Transcript
00:00:00.000
Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. Welcome to The Great America Show.
00:00:04.060
Good to have you with us as we pursue here each day truth, justice, and the American way.
00:00:10.320
Speaking of justice, the anti-justice department wants another $34 million with which to prosecute
00:00:16.960
January 6th demonstrators and, oh yes, Trump supporters.
00:00:21.120
They're working with the Marxist-Dem congressional leadership, the Marxist-Dem January 6th committee,
00:00:27.780
It's hard for me, I don't know about you, but it's hard for me to see how the corrupt
00:00:32.300
DOJ wouldn't get all that money from the corrupt Marxist-Dem's.
00:00:37.160
But I think, given the way the election is going, they better hurry up.
00:00:41.540
The January 6th committee has now subpoenaed President Trump for a deposition on November
00:00:47.800
Their criminal referral of two contempt charges against and subsequent trial of former Trump
00:00:53.220
advisor activist and podcaster Steve Bannon led to a four-month prison sentence, now on appeal.
00:01:00.200
Another Trump advisor, facing the same charges and criminal referrals, going to trial next month,
00:01:13.460
Just how vicious are these Marxist-Dem thugs in the Biden administration?
00:01:19.640
Bannon and Navarro are now the only presidential advisors in American history to face criminal
00:01:29.100
As the saying goes, elections have consequences, and with the midterms just over two weeks away,
00:01:34.980
we need to be sure that the Republicans win that election and make certain that among the
00:01:40.260
consequences will be the purge of that corrupt FBI and DOJ, and accounting for all in the
00:01:47.100
Biden administration who've been responsible for rampant corruption.
00:01:56.300
They've sent him on another vacation to Delaware.
00:01:59.240
He'll be at his Delaware compound, and later in Nevada, the Marxist Dems there will be campaigning
00:02:09.520
They're in so much trouble, they're trying to save incumbent Marxist Dem Governor Steve
00:02:14.820
Sisolak and Senator Catherine Cortez Masto, whose campaigns are flagging badly.
00:02:22.360
Bad enough that they're rolling out not only Obama, but Senator Bernie Sanders as well.
00:02:27.840
Now that's a pair to draw to, and I'm not sure I would do that if I were a Marxist Dem in Nevada.
00:02:35.340
Our guest today is Nevada businessman and candidate for Secretary of State, Jim Marchant.
00:02:41.580
2020 demonstrated for the Republicans and everyone else in the country just how important that
00:02:53.200
The Democrats understand how important that race is as well, obviously.
00:02:57.840
His opponent outspending him by a large margin, but the race is as tight as it can be, and
00:03:07.380
The Secretary of State job is just how important, in your view, and will you win it?
00:03:15.280
It has been a sleepy office for the Republicans.
00:03:18.620
The Democrats have known about it for a long, long time.
00:03:21.260
If you remember back in 2004, George Soros and Harry Reid spent tens of millions of dollars
00:03:27.460
on what was called the Secretary of State Project.
00:03:31.960
And what they did for the 2006 election was they got, gosh, probably seven or eight or ten
00:03:38.540
of their secretaries of state elected around the country.
00:03:42.000
And our country's in the shape it's in today because of that.
00:03:44.900
And all we're doing is countering, reversing what they did.
00:03:51.140
I put together a coalition last year of MAGA, America First Secretary of State Candidates,
00:04:01.480
They wanted to tilt the playing field in their favor.
00:04:04.540
All we want to do is tilt it back level and have everybody have a fair, transparent election.
00:04:13.600
If a Democrat wins, that's the will of the people.
00:04:22.600
What have you gotten done to make certain that there is no repeat in any way of the rigged
00:04:32.140
Well, we've done a lot of things behind the scenes, like put together plans for poll workers,
00:04:39.840
We've got attorneys that are on standby a lot more than they were in the 2020 election.
