This Week – Chasing Ballots: The How in the How to Win

This week it’s all about taking action. After what we saw with the wrongful prosecution and corruption of the justice system in New York leading to a fake felony conviction, the gloves are off. And tin 2024, winning is the only option.

But to do that, it takes strategies, action, and the will to win.

This week we talk with Matthew Martinez, the Chase the Vote Strategist for Turning Point Action — to get the ballots across the finish line this year. Matthew was the field director for the Kari Lake for governor campaign and is now working with Turning Point Action (the political arm of Turning Point USA) to spearhead the effort to get Republican ballots in the ballot box that otherwise not be cast.

Chasing ballots is not the same as ballot harvesting. Ballot harvesting is when someone goes and collects ballots including nightmare voter fraud situations, where someone goes and collects dozens if not hundreds of ballots from places like retirement homes. Where sometimes the voter isn’t even aware that someone took their ballot and voted for them.

Tune in to hear how Turning Point has changed the approach to getting the vote out. Including technology anyone can use to make it simple. Working closely in neighborhoods, he updates us on all the new data that Turning Point has accumulated for all states and how to use it. He also discusses how Republicans lost elections, through unforced errors that Democrats have known how to get around for years.

Why Chasing Ballots?

As the field director for the Kari Lake campaign, Matthew saw firsthand just how a few more votes per precinct in Arizona would have meant a republican governor, and a republican Secretary of State. Just 10 more republican votes turning in their ballots. That’s all.

In Oregon, we had a similar situation. A total of just 4,200 votes across six house districts would have flipped Oregon’s house to Republican control. And how different would the legislative session have looked this year with Republicans in charge of the budget? In one district, a mere 182 votes would have flipped that district. This year, winning is the only option. And this week’s show will help people get those reluctant votes in and across the finish line.

HD 7 (Lane County): 1,208 more votes would have flipped that seat to the Republican
HD 40 (Clackamas): just 182 more votes would have flipped the seat
HD 48 (Clackamas and Multnomah): 618 votes
HD 49 (Multnomah): just 904 votes — in deep blue Multnomah!
HD 50 (Multnomah): only 860 more votes — again, in Multnomah
HD 53 (Deschutes): Only 510 more votes

This was completely doable. The question is, why wasn’t it done?

Chasing Ballots Trainings Are Available

Urge your republican party county chair to chase these ballots. (Mr. Martinez’s contact information is below.)

Turning Point Action is willing to send representatives to do boots on the ground training to use their app and to teach people how to chase ballots by building relationships with their neighbors. All your county chair has to do is ask for help.

Get the Turning Point Action Chasing Ballots App! Just head to your phone’s App Store and look for “TPAction.” And, yes, we have checked it out and it does work for Oregon to find those reluctant republican votes.

And if they won’t? Then you need to take the lead.

Please feel free to reach out to us here at I Spy Radio (info @ ispyradio . com) if you or your county chair would like to help coordinate bringing turning point action representatives to Oregon.

This Week – Elections & Election Theft, Part 2

We welcome back Don Powers, who is part of a team looking at voter fraud and election theft around the country — and what is happening right here in Oregon. Don Powers is the co-chair of election integrity for the Oregon Republican Party (ORP). Odd, though, that the ORP doesn’t believe election theft happened in 2020 and doesn’t want candidates talking about it as an issue, as we talked about last week.

This week, we talk more details about what Don’s team has uncovered in other states. Clear examples of voter fraud. Clear and proven examples of election theft. In Wisconsin. In Georgia. In Arizona. We hear about “missing data”. Ballot harvesting. Mules. And so much more.

And, most importantly, what’s the remedy? Decertify? What would that mean? Take a listen to find out.

Yes, Oregon, There Really Is Election Theft

Are the examples of election theft in other states happening here in Oregon? Absolutely.

When it comes to voter fraud and election theft, I think this, from John Solomon, really nails it: “At this point, there is no downside to cheating in Wisconsin [Or any state, I might add], when you have a governor that is shutting down a lot of the things that we — as Republicans and Democrats — have thought would make a fair and transparent election,”

No downside to cheating.

Think of where that leads.
