Some Big Questions to answer on how City of Green Bay Wisconsin handled this election:
Why were anti-Trump mayoral staff involved in processing the absentee ballots at the KI Center?
Did the Mayor and his staff violate state law in running the election? #maga #wiright #GreenBay
Green Bay's City Clerk was on a leave of absence. Under Stat 62.09(5) when a municipal officer is temporarily unable to do their duties, the governing body (city council) may appoint a person to discharge the officer's duties until the officer returns.
Did the Green Bay City Council ever vote on an Acting City Clerk? Or did the Mayor's Office simply take over the running of the election. The Green Bay Mayor is Eric Genrich, a former Democrat State Assemblyman from 2013 to 2019.
The Green Bay Mayor's Community Liaison is Amaad Rivera, a Massachusetts Democrat (former Sen. Markey staffer).
Amaad Rivera has made it his mission over the past 4 years to resist/stop/defeat/fight Pres. Trump. In May 2020, in his speech to become a DNC delegate, he said "I know that Wisconsin and the rest of the country needs us to defeat this POTUS in November" wisdems.org/wp-content/upl…
Amaad Rivera ran for Massachusetts State Senate in 2018, where one of his main platforms was to resist President Trump #stopthesteal
Rivera previously said in 2017 he rejoined Sen. Markey's staff because "he also wanted be part of the fight against Trump." wmasspi.com/2017/02/briefi…
In 2017, Amaad Rivera organized Resist Trump Tuesday Rallies in Massachusetts masslive.com/politics/2017/…
And in 2018, Amaad Rivera spoke to a Massachusetts anti-fascism rally, promising "We are going to be fighting for equal justice until we can get rid of Trump"
So an anti-Trump Mayoral staff with a clear conflict of interest wouldn't be allowed anywhere near ballots with President Trump's name on it, right? Wrong! Here's Mayoral Staff running operations at the KI Center absentee ballot counting
While the Deputy City Clerk was at City Hall all night, election observers tell me that Amaad Rivera was running most of the absentee ballot processing on election night, where final GB numbers were not reported until 5am on Wednesday morning.
Thankfully a reporter told us all about processing errors at the Green Bay KI Center, where votes were transferred from damaged ballots, error filled ballots were counted, and other irregularities were cured by election workers
This needs a thorough outside investigation of how Green Bay ran the election & processing of 31,000 absentee ballots. The Trump Campaign should demand it.
How can voters have confidence in an electoral system that has known partisans counting, processing, and "curing" ballots?!
