3 2. Plaintiff / Declarant in anticipation of leave of the Court for economy and brevity
7 Attorney's Office in Sacramento filed on August 27, 2010 for a post General Election
8 hearing November 12, 2010 and the California Attorney General Motion filed August 24,
9 2010 as to Defendants Brown and Bowen joined by Defendant Kelley for a hearing
10 November 10, 2010 after the General Election and now together move as of October 4,
11 2010 for a combined hearing date on October 22, 2010 as applies to Plaintiff’s Notice of
12 Cross Motion for creation of a three judge panel with 42 USC §1973C in compliance
13 with 28 USC §2284 for an expedited hearing as time is of the essence with imminent
14 irreparable harm deserving of equity relief with a declaratory judgment and restraint.
16 3. Plaintiff seeks a declaratory judge pursuant to the cross motion with a combined
17 hearing scheduled for October 22, 2010 for creation of a three judge panel with 42 USC
18 §1973C in compliance with 28 USC §2284 to hear the Voting Rights Act (VRA) 42 USC
19 1973-C matter for a directed verdict with FRCP Rule 65 provisional and final relief with
20 28 USC §2201 and §2202 for issues raised as to 42 USC §1973 –I (c), §1973– I (d),
21 §1973-J, §1973-N, §1973GG-10 and §15544 as relates to 42 USC §1983, §1985(3)
22 and §1986 accordingly involving the questionable defective voter registration of
23 Defendant Damon Dunn who acted with Democratic Party partisans Defendants Orange
2 USC 1985(3) as well as AG Brown defined with 42 USC 1986 to interfere with the
4 Defendant Dunn’s Republican Party candidacy for Secretary of State with ballot access
5 at the November 2, 2010 General Election ballot for California Secretary of State.
6 4. That Plaintiff’s claim is based upon SOS Bowen and OCR Kelley collusion to
7 interfere as Democrats against SOS Bowen’s opponent SOS candidacy of Dr. Orly
8 Taitz, Esq. that by favoring a weaker candidate allowed for Dunn’s acts of spoliation with
9 the voter registration process so that Dunn’s affiliation with the Republican Party as a
10 Republican opponent would be versus that of Dr. Orly Taitz to give Dunn a sufficient
11 amount of time before the Republican Primary when registering to vote in California in
12 March 2009; and that neither OCR Kelley nor SOS Bowen acted to conform the faulty
13 Dunn registration with the ir-rebuttable presumptions of CA Election Code (CAEC)
14 §2154, instead used the pre NVRA / HAVA administrative protocol process admitted to
15 use of Cal. Admin. Code tit. 2, §19050.6 (shown at OCR Demurrer Memorandum page
16 3) that ignores any prior out of state registration in favor of California registration per se,
17 and that Plaintiff in the complaint process to correct the Dunn filling both Defendant
18 Bowen with AG Brown as Partisan Democrats show a pattern to marginalize and
19 disparage Plaintiff’s administrative complaints dating from before the 2008 General
20 Election.
21 5. That Plaintiff does seek to substantive due process based upon California Code
22 to bar Defendants; Damon Dunn, OCR Kelley, Secretary of State Debra Bowen and
23 Attorney General Edmund G. Brown Jr. from the General Election ballot and further
24 public office, claiming that they breached their fiduciary duties to Plaintiff along with
2 conforming to the requirements of CAEC §§2150 through 2154 as applies to any state
3 that maintains a voter registration database with 42 USC §1973gg and §15544 that with
4 related law requires a properly completed timely voter registration form; and without
5 such, thereby disqualifies Dunn as a candidate for Secretary of State and voting
6 participation when the filing completed after 15 days before the June 8, 2010
7 Republican primary and until this very day when 15 days before the November 2, 2010
8 from participation at the General Election except by provisional ballot with the VRA.
10 removed this matter to this Court under 28 U.S.C. §1442(a) (1) (as a suit against a
11 federal agency), and under the voting rights, the EAC’s presence in this suit is NOT the
12 only basis for federal jurisdiction in this matter as State Defendants are Federal Agents
13 acting under color of state law that had not been pre-cleared as to the operation of the
14 VRA for those states maintaining a Voter registration database. Therefore, if the Court
15 decides to dismiss EAC, it then has to dispose of the VRA matter as applies to its State
16 agents as Federal Agents with use of the Voter Registration database and thereafter
17 with the discretion to remand this case to state court for settling the damages. Prior to
18 removal, Defendants Brown and Bowen had filed a demurrer to Plaintiff's First Amended
19 Complaint. Remanding this matter would allow the superior court to decide damages
20 after a declaratory judgment is had with the VRA issues presented by Plaintiff.
21 7. That were the Court to retain jurisdiction of this matter, it should NOT grant
22 Defendants Brown Bowen and Kelley's motions to dismiss without leave to amend, as
23 Sovereign immunity under the Eleventh Amendment does not bar Plaintiff's claims
24 against Defendants Brown Bowen and Kelley as referenced in the Argument below.
2 Bowen, and Brown from the General Election ballot or from further public service -
3 would not substantially interfere with the November 2, 2010 election as public policy to
4 have both honest services of all public servants and an accurate fraud free ballot
5 presented to the voters to prevent making the voters accomplices in a fraud and crime;
6 and that otherwise as the primary election ended on June 8,2010, the parties have
7 nominated candidates for the Secretary of State and Governor races, and the state's
8 voters will elect a Secretary of State and Governor in the November 2, 2010 General
9 Election. Plaintiff's requested relief, therefore, would result in the nullification of votes
10 cast for Dunn, Kelley, Bowen, and Brown as would be required under the provisions of
12 8. The Court should order that Dunn did not properly qualify as an eligible candidate
13 for the Republican nomination for Secretary of State without a properly executed voter
14 registration form. Because before declaring his candidacy, Dunn needed to have been
15 affiliated with the California Republican party for at least three months, and not affiliated
16 with any other qualified California party for at least twelve months as Dunn without filing
17 a properly affirmed application to register to vote is not affiliated till this day, has not
18 cleared both of these requirements, and without a properly completed voter registration
19 he could not affiliate as a Republican nearly twelve months before declaring his
20 candidacy for Secretary of State in March 2010. And although Dunn's prior registration
21 in the Florida Democratic Party did not disqualify his candidacy, to the contrary because
22 Defendant Dunn’s actions to expunge the prior record and conceal it from the State
23 Defendants also involved an active Florida drivers license must nevertheless have been
24 referenced on the Voter Registration application filed by Dunn with perjury;
2 before he declared his candidacy, and notwithstanding whether or not the Florida
4 Dunn perjury in filling with the VRA when “Florida” must appear on line 16 when first
5 filed to be a properly affirmed affidavit of registration that still is not done. State
6 Defendants are not entitled to dismissal because Plaintiff's complaint does state the
7 facts showing that Defendants breached their duties in the processing of Dunn's
9 9. That neither OCR Kelley nor the Secretary of State fulfilled their duties by
10 presenting Dunn as one of the certified candidates for Secretary of State without a
11 properly executed voter registration affidavit. That Defendant Bowen also confirms
12 Dunn’s wrong doing by admitting the nonconforming registration with proof of intent was
13 to defraud was done by Dunn is ineligibility after Plaintiff had requested an investigation.
14 10. As for the Attorney General, Defendant Brown does have a statutory duty to
15 investigate Dunn's eligibility, especially when the Secretary of State found reason of
16 nonconformance with intent to defraud as Plaintiff referred the matter to the Attorney
17 General. And that Plaintiff's complaint does raise those facts showing that Defendants
19 for Secretary of State, and for these reasons, the Court should grant the Plaintiff motion
20 for a three judge panel for declaratory and injunctive relief accordingly and deny any of
21 the defendants’ motion to dismiss; and in granting Plaintiff’s motion the Court should
22 also grant Plaintiff further leave to amend her complaint as to the Federal matters
