Kamala Harris won the U.S. elections: Bombshell report claims voting machines were tampered with before 2024:
A new report is stirring fresh debate about the outcome of the 2024 U.S. presidential election, claiming that voting machines were secretly altered before ballots were even cast. The bombshell allegation raises a serious question:
Did Kamala Harris actually win the 2024 election
?
According to the investigative piece from Daily Boulder, a private lab quietly implemented sweeping changes to voting machines used in over 40% of U.S. counties ahead of the 2024 race. Those changes, the report claims, were made with no public notice, no formal testing, and no third-party oversight.
What changes were made to voting machines before the 2024 election?
The report centers around Pro V&V, a federally accredited lab responsible for certifying voting machines in key states like Pennsylvania, Florida, New Jersey, and California. In early 2024, the lab reportedly approved updates to ES&S voting systems, which included:
New ballot scanners
Printer reconfigurations
Firmware upgrades
A new Electionware reporting system
Instead of labeling these as major changes, Pro V&V classified them as 'de minimis,' a term typically reserved for insignificant tweaks. This classification allowed them to bypass public scrutiny and avoid triggering full-scale testing or certification processes.
But watchdog group SMART Elections wasn't convinced. In their words:
Live Events
'This wasn't just a glitch in some sleepy county. It was a stress test of our entire system.'
Soon after the machines went live, complaints began to surface.
Were votes miscounted or ignored in key counties?
In Rockland County, New York, several voters testified under oath that their ballots didn't match the official results. Senate candidate Diane Sare reportedly lost votes in precinct after precinct:
In one district, 9 voters claimed they voted for Sare, but only 5 votes were recorded.
In another, 5 voters swore they supported her, but only 3 votes appeared.
It wasn't just third-party candidates who saw odd results.
In multiple Democratic-leaning areas, Kamala Harris's name was reportedly missing from the top of the ballot entirely. Voters said they couldn't even find her name to select. These same areas had high support for Democrats like Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, yet Harris received zero votes—a statistical anomaly that defies traditional voting patterns.
Even more shocking: Donald Trump received 750,000 more votes than Republican Senate candidates in these districts. As reported by Dissent in Bloom, a political Substack,
'That's not split-ticket voting. That's a mathematical anomaly.'
Who is behind Pro V&V, and why is there no oversight?
At the center of the controversy is Jack Cobb, the director of Pro V&V. While he doesn't appear in the headlines, his lab certifies the machines that millions of Americans use to vote. According to the report, once the controversy began to gain traction, Pro V&V's website went dark, leaving only a phone number and a generic email address. No public logs. No documentation. No comment.
Pro V&V is certified by the Election Assistance Commission (EAC). However, once accredited, labs like Pro V&V face no real public oversight. There is no hotline, no review board, and no formal process for the public to challenge or remove them.
The EAC itself has four commissioners, two of whom—Benjamin Hovland and Donald Palmer—were appointed by Donald Trump during his first presidency. Even if wrongdoing were discovered, the process to revoke a lab's accreditation is slow, murky, and entirely internal. There are no public hearings and no outside investigations.
As of June 2025, Pro V&V remains fully accredited and uninvestigated.
Could Kamala Harris have actually won the election?
The question is no longer whispered in political corners—it's being asked outright. In May 2025, Judge Rachel Tanguay ruled that allegations raised by SMART Elections were credible enough to move forward. The case,
SMART Legislation et al. v. Rockland County Board of Elections
, is scheduled for hearing this fall.
While the lawsuit won't change the outcome of the election—Congress already certified Trump's victory—it could set off wider probes, from state investigations to federal criminal inquiries.
Political writer John Pavlovitz openly questioned the result, writing:
'Kamala Harris may have won.'
During the campaign, Harris reportedly drew massive crowds, high early voting numbers, and strong poll performances in swing states. Her debate showing against Trump was widely viewed as dominant—Trump even skipped the second debate.
And yet, despite that momentum, Trump won.
Adding fuel to the fire, Elon Musk, who vocally supported Trump, posted cryptic tweets during the 2024 cycle, including:
'Anything can be hacked.'
Later, Musk stated:
'Without me, Trump would have lost the election.'
Trump himself added to the speculation, telling supporters:
'He [Musk] knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide.'
The upcoming court case could become a pivotal moment in election security history. The lawsuit claims that a private company quietly changed voting machines in over 40% of U.S. counties—and no one knew until after the votes were counted.
The implications are serious:
Could future elections be altered without oversight?
Should the EAC change how it certifies and monitors voting labs?
Is the public being kept in the dark about the technology behind their vote?
SMART Elections warns this isn't just about one race:
'If one underfunded watchdog group can dig up this much from a quiet New York suburb, what else is rotting in the shadows of this country's ballots?'