00:04:47.300
I have been going around the counties and trying to get them to not use the Dominion voting
00:04:53.140
machines and instead use a hand count paper ballot that has anti-counterfeit measures built
00:05:00.800
in so you can infuse the system with China ballots or any other counterfeit ballots.
00:05:08.920
I've gotten one county out here, Nye County, to do that and implement it for the 22 election,
00:05:17.580
And however, the establishment and the Democrats and, you know, just seems like the whole world
00:05:25.520
And we're being sued and there are roadblocks being put in front of us.
00:05:29.780
But the bottom line is, is we're going to have a system out here where we will know absolutely
00:05:35.940
for sure how the vote was accounted or the will of the people and it was accurately counted.
00:05:42.440
So you're saying that is, is it Nye County that we're talking about here?
00:05:48.940
Where the ACLU sued over the plan to do a hand count and as you say, move electronic voting
00:06:02.660
Are you going to have electronic voting come November 8?
00:06:07.340
And that's where we had to compromise because of the laws and the roadblocks that the establishment
00:06:14.940
So the bottom line is, though, we're going to know the accurate count because we are doing
00:06:23.840
Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada, a heavily funded George Soros organization,
00:06:29.400
and the ACLU sued two lawsuits and the judge has thrown both of them out so far.
00:06:36.480
So, but yeah, so we're, we're going to be able to go forward with a count where we will
00:06:44.520
And that's the only county I've been able to get it established in.
00:06:50.480
When I get in to be the Secretary of State, we're going to work and get all 17 counties on
00:06:57.440
And if we do, we will have a fair and transparent election in Nevada.
00:07:03.560
Well, I know that a number of states, Louisiana, Alabama, a number of others, have been pushing
00:07:16.780
And in full disclosure, I'm a witness in a trial with Dominion that is suing Fox, where
00:07:28.180
It gets a little complicated, but I want everybody to understand that.
00:07:32.360
What is the deal with this movement toward eliminating electronic voting in your, in your
00:07:42.960
I started programming computers back in 1984 and had three successful technology companies.
00:07:51.640
And being that I know the technology the way I do and how systems can be hacked, there's
00:07:57.380
no way we should trust our election system on a computer.
00:08:01.460
It's extremely vulnerable and far too complicated.
00:08:06.700
If you went through the process to see how they have to set these machines up every time
00:08:11.520
they, every time we have an election, it would be, you'd shake your head and say, wow, how
00:08:19.420
And they hire people from temp agencies to come in and set these things up that have
00:08:24.800
no experience, no way that they know how to do this.
00:08:29.040
So, and then on the other side is the Homeland Security came out with a document that's saying
00:08:36.660
that there are serious anomalies and vulnerabilities in these current machines and they haven't been
00:08:45.640
And so we just cannot trust our election system, something that enables us to have sovereignty
00:08:53.760
as a country on a machine or computers that can be hacked the way they're hacked.
00:09:00.060
So let me ask you this, because I've been covering this for two decades, electronic voting.
00:09:07.260
I go back to Diebold and Sequoia and the whole nine yards back in the early 2000s following.
00:09:14.700
Of course, the mess that was the 2000 hanging Chad election.
00:09:21.160
We have, over the course of that time, warning after warning about having private companies,
00:09:27.840
three of them, control 92%, process 92% of the vote in this country.
00:09:38.160
Three private companies, three private companies processing 92% of the vote.
00:09:45.980
How many of the secretaries of states and county clerks, in your judgment, Jim, could actually
00:09:51.400
know what was happening in those machines and verify that it was a true and honest and fair
00:09:57.200
election with proper processing and correct tabulation?
00:10:02.580
There's no way you can know because they won't share with us anything.
00:10:08.640
They won't share with us what's going on in there.
00:10:13.140
They won't even let us audit an election properly.
