Vancouver resident Ann Donnelly also states ‘There is another major priority – finding out who carried out that very significant attack’

I have been following the story of the attack on the ballot box, and now the comments of Auditor Kimsey and Councilor Bowerman and others.

I would advise that our energies now go into making sure cameras are added to the ballot boxes and tested prior to the next election, which will itself be a challenge. Vendors, costs, processes, and sources of funds must all be researched. So the sooner we all work together the better.
There is another major priority – finding out who carried out that very significant attack. We need to know who, why, and with what external backing. If the FBI already knows, I would argue that we need to know also.
It is not unheard of in recent history for the FBI to be slow to release important information based on political influence. Could the authorities, such as Council Chair Bowerman, request the FBI to share their information at the earliest time? Where are they on their investigation?

We need to go back to VOTER I.D. and IN-PERSON VOTING and one or two days people can go vote in person, we wouldn’t have these issues. This is why we continue to have Election FRAUD in Washington State, and we surely had it once again in Washington State with this Election.
Election fraud in Washington State is a myth. Just something to keep some sturred up about that is not true. So one individual got crazy and set two ballet bos=xes on fire does not make the election process flawed.
Please. Where was Ann, a staunch Kimsey supporter, a year and a half ago when we were practically begging Kimsey to install cameras? She was nowhere to be found. Or earlier this year when Restore Election Confidence initiative was attempting to get this done? Crickets. But now, after Kimsey last week announced he’d send a proposal to study and install cameras, Ann is springing into action.
Hmmm
Is Ann not MAGA enough for you? I read her occasional opinions in the Columbian and while at present I’m not a Republican, I respect her voice on topics. And there was a camera in place for that ballot box set on fire if you didn’t know.as pictures were shown in the Columbian. If you doubt tht, go back and check!
