PAPILLION- A recent investigation into allegations of widespread voter fraud, which was funded using $88,000 of taxpayer dollars allocated by Sarpy County Attorney Lee Polikov, found no evidence of voter fraud and only a handful of mistakes by poll workers, none of which would have changed the 2020 general election results. The investigation explored allegations from 52 different affidavits gathered by activists who went door-to-door following the election to compile information on potential voter fraud.
The 32-page report, issued last Friday after almost a year of work and litigation, said many of the 57 complaints raised real concerns surrounding the integrity of Sarpy County's election system, but were found to be largely untrue. The report did, however, reveal several local issues that appeared during the election. In one instance, a county poll worker thanked a voter for showing their ID before Nebraska required voters to show one, which election experts claimed might've dissuaded other voters in line without a valid ID from voting.
Another voter was given the wrong ballot for a congressional race in Sarpy County, but had already turned it in before being issued the correct ballot, disallowing them from voting again. These issues, according to the report, can be easily fixed through better training for poll workers. Despite this, the Nebraska Voter Accuracy Project questioned Polikov and his fellow investigators about the accuracy of local voting machines, adding that allowing Secretary of State Bob Evnen to decide which precincts get randomly audited to check voting machine counts was unfair.
