Project Veritas Bombshell: ‘Illegal Electioneering’ for Pennsylvania Democrats Caught on Camera

Fact checked
Illegal electioneering caught on camera in Pennsylvania by Project Veritas

Project Veritas has filmed “illegal electioneering” for at least two Democratic candidates in a pair of key Pennsylvania races: John Fetterman, who’s running for U.S. Senate, and Josh Shapiro, who’s running for governor’s seat.

Townhall.com reports: In an undercover video filmed by Project Veritas Action (PVA) journalists at a Philadelphia polling location, Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe alleges that the investigative group’s journalists were told whom to vote for mere feet outside of one of the city’s polling places. Two of the interactions were captured on camera. “This is referred to as electioneering,” O’Keefe asserts.

“This is a Democratic Party form,” says a “committee person” whom PVA identifies as Rudy Stewart. The self-identified committee member presents a stack of papers titled “Official Democratic City Committee Ballot” for the 2022 general election in Philadelphia County. “Here’s the ballot,” Stewart says while speaking to an undercover PVA reporter.

At another point in PVA’s footage, Stewart states to presumed voters passing through: “Anyone need Democratic Party information?” Stewart then hands out the material to the passersby. Later on, pointing to Fetterman’s Republican opponent Dr. Mehmet Oz’s name listed on a table of Pennsylvania candidates pinned to a wall, Stewart says, “We’re scared of him.”

“I’m scared of him. We’re scared of him,” Stewart states, gesturing to Oz’s name, then to Shapiro’s GOP rival Doug Mastriano’s name. “So don’t vote for them?” a PVA reporter questions. “Yes,” Stewart affirms with emphasis. “These guys are scary.”

Another “committee person” PVA identifies as James Harrison says, “I just help out whoever, the majority of the community supports.” An undercover PVA journalist asks, “So you’re telling me I should vote John Fetterman? I should vote Joshua Shapiro?” To which Harrison replies: “If you vote Democrat, all of them are the Democratics [sic]. They only got one against one.”

PVA’s video cites a section in Philadelphia County’s training guide for election board officials that defines electioneering, which includes “Handing out campaign materials” and “Telling voters which candidates to support.” PVA highlights both components.

O’Keefe also claims that pro-Fetterman and pro-Shapiro campaign posters were hanging at the entrance of the polling center.

  1. EXPLAINER: How France’s old-school voting system works
    April 24, 2022

    Mail-in voting was banned in 1975 amid fears of potential fraud.

    People who can’t go to the polls for various reasons can authorize someone else to vote for them.

    To do so, a voter must fill out a form ahead of time and bring it to a police station. Up to 7% of people voted by proxy in the last presidential election five years ago. French people living abroad vote in embassies or consulates.

    Local authorities can organize vans or buses to pick up older people from nursing homes to bring them to voting stations, and prisons set up voting stations inside their facilities.

    HOW ARE THE BALLOTS COUNTED?

    Volunteers count the ballots one by one, by hand. Officials then use state-run software to register and report results.

      • Macron has less political power than before the election in France; he lost a lot of support. It’s easy to Rig an election in the United States, but difficult to rig in France.

        • They’re rigged everywhere. The French revolution was rigged from London by the Freemasons. Its been rigged from the start The whole point was to remove the French Monarchy.

          • The new voting laws in France make it less likely what is happening with the elections here cannot happen in France. No ballot drops in France.

  2. The Courts won’t care Stealing elections is NOT even a criminal offence. Its nothing its just a civil action.
