With the recent expiration of the federally mandated 2-year window for preservation of 2020 presidential election records, counties across the country have been inundated with public records requests from Americans concerned about election integrity.
During his “Moment of Truth Summit” last month spotlighting 2020 presidential election irregularities, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell exhorted “every single person in the country” to ask for cast vote records from the election from their local county clerk’s office. His website links to the Ordros Analytics, Inc., website , which provides templates of public records requests for cast vote records.
Cast vote records are files that list “information about one ballot in the order [that it was] processed,” according to Ordros Analytics, which has a master Cast Vote Record repository of counties that have released their records. The record “will contain all of the votes made on that ballot … This allows a data analyst to ‘replay’ the election ballot by ballot to spot unnatural patterns of voting.”
According to the instructions provided by Ordros Analytics for submitting public records requests for cast vote records, those records contain no information that could identify voters.
Cast vote records show, in order, patterns of voting for a particular candidate, which is a model that should reveal whether further investigation is necessary, according to Phill Kline, director of voter integrity watchdog The Amistad Project. Such records ought to be retained automatically, he told Just the News on Wednesday, adding that “scientifically valid, risk-limiting audits are a way of doing that.”
Under federal law, states and localities must preserve federal election records for 22 months after each election. That minimum window for the 2020 presidential election elapsed on Sept. 3, so as of that date states were legally permitted to destroy their 2020 records, barring additional state preservation requirements.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
