As CBS News' Major Garrett wrote in his book, the 2020 presidential election was “the greatest success of American democracy in history.” The worst thing you could be was an election denier like President Donald Trump. That election proved that elections are secure. Things could be different in 2026, though. As we told you earlier, Rep. Nancy Pelosi is worried that Republicans might try to "creep into the technology and create a false count." That reminds us of Green Party candidate Jill Stein in 2016, claiming that "people walking around with floppy disks hacked voting machines." These were probably Russians.
Now we're hearing that the thing that never happens is happening again. A former city councilman in California was sentenced to three years in jail after the sheriff's office found 41 sealed and completed mail-in ballots at his home, and data architect Larry Maloney discovered 71 names registered to Shakir Khan's address, phone number, or email.

The post continues:
… @larrymaloney helped local authorities uncover an elaborate voter fraud scheme Khan orchestrated to win his 2020 election.
Khan pleaded no contest to numerous criminal counts and money-laundering after the San Joaquin Sheriff's office discovered 41 sealed and completed mail-in ballots when searching his home, and Maloney discovered 71 names registered to Khan's address, phone number or email.
Khan was accused of taking advantage of the Pakistani community with his election fraud misconduct.

I thought we were reliably told that voter fraud didn't exist?

71 voter names at one address. 41 completed ballots found in his home. Three years in county jail. And we are still told that voter fraud does not happen at scale. How many Shakir Khans have not been caught?

Voter fraud is the only way Democrats can stay elected in California. Until we stop mailing ballots and have voter ID nothing will change

Will he be deported when he is released from jail? If not then California is still not taking elections seriously.

NOTHING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN SECURE ELECTIONS.
Example made, now we need more.
— MrPtP (@MrHBunce) March 3, 2026
Many, many, many, more examples.
I was assured that this does not happened because the United States has the most secure voting system in the world.

Especially mail-in ballots.