23 involved if the court deemed such matter necessary nunc pro tunc. Barnett has
24 exercised her right to amend her complaint once before answering Defendants' initial
2 has alleged facts stating a claim for relief as State Defendants’ actions beyond the
3 required ministerial requirement of Election Code under color of the pre-VRA uncleared
4 Cal. Admin. Code tit. 2, § 19050.6, in which State Defendants cite the 1904 decision in
5 Huston v. Anderson (1904) 145 Cal. 320,324, and the 1917 decision in Pohlmann v.
6 Patty (1917) 33 Cal. App. 390 show that the Defendants are liable, and that the Court
7 should remand the complaint with declaratory judgment back to State Court for settling
10 11. That Plaintiff realleges each and every allegation contained in the above
11 paragraphs with the same force and effect as though herein set forth at length omits it
12 for brevity, as to the Background facts as in part alleged by States Defendants motion
13 are from Plaintiff’s First Amended complaint that properly alleges Damon Dunn is the
14 Republican candidate for California Secretary of State and that the facts speak for
15 themselves. However in reference to the May 12, 2010 letter from the SOS shown as
16 Exhibit M in the FAC the intent is shown in paragraphs at the First Amended Complaint
17 Sixth Cause of action paragraphs 111 through 120 show thereby the required affirmative
18 action by the State Defendant that was not done and is in conflict with the administrative
21 12. That Plaintiff realleges each and every allegation contained in the above
22 paragraphs with the same force and effect as though herein set forth at length omits it
23 for brevity, as to the Procedural History as in part alleged by States Defendants motion
24 shown that the Plaintiff’s actions were timely given the requested expedited process that
2 given the extent of concealment and misdirection done by Defendants Dunn, Kelley
3 Bowen and Brown with their agents; and that EAC is a named party due to the denial of
4 substantive due process and unequal treatment accordingly as State Defendants are
7 13. That Plaintiff realleges each and every allegation contained in the above
8 paragraphs with the same force and effect as though herein set forth at length omits it
9 for brevity, as to State Defendants stated Standard for Review, Plaintiff complies
10 accordingly. Plaintiff meets the requirement under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)
11 (6), that as a matter of law it is clear that relief can be granted under any set of facts that
12 could be proved consistent with the allegations. That Plaintiff has a cognizable legal
13 theory, or sufficient facts alleged to support a cognizable legal theory. In considering the
14 motion, the Court must construe the complaint in the light most favorable to the plaintiff
15 and accept all well-pleaded factual allegations as true. That the complaint does contain
16 sufficient factual matter, accepted as true, to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its
17 face. That Plaintiff’s claim has facial plausibility when the plaintiff pleads factual content
18 that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the
19 misconduct alleged. The plausibility standard is not akin to a 'probability requirement,'
20 when but asks for more than a sheer possibility that defendant has acted unlawfully.
21 That Defendant Kelley in his Demurrer to which Plaintiff contends there in effect raised
22 the preclearance matter is a conflict of law under the VRA requiring a declaratory
23 judgment that may resolve the legal issue before a decision on the facts may be reviewed
2 14. That Plaintiff realleges each and every allegation contained in the above
3 paragraphs with the same force and effect as though herein set forth at length omits it
4 for brevity, as to State Defendants including Kelley, Bowen and Brown along with those
5 agents similarly situated however as yet named, Defendant Dunn who merely filed an
6 answer of general denial in State Superior Court without an appearance herein, and the
7 EAC whose agent the DOJ is responsible for investigation of all complaints and
9
10 As for Plaintiff’s response to State Defendants defense using the Eleventh Amendment
11 15. That Plaintiff realleges each and every allegation contained in the above
12 paragraphs with the same force and effect as though herein set forth at length omits it
13 for brevity, and that Plaintiff opposes as inapplicable the California Defendants’ putative
14 defense of Sovereign immunity with the 11th Amendment that would apply to Kelley
15 Bowen Brown does not apply in that all are agents of the Federal government with
16 duties under HAVA, the NVRA and VRA with related law; and furthermore as state
18 16. As for Plaintiff response to State Defendants defense using the Eleventh
19 Amendment, it places no limitations on the power of the judiciary to entertain suits
20 brought against a State by residents of that same State. That nonetheless, the
21 SCOTUS in a controversial 1890 decision, Hans v Louisiana, concluded that the
22 Eleventh Amendment was in fact a bar to federal suits against a state by that state's
23 own citizens. The Court reasoned that at the time of the amendment's ratification in
2 Young. The Court allowed a suit for injunctive relief against a state official reasoning
3 that if a state official violated the Constitution he cannot be acting on behalf of a state,
4 which can only act constitutionally. Thus, state officials--but not states--might be sued
5 when they violate the Constitution, even when they do so in the name of the state.
6 18. The question raised in this instant action is, does any State have sovereign
7 immunity from abiding with the NVRA / HAVA / VRA and related laws regarding states
8 that maintain a vote registration database and in this case sanction the harboring of
9 undocumented aliens or tourists at will that effect Citizen suffrage privileges. That in
10 Printz v United States (1997), the SCOTUS found that Congress had unconstitutionally
11 intruded upon state sovereignty in the law in question in Printz was a provision of the
12 Brady Act requiring chief law enforcement officers of states to run background checks
13 on prospective handgun purchasers. The Court rejected the federal government's
14 argument that it could enlist states in enforcing federal law, even though it might be
15 unconstitutional to require states to make law--the problem identified in New York v U.
16 S. However such may not be applied to both the VRA / INA and related law in that as a
17 result of the enactment of the U.S. Constitution every State of the several States in
18 perpetuity relinquished the right to determine the grant of US Citizenship to any alien as
19 it once had power to grant under the Articles of Confederation; and therefore no public
20 official of any State of the several states may ignore the provisions of VRA/INA and
21 related law including the racketeering provisions of harboring without acting ultra vires
22 and that any law passed to the contrary of Federal INA and related law except to adopt
23 said law as the law of the State per se with both civil and criminal provisions to match as
3 19. In Hans v. Louisiana, 134 U.S. 1 (1890), the Supreme Court ruled that the
5 Kennedy, writing for a five Justice majority, stated in Alden v. Maine, 527 U.S. 706
6 (1999):
7 “[S]overeign immunity derives not from the Eleventh Amendment but from the
8 structure of the original Constitution itself....Nor can we conclude that the specific
9 Article I powers delegated to Congress necessarily include, by virtue of the
10 Necessary and Proper Clause or otherwise, the incidental authority to subject the
11 States to private suits as a means of achieving objectives otherwise within the scope
12 of the enumerated powers.”
13 20. Although the Eleventh Amendment immunizes states from suit for money
14 damages or equitable relief without their consent, in Ex parte Young, 209 U.S. 123
15 (1908), the Supreme Court ruled that federal courts may enjoin state officials from
16 violating federal law. In Fitzpatrick v. Bitzer, 427 U.S. 445 (1976), the Supreme Court
17 ruled that Congress may abrogate state immunity from suit under the enforcement
18 clause of the Fourteenth Amendment as is done with the INA and related Federal Law.
19 As to Defendants’ contention that the Court should grant defendants' motion to dismiss
20 because Plaintiff’s requested relief would substantially interfere with
21 the conduct of the Election
22
23 21. That Plaintiff realleges each and every allegation contained in the above
24 paragraphs with the same force and effect as though herein set forth at length omits it
