MURRIETA, Calif., Oct. 31, 2024 /Christian Newswire/ -- Yesterday, in a decisive move to ensure the accuracy and integrity of California's upcoming elections, Advocates for Faith & Freedom, on behalf of Election Integrity Project California ("EIPCa") filed a Writ of Mandate against California Secretary of State Shirley Weber and various county elections officials. The filing comes after EIPCa's thorough audit of election data from the November 2022 elections revealed major discrepancies, including instances of multiple votes being counted for individual voters. This legal action seeks to compel election officials to perform their legally mandated duties, ensuring that every vote in the November 2024 election is lawfully cast and accurately counted.
EIPCa's audit showed an unexplained discrepancy of 43,625 votes between the certified election results and the data provided by the Secretary of State's office. "We are not here to challenge election laws or the results of past elections," stated Advocates Attorney, Robert Tyler. "We are simply demanding that the laws on the books be followed, and that every vote in the 2024 election be accounted for correctly. This is about protecting the fundamental right to vote and ensuring election integrity in California."
"'A Republic if you can Keep it' was the response of Ben Franklin when asked what type of government the founders created. EIPCa and Advocates are working together to Keep the Republic by addressing election procedures that failed to prevent individual voters from casting multiple votes," said Linda Paine, President of EIPCa.
The Writ calls for the appointment of a neutral special master to oversee the certification of results to prevent further discrepancies and to uphold the transparency promised by the California Voter Bill of Rights. EIPCa remains committed to holding election officials accountable and ensuring that every eligible voter has confidence that their vote will be counted.
