Can the Eslate Machines that are Currently Being Used by Harris County Voters be Manipulated?

C

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©

Complaints are regularly filed by Texas voters in regards to the eSlate machines. In fact, Texas election officials have received a bunch of complaints from voters who claim the machines flipped their votes over the years. Which prompted election officials, back in the 2018 midterms to advise Texas voters to take their time while casting their ballot. Back then, a whole slew of complaints had been received from across the state from early voters who were trying to cast straight-tickets; but believed that the eSlate machines had actually changed their votes. Two of the complaints were lodged over in Tarrant County. However, after investigating the issues, according to published reports, the Tarrant County officials determined that there was no indication of a technical issue with the voting machines. However, if you ask Evelyn Brown a longtime Fort Worth, Texas voter, who believed her vote got flipped (according to published reports) she might tell you a different story. According to her, when she went to the Southwest Community Center on Welch Avenue and had cast a straight-party vote, upon reviewing the summary page, she saw that her choice in the U.S. Senate race was

different than the selection she’d made. She said, according to published reports, that in the U.S. Senate race, between Republican U.S. Senator Ted Cruz and his Democratic challenger U.S. Representative Beto O’Rourke – the eSlate machine had flipped to the candidate in the other party. According to this 63-year-old longtime voter, she ended up spending seven or eight minutes trying to move back to change the candidate but was unsuccessful. So, she ended up calling the election judge over who eventually ended up calling the Tarrant County Elections Office. In the end, the eSlate machine in question was temporarily placed in out-of-service mode. And Evelyn Brown was moved to a different machine, where she was able to cast a vote for all of the candidates of her choosing.

Hello,

I want to introduce myself; my name is Mark Alan Harrison. I come to you today with unabashed enthusiasm to announce my candidacy for Harris County Precinct 5 Constable.

I care very deeply for our community. I’m an experienced leader, veteran law enforcement officer, and Former Chief of Police and Lieutenant with the Harris County Constable Office. I am a lifelong resident of Sharpstown, having attended Sutton Elementary, Jane Long Junior High, and Sharpstown High School. My family has belonged to the Sharpstown Baptist Church since 1970. I am the father of a wonderful daughter and grandfather of three amazing granddaughters.

Harris County Precinct 5 has become the fastest growing and most diverse precinct in the county. I believe that the Constable’s Office needs to develop new ideas and methods to serve all of the community better. A house is merely a structure, but a home is the people living in it. It’s the same with our community:

our community isn’t the area or the land, it’s the people that live within. From Southwest Houston to Katy, our desires for our home are the same. Regardless of race, gender, sexual identity, religion, or political party, we all need to work together to make a positive change in our community.

I am asking for your support in the upcoming election. I will work hard to earn your trust, and if elected, my Office will never forget the importance of those for whom we work. I look forward to our journey together to a better future.

KEVIN'S PEAR PLAN Kevin developed his PEAR Plan to help move Pearland forward in keeping with the city's economic development, crime and safety issues, infrastructure and managing the city’s budget and resources.

PROTECTION

One of the key responsibilities of local government is to PROVIDE PROTECTION for its citizens. As Mayor, Kevin will take this responsibility seriously.

POLICE PROTECTION is vitally important to Pearland and Kevin will focus on the City’s efforts to keep a low crime rate.

FIRE PROTECTION is key in keeping both property safe and threats to life at a minimum. The City has been upgrading staffing and facilities to make sure the City has proper coverage for both fire and EMS calls.

Maintaining and increasing PROPERTY VALUES is important to both the City and to property owners.

FLOOD/DRAINAGE: Certain areas of the City continue to suffer from repetitive losses during large flooding events. Kevin understands drainage and the importance it plays. He will dedicate continuing efforts to resolve these long-standing issues.

On the far west end of Pearland, the BLUERIDGE LANDFILL COMPLIANCE ISSUES are also a drag on property values for homeowners. These issues should be important to Pearland as a whole because of the loss of property value in that area. The rest of the City has to make up the difference.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Homeowners pay the bulk of property taxes in Pearland, so it is important that we EXPAND PEARLAND'S TAX BASE through attracting clean industry and high paying jobs. It is also important for us to DIVERSIFY PEARLAND'S TAX BASE so as not to be too heavily weighted in any particular industry. (Oil and gas is an example).

Pearland has existing businesses that contribute a great amount to the overall community. We need to RETAIN AND EXPAND PEARLAND'S EXISTING BUSINESSES. One of the biggest keys to attracting or retaining companies is making sure they have an available and skilled workforce. WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT IS CRUCIAL. Kevin has experience through the Northern Brazoria County Education Alliance to help with this effort. Partnering with the ISDs, Community Colleges, and UHCL Pearland Campus will be important in making our workforce the best in the area.

Kevin has always been a believer in a MARKET-BASED APPROACH when it comes to growth and development. There are certain areas of the City that have not experienced economic development and the zoning needs to be looked at through the eyes of the market.

Small business is the backbone of the Pearland economy. Kevin will focus on making sure rules, regulations, and permitting are done in an efficient manner to FOSTER THE GROWTH OF SMALL BUSINESS.

ACCESSIBILITY (MOBILITY AND TRAFFIC)

COLEFORPEARLAND Kevin will focus on transportation needs in the city. This will include an emphasis on both SAFE AND RELIABLE TRAFFIC FLOW throughout the city which is key to our growth and quality of life.

Kevin will advance innovative ways to improve the traffic signal technology so we can MANAGE TRAFFIC FLOW MORE EFFICIENTLY. As Mayor, Kevin will work with city staff and elected officials to IMPROVE THE TRAVEL

TIME RELIABILITY of our corridors. Our travel in Pearland should not vary from day-to-day. Under Kevin’s leadership, our transportation system will be dependable.

