© NTD TelevisionTrump campaign attorney Jesse Binnall presents arguments at an evidentiary hearing in a Nevada election contest in Carson City, Nev., on Dec. 30, 2020.
A Nevada hearing has revealed a host of election irregularities including: the obstruction of witnesses by the United States Postal Service; ballots cast by dead people; improperly calibrated signature verification machines; and election inspections where less than one-third of the GOP's demands were met.
Since the election contest case was filed, a host of developments have occurred regarding officials receiving access to inspect voting systems and data revealing the extent of fraud in the swing state.
Obstruction.One such development is that
the United States Postal Service (USPS) is "preventing witnesses and whistleblowers from testifying," concerning wide-scale
orders for workers to deliver ballots to nearly 8,000 "undeliverable" addresses. The ballots were later "collected, turned in, and presumably counted."
"There are multiple key witnesses who are whistleblowers with matching, independent stories supporting these issues, who USPS is trying to obstruct from testifying," the Nevada GOP notes.
100,000 Forged Ballots.The state Republican Party is also putting forward a data scientist testifying to over 100,000 unique cases of illegal ballots.
Comment: The judge reportedly didn't allow the evidence about non-citizens voting as it was produced by the Trump team too late (they say the information only became available late, and they couldn't have received it any earlier).
Here's the livestream of yesterday's hearing (warning, sound isn't great):
In addition to all the above, a witness was brought forward alleging that data was
changed overnight during the election:
According to Jesse Binnall, who presented the evidence on behalf of the Trump campaign, the witness, whose name is shielded by a protective order, said that the vote tallies were collected from the machine at the end of every voting day and stored on Universal Serial Bus (USB) drives overnight.
"What they would do is they would log these disks in and out. Good practice. And the disks had a serial number on them. And numerous times that disk would be logged out with one vote total on it and logged back in the next morning during the early vote period with a different number on it. Sometimes more, sometimes less," Binnall said.
"What that means is that literally in the dead of night, votes were appearing, and books are disappearing on these machines."
Binnall said that the USB drives were not encrypted and the voting machines were not password protected. "And they were hooked up with laptops, then where the laptops themselves could have been compromised," he added.

Kevin Hamilton, the attorney for the defendants, delivered a comprehensive point-by-point challenge to all of the Trump campaign's claims. He argued that the Trump campaign didn't name a single voter among voluminous lists of ballots that were allegedly illegally cast.
"Simply put, breathtaking relief demands breathtaking evidence but contestants stand before you with nothing of the sort," Hamilton said.
Hamilton argued that similar legal challenges against the use of the signature-matching machine have been overruled without exception by other courts. He also targeted the credibility of Jesse Kamzol, a key witness for the defendants whose testimony features a data analysis that points to a large number of potentially illegally cast ballots.
In a rebuttal delivered at the tail end of the hearing, Binnall pointed out that the defendants didn't question Kamzol's analysis and instead attacked his qualifications. Kamzol served as the chief data officer for the Republican National Committee as recently as 2017.
District Judge James Russell ordered both parties to submit proposed orders to the court by 10 a.m. on Friday so he can quickly make a ruling with enough time for either party to appeal to the Nevada Supreme Court.
Binnall also claimed that a
recent audit of 1.5k mail-in ballots "suggested that 2 percent of ballots were cast on behalf of voters who never received a ballot in the mail. While 1 percent of them were cast on behalf of voters who said they did not vote at all."
Baselice and Associates conducted the audit for the legal team representing the Trump campaign in Nevada. The firm called the voters identified on each mail ballot. The findings suggest that 3 percent of the ballots were cast by someone other than the person identified on the ballot.
But rest assured, there is "no evidence" of widespread voter fraud. Or are the claims just "unsubstantiated" now?
Comment: This news is breaking: John Fredericks appeared on Bannon's War Room and claimed that the Trump team has been able to analyze a Dominion machine in Ware County, Georgia. It reportedly showed 37 votes flipped from Biden to Trump, which would allegedly extrapolate to 14,000 votes in all of Georgia (assuming similar changes in all other counties).
One of the Georgians who volunteered to watch election locations to make sure Dominion didn't do anything shady while they were under court order not to tamper with the voting machines found this:
As for that court order, check this out. These people are acting like they have absolutely nothing to hide:
