Michele Bachmann Warns: Pre-Printed Ballots Could Be Smuggled In From China, Stored In Minnesota Bar

“So could you have a more perfectly framed scenario for fraud? So in this kind of scenario, it’s entirely possible that you could have ballots already filled out. In fact they could be printed in China. They could be routed through various countries so you can’t detect them. Make their way into Minnesota, be in a barn somewhere. Until after the election day is over, you count up the ballots and you say, ‘Gee, how many more do we need? Oh, we’re short 48,000?’ No problem, you go out and you haul the ballots in.” – Former GOP Rep. Michele Bachmann, who has somehow not been forcibly committed.

https://www.joemygod.com/2020/09/michele-bachmann-warns-pre-printed-ballots-could-be-smuggled-in-from-china-stored-in-minnesota-barns/



So China is going to print ballots (those ballots will be correct for all local elections and those ballots will also have the tracking #s that will match the individual Minnesota voters’ ID #s who had applied for absentee ballots)
and then smuggle them into Minnesota via Kenora, Ontario and then boat them across the Lake of the Woods and then unload @ a fishing camp close to Warroad, Minnesota and then truck them to a barn in Albert Lee, MN
and when “they” get “the phone call” that Duluth needs another 2,300 Biden votes they will ship those ballots to Duluth BoE where they will be accepted and counted?

And to think some DUer think Bachman is crazy.

That Bachman still thinks she is relevant shows you just how off the rocker this washed up politician is. She is beyond delusional but she represents mainstream GOP dogma.

they won't be storing those ballots in the basement of a pizza parlor in DC?

You know, I remember a time when conspiracy theories were well thought out, backed up with evidence and facts. Now these nuts don't even try to make their stories somewhat credible. They just say whatever pops in their head and you have to wonder how even that is possible.

is the precision with which ballots need to be printed in order to be read properly.

~2000 Cleveland had a disaster with ballots that it had printed at some theoretically acceptable printer. (I can't quickly find an article on it, unfortunately)

Obviously, Bachmann is priming herself as a fiction writer. Or perhaps, a contributor to QAnon where it's all about the excitement of the hunt and chase. The details of this are hilarious, a labyrinth of twist and turns that wind up in the mysterious Minnesota barn.

Miss Crazy Eyes proves herself a lunatic. But then we knew that.

Warroad and Albert Lea are way too populated.

They will offload in Zippel Bay. The barn is in Eitzen which is why they didn't want the CDC teams poking around there.

take them to Mille Lacs. You can offload the ballots onto a boat and keep them in international waters until you need them. As long as you don't scare the fish, no one will notice.

Once she teamed up with the Fundy Churches in Brooklyn Park and found a willing bunch of Stupids to exploit,well she suddenly was not a DFLer but know a born again Grifter. We B Parkers on the West Side knew just how dangerous her Rhetoric was and once she played the Fundie Card,that proved us right.
