Can you believe that Harris County Republican Party Chairman Cindy Siegel (bottom left) voted along with the four Democrats who make up the Harris County Elections Commission to appoint Clifford Tatum as the new Harris County Elections Administrator? Did Cindy even do any sort of research on Clifford Tatum prior to casting her vote for him? Did Cindy even know that elections that have been presided over by Clifford Tatum as the Elections Chief have been equated to those that take place in Third-World countries? Now, I can totally understand Teneshia Hudspeth (Democrat Harris County Clerk) voting to appoint Clifford Tatum. I can also totally understand why Odus Evbagharu (Harris County Democratic Party Chairman) voted to appoint Clifford Tatum. I can also kind of understand why Ann Harris Bennett (Democrat Harris County Tax Assessor-Collector) voted to appoint Clifford Tatum. And we all know why "Democratic" Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo cast her vote to appoint Clifford Tatum as the replacement for Isabel Longoria. But Cindy?
Here's the Statement that Was Made by Harris County Republican Party Chairman Cindy Siegel on the Hiring of Clifford Tatum
“Given the major failures of the March primary managed by the previous unqualified and inexperienced Elections Administrator, the Harris County GOP remained vigilant during the search process for this replacement. I have concerns about the short amount of time to prepare for the November election, but I am optimistic that Mr. Tatum will do a better job and has more experience than the previous Elections Administrator. However, I am still concerned about the firing of certain long-term employees with institutional knowledge, which occurred after Ms. Longoria submitted her resignation in March. Dismantling the institution causes a breakdown in the transition process and I believe that issue should be looked into and addressed by the new replacement.” You can "CLICK HERE" to see how other local members (Channel 2) of the media are covering this story.
Here's the Statement that Was Made by Alexandra del Moral Mealer on the Hiring of Clifford Tatum
“Today, Harris County voters are saying, “here we go again!”
We are about to have our third appointee overseeing the County Election Administrator’s office before the midterm elections. We were the only county out of all 254 counties in Texas who failed to count our votes within 24 hours, as required by law. Embarrassingly, our county made national news for incompetence by an appointee who is not even directly accountable to the voters.
The switch from elected officials overseeing our elections to an appointed administrator, championed by Lina Hidalgo, has led to thousands of misplaced ballots, issues with polling machines, and delayed results – by any measure this experiment has been an abject failure.
Following the resignation of disgraced former Elections Administrator Isabel Longoria, our county had an opportunity to return the oversight of our elections to someone competent, local, and accountable, County Clerk Teneshia Hudspeth, a Democrat whose office traditionally has been tasked with conducting our elections. Prior to her own election, our current County Clerk worked under four County Clerks serving that office for nearly two decades. Instead, Lina has opted for a nominee who isn’t from Texas and isn’t intimately familiar with our electoral process.
We need our election officials to be accountable to voters, transparent, and competent. Under current county leadership, we have none of that.
Alexandra is a West Point graduate, a dual-degree holder from Harvard University (JD/MBA), and a proud wife and mother. She is blessed with two precocious toddlers who she is raising alongside her husband Clay, a fellow West Point graduate, and combat veteran. On November 11, 2021, she announced her plans to leave the private sector and her career in oil & gas finance to pursue a new stage of service.” You can "CLICK HERE" to see how other local members (Channel 2) of the media are covering this story.
Why didn't the nearly all "DEMOCRATIC" Harris County Elections Commission appoint Teneshia Hudspeth as the new Harris County Elections Administrator? Well, you have to understand that Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis, is actually acting as the Harris County Judge, and the Harris County Commissioner for Precinct One, right now. So, to get a better picture of why Teneshia Hudspeth, the current Harris County Clerk was passed over, you have to go back and look at the role Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis played in forcing Diana Trautman one of the "GOOD DEMOCRATS" to resign.
A Conspiracy to Influence the Outcome of the 2022 Midterm Election on November 8th in Harris County Is What's Unfolding
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
I would like to make myself perfectly clear today!!! Look, I do not believe for one minute that Diane Trautman vacated her post as the Harris County Clerk purely because of health reasons back during the 2022 Presidential Election.
In case you don't remember, Diane Trautman fought hard to become the County Clerk for Harris County, Texas. And in my book, she's an honorable woman, a great human being, and one of the best people I know. Diane Trautman loves Harris County, Texas, and loved her job. That being said, I do not for one minute believe that Diane Trautman would have knowingly participated in any scheme to steal votes by way of "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTING" in any way shape, or form.
Now, just for the record, some of the 'alleged' harvesters that I've talked about over the course of the last two years have direct connections to her previous campaign.
However, some of the "GOOD DEMOCRATS" like Diane Trautman are a little afraid of some of the Black folks I've found to be involved in the "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTING" schemes that my investigative team and I have been working diligently to expose and dismantle.
I believe that there are a lot of "GOOD DEMOCRATS" like Diane Trautman who are going to get swept up in the "ABSENTEE BALLOTING" investigation as collateral damage at some point in the very near future. Meaning, that as the investigations currently underway progress, the authorities are going to begin to piece this conspiracy to unfairly influence local elections together.
HERE'S THE 3-WEEK TIMELINE OF EVENTS LEADING UP TO DIANE TRAUTMAN'S RESIGNATION DUE TO SUPPOSED HEALTH REASONS
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
Back on 4/15/2020: Colleen M. Vera filed a complaint with the Secretary of State for Texas regarding "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTING" in Harris County, Texas. You can learn more about what was included in Colleen M. Vera's report by clicking this link and visiting the "TEXAS TRASH TALK" website. Now, in case you don't know, some of the evidence that was submitted inside Colleen M. Vera's 2-year investigation included a direct tie between Diane Trautman and at least one "DEMOCRATIC OPERATIVE" my investigative team and I are very familiar with.
