Statement On The Restore Election Confidence Initiative
Sadly, I informed the Elections Department that we don’t have the required signatures for submission.
This was a very solid effort, but the restriction of only 120 days to gather signatures turned out to be more than our citizen-led effort could accomplish.
Here’s a list of factors that contributed to us coming up short:
- Improper conduct by the Prosecutor’s office that led to false information concerning the legality of the initiative.
- The Columbian knowingly pushing out false information (generated by the PA’s office) and withholding other information to put negative light and suppress signature collection.
- Kimsey putting forth improper negative legal opinions that perpetuated confusion to the public.
- 50 days of rain out of the 120 days to collect signatures.
- Corporate pushback & legal action to suppress signature gathering.
- Opposition from both political sides: some felt it didn’t go far enough or don’t want to talk about election issues and others miraculously don’t believe in election vulnerabilities anymore.
Thank you to all who gave, sacrificed and often stood out in the cold to collect nearly 8,000 signatures. Thank you to the 40+ businesses that put your patriotism over profits and setup a signature station.
Very special thanks to the volunteers that collected signatures, but most importantly, talked to thousands about how our elections can be better and should be better here in Clark County.
It took decades of inaction to get us where we are today, and it will take more than a few months effort to get us out. We must civilly and respectfully engage and sacrificially work to take our county back and bring about the reforms that will tilt us into a healthy Constitutional Republic once again.
I’m disappointed we came up short, but I’m pleased we’ve kept the light shining on this important issue of election confidence and ever increasing low voter turnout and exposed some hidden corruption along the way.
God bless you,
Rob
