Kamala Harris Vote Dispute: Legal Challenge to Trump's 2024 Win Examined
A legal challenge has emerged in Rockland County, New York, questioning the results of the 2024 presidential election. The focus is on alleged discrepancies involving uncounted votes for Kamala Harris.
The Lawsuit's Core
Filed by SMART Legislation, the case centers on irregularities with voting machines in Ramapo, a town within Rockland County. These machines reportedly registered zero votes for the presidential race while accurately recording votes for Congressional and Senate races on the same ballots.
Evidence and Claims
Multiple voters and poll workers have submitted sworn affidavits, attesting that they voted for Harris but their votes were not reflected in the final count. SMART Legislation argues that this isn't a simple clerical error but a systemic failure that undermines voter trust.
Key Concerns
The lawsuit highlights concerns about undisclosed software updates made by vendor Pro V&V to the machines just weeks before the election. These updates, lacking public record, have raised alarms among transparency advocates.
What the Lawsuit Seeks
The plaintiffs are seeking a full hand recount of the ballots from the machines in question. The court has permitted full discovery, allowing subpoenas for machine logs, internal communications, and testimony from election officials.
Impact and Implications
While the lawsuit is unlikely to overturn Donald Trump's victory in 2024, it has the potential to expose vulnerabilities in the election system and influence future election standards and practices. Experts find the pattern of blank presidential votes suspicious, potentially triggering audits and policy changes to protect the integrity of future elections.
The case is scheduled for a hearing on September 22, 2025.
