The chain of custody and security of ballots should be a foremost concern.”

The evidence of real and tangible voter fraud against vulnerable senior voters is growing. In their August 2022 Townhall article, ACRU Board Members, former Attorney General Edwin Meese III and former Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell declare the problem is widespread. For example, they wrote, “In Wisconsin, the state assembly appointed a special counsel to investigate vote fraud in nursing homes after an investigation by a county sheriff uncovered evidence indicating numerous cases of vote fraud in a nursing home.
