Riverside Election Integrity Team

Ensuring Transparency, Integrity, and Citizen Engagement in Riverside County

Purpose

The Riverside Election Integrity Team is a non-partisan group of concerned Riverside County citizens dedicated to upholding Article IV, Section 4 of the United States Constitution by actively protecting the integrity of our local elections.

We work to ensure that every election in Riverside County is conducted lawfully, transparently, and honestly—where only eligible voters cast ballots, every lawful vote is accurately counted exactly once, and no fraudulent or illegal votes dilute the voice of legitimate citizens.

Through election observation, poll monitoring, voter-roll maintenance advocacy, evidence-based reporting, and community education, and constructive engagement with election officials, we stand as vigilant guardians of the republican form of government that the Constitution guarantees to the people of California and Riverside County.

🔍 The Audit Findings: In Plain English

We want to be completely transparent about how we checked the election numbers and what we found. Here is exactly how we did it:

1. Where We Got the Numbers

Every single number we used came directly from the Riverside County Registrar of Voters (ROV). We submitted official public records requests to get copies of the original paperwork filled out during the election:

Vote Center Ballot Statements (The daily receipts from local voting locations) Click here to see a sample
Vote-By-Mail Collection Forms (The logs from drop or drive up collection teams) Click here to see a sample
Daily Mail In-Take Forms (The only form showing USPS incoming mail-in ballots) Click here to see a sample

2. How We Did the Math

We didn't invent these numbers, and we didn't use guesswork. We took the county’s own signed forms and followed a simple formula:

Total Ballots Collected - Rejected Ballots = The Official Legal Vote Count

📋 Strict Chain of Custody: Every single one of the Vote Center and VBM Collection forms was hand-signed by official ROV staff or temporary election workers. They signed these documents under penalty of perjury, meaning these are the county’s official, legally binding records.

3. The Bottom Line

When we added up all of the county's official paperwork and subtracted the ballots they flagged as invalid, the county's final reported results did not match their own math.

The numbers are off by exactly 45,896 ballots.
