OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — On a quiet Saturday in an Omaha hotel, about 50 people gathered in a ballroom to learn about elections.

The subject wasn't voter registration drives or poll worker volunteer training. Instead, they paid $25 each to listen to panelists lay out conspiracy theories about voting machines and rigged election results. In language that sometimes leaned into violent imagery, some panelists called on those attending to join what they framed as a battle between good and evil.

Among those in the audience was Melissa Sauder, who drove nearly 350 miles from the small western Nebraska town of Grant with her 13-year-old daughter. After years of combing internet sites, listening to podcasts and reading conservative media reports, Sauder wanted to learn more about what she believes are serious problems with the integrity of U.S. elections.

*******************************

I have a thought for Ms. Sauder: instead of paying $25 and spending 8 hours listening to these folks, why not go to your local elections office w/ your concerns and ask about what the election processes in your district do to alleviate your concerns?

Ms. Sauder is right. She is trusting the wrong people. She just paid these grifters $50 bucks so the grifters could lie to her and her daughter.
