Voting Machine Internet Access and Colorado Election Security Concerns

On October 11, 2024, Ari Armstrong, Heidi Ganahl, Jim May, and Stephanie Pierucci joined the show. Writer and homeschool father explains why Amendment 80’s language could undermine parental rights by empowering bureaucrats to define quality education and granting children independent school choice rights Former gubernatorial candidate reveals that voting machines in 12 Colorado counties contain Wi-Fi access cards despite official denials, and discusses drop box security. The Hidden Problems with Amendment 80 Start listening at 18:07 – Hour 1 Ari Armstrong, a homeschool dad and writer for Complete Colorado, breaks down why the seemingly pro-school-choice Amendment 80 could actually undermine parental rights. The measure’s language states that “all children have the right to equal opportunity to access a quality education,” which Armstrong argues invites bureaucrats and judges to define what constitutes quality education rather than parents. Armstrong points to another troubling provision: the measure grants K-12 children the “right to school choice,” raising questions about what happens when a child’s preferences conflict with parental guidance. Neither homeschool communities nor Christian home educators were consulted during the measure’s drafting, yet they would be most affected by potential new state regulations. “Let’s not undermine the actual school choice we already have with a poorly written measure. And if we want to talk about something like a voucher program, let’s talk about a specific program and not this like punting the ball over to the courts.” Ari Armstrong, Writer, Complete Colorado Election Integrity Revelations Start listening at 33:41 – Hour 1 Heidi Ganahl, former gubernatorial candidate and founder of Rocky Mountain Voice, reveals troubling findings from her team’s investigation into Colorado’s election systems. Despite public assurances from Secretary of State Jenna Griswold that voting machines cannot connect to the internet, Ganahl’s research discovered that equipment in 12 Colorado counties was purchased with remote Wi-Fi access cards still installed. The investigation also uncovered accounting discrepancies with undeliverable ballots at post offices in nine of eleven counties examined. Ganahl has launched ColoradoDropbox.com to train citizens as drop box observers, noting that the state has nearly 14,000 drop boxes that cannot all be adequately monitored. She emphasizes the need for transparency and basic accounting practices to restore voter trust. “The public officials, especially Jenna Griswold, have lied to us. What we found through looking at the purchase information for the voting equipment in Douglas County and other counties is that it’s indeed purchased with a remote Wi-Fi access card.” Heidi Ganahl, Founder, Rocky Mountain Voice Ranching Heritage and Quality Beef Start listening at 64:02 – Hour 2 Jim May of Lavaca Meat Company discusses the health benefits of quality beef and shares how he began writing cowboy poetry after being introduced to the tradition through cattle buying operations in Elko, Nevada. May recites his first poem, written for his brother Dan’s 40th birthday in 2000, celebrating their family’s multi-generational cattle business. “I’ve really become a believer of what RFK is saying about, you know, all these high-process foods that we eat.” Jim May, Lav...
