YouTuber Nick Shirley<\/a> released a video highlighting California\u2019s negligence in maintaining its voter rolls<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Shirley was joined by a whistleblower, who discovered inconsistencies and potential fraud within public voting roll records from the California Secretary of State. The roughly 22-minute video shows Shirley and the whistleblower visiting the listed addresses of registered voters, discovering that there were irregularities in the number of voters registered per location, voters inaccurately aged at 125 years old, among other suspicious issues.<\/p>\n

\u201cCalifornia is the breeding ground for voter fraud in America, as millions of people vote with no ID, month-long election processes, inaccurate voter rolls, dead people caught voting, even a dog successfully registered to vote, and voter verification is all based on your signature \u2014 not who you actually are,\u201d Shirley wrote on X.<\/p>\n

Shirley visited a public storage unit, where five people were registered to vote. Three of those individuals cast a vote in the 2024 presidential election. Under state law, it is illegal when registering to vote to give an address that isn\u2019t your primary domicile. Shirley and the whistleblower also visited a mail store where 30 people were registered to vote.<\/p>\n

\u201cWithout any voter ID and negligence from the state government to update their voter rolls, California\u2019s one-party state has created a complex system where fraud is inevitable in their voting process,\u201d Shirley wrote.<\/p>\n

Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom\u2019s press office dismissed the claims in Shirley\u2019s video, saying the YouTuber came up \u201cempty.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter hyping \u2018massive fraud\u2019 for a month, Nick came up empty \u2014 so he posted a video about a Republican who committed voter fraud, got caught, and was prosecuted,\u201d the California press office wrote.<\/p>\n

\u201cSlow Shirley is welcome to extend his visit and enroll in California\u2019s free community college. He clearly needs it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shirley pushed back against Newsom, pointing out that people are illegally registered to P.O. Boxes and calling the state\u2019s voter rolls a \u201cmess.\u201d<\/p>\n

The release of Shirley\u2019s video comes as President Donald Trump and Republican lawmakers push for the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act (SAVE Act), requiring voters to show proof of citizenship when they register to vote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"YouTuber Nick Shirley released a video highlighting California\u2019s negligence in maintaining its voter rolls.
