BOARD COMMENTS
PUBLIC
COMMENTS:
Steve Rocco - Oral re:
Mark McCain, son of Albertsons CEO, who framed him for a crime
and murdered his family and friends died a felon and is in
hell |
Russell
Carter - Oral re: Provided information that he submitted to
California Highway Patrol (CHP) related to the search
for the shooters in the Aiden Leos case by reconstructing the
VIN number of the vehicle from the photograph released; he was
unaware of the reward until he saw an article in the paper and
has been trying since then to see if he qualifies for a reward
based on the information he provided to the CHP |
Nick Kolev - Oral re:
Was told the problem with his passport was resolved after
Supervisor Sarmiento followed up; the Clerk-Recorder would not
record his document and should provide more information to the
public on what documents can be recorded |
Cheryl - Oral re: Court
ready evidence was presented; EIPCA filed peremptory writ of
mandate; Judicial Watch case 2-24-CV3750; District Attorney
received information; United Sovereign America served cease
and desist letter; numbers reported by County and State do not
match; ballots received after deadline |
Iyla Tsegin - Oral re:
Conservatorship over his son Nate is example of deep
corruption in Orange County where conservator was paid
$158,000 per year for doing nothing for his son; resignation
of Board members, judges, public defender and social workers
who are all deeply corrupted |
Bryan Kaye - Oral re:
Letter from Kathy Chance thanking him for public comments at
meetings, reporting of hate crimes and human trafficking;
filing reports with the FBI |
Roseann
- Oral re: OC Chair of New California State, election has
until December 1st to cure ballots; machines that were
forced on voters can count votes 45,000 votes an hour yet it
is taking more than two weeks to count ballots; bomb scare at
Registrar of Voters led to evacuation of poll watchers but not
the employees for 15 minutes so they can sneak in extra votes;
voters choice makes elections unbelievable; investigate close
races as soon as they are reported because patterns in
reporting are consistent with an algorithmic result |
Daphne Ashbrook - Oral
re: Discrepancy in voting system under the Voter's Choice Act;
stamping ballots received too late; the country is laughing at
California because we are still counting ballots; states that
require voter ID turned red while states that do not went blue
|
Eileen McDermott - Oral
re: Visited the Registrar of Voters to observe and the area
where ballots are opened by machine had no cameras; drop boxes
are not secure; election field supervisor said elections are
secure |
Carolyn - Oral re: Opt
out of Voter's Choice Act; Registrar of Voters is still
processing provisional ballots; return to 1-day precinct
voting with paper ballots; save money by sending ballots only
to those who request to vote-by-mail, not everyone |
Shellie Okon - Oral re:
The lack of faith in the electoral process is concerning and
people need to work together to resolve; why can't the County
form a team to look into the elections |
Linda M - Oral re: In
California the election is still going while Florida had their
results reported in a few hours; duplication of ballots that
can be scanned; waste of the unused ballots that are not
returned, signature verification of those that are and no
reimbursement from the state for the costs |
George A - Oral re:
Observation of election at Registrar of Voters; discovered
that when he went to get his real ID at the DMV, his party
preference had been changed to Democrat when the DMV submitted
a voter registration during that process |
COUNTY
EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMMENTS:
