@GottaLaff Cleta Mitchell and "election integrity". 🤮 More like #votersuppression #CletaMitchell

A fmr #FultonCounty election ofcl who submitted an initial draft of the rule told #ProPublica she had done so at the behest of a regional leader of a #FarRight org involved in challenging the legitimacy of American election systems. That org, the *Election Integrity* Network, is led by [disgraced atty] #CletaMitchell, who helped orchestrate attempts to overturn the 2020 #election & spoke on the call in which #Trump demanded #Georgia’s secy of state “find” 11,780 votes to undo #Biden’s win.

rightwing lawyer Cleta Mitchell, who runs an election integrity network at the Conservative Partnership Institute, where she is a senior legal fellow, has been fueling conspiracies about non-citizen voting.

According to NPR, Mitchell has circulated a two-page memo on “the threat of non-citizen voting in 2024”.

Mitchell also told an Illinois talk radio show this year: “I absolutely believe this is intentional, and one of the reasons the Biden administration is allowing all these illegals to flood the country.”

Mitchell was on Trump’s call with the Georgia secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, on 2 January 2021 when Trump pressed him hard to “find” 11,780 votes to overturn his defeat there.

@GottaLaff Cleta Mitchell is a piece of work. She wanted (probably still wants) to make it harder for college students to vote: https://www.msnbc.com/the-reidout/reidout-blog/cleta-mitchell-recording-college-voting-rcna80918 #cletamitchell #Wisconsin #VoterSuppresion #collegevoters

@GottaLaff
Everyone knows #CletaMitchell is chin-deep in all this; how is she still able to walk the streets?

…#RightWing #media outlets have promoted the challenges, casting public ofcls as corrupt & creating fodder that could be used in another round of #legal challenges should #Trump lose again.

…The undertaking pulls from every corner of the #ElectionDenial movement. Its parent grp is an offshoot of #CletaMitchell’s nat’l network. A top deputy to #MikeLindell, a promoter of election-related #ConspiracyTheories, helped conceive of the data program the activists use to hunt for *suspicious* #voters….

The #Michigan activists are part of an expansive web of grass-roots groups that formed after #Trump’s attempt to overturn his defeat in 2020. The groups have made mass #VoterChallenges a top priority this #election year, spurred on by a fmr Trump #lawyer, #CletaMitchell, & True the Vote, a #vote-monitoring group w/a long history of spreading #misinformation.

In the lobby of the grand Biltmore Hotel in CoralGables, FL, where a sprawling new force in Washington’s #RightWing ecosystem, the #CPI, was holding its winter conference, the fmr #Trump #legal adviser #CletaMitchell was exultant.

“Did you hear the ‘War Room’ today? #Bannon was on fire!” she said to a friend. She was referring to the podcast hosted by #SteveBannon, …who had been condemning #Republican senators for supporting billions…in #aid to #Ukraine & #Israel earlier….

@marcelias Cleta Mitchell should already be an indicted co-conspirator under Georgian laws.

"...
“It’s absurd for Cleta Mitchell or others to suggest our path to victory is by making it harder for young people to vote,” said the ex-Republican congressman Charlie Dent. “Republicans should not fear how people vote. Good candidates with good messages should resonate with voters.”

Excellent reporting by @HeidiReports it continues & gets even crazier w/millions going to #GinniThomas; characters such as #JohnEastman, #CletaMitchell & more submit amicus briefs & attempt to influence #SCOTUS; #CarrieSeverino a #ClarenceThomas clerk & #LeonardLeo #JEP assoc briefs SCOTUS on the anti-#abortion anti-#Obamacare #HobbyLobby case; the 2016 #Trump election; #FederalistSociety groomed judges #AmyConeyBarrett, #BrettKavanaugh & #NeilGorsuch get appointed.
Recommended read.

Instead of resolving the case along the lines argued by the lawyers, the justices took the unusual step of asking for re-arguments based on a sweeping question — whether they should #overrule prior decisions approving laws that limited #spending on #political campaigns.

The re-argument took place on Sept 9, 2009. Two months later, on Nov 6, #CletaMitchell filed an IRS application on behalf of #GinniThomas to form the group that became #LibertyCentral Inc.

Two months before the #CitizensUnited decision…, #attorney #CletaMitchell — later to play a role in #Trump’s false claims about the 2020 elections — filed papers for #GinniThomas to create a *#nonprofit* group of a type that ultimately benefited from the decision. #Leo was one of two directors listed on a separate application to conduct business in the state of Virginia. #Thomas was president. She signed it on New Year’s Eve of 2009, & #Crow provided much of the initial #cash.

Newly Surfaced Recording Reveals ALEC and GOP Election Attorneys Working with State Legislators to Question Validity of Election

The revelations were presented during a February 2020 Council for National Policy strategy session about elections.

@JamieCORY

American Legislative Exchange Council (#ALEC) CEO #LisaNelson told a room full of conservative activists that ALEC had been working with three GOP attorneys on “action items that legislators can take to question the validity of an election.”

The comments were made during a strategy session about elections at the Council for National Policy.

Nelson told the group, “obviously we all want President Trump to win and win the national vote. But it's very clear from all the comments and all the suggestions up front that really when it comes down to is the states and the state legislators.”

She added that they’ve been working with Former #FEC Member and #HeritageFoundation attorney #HansVonSpoksky, former Federal Election Commission member #BradSmith, and GOP attorney #CletaMitchell “trying to identify what are those action items that legislators can take in their states.”

“They can write a letter to the secretary of state questioning the validity of an election and saying what did happen that night,” Nelson said.

“So we are drafting a lot of those things. If you have ideas in that area, let us know and we'll get those to the state legislators and they can start to kind of exercise their political muscle in that area"
