In a groundbreaking order issued by Honorable Judge Laurie M. Earl on Dec. 17, 2020; the judge in the Raji Rab v Secretary of State Alex Padilla, et al. Election Contest Lawsuit has ordered the respondents (SOS Alex Padilla, LARRCC Dean Logan, LA Board of Supervisors) to “…preserve all evidence until this case is finally resolved.”

This order means that Judge Earl is officially recognizing that there is evidence that must be preserved in the physical inspection request Petitioner Raji Rab had asked for. Rab had not requested a motion for the order to “preserve all evidence” but the judge made the order anyway. This is a huge step forward for Rab’s case as this is the farthest an election contest has ever moved in modern California History. Rab is very close to receiving an inspection of the internal logs that would show the exact time the vote count was accessed.

For those who may not have been following Raji Rab’s Election Contest, it has now been over 8 months since Rab has filed a lawsuit alleging Election Malconduct due to fraudulent access of vote count 10 days prior to March 3, 2020 Primary Election Night 8pm in Los Angeles, California when vote by mail ballots were scanned into cast vote records and made instantly accessible.

According to Rab’s Second Amended Writ of Mandate(SAW),

Respondent Logan illegally scanned and counted VBM ballots, tampered with tally system and illegally accessed ballot count 10 days before the election, caused an error in the vote-counting programs or summation of ballot counts thus invoking Election Code §16100 (a) and (g). Election results are plainly illegal, and court ordered manual recount is necessary in the interest of justice. Here Respondent BOS, SOS both have breached their duty to stop Logan from his Malconduct of crossing the boundary of law, limitation of his duty under the law and protect the purity of voter expression. Petitioner has been aggrieved by the breach of duty by the BOS and SOS. Both BOS and SOS’s failed oversight aided and abated Respondent Logan into harming Petitioner in the March 3, 2020 Primary Election causing malconduct and invoking Election Code §16100 (a), (g).

After filing his SAW on Sep. 23, 2020, Rab was quickly met with demurrer attempts by the opposition’s privately-hired but public-money funded lawyers from Collins Collins Muir + Stewart, LLP. Rab is acting Pro Se or “representing on one’s own behalf” against an entire law firm, several county counsels & Clint Woods…the Deputy Attorney General at the California Department of Justice

Rab has dealt with various delay tactics from the respondents. Respondents have tried to dismiss the case on technicalities via demurrers and overblown claims like when they tried to claim Rab was “inciting a riot” when Rab showed up at the Downey Tally Operating Center with 2 Candidates, 2 members of the media and 1 observer for an expected inspection of the premises on August 13, 2020 that was once again delayed.

This order issued by Judge Earl to the defendants to “preserve evidence” comes after Rab had filed a MOTION TO COMPEL RESPONDENTS FOR INSPECTION OF PREMISES AND THINGS on Dec. 11, 2020 and subsequently after Respondents Alex Padilla, et al. had filed a Notice of Motion of LARRCC for PROTECTIVE ORDER on Dec. 12, 2020

This Dec. 17 order is not Rab’s first big breakthrough, earlier this year Rab managed to receive the VSAP Tally system’s OPERATION MANUAL through the discovery process where the opposition sent over 16,000 pages of material and Rab was able to find a needle in the haystack diagram that scientifically proves the point that THERE IS accessibility as soon as ballots are scanned through the machines; contrary to statements made by election staff.

After finding this diagram, Rab had not one but two Computer Science experts each with over 20 years of experience in the field take a look at the diagram. The two experts confirmed and are willing to testify in court to what Rab, with his several years of IT experience as well, was suspecting…As soon as ballots are scanned through the Smartmatic Tally system, they are instantly ACCESSIBLE. When the LARRCC, under Dean Logan, scanned vote by mail ballots 10 days prior to 8PM election night, they broke the law. They violated Election Code 15101 (b) to be exact.

The hearing for Raji’s Motion to Compel Inspection is scheduled to occur on Jan. 6, 2021 and the court will simultaneously hear on the Respondents motion for Protective Order. Respondent’s are asking for a protective order to deny Rab’s continuing demand for a physical inspection of the Downey Tally Operation Center and specifically “deny an inspection of electronically stored information constituting ‘database logs,’ ‘application logs,’ ‘system logs’ and ‘Cassandra logs…’” their main reasoning being that this protective order is “necessary to protect RR/CC against unwarranted annoyance, embarrassment, oppression, undue burden and expense.”

Surely an inspection into our election systems is too “embarrassing” and “annoying” to even consider. The over 1,600 petition signers for a Petition to release vote count machine evidence would DISAGREE. Candidates Maria Estrada for CA State Assembly 63 & Elizabeth Castillo for CA State Senate District 33 who have filed election contest lawsuits would also disagree.

Why would election officials of the largest County in the United States located in the 5th Largest economy in the world (California) be so keen to hide in those logs?

Rab counters the respondents plea for a Protective Order in the most recent legal exchange by the parties by cleanly spelling out the fact that when discovery was served, the Respondents did not make this motion for protective order for several months until now when Rab had filed the motion to compel. This shows that Respondents were anything but “prompt or timely” which is a requirement set forth in the statute to file a protective order.

Rab had accepted several delays in the inspection with the LARRCC refusing to let Rab inspect the logs and only try to let him “visually inspect” the machines. Rab did not accept this and tried to inspect the machines and get a hearing done before the Nov. 3 general election so that further fraud could be prevented but was denied multiple times and the judge had set the hearing for the Second Amended Writ of Mandate far beyond when Rab had filed on Sept. 23, 2020 to January 22, 2021.

Being an on-the-ground witness at the LARRCC Offices and reading through all the legal paperwork in Rab’s lawsuit has shown me that our election systems in the United States are clearly flawed. The huge Lack of Transparency in the supposed “most democratic” and “progressive” state in the Union has shown me that if there is no transparency in a very wealthy county in a very wealthy state and we cannot expect there to be transparency across the nation. Should the people let election officials i.e public servants go without scrutiny? Or should we just trust that these officials are just doing their jobs?

Raji Rab is fighting for one of the most fundamental rights we hold as a nation: our right to vote. It is becoming increasingly clear in these tumultuous times that democracy is falling right before our eyes. This is not a partisan issue. This is our right to vote and we need to fight.