25 for brevity, and that Plaintiff opposes as to alleged interference with elections as moot
26 and that the California Defendants’ putative defense of compelling state interest to
27 present to the voters a defective ballot at the general election that would apply to Dunn,
2 presented is a fraud as to even a single candidate that it invites the voter into an act of
3 fraud also and whether not such statewide office also affects the votes cast for other
5 As for Defendants' contention that Plaintiff somehow failed to state a claim for relief
6 allege Dunn satisfied the eligibility requirements to run for Secretary of State, and is not
7 disqualified by any omissions in his voter registration form.
8
9 23. That Plaintiff realleges each and every allegation contained in the above
10 paragraphs with the same force and effect as though herein set forth at length omits it
11 for brevity, and that Plaintiff based upon the facts presented denies the Defendants’
12 putative defense that somehow Plaintiff failed to state a claim for relief as to Dunn,
14 24. As to Dunn, he did not satisfy the voter registration requirement with a properly
15 executed registration affidavit according to the law, and still has not by a plain reading of
16 the law and factual evidence shown by the actual registration form that is incomplete;
17 and that the facts at FAC Paragraphs 111 through 120 show:
18 “111. That the Background checks that was faxed to the California Board of Election
19 Chief confirms that Mr. Dunn had registered in both Texas and Florida
20 (see Exhibit J-1).
21 112. On or about February 24, 2010 Defendant Kelley and or his agents issued
22 a Declaration of Candidacy for Defendant Dunn located at 3131 Michelson Unit
23 708W Irvine CA 92612 pursuant to Elections Code Section 200, 8020 and 8040,
24 certified it on March 10, 2010 and filed on March 15, 2010 by Defendant Bowen
25 based upon the March 13, 2009 improperly executed Voter Affidavit of Registration
26 shown as Exhibit A for the Republican Party Direct Primary Election to be held June
27 8, 2010 (see Exhibit K).
28 113. Because the Registration shown as Exhibit A is Fraudulent until Mr. Dunn
29 amended a properly executed Affidavit of Registration to Vote in 2010, the
30 November 5, 2009 Intent for Candidacy shown as Exhibit B is null and void along
31 with the March 15, 2010 filed Declaration of Candidacy in that Mr. Dunn had not
32 been affiliated with the California Republican Party for 3 months required with
33 8001(a) by the amendment.
34 114. That on page two of the Declaration of Candidacy shown as Exhibit K
32 putative defense that somehow, Kelley, Bowen, Brown fulfilled all duties in ensuring
33 Dunn and other’s candidacy in the past complied with election laws.
34 26. Mr. Kelley admitted use of the administrative code that is in conflict with the
35 election code provision that is without rebuttable presumption with the duty to mandate
36 that Dunn re-file a registration with complete information wasn’t done and still isn’t; also
38 27. Ms. Bowen admitted the Dunn registration is “nonconforming” and without a
39 rebuttable presumption failed with the duty to mandate that Dunn re-file a registration
2 Dunn’s malicious intent to circumvent the code by expunging election records in other
3 states and failed to change his Florida driver’s license to a California driver license as is
4 required with the law for a valid residency for over a year after attempting to file a voter
5 registration form, Bowen failed to fulfill all duties in ensuring Dunn’s and as with other
7 28. Mr. Brown admitted receipt of several complaints as to election law violations and
8 has done nothing and that Mr. Brown’s oath office requires in Section 3 of article XX of
10 “Members of the Legislature, and all public officers and employees, executive,
11 legislative, and judicial, except such inferior officers and employees as may be by law
12 exempted, shall, before they enter upon the duties of their respective offices, take and
13 subscribe the following oath or affirmation:
14
15 “‘I,_________________________, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and
16 defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of
17 California against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and
18 allegiance to the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of
19 California; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of
20 evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties upon which I am about to
21 enter.
22
23 “‘And I do further swear (or affirm) that I do not advocate, nor am I a member of any
24 party or organization, political or otherwise, that now advocates the overthrow of the
25 Government of the United States or the State of California by force or violence or other
26 unlawful means; that within the five years immediately preceding the taking or this oath
27 (or affirmation) I have not been a member of any party or organization, political or
28 otherwise, that advocates the overthrow of the Government of the United States or of
29 the State of California by force or violence or other unlawful means except as follows:
30
31 ______________________________________________________________
32 (If no affiliations, write in the words “No Exceptions”) and that during such time as I hold
33 the office of ______________ I will not (name of office) advocate nor become a member
34 of any party or organization, political or otherwise, that advocates the overthrow of the
35 Government of the United States or of the State of California by force or violence or
36 other unlawful means.’
37
10 both the California Constitution and the Government Code. In addition, certain sections
11 in the civil rights statutes delineate specific mandates for the Attorney General as to
12 General Authority: The Constitution & Government Code §12511, the California
13 Constitution establishes the general, broad grant of authority to the Attorney General. It
14 establishes that subject to the powers and duties of the Governor, the Attorney General
15 shall be the Chief Law Officer of the State. It shall be the duty of the Attorney General to
16 see that the laws of the State are uniformly and adequately enforced. Statutory law, in
17 establishing the general operating structure of the Attorney General and the Department
19 “The Attorney General has charge, as attorney, of all legal matters in which the State
20 is interested, except the business of the Regents of the University of California and
21 of such other boards or offices as are by law authorized to employ attorneys. “
22 30. That the Case law in this area has generally interpreted both the Constitutional
23 and statutory grants of authority in unison. The courts have interpreted the provisions
24 expansively, in that the Attorney General's authority is limited only when the legislature
25 expressly deprives the Attorney General of the authority to pursue an action in a
27 31. The Attorney General has the authority to file any civil action which he or she
28 deems necessary for the enforcement of the laws of California, the preservation of
2 Attorney General may file any civil action which directly involves the rights and interests
3 of the State. Since the Attorney General is the chief law officer of the state, "he
4 possesses not only extensive statutory powers but also broad powers derived from the
5 common law relative to the protection of the public interest." The courts have held
6 unequivocally that it is the settled rule in California that the Attorney General is
7 authorized "to file any civil action for the enforcement of the laws of the state or the
8 United States Constitution, which in the absence of legislative restriction to the contrary,
10 32. That according to the published July 2010 analysis conducted by Hans Bader (1)
12 Edmund G. Brown is “The Nation’s Worst State Attorneys General” (2) with the Executive
13 summary, Introduction and particulars as to Mr. Brown see Exhibit A, as to Mr. Brown
14 who fails in all four areas analyzed in the criteria for AG ratings states:
15 “ 1. Ethical Breaches and Selective Applications of the Law. Using campaign
16 contributors to bring lawsuits. Using the attorney general’s office to promote
17 personal gain or enrich cronies or relatives. Favoritism towards campaign donors
18 and other uneven or unpredictable application of the law (including refusal to
19 defend state laws or state agencies being sued when plausible defenses exist).
20
21 “2. Fabricating Law. Advocating that courts, in effect, rewrite statutes or stretch
22 constitutional norms in order to make new law—for example, seeking judicial

