📣 Dallas County GOP Chair Allen West Resigns The vendor-captured media is writing his resignation as a story about "conspiracy theories" and "chaos." It's not. It's a story about constitutional restoration, coordinated sabotage, and what 11 articles across 9 news outlets refused to report. 🧵 Thread: 1/ On March 3, 2026, Dallas County Republicans voted in their own precincts for the first time in years, restoring the constitutional framework of Art. VI §4: "elections by the people." Not chaos, step towards restoration. @DCRP 2/ The Sept 15, 2025 DCRP CEC voted near-unanimously for TWO resolutions under TEC §123.001(b)(2): ✅ Separate precinct-based primary ✅ Hand-marked hand-counted paper ballots West unilaterally killed the hand-count on Dec 30, 2025, no CEC rescission vote. Governance violation under TEC §171.022. 3/ 64 Dallas precinct chairs sent a formal objection letter (March 29, 2026). West's response: he had "no interest" in their requests, then authorized the letter's public release. 35 CEC members signed the petition that ultimately ended his tenure. The grassroots held the line. 4/ Dallas got half the plan on March 3: precinct voting on BMDs. The hand-marked hand-counted paper ballot piece was the piece that would have delivered real ballot box integrity was gutted by West before it had a chance to work. The sabotage worked. Then the chaos was blamed on the plan. 5/ The Texas Constitution protects FOUR things through one mechanism: 🔒 Secrecy-Art. VI §4 · TEC §52.062 · §122.001(a)(1) 🛡 Security-TEC §122.001(a)(4) ⚖ Purity- Art. VI §4 ("purity of the ballot box") 📋 Auditability - TEC §122.001(a)(10) One structural requirement delivers all four: every ballot in the box cast by a qualified registered voter from that precinct 6/ Purity = every ballot in the box is the same style, cast by verifiable voters from that precinct. No ballot can be picked out. No voter can be reverse-identified. The community can witness. The precinct roll can audit. Countywide polling + electronic poll books + commingled ballots destroys all four pillars at once. 7/ And this isn't just a CWPP county problem. Under TEC Chapter 85, early voting defaults to countywide access statewide. Small counties can preserve integrity, one location, precinct-specific check-ins, precinct-bounded ballot boxes. But most Texas counties run commingled ballots with electronic poll books pulling any ballot style on demand. That architecture enables large-scale undetectable fraud, by design. 8/ What actually went wrong on March 3 wasn't precinct voting. It was in big part: ❌ SOS TEAM system VoteTexas.gov misdirecting voters ❌ KNOWiNK ePollbook errors ❌ DCED refusing to print paper poll books ❌ Budget delivered Dec 23 with 8 days to review ❌ Coordinated vendor infrastructure failure 9/ Four Texas county official associations TACEO, CDCAT, CJCAT, TACA sent FORMAL warning letters to SOS Jane Nelson in October 2025 and February 2026 documenting critical TEAM system failures. The SOS did nothing. The failures happened anyway. Then Republicans got blamed. 10/ THE VENDOR-CAPTURED MEDIA: 11 articles. 9 news outlets. One coordinated message: NBC · CNN · Washington Post · CBS · ABC · Votebeat/Texas Tribune · KERA · KUT · Austin American-Statesman · Democracy Docket · Dallas Observer Same framing. Same omissions. Same false narrative. @VotebeatTexas @TexasTribune 11/ Not ONE of them reported: ❌ The CEC's near-unanimous September vote ❌ DCED's December 23 budget sabotage ❌ The 64-precinct-chair objection letter ❌ 1,100 Dallas volunteers who signed up ❌ Gillespie County 2024 precedent: 8,000+ ballots hand-counted, $29k+ reimbursed, ZERO contested results ❌ Dallas strong turnout despite coordinated obstruction 12/ They all repeated the same vendor-friendly talking points: "Conspiracy theories" "High costs" "Logistical challenges" "Trumped-up beliefs" "Voter suppression" None investigated the statutory violations. Part 2👇








Elissa Slotkin ADMITS Democrats lied about President Trump issuing illegal orders to the military: ABC: "Do you believe President Trump has issued any illegal orders?" SLOTKIN: "To my knowledge I am not aware of things that are illegal."
