A Minnesota Republican legislator who was influential in getting information to Project Veritas about Democrat ballot harvesting in Minneapolis has said that he did not go to the FBI with the allegations because he did not feel they would be properly investigated.

“I was not convinced that they were going to do an investigation and go in there,” Minnesota state representative Steve Drazkowski said of the FBI in an interview with right-wing pundit Michelle Malkin on Monday.

Because he could not trust the deep state, Drazkowski went to journalist James O’Keefe and his Project Veritas outlet instead. Veritas has exposed liberals engaging in corruption for years, and the Democrats have tried unsuccessfully to discredit him as a result of his sting operations.

“When we got to that primary beginning, one of the first things I saw…was a candidate for office that was sharing their frustration with the Somali community about the corruption they were seeing and wanted it to be cleaned up, and they wanted this to be America and not something that was corrupt,” Drazkowski explained.

“A few days later, there was another video that arrived, and it was one of the opponents of that individual really kind of sticking out their chest and boasting about how good their campaign was and how poor the individual who shared this about the integrity problem was,” he added.

Big League Politics has reported on how Veritas’ revelations have resulted in Minneapolis police investigating the ballot-harvesting scheme allegedly connected to Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN):

The Minneapolis Police Department has confirmed that it is actively investigating allegations of felony voter fraud and ballot harvesting after a bombshell Project Veritas report revealed that Democrat campaign operatives connected to Ilhan Omar have been carrying out an industrial-scale harvesting operation…

Campaign staffer Liban Mohamed can be seen in the sting openly boasting about possessing more than 300 ballots intended to elect Minneapolis councilor Jamal Osman in his car. Minnesota law only allows one individual to deliver up to three mail-in ballots for another person. It’s questionable as to why the Minneapolis Police Department are yet to make arrests, considering Mohamed is quite literally admitting to a serious election law felony on camera…

Another individual involved with the ballot harvesting ring goes on to confirm that unmarked ballots are being delivered to “people who work with Ilhan Omar” to be marked for a preferred slate of Democrat candidates. This is an even more serious violation of election fraud and identity theft.

Minnesota has suddenly become a critical swing state, with many predicting a conservative backlash to a summer of Black Lives Matter riots and crime. Even a small collection of fraudulent harvested ballots could swing the results of the state’s election, and even the national presidential contest.

With the FBI unwilling or unable to investigate actual corruption, perhaps they ought to be disbanded or replaced with an agency that will actually protect America’s electoral integrity.
