Todd Wiltgen's deceit and secret maladministration are prejudicial to the public interest
a call to action
Dear Friends,
My latest before the county board. Watch here or below. Dwane Rauscher followed me. Dwane said I had their attention today because I mentioned Pillen’s name (in connection with statute).
TRANSCRIPT
A letter to Jim Pillen regarding Todd Wiltgen.
Governor Pillen,
Nebraska revised statute, hereafter NRS 32-214 states:
The election commissioner shall be responsible for the enforcement of the Election Act. The election commissioner shall be removed when it appears that his conduct is prejudicial to the public interest. If the election commissioner is appointed by the Governor, the Governor shall remove the election commissioner. If the Governor fails to remove the election commissioner, ANY citizen of the county may institute an action to order the Governor to remove the election commissioner.
I am hereby requesting that Todd Wiltgen be removed from his position as Lancaster County election commissioner according to NRS 32-214 for the following reasons:
1) First and foremost, it is in the public interest to have an election commissioner who understands and honors his oath of office. Wiltgen's job is to protect the people's elective franchise from unqualified voters and secretly manipulated vote counts. He has failed in both respects. Wiltgen is prejudicial to the public interest in that his allegiance is to the secret "election" processes of Secretary Evnen and ES&S, over, above and against the public interest of his county constituents in transparent, honest and publicly verifiable election results.
Transparent and publicly verifiable election results facilitate the peaceful transfer of power. Secret vote counts are the antithesis of transparent and verifiable election results. Wiltgen refuses to provide any election transparency or verifiability or auditability whatsoever. Hand counts of two or three races in two or three precincts does not constitute an audit when it comes to computerized elections where cheaters can easily compartmentalize fraud.
2) Wiltgen is even prejudicial to the public interest in simply reconciling basic election records, in as much as he is unwilling to provide a list of voters from a given election that can be reconciled with the number of votes.
3) Wiltgen is prejudicial to the public interest in knowing the truth. He claims that our paper ballots constitute the cast vote record. That is NOT true. It is a blatant falsehood. Wiltgen also claims that casting votes is the people's business while counting votes is his business. Again, a blatant falsehood. Elections are the people's business from beginning to end.
4) Wiltgen is prejudicial to the public interest in citizen watchfulness to make sure he is enforcing the Election Act, as required by NRS 32-214, which necessarily includes enforcing the spirit of the Act, as found in 32-207, which is to administer fair elections that are verifiably free from outside influence. Wiltgen does not want to deal with bad actors, so he simply assumes they don't exist.
Wiltgen is prejudicial to the public interest in being watchful citizens, period. He recently publicly called a group of watchful citizens "malicious conspiracy theorists."
It is in the public interest to have checks and balances in government. There are no meaningful, public-facing checks and balances in Wiltgen's administration of our elections.
It is in the public interest to have watchful citizens. According to the engraving over the front door of our Capitol building, The Salvation of the State is Watchfulness in the Citizen. Watchfulness, not trust.
It is in the public interest to have verifiably honest elections, because many important decisions, many important lives and many billions, if not trillions, of dollars hang in the balance. No one can honestly say that they do not want verifiably honest elections. If they did, they would betray themselves as being dishonest.
It is in the public interest to have an election commissioner who follows 32-102 and liberally construes the Election Act so that the will of registered voters is not defeated by the way in which he conducts the election or certifies the results.
Todd Wiltgen's thinking and conduct concerning the administration of Lancaster County elections is prejudicial to the public interest.
Governor Pillen, for the reasons stated above, We, the people of Lancaster County, call upon you to remove Todd Wiltgen from his position as Lancaster County election commissioner.
Respectfully,
Robert J. Borer