00:10:18.100
If they're so sure about how secure and fair their elections are, why don't they let us
00:10:24.400
And so that should tell you right there that something's going on, and we don't need to
00:10:31.800
And that's exactly what I'm doing with this coalition, America First Coalition, to establish
00:10:38.500
a system where we don't use computers, and we don't use machines that can be manipulated.
00:10:47.680
And you would think that a technology person like me who's made a good living off of writing
00:10:55.600
software to increase productivity for businesses would be in favor of technology.
00:11:01.900
But I know what's going on inside those machines, and it's evident.
00:11:07.840
I mean, the only anomalies we've found is enough evidence for me that we need to do something.
00:11:15.180
Well, you talk about anomalies, irregularities, that we all, anyone watching that race, that
1.00
00:11:22.520
election night, saw lots of anomalies and irregularities.
00:11:26.600
But so far, no one has produced that evidence sufficiently, at least in court, to demonstrate that it's
00:11:36.800
Dominion's fault, or ES&S's fault, or Hart, the other principal company.
00:11:45.180
Why is it so difficult for people to have a transparent view of this election and the way in which it's
00:11:55.200
tabulated and counted and processed and a paper trail created?
00:12:01.060
It just should be, with technology as sophisticated as it is, as I said, I've been covering this issue
00:12:09.780
Why in the world hasn't there been sufficient progress that includes transparency and absolute
00:12:15.700
rock-solid evidence of correct counting of the vote?
00:12:20.580
Well, it's my opinion that they don't want to expose, first of all, the incompetence that is in an election
00:12:32.400
I just, you know, it's my opinion that I believe that there is manipulation via the machines, and just the
00:12:38.800
total incompetence in doing an election is unbelievable.
00:12:42.520
It's so complicated, and that's why we've got to get back to a simple, simple election system, and that's exactly
00:12:57.400
Give us your, give us a sense of what you would do immediately once you take office.
00:13:03.060
Well, once I take office, I would continue to implement what I've been doing since November 4th, 2020,
00:13:10.620
is establishing the new election system that I would like to see here in Nevada, and then our
00:13:17.360
Secretary of State candidates around the country have also agreed that they would adopt a very similar
00:13:26.020
Of course, each state has laws, and it would have to be tweaked, but we understand that.
00:13:30.700
But the bottom line is we want hand counting on a precinct-level basis with any paper ballots with
00:13:39.920
We're actually going to track all of our ballots.
00:13:43.700
Let's track every ballot so we'll know where they are.
00:13:49.420
That's another serious issue that enables manipulation to go on, so we've got to do that, and all of
00:13:57.800
ours candidates have agreed we're going to bring it in-house and do it ourselves.
00:14:02.400
So bottom line is we've got to implement this new system to ensure that the people have a fair and
00:14:10.240
transparent election, and right now they don't have competence in our election system.
00:14:14.800
Way over 50 percent, probably even 60 percent, do not have competence in our election system.
00:14:20.420
There is great concern about the integrity of our electoral system, there is no doubt.
00:14:28.840
I want to turn to what you just mentioned it, the voter rolls.
00:14:34.620
In Colorado, the Secretary of State there managed somehow to run 30,000 illegal immigrants' names
00:14:44.180
through the system and to send out marketing material, a get-out-the-vote marketing material
00:14:54.380
Some critics suggested that she was trying to notify them it'd be okay to come in and register
00:15:00.960
and showing them how to register, as she was doing, legal citizens and legal voters as well,
00:15:07.580
But how in the world they got there was through also apparently a match list with something
00:15:14.640
called ERIC, the election system that was funded at least in part initially some 12 years ago
00:15:22.860
by George Soros, one of George Soros' funds and nonprofits, also run by Dave Becker, who
00:15:33.320
has quite a reputation as a liberal activist in elections.
00:15:38.460
He's no longer there, but he was instrumental in its early setup and its activities.