22 33. That Plaintiff realleges each and every allegation contained in the above
23 paragraphs with the same force and effect as though herein set forth at length omits it
24 for brevity, as to Defendants unjust enrichment plaintiff along with those similarly
25 situated have been denied honest service of elected and or appointed officials who have
26 collected a salary and benefits under the basis of ultra vires activities in the failure to
27 maintain the integrity of the State Database as is integrated into the national database

8 for brevity, as to the State Defendants who are Federal agents of the EAC as a result of
9 California voluntarily deciding to use a voter registration base, and that because such
10 database is subject to fraudulent use requires Defendants Kelly, Bowen, Brown and
11 their agents to exercise a heightened standard of care to remove the deceased, those
12 relocated out of state, duplicate registrations, and ascertain that those who do register
13 are US Citizens of the proper age and civil status, including the requirement that the
14 person has a bona fide identity and that registration is not executed to circumvent the
15 election law and or the VRA. That in part the NVRA and HAVA were enacted because
16 those states that maintain a voter registration database have failed to exercise a
17 heightened standard of care to prevent fraud in California and the several states that

The Robert K. Dornan (RKD) story is incomplete without further explanation of the 1996 RKD
re-election defeat, after he had made a member speech on the floor of the US House attacking

citizens as proven on record with the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) [meaning at
least they were on a visa or had permanent residence whereas illegal aliens are totally off the

which no less than 2,369 of those aliens voted for Loretta Sanchez with impunity; and despite

—Hans A. von Spakovsky served as a member of the Federal Election Commission for two
years. Before that, he was Counsel to the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the U.S.
Department of Justice, where he specialized in voting and election issues. He also served as a
county election official in Georgia for five years as a member of the Fulton County Registration
and Election Board.
2 California both states databases are significantly in variance with that of New York (see
3 Exhibit E), wherein the necessary firewalls and safeguards are in place even with the
4 inaccuracies therein admitted to by the NYS Board of Elections in 2006 on the Court
5 record before Judge Sharpe in U.S. v NYS BOE NDNY 06-cv-263; and that New York
6 fully complies with the current Voter Registration Form (see Exhibit F) that requests that
7 the State of prior registration be designated by the Affirmant filling out the form for a
8 properly executed form filing unlike ignored by the State Defendants in California.
9 37. That in September 2006, RKD corresponded with the US Ambassador to the
10 Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) and Office of Democratic
11 Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) to determine the duties and responsibilities of
12 each state of the several states, the Federal government and OSCE / ODIHR as to the
13 national voter registration database that according to current reports is not accurately
15 38. That according to Ruth Gardner as shown in Exhibit C, the 2002 Dean Gardner
16 run for the 30th Assembly District tally showed 121,000 persons voted with the opponent
17 ahead by 200 votes with a survey by mail of 2650 voters showed that 700 surveys were
18 undeliverable with 1691 questionnaires that were answered and returned by electors, in
19 which 83 admitted in writing that they were not citizens, 273 stated they were not
20 registered to vote and did not live in the district while 69 more admitted they voted more
21 than once; and it was proven that of the 1318 voting irregularities 37% of the Democrats
22 were fraudulent and of the 2650 votes 905 were illegal meaning that Dean Gardner won
23 but the State officials did nothing, as with RKD years earlier.
2 39. That Plaintiff realleges each and every allegation contained in the above
3 paragraphs with the same force and effect as though herein set forth at length omits it
4 for brevity, as to the State Defendants who are Federal agents of the EAC, as Federal
5 law also recognizes the broad authority of states' attorney generals. In any suit in federal
6 court where the constitutionality of a state law is at issue, the state attorney general has
7 an absolute right to intervene in that case and have all the rights of a party to the case.
10 40. Were there an alternative to Mr. Brown’s claim of inability to act in the state of
11 California, if nothing else Mr. Brown must argue the constitutionality of the conflict in the
12 SOS use of the Administrative Code versus the Election code, and in which Mr. Brown is
13 properly named to respond as well as to the failure to act on the complaints filed with his
14 office, then accordingly the U.S, Department of Justice Criminal Division's Public
15 Integrity Unit has the power and authority to investigate such breach of fiduciary duty
16 involving election fraud. Falsification of eligibility documentation by a candidate may fall
17 under one or more of the causes of action that the DOJ's manual describes. For
19 41. It would seem possible that the DOJ is responsible to at least investigate
20 Plaintiff’s and others' accusations that Mr. Dunn committed acts of spoliation with the
21 intent to defraud voters, as with Senator Obama were he not born in Hawaii and that
2 Worker’s Party on the 2008 General Election Ballot in California, outrageously wasn’t
3 done; and as was properly complained of by Plaintiff to both Bowen and Brown to no
4 avail, and in that Congress has already granted authority to the DOJ to look into and
5 resolve matters that may take away someone's opportunity to vote for an 'eligible'
7 misinformation or other irregularities that may taint an election, whether proven or not.

John Sidney McCain was born in Colon Hospital, Colon Panama according to the
Panama Canal Health Department not in the Panama Canal Zone, and that according to
the Hay-Banau-Varilla Treaty says Colon Panama the birth city cited on McCain’s 1936
long form birth certificate (where he was witnessed being born, and where his parents
resided, Colon, Republic de Panama), has 26 articles in which the two pertinent to the
status of the city of Colon under that Treaty refer to the Convention for the Construction
of a Ship Canal (Hay-Bunau-Varilla Treaty), November 18, 1903: ARTICLE I The United
States guarantees and will maintain the independence of the Republic of Panama.
ARTICLE II The Republic of Panama grants to the United States in perpetuity the use,
occupation and control of a zone of land and land under water for the construction
maintenance, operation, sanitation and protection of said Canal of the width of ten miles
extending to the distance of five miles on each side of the center line of the route of the
Canal to be constructed; the said zone beginning in the Caribbean Sea three marine
miles from mean low water mark and extending to and across the Isthmus of Panama
into the Pacific ocean to a distance of three marine miles from mean low water mark
WITH THE PROVISO THAT THE CITIES OF PANAMA AND COLON and the harbors
adjacent to said cities, WHICH ARE INCLUDED WITHIN THE BOUNDARIES OF THE
ZONE ABOVE DESCRIBED, SHALL NOT BE INCLUDED WITHIN THIS GRANT…”
McCain is not a Natural Born Citizen, who perjured his affidavit for ballot access.

