Audit the Vote event on 6-24-24, Harrisburg, PA

On 6/24/24 Toni Shuppe of Audit the Vote PA, and a group of Patriots gathered in Harrisburg at the state capitol to express concerns with our current election system and the voters lack of confidence in it. The purpose was to highlight the numerous problems with utilizing machines in our elections, the lack of interest by many election officials and to provide a demo of the hand counting process. There are many benefits to hand counting: saves money, it is transparent, get results in one day and increase voter confidence that their vote is accurately counted. In addition, we had 3 elected officials in attendance and who spoke and gave their support: Senator Cris Dush, Representative Mike Jones, and County Commissioner Tom DiBello. Also in attendance was Senator Doug Mastriano, who assisted in making it happen. It was a great day!