00:15:44.420
Give us your sense of what in the world is going on and how many of these accidents we can expect
00:15:55.740
ERIC is an organization that was established a while back, like you said, and we believe that
00:16:01.960
in part, or initially it was funded by George Soros and run by very liberal people that probably
00:16:12.380
And Nevada is a charter member of ERIC, and we use ERIC out here.
00:16:18.180
And when I get in, we're not going to use them anymore.
00:16:20.920
We're going to bring it in-house, and we're going to ensure that our voter rolls are proper.
00:16:27.180
We're going to check and make sure you're a citizen also.
00:16:30.440
And we've got a whole story out here where, through the DMV, illegals are being registered
00:16:37.040
every day and have been being registered since 2018 when our Secretary of State signed a memorandum
00:16:43.860
of understanding saying, answering a lawsuit from the unions, SEI union, I believe, and La
00:16:53.380
Familia Voda, they threatened to sue our Secretary of State back then if she confirmed if people
00:17:11.200
And they could easily do that because back in 2017, when I was assemblyman, we passed a
00:17:19.240
driver's authorization card for illegals, and I did not vote for it, by the way, just
0.99
00:17:24.080
so everybody knows, but it did pass because we were controlled by Democrats, and so they
00:17:33.400
So now when they come into the DMV and do anything, get a driver's authorization card or
00:17:39.860
registration or whatever, and they're illegal, they don't check.
00:17:43.420
So it allows them to register without being checked, and that's something else that I am
00:17:52.820
Well, can anything be done about it between now and November 8th?
00:17:58.140
They're probably going to vote, and they've been voting.
00:18:05.520
Well, I agree, and that's why they're scared to death when I get in.
00:18:12.920
I'm looking at the most important election, midterm election in this country's history
00:18:17.200
coming up here in three weeks, and you're telling me no one in the state of Nevada apparently
00:18:22.120
cares enough to start bringing legal proceedings or putting people in jail for voting illegally.
00:18:28.960
And I don't think they're going to be voting Republican, do you?
00:18:35.900
You know, if I had George Soros money, I would sue as a civilian.
00:18:39.540
But, you know, it takes so much money to do it.
00:18:43.500
That's why nobody's sued to change this procedure.
00:18:50.540
Well, somebody – so what – just how much of 2020 is going to be repeated in Nevada this
00:18:58.640
Well, you know, once again, we – most of our counties out here and probably across
00:19:06.040
So we just have to hope that we have – some of the things we've done behind the scenes
00:19:13.840
And what's more important, I want the people listening to understand this, you have to get
00:19:21.460
Because if we get out in mass and vote and the turnout is massive, we can overcome any
00:19:31.800
So I want to encourage everybody, you've got to get out like this is a presidential election.
00:19:38.300
And typically in the midterms, there's not a lot of turnout, but this time our country
00:19:45.140
If we do not take over the House and Senate in this election, I fear for what our country
00:19:52.600
is going to be in six months if we don't win this election in the next few days, the
00:20:11.100
Well, that – and as Doug Mastriano running for governor, Republican running for governor
00:20:18.560
in Pennsylvania said, we make sure that we've got two people, two Republicans at every polling
00:20:24.260
place in the country, or we're not going to have a fair vote.
00:20:28.880
You know, it's like Stalin said, he doesn't care who the hell votes.
00:20:40.860
They won't allow us to get within 60 feet of the people counting the votes here in Clark
00:20:49.460
Somebody needs to crawl in under that barbed wire and find out what's going on.
00:20:56.440
We've got a lot of things going on behind the scenes that we're going to have people
00:21:01.100
more educated about what's going on inside there.
00:21:04.600
We're going to have more attorneys available.
0.80
00:21:14.260
So we're trying to do things within the law to mitigate this election a little bit, just
00:21:21.860
And once we get in, then it's going to be fixed.
00:21:25.700
Just like I said the other day when President Trump called me on the stage in Nevada, that's
00:21:35.280
And boy, did the news media – their heads exploded when I said that.
