Fraud Allegations in Congressional District 14 Elections: A Call for Nullification
Allegations of Election Fraud in Florida's District 14
In a recent development that has captured the attention of voters and political enthusiasts alike, the Ticktin Law Group has initiated legal proceedings against U.S. Congresswoman Kathy Castor and election officials regarding the elections in Congressional District 14, which includes Hillsborough and Pinellas Counties. The group filed a complaint, referenced as Case Number 2024 CA 001976, in the Second Judicial Circuit in Tallahassee. The allegations focus on purported fraudulent activity surrounding vote-by-mail ballot requests.
Attorney Peter Ticktin has raised serious concerns about the legitimacy of the election results, particularly drawing attention to a staggering anomaly on September 9. On that day alone, an astonishing 198,166 requests for vote-by-mail ballots were recorded. Ticktin pointed out that this figure stands out as an unprecedented spike in requests for any single day of voting. Of these, approximately 37,000 requests were processed without the essential identification information being provided, such as a driver's license number or the last four digits of the voter's Social Security Number. These identifiers are crucial for validating the identity of voters and preventing fraud.
Ticktin remarked, "While one would expect hundreds or even a few thousand requests on any day, the volume seen on September 9 is impossible. The failure to obtain proper identification violates safety protocols meant to prevent electoral fraud."
The complaints suggest that this issue may not be a first-time occurrence; rather, Ticktin implies that similar tactics may have been utilized in prior elections, specifically in 2020 and 2022, indicating a troubling pattern that has now been unearthed. "We are starting to investigate these 198,166 requests to determine how many voters may have been deceased, moved away, or simply not qualified to vote when they cast their ballots," he stated.
The legal filing specifically calls for an independent investigation into the operations related to vote-by-mail ballots from the November 5 election. Ticktin has requested that the court nullify the election results and mandate a new election due to these alleged infractions.
Ticktin asserts that the integrity of the entire vote-by-mail system has been jeopardized by actions taken by election officials who overlooked mandatory fraud protections. This neglect, according to him, invites and possibly even encourages electoral misconduct, undermining the reliability of election outcomes.
In addition to Congresswoman Kathy Castor, the lawsuit includes key election officials such as Julie Marcus, Supervisor of Elections in Pinellas County, and Craig Lattimer, Supervisor of Elections for Hillsborough County, as defendants in the case.
Peter Ticktin elaborated on the severity of this situation: "Such a breakdown in internal controls can lead to widespread fraud and corruption, casting doubt on the legitimacy of election results not just locally, but potentially across the entire state and country."
He emphasized, "The only reason Donald Trump secured a notable victory in the past elections was due to achieving results considered 'too big to rig.' Meanwhile, Senators Scott and Rubio lost significant mail-in votes; however, their legitimate voter turnout was sufficient to surpass fraudulent ballots. Countless candidates for the Senate and House may have faced similar unreported challenges."
As these allegations unfold, the implications for the electoral process in Florida and beyond are profound. Voters are left alarmed, questioning the integrity of the voting system and eager for clarity amid these serious claims. The outcome of this legal battle will be watched closely as it could set precedent for future elections under the increasing scrutiny of mail-in voting practices.
As of now, the Ticktin Law Group is preparing to push for transparency and accountability, urging the court not just to review the past election but to safeguard future electoral processes from potential fraud and misconduct.
