See what they said: True the Vote v. everyone.

Here is some political porn for the junkies out there.   This is the transcript for the True the Vote hearing held in federal court on July 24.  Catherine Engelbrecht's testimony begins on page 24. It's worth reading. It gets more interesting when MSGOP lawyer Mike Wallace begins his cross-examination at page 76 (see pages 85 and 86 as well.).  Hinds County attorney Pieter Teiwussen's cross beings at page 94 (read as well) and Rankin County attorney Craig Slay begins his cross on page 97.  Enjoy.

I'm much more concerned about p54 where she says TTV already has a list of 770 million American Voters. And, as her testimony continues, it's clear they have names, addresses, and birthdates in many cases. It's clear they are 3 Texans and a Georgian who acquired this personal information ( which testimony shows that Identity theft experts find shouldn't be available) simply by filling out a non-profit application.
So, without background checks, without any indication of how they secure access now or in the future to the information, they have this data on 770 million citizens.
We have only their " word" ( or hers) that should they disband or be replaced, none of them will ever sell or use that personal data for profit or to intimidate voters.
And, p 74 only adds to the concerns I have as it demonstrates how incompetent and untrustworthy these people are!
I do wish the judge had allowed testimony about their " fund raising". I understand why she did not, but I suspect it would have pointed to the lack of character of these 4 individuals!

"770 million American Voters."

Uh, excuse me, how many Americans are there in total (not just registered voters)? Where do these other come from?

Have you checked YOUR math?

There are 318,670,115 people in the United States of America.....so says Google.

I'm thinking they imported some voters from another planet....possibly Uranus.

@9:26, read the page the commenter cited. That's not his math, it is True The Vote which itself makes the dubious claim, under oath no less, to have the personal identifying information of 770 million voters in the United States.

But as we've seen with the McDaniels' campaign's repeated assertions that they have acquired (with TTV's willing assistance, evidently) incontrovertible proof of 25k incidents of voter fraud, now that the actual binders of its supposedly damning 'evidence' have been presented to the public, it's become painfully apparent that both TTV & the headcounters on Team McDaniels must have been students of Common Core math before Common Core Math was cool.

It's not MY math...read p.54! That's why I referenced the page.

Thank y'all, but I actually knew our population was around 300 million.

I should have put quotes around the number each time.

Maybe it's a typo or my aging eyes playing tricks, and it's 170 million ( which is more than known but close) but read HER testimony in the transcript!

The sooner the Federal District Court rules and knocks this crap out, the better for Mississippi.

She testifies at the bottom of page 95 that the personin the Hinds County circuit clerks office showed her the SEMS database. Hinds County is one of the 7 counties in the state that doesn't use SEMS.

Hinds uses SEMS.

I just finished reading the transcript.

Democracy for Sale. Unless you can steal it at a better price.

I wonder what the dollar value is for that database in the hands of the highest bidder, and what's the most egregious, unethical way that it can be misused... because we might be finding out soon.

I know Judge Atlas was thinking out loud about her personal concerns and the statutory arguments she wanted addressed in briefs, etc. The fact that she is seriously contemplating a decision in favor of G.Phillips and his bunch of crooks sends a chill up my spine, even if TTV already has "770M" voter info files in their database.


Thanks Dear Leader Mack Daniel, for providing the diversion to give cover while the crooks rob the bank.

Here is the TeaBagger Mississippi Allah working in cahoots with a another band of 503(c) grifters (TTV) just like himself, trying to usurp "States Rights" by subverting a Mississippi law which was written to protect the common good of ALL Mississippi citizens by arguing for the misapplication of NVRA.

McD the Hypocrite makes me sick.

Kingfish needs to request a copy of True the Vote's 990 and publish it here.

12:16 am Your point is well taken with me.

That these people have this data is very frightening.

10 to 18 cents a name is standard just for names and addresses and then you add costs for the people delivering the list and you can get that up to 50 cents to a dollar in the legitimate market.

Add in the birthdates and you really add value in the legitimate market. Then, the buyer has a list where they can target markets by age.

If you want to steal an identity or target the homes of people known to be wealthy or sell identities to those who need one, the list is worth whatever the buyer is willing to pay and there will be more than one buyer!

It's pretty upsetting to go on the Internet and see the information for sale from legitimate sources.

But, that these people have my information is far more bothersome. They clearly are people for whom the end justifies the means. They don't care how much damage they do to anyone, how many lies they tell, how much money they get from people who can't afford it as long as it furthers their cause.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