00:21:42.200
Well, if the news media's heads were to explode, you know, a lot of people would say that wouldn't
00:22:04.420
The attorney general is running ahead, correct?
00:22:08.920
You've got three critical positions that are very important to the country.
00:22:14.000
Give us a sense of why you believe we're going to prevail in this election, because
00:22:22.140
it's pretty – actually, it's very dark to consider what you said about the integrity
00:22:31.160
And it's not a big state in terms of population.
00:22:34.640
It looks to me like it ought to be pretty easy to wrangle, you know, the folks who are
00:22:41.640
going into those polls and be sure that they're squared away.
00:22:48.200
I mean, people are sick and tired of paying $6 a gallon for gas.
00:22:54.960
They're tired of their mortgage rates going up.
00:23:00.120
When they go into a supermarket, first of all, even if you're able to find what you want in
00:23:05.080
the supermarket, you pay an arm and a leg for it.
00:23:08.740
And then all the regulations that's coming from the government.
00:23:12.760
I mean, it just makes businesses – it makes it impossible for them to operate.
00:23:17.540
We talk about this all the time on The Great America Show.
00:23:26.200
You've got foreign policy crises, whether it's Taiwan and China and Ukraine and Russia.
00:23:38.740
We're now in what will be most likely a third quarter of contracting GDP.
00:23:45.160
We are tearing up the middle class of this country.
1.00
00:23:51.340
It's Joe Biden, who's nothing more than a Marxist-dim puppet and an impaired puppet at that.
00:23:57.320
And so why – how in the world can anyone with a conscience who gives a dag gum about
00:24:11.080
I think that if we had a fair and transparent election, we wouldn't.
00:24:17.820
And, you know, people are just tired of the economy the way it is.
00:24:24.040
Because we've been talking – you're talking about you've got to stay 60 feet away from
00:24:29.900
What's the point of having a poll watcher if they can't watch?
00:24:38.360
How is it that Democrats get to do all the counting in the state of Nevada?
00:24:43.280
That is a good point, and that is exactly what the problem is.
00:24:50.600
We have Republicans that have applied to be election workers who do get to watch the
00:24:56.740
vote counting, and it's a minority of who's in there.
00:25:01.720
Well, why doesn't somebody go into a judge, a superior judge there in Clark County, and
00:25:07.880
say, this is bull, and let's get it fixed right now?
00:25:11.120
Surely the Republicans could scrap together enough money for that to be done, to make
00:25:17.160
certain that there is a fair, even-handed distribution of poll watchers and, by the
00:25:25.880
And we have, but unfortunately, the judges don't rule in our favor.
00:25:34.860
I mean, weren't you – I don't mean to make light of this, but where the heck did
00:25:42.620
It's our only – the only way we can – the only place we can do it.
00:25:47.460
It seems to me like there's – a lot of people have missed a lot of points in the
00:25:58.200
Well, maybe somebody ought to get to work on that, too.
00:26:02.120
I mean, we have all of our state party chairman out here, Michael McDonald, and the county
00:26:11.320
You know, we let everybody know who to vote for, including the judges.
00:26:15.840
But, you know, once again, it has to go through the corrupt system.
00:26:20.180
So, that's why the Secretary of State offices are so critical to this election and this cycle,
00:26:31.560
And once we get that fair and transparent, that kind of stuff won't happen anymore.
00:26:36.440
And I just feel that, because I go around the state of Nevada, and actually, I go around
00:26:42.740
And I can tell that if we have a fair and transparent election, most every state in our
00:26:52.640
That's the biggest hypothetical I've heard in a long time, because your condition preceding
00:27:01.700
If you are sitting here three weeks out from that election, the National Republican Committee
00:27:11.200
They've been talking about how they're going to have a lot of people on the ground.
00:27:14.500
I heard the same thing from Ronna McDaniel, by the way, in 2020.
