Minneapolis Police Investigating Alleged 'Cash-For-Ballots' Voter Fraud As O'Keefe Teases "Financial Transaction" Tyler Durden Mon, 09/28/2020 - 21:47
The Minneapolis Police Department announced Monday evening that they would be investigating allegations of 'vote harvesting' by supporters of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) following an explosive Project Veritas exposé.
"The MPD is aware of the allegations of vote harvesting," tweeted the Minneapolis PD. "We are in the process of looking into the validity of those statements. No further information is available at this time on this."

O'Keefe's latest video features Minneapolis resident Liban Mohamed - who brags on tape about illegally collecting some 300 ballots from Somali immigrants in an effort to help his City Councilman brother, Jamal Osman.
What's more, the journalist teased a "cash-for-ballots financial transaction ON TAPE" in a Monday night Twitter poll.
We have the cash-for-ballots financial transaction ON TAPE.

Should we launch it tonight? #CashForBallots
Mohamed called O'Keefe "Fake News" in a Monday tweet, according to the Daily Mail.
The Veritas video also featured Somali political operative Omar Jamal - who said he believes ballot harvesters are hired to take advantage of elderly members of the Somali community.
Omar spokesman Jeremy Slevin said the claims were "amplifying a coordinated right-wing campaign to delegitimize a free and fair election this fall undermines our democracy."
President Trump took to Twitter late Monday evening, calling the allegations "totally illegal," and that he hopes that "the U.S. Attorney in Minnesota has this, and other of her many misdeeds, under serious review."
This is totally illegal. Hope that the U.S. Attorney in Minnesota has this, and other of her many misdeeds, under serious review??? If not, why not??? We will win Minnesota because of her, and law enforcement. Saved Minneapolis & Iron O Range! https://t.co/yete31P680