Calero was born in Nicaragua in 1969. He and his family fled via Los Angeles,
California in 1985. Calero is now a permanent resident alien (holding a green card)
since 1990. While in Los Angeles, Calero joined a socialist movement and helped
mobilize support against Proposition 187 in the early 90s and is not a Natural Born
Citizen. (Emphasis by Plaintiff).
3 a. All qualified voters have the right to have their votes counted fairly and
4 honestly as a vote for a usurper is not a vote, is in fact, voting for a usurper
6 b. Invalid ballots dilute the worth of valid ballots, and therefore will not be
7 counted as ballots that do not have the name of an eligible candidate are
8 invalid.
9 Simply put, then, election fraud is conduct intended to corrupt. For example:
10 • The process by which ballots are obtained, marked, or tabulated; and
11 • The process by which election results are canvassed and certified. (invalid
13 42. That Plaintiff did properly complain to Bowen and Brown of both Dunn and
14 Obama, which rhetorically if not to them whose job is it to check eligibility and especially
15 presidential eligibility when the states, the FEC, EAC, judiciary and even the
17 43. The ANSWER: The U.S. Department of Justice Criminal Division’s Public
18 Integrity Section has the duty, for as the following information is taken from the DOJ
19 manual on prosecuting Election fraud requires that ultimately, it is the DOJ's Criminal
20 Division's Public Integrity that has the authority to step in and sort out this mess...The
21 federal government asserts jurisdiction over an election offense to ensure that basic
24 federal candidate, whose election may be tainted, or appear tainted, by the fraud, a
2 Section 2, clause 1; Article I, Section 4, clause 1; Article II, Section 1, clause 2; and the
3 Seventeenth Amendment.
4 44. That In 2002, the Department of Justice established a Ballot Access and Voting
5 Integrity Initiative to spearhead its increased efforts to address election crimes and
6 voting rights violations. Under the ongoing Initiative, election crimes are a high law
8 45. That the Constitution confers upon the states primary authority over the election
9 process. Accordingly, federal law does not directly address how elections should be
10 conducted. However, local law enforcement often is not equipped to prosecute election
11 offenses. Federal law enforcement might be the only enforcement option available.
12 46. Further that the federal prosecutor’s role in matters involving corruption of the
13 process by which elections are conducted, on the other hand, focuses on prosecuting
14 individuals who commit federal crimes in connection with an election. (This DOES NOT
15 mean that preventative measures have never been taken by the DOJ, they have!)
16 47. Further that in determining whether an election fraud allegation warrants federal
17 criminal investigation and possible prosecution requires that federal prosecutors and
19 a. Is criminal prosecution the appropriate remedy for the allegations and facts
21 demonstrate that the defendant’s objective was to corrupt the process by
22 which voters were registered, or by which ballots were obtained, cast, or
23 counted.
3 federal criminal statutes that apply to election crimes. These generally allow
4 for the prosecution of corrupt acts that occur in elections when the name of a
5 federal candidate appears on the ballot, that are committed “under color of
6 law,” that involve voting by non-citizens, that focus on registering to vote, and
7 when the election fraud is part of a larger public corruption problem reachable
10 48. Justice Department supervision over the enforcement of all criminal statutes and
11 prosecutive theories involving corruption of the election process, criminal patronage
12 violations, and campaign financing crimes is delegated to the Criminal Division’s Public
13 Integrity Section. This Headquarters’ consultation policy is set forth in the U.S. DEP’T
15 49. The Public Integrity Section and its Election Crimes Branch are available to assist
16 United States Attorneys’ Offices and FBI field offices in handling election crime matters.
18 investigations, and drafting indictments and other pleadings. The Election Crimes
19 Branch also serves as the point of contact between the Department of Justice and the
20 FEC, which share enforcement jurisdiction over federal campaign financing violations.
21 50. A Historic background regarding the election process details many early
22 Enforcement Acts that were put in place to ensure that elections were free from
23 corruption for the general public. Many of the Enforcement Acts had broad jurisdictional
24 predicates that allowed them to be applied to a wide variety of corrupt election practices
2 Congress had authority under the Constitution’s Necessary and Proper Clause to
3 regulate any activity during a mixed federal/state election that exposed the federal
4 election to potential harm, whether that harm materialized or not. Coy is still applicable
5 law. United States v. Carmichael, 685 F.2d 903, 908 (4th Cir. 1982); United States v.
6 Mason, 673 F.2d 737, 739 (4th Cir.1982); United States v. Malmay, 671 F.2d 869, 874-
7 75 (5th Cir. 1982); United States v. Bowman, 636 F.2d 1003, 1010 (5th Cir.1981).
8 51. That after Reconstruction, federal activism in election matters subsided. The
9 repeal of most of the Enforcement Acts in 1894 eliminated the statutory tools that had
10 encouraged federal activism in election fraud matters. Two surviving provisions of these
11 Acts, now embodied in 18 U.S.C. §§ 241 and 242, covered only intentional deprivations
12 of rights guaranteed directly by the Constitution or federal law. The courts during this
13 period held that the Constitution directly conferred a right to vote only for federal officers,
14 and that conduct aimed at corrupting nonfederal contests was not prosecutable in
15 federal courts. See United States v. Gradwell, 243 U.S. 476 (1917); Guinn v. United
16 States, 238 U.S. 347 (1915). Federal attention to election fraud was further limited by
17 case law holding that primary elections were not part of the official election process,
18 Newberry v. United States, 256 U.S. 232 (1918), and by cases like United States v.
19 Bathgate, 246 U.S. 220 (1918), which read the entire subject of vote buying out of
20 federal criminal law, even when it was directed at federal contests.
21 52. In 1941, the Supreme Court reversed direction, overturning Newberry. The Court
22 recognized that primary elections are an integral part of the process by which
23 candidates are elected to office. United States v. Classic, 313 U.S. 299 (1941). Classic
24 changed the judicial attitude toward federal intervention in election matters and ushered
3 Reynolds v. Sims, 377 U.S. 533 (1964). In 1973, the use of Section 241 to address
4 election fraud began to expand. See, e.g., United States v. Anderson, 481 F.2d 685 (4th
5 Cir. 1973), aff’d on other grounds, 417 U.S. 211 (1974). Since then, this statute has
6 been successfully applied to prosecute certain types of local election fraud. United
7 States v. Wadena, 152 F.3d 831 (8th Cir. 1998); United States v. Howard, 774 F.2d 838
8 (7th Cir.1985); United States v. Olinger, 759 F.2d 1293 (7th Cir. 1985); United States v.
