peer ads urging Republican voters to embrace mail-in ballots. “If you’re working a double shift or family responsibilities prevent you from voting on Election Day, Joe Biden wins,” Donald Trump Jr. says in one of the 15-second spots. “Pennsylvania, I need you to join the mail-in voting list today.” On the ground here Monday evening, the former president’s eldest son made an in-person plea to Keystone State voters — bank your vote early before Pennsylvania’s October 29 early and vote-by-mail deadline. Don Jr. is one of many high-profile surrogates that a coalition of Republican spending groups — the Sentinel Action Fund, Repub...

House GOP braces for leadership changes in 2024 election aftermath

By Cami Mondeaux | Washington Examiner House Republicans could see a shakeup in party leadership after the 2024 elections depending on which party wins the House majority and which presidential candidate claims the White House.  Republicans are set to hold their leadership elections on Nov. 13 to choose the highest-ranking members of their conference, a source familiar confirmed to the Washington Examiner. The House is then expected to finalize its party rules for the next Congress two days later.  "When they said I’d look thinner, I said in that case, I’ll wear it onstage," he joked. "I may never wear a blue jacket again."   The intraparty election will come just one week after the 2024 election, when House races could be undecided and control of ...