Kevin will work closely with the Transportation Policy Council to leverage regional dollars to help us with local project funding. He knows H-GAC, how they operate and will lead the city into the future to ADDRESS OUR NEEDS FOR GROWTH AND MOBILITY. Kevin will lead Pearland as we update the city Major Thoroughfare Plan which will be our ROADMAP FOR THE FUTURE OF SMART CITY GROWTH AND PROSPERITY.

RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Kevin believes both that the City's TAX RATE IS TOO HIGH and that its DEBT BURDEN IS TOO HIGH, and that both are huge concerns for the city.

Kevin will lead Council to direct staff to get SPENDING ACCOUNTABILITY OF EVERY LINE ITEM IN THE BUDGET. Kevin led a similar effort when serving on Council in 2007/2008. As a result, they REDUCED SPENDING by $600,000 by asking two questions: Is the line item still meeting its intended purpose?

Is the intended purpose still needed?

Kevin will ensure that the same effort is applied to future budgets.

Kevin will use his City Council and professional experience in challenging staff to KEEP THE 2019 VOTER-APPROVED BOND PROJECT SPENDING TO A MINIMUM.

There is a “real voter fraud sweatshop” for these propaganda preachin’ non-believers, who are truly, the known brain-washers out there!

All who made threats on Aubrey R. Taylor and shared their disgust publicly and privately, this Buds for You! The “Relic Politicians” that never made a difference, ARE NOW sparring relentlessly with Olympic Grade Energy on multiple social media platforms, which they never displayed while in office… Your fight is with The Surveillance Company and that Investigator, not Aubrey. Every last one of you… All are “Scurred” of this so-called ‘white man’. You won’t go pokin’ around to threaten him. Naw…ya’ won’t, because he will put something on y’alls asses!

You always try to reach for the low hanging fruit, it’s an easy target! Because it will take YOU to get out in front, PUBLICLY with much effort and money, “did I say money? to go after ‘the white man’ and find out about him, contact him and threaten him! No you won’t do sh**…You washed up Politicians, losers and sucka’s are all talk!

To all of those who read this newspaper and factual articles, a word of advice: “Go investigate the investigators, plain and simple.”

Don’t talk about it, Be about it!

The Problems

Those in power, those who still believe they are in power, those whom have created a false sense of power, those who thirst for power in government and ahh yes, the world of wielding power in Politics. This newspaper strives to reveal important information about real issues, so that the “Conscious Voter”

The days of “YOU” cowardly past-tense Politicians, just simply saying it’s “SO” & considered the “gospel truth” are over! The brainwashing misinformation of “YOU” telling it to be so… & divisive Racist Rhetoric?.... and “NOBODY” factchecking “YOU” are over!

The People of District “D”, Houston, Harris County and all over Texas are “WOKE”. The long decades running “Fruitless for the People Platforms” created by those Politicians, has truly been what is FACT-CHECKED: “OPPRESSIVE TO THE BLACK & LATINO VOTERS”, Yes, it’s proven strategy to mire the old-school loyal Voters in poverty, chaos and detriment. The American People who cast their decades long loyal votes are way overdue change from the emotional heart-string votes to the true & factual accountable votes.

Mostly the Black & Latino Community Voters just won’t research, nor ever hold their Politicians accountable, never. For over 50 years…It’s always been…I tell you what you wanna’ hear, rub your shoulder, pat you on the back, listen to you m-a-y-b-e 10 to 20 seconds, make sure you “VOTE” for me, I listen?

Covid-19 and Maintaining Your Voter Registration

I

OPINION by CHRIS DANIEL

In these trying times, we are all experiencing new hardships--including loss of income and even eviction.

You still have the right to vote. Covid-19 might have affected you personally or your family, but you will still have a chance to shape the future of Houston and Harris County by voting.

Recently evicted, homeless, etc.? --you have certain rights under the law regarding your right to vote. Those rights are determined by whether you were registered before or after your involuntary change in address.

Registered beforehand? Notify the local voter registrar about your change in status and where you intend to live next. You will receive a new, corrected certificate.

You will be able to vote with your new precinct information 30 days after your notice has been received.

Meanwhile: You may vote a full ballot with your former precinct information if your registration has not become effective with your new precinct information in time for the current election.

Didn’t get a chance to register? The law is clear that you have the right to register to vote so long as you meet the residency requirements, even if that is a shelter, church, park, etc. The key is to provide a mailing address that you can easily receive mail at in addition to the approximate physical address you maintain your current (hopefully temporary) residency. Your new registration card will have both the approximate physical location and the mailing address where you are sending the card.

The goal is to maintain your precious right to vote.

Some may still find themselves on the voter suspension list. If your registration is in “suspense”, you can still vote.

Your voter registration is NOT cancelled. “In order to maintain the accuracy of the voter roll, voters put on suspense who have not provided the voter registrar with a new Harris County address are to be removed from the voter roll in accordance with Sec. 16.032 of the Election Code. The Election Code specifies that a suspended voter is to be removed (purged) from the voter roll on the November 30, of the even year after the voter has been

on suspense for two general elections. The voter registrar maintains a list of suspended voters purged from the voter roll.”

A voter whose status is on suspense is eligible to vote in an election provided that the voter completes a Statement of Residence either when voting by mail or at the polls prior to voting (within the same county as the voter’s current registration) or (if the voter has moved to a new county) completes a Limited Ballot application during Early Voting at the main early voting polling place. A voter on Suspense who has moved within the same county would be allowed to vote on Election Day by returning to the precinct in which the voter previously resided and completing a Statement of Residence at that time.