10 53. That over the past forty years Congress has enacted new criminal laws with
11 broad jurisdictional bases to combat false voter registrations, vote buying, multiple
12 voting, and fraudulent voting in elections in which a federal candidate is on the ballot. 42
13 U.S.C. §§ 1973i(c), 1973i (e), 1973gg-10. These statutes rest on Congress’s power to
14 regulate federal elections (U.S. CONST. art. I, § 4) and on its power under the
15 Necessary and Proper Clause (U.S. CONST. art. I, § 8, cl. 18) to enact laws to protect
16 the federal election process from the potential of corruption. The federal jurisdictional
17 predicate underlying these statutes is satisfied as long as either the name of a federal
18 candidate is on the ballot or the fraud involves corruption of the voter registration
19 process in a state where one registers to vote simultaneously for federal as well as other
20 offices. United States v. Slone, 411 F.3d 643 (6th Cir. 2005); United States v. McCranie,
21 169 F.3d 723 (11th Cir. 1999); United States v. Howard, 774 F.2d 838 (7th Cir. 1985);
22 United States v. Olinger, 759 F.2d 1293 (7th Cir. 1985); United States v. Garcia, 719
23 F.2d 99 (5th Cir. 1983); United States v. Mason, 673 F.2d 737 (4th Cir. 1982); United
24 States v. Malmay, 671 F.2d 869 (5th Cir. 1982); United States v. Bowman, 636 F2d
3 54. That as we can see, although election laws may have changed and evolved over
4 the years, Congress has already granted authority to the DOJ to look into and resolve
5 matters that may take away someone's opportunity to vote for an "eligible" candidate of
8 55. The following is a basis for federal prosecution under the statutes referenced in
9 each category:
10 56. Conspiring to prevent voters from participating in elections in which a federal
11 candidate is on the ballot, or when done “under color of law” in any election, federal or
12 nonfederal (18 U.S.C. §§ 241, 242). (Tricking voters into thinking that an eligible
13 candidate is on the ballot is a conspiracy to defraud) In the Conspiracy Against Rights.
14 18 U.S.C. § 241, Section 241 makes it unlawful for two or more persons to “conspire to
15 injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory,
16 Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or
17 privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States” under color of
18 law. The Supreme Court long ago recognized that the right to vote for federal offices is
19 among the rights secured by Article I, Sections 2 and 4, of the Constitution, and hence is
20 protected by Section 241. United States v. Classic, 313 U.S. 299 (1941); Ex parte
21 Yarborough, 110 U.S. 651 (1884). Wherein it is true that a vote for a usurper is NOT a
22 vote! A citizen can not exercise his/her voting right, if there is no equalized candidate to
23 vote for in the same way as a citizen can not sell you his/her neighbor's car if he/she
24 does not hold the title to the car. Therefore, the DOJ has an obligation to make certain
2 241 has been an important statutory tool in election crime prosecutions. Originally held
3 to apply only to schemes to corrupt elections for federal office. Section 241 embraces
4 conspiracies such as to injure, threaten, or intimidate a voter in the exercise of his right
5 to vote, Wilkins v. United States, 376 F.2d 552 (5th Cir. 1967); Fields v. United States,
6 228 F.2d 544 (4th Cir. 1955). Section 241 does not require that the conspiracy be
7 successful, United States v. Bradberry, 517 F.2d 498 (7th Cir. 1975), nor need there be
8 proof of an overt act. Section 241 reaches conduct affecting the integrity of the federal
9 election process as a whole, and does not require fraudulent action with respect to any
10 particular voter. United States v. Nathan, 238 F.2d 401 (7th Cir. 1956). That section 241
11 embraces conspiracies intended to injure. In this case, an injury does NOT even need to
12 occur, nor does anyone have to have conclusive proof of an overt act. In the case of
13 Misers Dunn, Obama, McCain and or Calero only the question has to be raised that he
14 "may not" meet the "eligibility" requirements to become rightfully elected to the office of
16 57. In election fraud cases, this public official is usually an election officer using his
17 office to dilute valid ballots with invalid ballots or to otherwise corrupt an honest vote
18 tally in derogation of the Equal Protection and Due Process Clauses of the Fourteenth
19 Amendment. See, e.g., United States v. Haynes, 977 F.2d 583 (6th Cir. 1992) (table)
20 (available at 1992 WL 296782); United States v. Townsley, 843 F.2d 1070 (8th Cir.
21 1988); United States v. Howard, 774 F.2d 838 (7th Cir. 1985); United States v. Olinger,
22 759 F.2d 1293 (7th Cir. 1985); United States v. Stollings, 501 F.2d 954 (4th Cir. 1974);
23 United States v. Anderson, 481 F.2d 685 (4th Cir. 1973), aff’d on other grounds, 417
24 U.S. 211 (1974). In failing to fulfill his/her fiduciary duties, our Secretary of State and
2 ballots corrupts an honest vote and violate the Equal Protection and Due Process
4 58. Deprivation of Rights under Color of Law 18 U.S.C. § 242. Section 242, also
5 enacted as a post-Civil War statute, makes it unlawful for anyone acting under color of
6 law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom to willfully deprive a person of any right,
8 States. Prosecutions under Section 242 need not show the existence of a conspiracy.
9 However, the defendants must have acted illegally “under color of law,” i.e., the case
10 must involve a public scheme, as discussed above. This element does not require that
12 jointly acted with state agents in committing the offense, United States v. Price, 383 U.S.
13 787 (1966), or if his or her actions were made possible by the fact that they were clothed
14 with the authority of state law, Williams v. United States, 341 U.S. 97 (1951); United
15 States v. Classic, 313 U.S. 299 (1941). This law would make it a CRIME for ANYONE
16 who knowing acted in concert with Dunn, Obama, McCain and or Calero to cover up his
18 59. False Information in, and Payments for, Registering and Voting. 42 U.S.C. §
19 1973i(c) Section 1973i(c) makes it unlawful, in an election in which a federal candidate
20 is on the ballot, to knowingly and willfully conspire with another person to vote illegally.
21 Congress added Section 1973i(c) to the 1965 Voting Rights Act to ensure the integrity of
22 the balloting process in the context of an expanded franchise. In so doing, Congress
2 registered voters because of a promise upon election, knowing full well that he was NOT
3 "eligible" to hold office, not only did he commit fraud, but he committed a crime against
4 42 U.S.C. Section 1973i(c) that has been held to protect two distinct aspects of a federal
5 election: the actual results of the election, and the integrity of the process of electing
6 federal officials. United States v. Cole, 41 F.3d 303 (7th Cir. 1994). In Cole, the Seventh
7 Circuit held that federal jurisdiction is satisfied so long as a single federal candidate is
8 on the ballot – even if the federal candidate is unopposed – because fraud in a mixed
9 election automatically has an impact on the integrity of the federal election process. See
10 also United States v. Sloane, 411 F.3d 643 (6th Cir. 2005); and United States v.
11 McCranie, 169 F.3d 723 (11th Cir. 1999) (jurisdiction under Section 1973i(c) satisfied by