Trump backs call to arrest California governor Newsom over border row

Newsom, a Democrat, responded that he hoped he would never see the day that a president called for the arrest of a sitting governor in the United States Reuters Los Angeles US President Donald Trump on Monday said he would support the arrest of California Governor Gavin Newsom over possible obstruction of his administration's immigration enforcement measures amid protests in the state. Trump border czar Tom Homan on Saturday threatened to arrest anyone who obstructed enforcement efforts in the state, including Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. Both sharply criticized the Republican president's deployment of National Guard troops to Los Angeles. "I would do it if I were Tom. I think it's great. Gavin likes the publicity but I think it would be a great thing," Trump said when he returned to the White House. Newsom, a Democrat, responded that he hoped he would never see the day that a president called for the arrest of a sitting governor in the United States. "I don't care if you're a Democrat or a Republican this is a line we cannot cross as a nation this is an unmistakable step toward authoritarianism," Newsom said in a post on X.

Trump Suggests Arresting California Governor Newsom Over LA Protests: 'I Would Do It...'

Last Updated: Trump's remarks on Newsom came as Democrats and Republicans clashed over one of the biggest flashpoints in his efforts to deport illegal migrants. US President Donald Trump has suggested the arrest of California Governor Gavin Newsom, as federal and state officials clashed over his decision to send in National Guard troops to quell violent protests against immigration raids in Los Angeles. As the city faced a fourth day of protests over Trump's immigration policies, Democrats and Republicans clashed over one of the biggest flashpoints in Trump's efforts to deport illegal migrants. California officials have blamed Trump for inflaming an already tense situation by sending in the National Guard. Trump said on his Truth Social platform that he had deployed National Guard troops 'to deal with the violent, instigated riots" and 'if we had not done so, Los Angeles would have been completely obliterated." He said Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass should be thankful to him but chose to lie to the people of California. Returning to the White House after a night at Camp David, Trump was asked by a reporter whether his border czar, Tom Homan, should arrest Newsom. Homan had threatened to arrest anyone who obstructs immigration enforcement efforts. 'I would do it if I were Tom. I think it's great. Gavin likes the publicity, but I think it would be a great thing," Trump replied. California Vs White House Earlier, Newsom vowed to sue the federal government over its deployment of the Guard, calling it unlawful. 'This is exactly what Donald Trump wanted. He flamed the fires and illegally acted to federalise the National Guard. We're suing him," he said. His remarks came after violent protests swept Los Angeles, where demonstrators had torched cars and security forces fired tear gas in violence that local officials stressed remained localised. These protests were triggered by immigration raids and dozens of arrests of alleged illegal migrants and gang members. At least 56 people were arrested over two days of protests and three officers suffered minor injuries, said the Los Angeles Police Department. LA Mayor Bass said the immigration raids were designed to stir tensions and Trump's move to send in the National Guard was a 'recipe for pandemonium". However, the White House argued that sometimes violent demonstrations justified ramping up deportation efforts even further. It also stressed that the protests were a further reason for Republicans in Congress to pass Trump's 'one big beautiful bill" that would increase border security and military spending. Trump accused Newsom and Bass of playing down the violence. 'The very incompetent 'Governor," Gavin Newscum, and 'Mayor," Karen Bass, should be saying, 'THANK YOU, PRESIDENT TRUMP, YOU ARE SO WONDERFUL. WE WOULD BE NOTHING WITHOUT YOU, SIR." Instead, they choose to lie to the People of California and America by saying that we weren't needed, and that these are 'peaceful protests." First Published: June 09, 2025, 23:38 IST
