FBI Finds No Evidence of Coordinated Mail-in-Ballot Fraud


A Senior FBI Official said, Wednesday August 26th, that the Bureau has “not seen to date” a “coordinated” Mail-in-Ballot Voter Fraud Scheme, despite President Trump’s and his Allies’ repeated Attacks on the Long-Standing U.S. Mail-in-Voting Option and the Postal Service.

And even if there were a Level of Coordination among Fraudsters Mailing in Ballots, “it would be extraordinarily difficult to change the outcome of the election based on this kind of fraud,” the FBI Official added.

The Bureau Member’s Remarks were made during a Phone Background Briefing with Journalists on Wednesday afternoon, along with Representatives from various Government Agencies involved in Election Security.

The FBI Officials’ Statement, backed by Top Election Security Personnel, appeared to Contradict Attorney General, William Barr’s, comments during a recent Fox News Interview in which he argued that Allowing for Widespread Voting by Mail would “open the floodgates to fraud,” including the possibility that a Foreign Country could “print tens of thousands of counterfeit ballots.” But speaking on the call Wednesday, a Senior Official from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) Reported “no information or intelligence” on this Threat.

The Call took place shortly before some of those Same Officials delivered a Classified Briefing on Ongoing Threats to State and Local Election Administrators.

Additionally, Bill Evanina, Director of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center, recently Published an Update on the Intelligence Community’s Assessment of Foreign Interference in the Election, concluding that Russian-linked Actors are still Actively involved in Denigrating Democratic Nominee Joe Biden and sowing Chaos, while the Chinese Government appears to be concerned about President Trump’s “unpredictable” Approach and may Prefer he Not be Reelected.

He expressed Confidence in the work done during the Three years following the 2016 Election. “We’re literally exponentially better” at Tracking what’s going on in Election Systems now than in 2016, he said, citing both Technical Sensors set up on the Perimeters of Election Infrastructure Networks primed to Detect Intrusions and Voluntary Reporting from State and Local Election Leaders.

So far, however, the Government has Picked-Up on Criminals and Adversaries doing Routine Scanning and Probing in search of Vulnerabilities or Holes where they might be able to Infiltrate Election Systems. The Vast Majority of Activity has been Blocked. For those few instances, No voter Data has be Changed.