12 name of unopposed federal candidate on ballot). Any conduct that violates the "integrity"
13 of an election is a CRIME. Obviously, the integrity of this election has been
14 compromised as more internet blogs pick up the story because of Obama's failure to
15 provide the mysterious "vault copy" of his birth certificate. Therefore, the DOJ has an
16 obligation to act, as a silent majority of Americans has already called the integrity of the
18 61. Section 1973i(c) is particularly useful for two reasons: (1) it eliminates the
19 unresolved issue of the scope of the constitutional right to vote in matters not involving
20 racial discrimination, and (2) it eliminates the need to prove that a given pattern of
21 corrupt conduct had an actual impact on a federal election.; and that this provisions
22 applies as central, because this states that the DOJ can get involved in any matter not
23 involving racial discrimination and it also eliminates the Plaintiff need to prove that a
2 criminalizes conspiracies to encourage “illegal voting.” The phrase “illegal voting” is not
3 defined in the statute. On its face, it encompasses unlawful conduct in connection with
4 voting. This is important, because the phrase "illegal" voting has not been defined by
5 statute. Surely, a vote for candidate you know or suspect does not meet the eligibility
8 63. Conspiracy against rights and deprivation of constitutional rights. 18 U.S.C. § 241
9 and § 242. Section 241 makes it a ten-year felony to “conspire to injure, oppress,
10 threaten, or intimidate” any person in the free exercise of any right or privilege secured
11 by the Constitution or laws of the United States” – including the right to vote. (Another
12 CRIME committed by Mr. Obama, in conspiring with the DNC and the rest of his cronies
14 64. False claims of citizenship. 18 U.S.C. § 911. Section 911 prohibits the knowing
15 and willful false assertion of United States citizenship by a noncitizen. See, e.g., United
16 States v. Franklin, 188 F.2d 182 (7th Cir. 1951); Fotie v. United States, 137 F.2d 831
17 (8th Cir. 1943). Violations of Section 911 are punishable by up to three years of
18 imprisonment as noted; all states require United States citizenship as a prerequisite for
19 voting. Section 911 requires proof that the offender was aware he was not a United
20 States citizen, and that he was falsely claiming to be a citizen. Violations of Section 911
21 are felonies, punishable by up to three years of imprisonment. If Mr. Obama, McCain
22 and or Calero presents himself as a natural-born U.S. Citizen and they are NOT, when
2 McNally nearly all the circuits had held that a scheme to defraud the public of a fair and
3 impartial election was one of the “intangible rights” schemes covered by the mail and
4 wire fraud statutes. McNally repudiated this theory in an opinion that not only rejected
5 the intangible rights theory of mail and wire fraud, but also did so by citing several
6 election fraud cases as examples of the kinds of fraud the Court found outside these
7 criminal laws. It is noted that the following year, Congress responded to McNally by
8 enacting 18 U.S.C. § 1346, which defined “scheme or artifice to defraud” to include “the
9 intangible right of honest services.” However, this language did not clearly restore the
10 use of these statutes to election frauds. This is because Section 1346 encompasses
11 only schemes to deprive a victim of the intangible right of “honest services,” and most
12 voter fraud schemes do not appear to involve such an objective. Moreover,
13 jurisprudence in the arena of public corruption has generally confined Section 1346 to
14 schemes involving traditional forms of corruption that involve a clear breach of the
15 fiduciary duty of “honest services” owed by a public official to the body politic, e.g.,
16 bribery, extortion, embezzlement, theft, conflicts of interest, and, in some instances,
17 gratuities. Obviously, whether knowingly or not, elected officials and other public
18 servants have breached their fiduciary duty to provide "honest services" to American
19 citizens.
20 66. “Cost-of-election” theory. 18 U.S.C. § 1341 One case, United States v. DeFries,
21 43 F.3d 707 (D.C. Cir.1995), has held that a scheme to cast fraudulent ballots in a labor
22 union election, which had the effect of tainting the entire election, was a scheme to
23 defraud the election authority charged with running the election of the costs involved.
24 DeFries was not a traditional election fraud prosecution. Rather, it involved corruption of
2 ballots for that candidate. When the scheme was uncovered, the United States
3 Department of Labor ordered that a new election be held, thereby causing the union to
4 incur an actual pecuniary loss. The D.C. Circuit held that the relationship between that
5 pecuniary loss and the voter fraud scheme was sufficient to satisfy the requirements of
6 McNally. The fraud that Mr. Dunn, Obama, McCain and or Calero would have
7 perpetrated on the American people if he were later found out to be ineligible for
8 president will have indeed caused another candidate the presidential election. Worse
9 yet, if it is found out AFTER the election that Dunn and or for that matter Obama /
10 McCain Calero and or whomever did not meet the eligibility requirements to hold office,
11 off votes for Obama/Biden would be "illegal" and "invalid" votes and would therefore
12 should not be counted. Therefore, Biden cannot be President either if an "illegal" and
13 "invalid" vote was cast for any Dunn / Obama / McCain / Calero tickets. That at this point
14 in time the election will, most likely, have to be re-held no matter who would be
15 declared the winner, because the Dunn / Obama / McCain / Calero tickets would have
17 67. Election-related allegations range from minor infractions, such as campaigning
18 too close to the polls, to sophisticated criminal enterprises aimed at ensuring the
19 election of corrupt public officials. Such matters present obvious and wide disparities in
20 their adverse social consequences. In theory the Department must strive to achieve a
21 nationally consistent response to electoral fraud, it is important that federal investigators
22 and prosecutors avail themselves of the expertise and institutional knowledge that the
23 Public Integrity Section possesses in this sensitive area of law enforcement.
2 governments: 18 U.S.C. §595, Section 595 was enacted as part of the original 1939
3 Hatch Act. The statute prohibits any public officer or employee, in connection with an
4 activity financed wholly or in part by the United States, from using his or her official
5 authority to interfere with or affect the nomination or election of a candidate for federal
6 office. This statute is aimed at the misuse of official authority. Section 595 applies to all
9 on intent to influence the vote for or against an identified federal candidate violates
10 Section 595. This Code may certainly apply to those officials who used public computers
11 and or facilities to "disparage" Dr. Orly Taitz as shown in FAC Exhibit or Plaintiff for that
12 matter for supporting her and or pursue justice herein, if it can be proved, that the intent
13 was to discredit Dr. Taitz to interfere or "affect" the election process.

