Investigative Reporter Uncovers Disturbing Facts About Presidential Election in Wisconsin

A Democratic operative gained unprecedented access to the conference center in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where officials counted ballots on election night, investigative reporter Matt Kittle disclosed in recent stories.

Kittle, who is also executive director of “conservative information hub” Empower Wisconsin, obtained emails that reveal questionable activity during Wisconsin’s 2020 election. The Daily Signal has picked up his reports.

But it wasn’t until, I would say early March, that we started to get an indication from sources that things were worse than thought at first, particularly in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where there had been some real concerns about these third-party groups that were funded by Facebook’s CEO and founder, Mark Zuckerberg, to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars, and what those third-party groups indeed were doing in places like Green Bay.

Michael Spitzer-Rubenstein is the name of the long-time Democratic operative, who has spent the past several years working in voting activism roles, particularly on the tech ends of these things.

He was the Wisconsin lead for the National Vote at Home Institute. That is one of many left-leaning groups that were in this massive network from the Center [for] Tech and Civic Life, CTCL, which was the group that got $350 million in funding from Mark Zuckerberg, beginning in June, I believe, of last year. And that money was to go originally, and it did, to the largest cities in the country, particularly in battleground states.

…what was known as the “Wisconsin 5″—Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, Kenosha, and Racine—received…what we’ve been able to tally, it’s north of $8 million…

For cash-strapped election agencies and city clerks in Wisconsin, it was very enticing. This money, in some cases, like in Green Bay, it more than quadrupled their amount of election funding that they received in taxpayer funds. So this was a lot of money and it made a huge impact.

Spitzer-Rubenstein came in and he was integrally involved. I think there’s some evidence to suggest that he infiltrated a lot of the election administration that went on. He was doing everything in other groups that he was working with, doing everything from communications and get out the vote to PSAs and promos, to actually curing the ballots. We have emails showing him offering to do this in Green Bay.

But thankfully, I think one could say, the clerk, now the former clerk in Green Bay, Kris Teske, at every turn was saying, “There is a problem here. This doesn’t seem to be within the confines of the law.”

Now, in the email, it refers to an SSID. Essentially, a Wi-Fi network, more or less. But the email says, “One SSID will be hidden and it’s 2020vote. There will be no password or splash page for this one and it should only be used for the sensitive machines that need to be connected to the internet.”

So first off, why would a Wi-Fi network or SSID need to be hidden and only available for Spitzer-Rubenstein? And then, what exactly is meant by “sensitive machines”?
