Interestingly, in 2020 Harris County entered into a contract with Runbeck Election Supplies, and have continued to renew their contracts since. I referenced the Auditors office to see how much money the County has already paid out to Runbeck since entering a contract with the company. Just for the FY of 2020, Runbeck was paid out $1,221,111 from the county. In 2021, Runbeck Election Supplies was awarded another contract by the County for an additional $937,534 to print out more mail-in-ballots. Yet, the county has only paid $40,000 of that contract to Runbeck over the past year.
What I couldn’t understand is, why did the county go with several mail ballot printing companies? In 2020 Holly Hansen of the Texan wrote about Harris approving an additional $12 million to provide mail-in-ballot for all voters citing COVID.
Why did Runbeck only get paid out $1.2 million of the $12 million Harris County approved for the mail-in-ballots in 2020? Harris County Commissioners Court approved a $1.53 million contract with Runbeck Election Services to print and process mail-in ballots for the county.
Was Runbeck tasked with only printing *certain* ballots?
Did Runbeck only get a job with printing out a specific number of mail-in-ballots for the county?
Runbeck had bought a patent for a “ballot duplication system and methods thereof” on October 10, 2019, shortly before COVID was unleashed onto the world. Perfect timing for an election printing services company to purchase a patent, yes?
Mail-in or drop-off ballots create opportunities for voter error and fraud. In a typical election, one in 20 mailed ballots are rejected, according to recent studies. More than 534,000 mail-in ballots were rejected during the 2020 Democratic primaries alone
According to Paul Sperry’s article regarding the mail-in-ballots which were printed by the SAME company Harris County used in the 2020 Elections:
Suzi Voyles, a veteran Fulton poll manager who audited the Nov. 14 recount at Georgia World Congress Center, testified she examined several stacks of ballots of about 100 ballots each from a cardboard box marked “Box No. 5 — Absentee — Batch Numbers 28-36.” She said these ballots “came from the ballot [drop] boxes that had been placed throughout Fulton County.”
Suzi Voyles, poll manager: "One batch stood out. It was pristine."
“Most of the ballots had already been handled; they had been written on by people, and the edges were worn. They showed obvious use,” she wrote in her Nov. 17 affidavit. "However, one batch stood out. It was pristine. There was a difference in the texture of the paper,” and these mail-in ballots hadn’t been folded even though they ostensibly had been removed from envelopes.
All but three of the 110 ballots in the bundle — which had been labeled “State Farm Arena” — were marked for Biden and appeared to be “identical ballots."
The most “alarming peculiarity” was the identically marked ovals next to Biden’s name. In every ballot, “The bubble next to ‘Joseph R. Biden’ had a slight white eclipse in the bubble,” she said, leading her to believe that the batch of 107 Biden ballots had been “copied" from a single ballot.
Voyles speculated that “additional absentee ballots had been added [for Biden] in a fraudulent manner” at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta on election night.
The void she and other auditors witnessed in the exact same spot of the oval filled in on 107 ballots for Biden “was alarming to us,” Voyles said in an RCI interview. “Every single bubble was precisely alike. I had never seen that before in 20 years” of election monitoring.
I wonder, did Harris County receive the same sort of ballots from Runbeck?
IN 2020:
-Harris accepted $9.6 million from CTCL
-Used Runbeck ballots for VBM
-Employed an *alleged* DNC operative with no past experience running elections as the interim County Clerk.
-Borrowed voting machines from Fort Bend County, where the Election Administrator is connected to Konnech Inc.creator of the 'PollChief' software used by 'thousands of Election Offices across North America' built by ChineseBrief.com for the Confucius Institute.

Is Lena the winner already with these ballots?
