‘Disturbing’: Trump-loving election official backs QAnon after organizing ‘Audit The Vote’ rally in South Carolina

September 06, 2021


The impartiality of elections in Beaufort, South Carolina is under question after a local elections official pushed conspiracy theories about the 2020 election and QAnon.


"A member of the nonpartisan Beaufort Elections Commission appointed by City Council to certify Beaufort's elections was the main organizer of a political rally held in Beaufort last week that sought to '#FightBack' and audit the results of the 2020 presidential election," the Hilton Head Island Packet reports.

Trump won Beaufort County, receiving 54% of the vote to Joe Biden's 44%.

"Helen Spalding, appointed in February to a six-year term on the city's elections commission, shared multiple videos and photos referencing the rally on her social media pages. A flier advertising the event, also shared on social media, listed Spalding's email address for RSVPs," the newspaper noted.

One photo posted to Instagram included the caption, "WWG1WGA" — which is a Qanon phrase for "where we go one, we go all."

Her pic is included but it is from Instagram and I am not able to post it.

Also says another rally is scheduled for Sept 11.

1. The Kool-Aid went deep into this one.

Why does the press in most parts of the country pretend this stuff is only a difference of opinion?

To claim there were significant irregularities leading to an illegal outcome of a federal election is to indict those who oversaw that election. That is not merely a personal opinion, it's an accusation of criminal activity on the part of election officials and staff.

I think the only way to respond to this is for those officials to sue for false criminal accusation or slander the people who keep accusing with no evidence.

2. My Home, My Birthplace

Nothing but red meat everywhere you look. Why on earth would someone want to audit our election results? Were they not close enough to 100% for these clowns?

I happen to live in the extreme Northern tip of Beaufort County.My side of the street is the 6th Congressional Disrict of James Clyburn. The other side of the street is the 1st Congressional District of Nancy Mace.

There are some certifiable kooks here. They think that the Buy Bull is the final word on everything. I just stay indoors and keep to myself.

5. Oh, hey - another ES&S voting system county

It's the company the GOP doesn't have solidly in its pocket.

And somehow, only ES&S counties get this treatment.

I guess getting a live image of the Maricopa, Az server wasn't enough.

Or maybe they're just after all that voter personal data that parties are usually not privy to & ES&S won't just hand it over to them like certain other companies.

9. I thought ES&S was solidly owned by some reQublicOns.