00:27:23.340
And to something of a, to me, it looks like a leisure club, rather than a fire-breathing,
00:27:36.860
I don't know what to say to you, because everything's dependent on this year's count, and I don't
00:27:42.800
see much that's changed in this, based on what you're saying, in the state of Nevada.
00:27:51.860
But I'm hoping that we've done enough that we can mitigate it just enough to get in this
00:27:56.740
one time, because if I get in as Secretary of State, I can guarantee you going forward,
00:28:01.800
while I'm in office, we will have a fair and transparent election.
00:28:05.420
And if that happens, I believe that we are a common-sense red state that will vote in
00:28:14.280
politicians that are common-sense politicians, that will not vote for higher taxes, will not
00:28:20.620
vote to spend our money, our taxpayer money, ridiculously, will not burden businesses anymore.
00:28:28.840
As a matter of fact, we want to take burdens away so they can operate, because that's the,
00:28:33.580
you know, that's the engine to our economy is the small businesses.
00:28:36.980
And we've got to enable them to be able to operate and start and operate.
00:28:42.020
And that's exactly what will happen when we get common-sense politicians in office.
00:28:49.880
You were talking about Soros spending millions of dollars back in 2006 on the Secretary of State
00:28:58.200
They were smart enough to do that 16 years ago.
00:29:08.460
What we need is not common-sense, in my opinion, if I can argue with you on this, Jim.
00:29:12.520
We need some sharp operators who actually are thinking hard and working harder.
00:29:17.640
And I don't see many Republicans, frankly, in the national organization.
00:29:20.820
I'm only speaking about the national organization.
00:29:26.560
And I don't know what they think their job is, but it isn't to get anybody elected who
00:29:31.200
talks like you and sounds like you and works like you have been doing.
00:29:42.200
My point is, this is not, you know, no matter what, those Dems knew 16 years ago how smart
00:29:50.680
and how important the Secretary of State job is.
00:29:55.720
And you're talking about kind of sneaking around them.
00:29:58.460
I don't see how you sneak around them because they've been there first.
00:30:02.020
They planted their flag, and they're not going to let Jim Marchallant walk in there, you
00:30:13.460
They're going to try to stop us, but that's how important it is.
00:30:16.960
And, you know, to your point a minute ago, the Republicans have been blocking me more
00:30:22.060
than the Democrats, and that's what's very disappointing.
00:30:28.420
In my primary out here, the Republicans, Mitt Romney, Soros, and the whole crew.
00:30:40.420
Yeah, the establishment, Karl Rove even helped.
00:30:44.660
But they spent $2.5 million against me in a Secretary of State race primary, and they
00:30:53.920
And they just made outright lies, and I still won by 17% and 38,000 votes, even though I
00:31:08.920
George Soros just dumped another $7 million into Nevada.
00:31:12.620
And I don't have enough money to go up on TV, and it's a miracle I'm still ahead in the polls.
00:31:26.880
I stayed on the MAGA message after the primary.
00:31:32.040
They want to hear that we're doing something about our election system.
00:31:35.640
And that's exactly what I've been doing since November 4, 2020.
00:31:39.320
What we're seeing nationally, too, is a real movement among the Hispanic voters to ward the
00:31:47.320
Is that also happening and happening big in Nevada?
00:31:51.740
And one of the things I did is I hired a Hispanic outreach person that was written up in the
00:32:00.000
And Hispanics are coming over our way in droves out here, and also other minorities, too, but
00:32:10.680
I should get over 40%, 45% Hispanics out here in this election.
0.90
00:32:19.120
I'm wishing you all of the best of luck in your campaign and your election.
00:32:24.300
We think you'd make an outstanding Secretary of State.
00:32:28.880
And thank you for everything you're doing to try to improve the state and the country.
00:32:45.080
Jim Marchant, running for Secretary of State in Nevada.

Here tomorrow will be Mark Fincham, running for Secretary of State in the great state of