15 the maintenance of the integrity of the respective State Voter registration database and
16 the EAC for the National integrity of election in that every elected official in regards to
17 the National Voter Registration Act and HAVA and related law must be in compliance
18 with the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 and related law passed by a

9 naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of

14 in regards to voter registration as the only means to get a conviction on fraud in that a
15 piece of paper may not be cross examined in court only a person may be cross
16 examined. Of course, without the necessary check by the registrar of the other state
17 databases to verify that the actual signer is (separate from the guarantee of
18 impersonation) not also registered in another state must notify the state registrar there
19 to prevent multiple voting frauds. The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 was
20 enacted to wrest control of registration from the firewall protection of a local registrar
21 and giving such control to the devil himself to conduct registration and voting at a

Issue Analysis

Executive Summary
State attorneys general (AGs) are among the most powerful office holders in the country, with few institutional
checks on their powers. A state attorney general, such as Oklahoma’s Drew Edmondson, can bring a politically
motivated prosecution in violation of the First Amendment, yet his victims may well have no legal redress. With
the possible exception of former New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer, the enormous power wielded by state
attorneys general has received little scrutiny. This discussion of the nation’s half-dozen worst attorneys general,
like its 2007 precursor, seeks to focus much needed attention on their most egregious abuses of power.
The historic function of a state attorney general is to act as the state’s chief legal advisor, charged with
defending the state in court and giving legal opinions to officials on pending bills and policies. In some instances,
attorneys general have been entrusted by state legislatures with enforcing specified laws, assisting district attorneys
in prosecuting serious crimes, and disseminating legal information.
Like other government offices, state attorney general offices were designed to have limited powers, set
forth by their respective state constitutions and statutes. Under all state constitutions, the legislature, not the
attorney general, is given the power to make laws. If the legislature has not specifically given the attorney general
the right to enforce a particular law, then he may be exceeding his authority by bringing a lawsuit under it.
Federal law also limits an attorney general’s power. When a state attorney general attempts to regulate
conduct in another state, that may violate not only state law, but also the Constitution’s Due Process and Commerce
clauses, which forbid any state from imposing its laws on another state or regulating interstate commerce.
Unfortunately, many state attorneys general now ignore these constraints. In recent years, many state AGs
have increasingly usurped the roles of state legislatures and Congress by using lawsuits to impose interstate and
national regulations and extract money from out-of-state defendants who have little voice in a state’s political
processes.
Although abuses are widespread, some attorneys general are worse than others. The greatest harms inflicted
by overreaching state AGs include encroachment on the powers of other branches of government, meddling in the
affairs of other states or federal agencies, encouragement of judicial activism and frivolous lawsuits, favoritism
towards campaign contributors, ethical breaches, and failure to defend state laws or state agencies being sued.

Others helped the Gardners in this investigation and a questionnaire was sent out to 14,000 new registered Dean & Ruth Gardner : Voter Fraud
democrat voters in a selected area within the 30th Assembly district.
A red flag came up for this area because of so many new democrats in that area of the district who were
registered to vote between March of that primary and November 2002. "Anyone who's done voter registration
knows that you don't get those kind of numbers." Their hunch paid off.
In that simple questionnaire a $500 dollar award was to be given if it was accurately returned. 2650, believe-
it-or-not were returned. It must have had something to do with the money. Here are the three questions
that they had to honestly answer and return.
Ruth, "A few more than 700 of these questionnaires, according to the U.S. Postal Service - were
undeliverable, no such person, no such address, no such house - and 54 of those people voted."
Continuing with the results, Mrs Gardner stated, "1691 questionnaires were returned by electors. 93
admitted 'in writing' they were not citizens. 273 stated that they were not registered to vote and did not live
in the 30th Assembly district. One woman who lives in Porterville, CA. voted twice, while 69 more admitted
they voted more than once."
Summarizing, Mrs Gardner said, "The bottom line of all these 2650 returned questionnaires, 1318 had voting
irregularities. 37% of the democrat votes were fraudulent and of the 2650 votes we can prove that 905 were
illegal." Electronic Voting Machine Fraud
In Delano a woman who was caught illegally filling out the absentee ballots was finally prosecuted. Her
father, according to Mrs Gardner, was running for city council in Delano and he was elected by 3 - 4 vote
margin. Odds are a deal was struck to lesson the punishment of this crime but the facts remain, voter fraud
was done in Delano and continuing to commit fraud could very well show up in November.

"In order to combat voter fraud, you have to know how it's done." Ruth Gardner ...
The basic tried and true "High Propensity Voter" - HPV, is the target of another voter scam. This person
never misses an election. As well, these HPV have a tendency to vote using the absentee ballot.
Your absentee ballot can be easily negated by these perpetrators simply by returning another absentee
ballot in your name. Once the signatures are viewed at the elections department and are found to be
different or changed, they cannot be counted and are then placed in another file or box that's identified as
"Signature Don't Match" and that's the objective of this scam. They know they can't cast a ballot in your
name, however, they can cancel, nullify or negate your vote with a false signature.
The key California law here is this, the last submitted absentee ballot received at the elections department
becomes the official voting ballot signature - but because the signature was a bit different or changed it will
not count. University Exposes Diebold Flaws
Another voter scam is the "Low Propensity Voter" - LPV, Mrs Gardner told the audience. "This is the guy who
most likely isn't even registered to vote. What happens next is the opposition hires shills - people
impersonators. They will travel from poll to poll with a list of names that are typically hanging on the walls
at the voting polls looking to see which one's are eligible to vote at that particular polling place."
Fore the most part, all of the parties have campaign, party and poll workers who go in and check these
names to see who's voted and who hasn't. Many of these lists are updated every hour, so that campaign
worker will call in the names of folks who have yet to vote.
Once they have this poor smuck's name they send in the shill to use the name of that LPV person who has yet
to vote. After they do thses shills go to the next poll, use another LPV name and vote according to how they
were instructed or paid.
HBO : HACKING DEMOCRACY
CAN WE FIX VOTER FRAUD :
According to the Gardner's, it won't be don't by the legislators, the governor or California's Secretary of State
fraud unit. "It's gotta to be done by Californian's changing California's Constitution. It's probably going to take
a revolt, said Dean Gardner - like the prop 13 revolt against high home taxes."
California's voting system can no longer be trusted. The peoples right to cast an honest vote is laughed at by
many from the left. Voting scams have criss-crossed this state for so many years it's not even funny. Once
elected and in power, they find ways to silence officials and special agents who are commissioned to
investigate voter fraud complaints.
Lamenting this problem, Dean Gardner reminded the audience, "that you are required to have a voter ID in
Mexico but not in California, and by-the-way, it's illegal to ask someone for their identification at the polls
and it's a felony for the election worker at that polling place to ask for your ID and you can get up to three
years in prison for asking the question."
Who came up with that law ? Willy Brown (D), Sacramento's past Assembly speaker of the Assembly.
First - Go and check your signature at the election department. For many of us in Tulare County the
elections department in located in Visalia. Ask them to show you your signature they have on file. If it is
different, then ask for a copy of what they show you. Odds are that someone came down to the elections
department requesting voter registration cards and re-registered your name with a changed signature. That
someone had to sign with the elections department for those registration cards which are numbered and if
the last registration card they have on file that was changed it could be construed as fraud by who signed for
those registration cards.
Next - and I know this may fluster a few, but re-register with the elections department as a regular voter.
Make sure they understand that you no longer want to be an absentee voter. This will surely send a message
to those at the elections department and hopefully those who are hell-bent on voter fraud.
Third - Make a copy of your new voter registration card before you give it back to the elections department.
Fourth and final - Become a poll watcher. These voter fraud crimes are committed when no one cares and
where there are very few poll observers. Take down the license plate number of large cars and vans which
transport people to the polls. If something looks a little fishy, or something doesn't feel right, take note. Tea
Party people will ... why don't you ?