Back on 4/22/20: Colleen M. Vera went live with her evidence via the "TEXAS TRASH TALK" website which included evidence about Diane Trautman, the Harris County Clerk included. You can click here to learn more about the alleged "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTING" scheme.
Back on 4/28/20: Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis approved $12 million for Diane Trautman to expand "ABSENTEE BALLOT VOTING" or what many call the "MAIL BALLOT VOTING" for the Tuesday, July 14, 2020, Primary Runoff Elections, and the Tuesday, November 3, 2020, Presidential Election as well. Now, please note, that money was earmarked inside the budget for Diane Trautman to send "MAIL BALLOT APPLICATIONS" to every 65+ voter inside Harris County, Texas -- whether they wanted to receive a "MAIL BALLOT APPLICATION" or not.
Back on 5/1/20: Ken Paxton, the Attorney General for the State of Texas sent a letter to every Texas county judge and other election authorities warning them not to mislead voters by using the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic fears as a "DISABILITY" to vote by mail. Now, in case you don't know, the press release sent out by Attorney General Ken Paxton called out Diane Trautman, the Harris County Clerk by name, and also called out Harris Judge Lina Hidalgo specifically for crossing the line. In his letter, Attorney General Ken Paxton also stated that criminal charges could result.
From 5/4/20 to 5/7/2020: Dr. Diane Trautman spent a lot of time trying to get "GUIDANCE" from the Texas Secretary of State on how to carry out the "MASS MAILING" of "MAIL BALLOT APPLICATIONS" without crossing the line that had been drawn in the sand by Attorney General Ken Paxton. According to published reports, the Texas Secretary of State Ruth R. Hughs (at the time) did not respond to Diane Trautman's requests.
Back on 5/7/20: The Texas Secretary of State notified Colleen M. Vera that sufficient merit has been found as it related to her 2-year investigation into "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTING COMPLAINT" and that it had been forwarded to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton with a recommendation to investigate the allegations. You can "CLICK HERE" To learn more about Colleen M. Vera's allegations.
Back on 5/7/20: After not receiving a response back from the Secretary of State, Diane Trautman reported in a "ZOOM MEETING" that she "WOULD NOT" be mailing "ABSENTEE MAIL BALLOT APPLICATIONS" to every 65+ voter in Harris County, Texas. Then, according to my sources, Harris County, Democratic Party representatives began pressuring Diane Trautman and questioning why the "MAIL BALLOT APPLICATIONS" would not be mailed out -- to which Diane Trautman 'allegedly' said that she would not do it in the current environment.
Back on 5/9/2020: According to many of my sources, the Harris County Democratic Party fought and continued to pressure Diane Trautman, the Harris County Clerk at the time, tooth and nail as it related to getting more "ABSENTEE MAIL BALLOT APPLICATIONS" out to voters age 65 and older.
BAD POLITICAL CLIMATE
Some of my sources felt that it was the mounting pressure from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, coupled with a lack of response from the Texas Secretary of State that caused Diane Trautman to take her stand against what the Harris County Democratic Party was trying to do in terms of flooding Harris County with unsolicited mail ballot applications. However, according to a few of my Democratic sources, who were close to Diane Trautman, I was told that Trautman had expressed fear and that she did not feel that the "POLITICAL CLIMATE" was right to pull off what her Commissioner Rodney Ellis and others wanted her to do by way of flooding Harris County, Texas with unsolicited "ABSENTEE MAIL BALLOT APPLICATIONS" back during the 2020 Presidential Election.

Here's the Statement that Was Made by Harris County Democratic Party Chairman Odus Evbagharu, on the Hiring of Clifford Tatum
“Following a nationwide search, the election commission is thrilled to select Clifford D. Tatum as the county’s new elections administrator. The commission worked well together to reach our decision, and Mr. Tatum was unanimously selected in a 5-0 vote. Mr. Tatum has an impressive background in leading elections — currently with the DC Board of Elections and prior to that as general counsel for the U.S. Election Assistance Commission. We are excited to bring him on board. Mr. Tatum’s elections experience — combined with a background in information security and elections law — make him perfectly suited for the Elections Administrator position, and we look forward to welcoming him to Harris County.” You can "CLICK HERE" to see how other local members (Channel 2) of the media are covering this story.
Here's the Statement that Was Made by Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis on the Hiring of Clifford Tatum
“Over the past three years, Harris County has transformed the way we manage elections and became a national model for election access. Through innovative changes such as countywide polling places, drive-thru voting, 24-hour voting, new voting machines, and record numbers of polling places, we’ve knocked down barriers to the ballot box, even with COVID and the State’s voter suppression efforts in the backdrop.
I’m confident that the best is yet to come and look forward to working with our new Elections Administrator Clifford Tatum to take Harris County’s elections to new heights even in these challenging times.
Voters should know that we are making every effort to protect and advance their sacred right to vote in November because the stakes have never been higher for our democracy.” You can "CLICK HERE" to see how other local members (Channel 2) of the media are covering this story.
Clifford Tatum is about to become the Harris County Elections Administrator. However, according to former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles Marler, “The soon-to-be new Harris County Elections Administrator, Clifford Tatum has been criticized by both Democrats and Conservatives.”
Clifford Tatum Has No Business Being Appointed to Serve as the Harris County Elections Administrator
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
This Clifford Tatum character has absolutely no business whatsoever being appointed as the new Harris County Elections Administrator. Has anyone vetted this guy? It only took former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles "Chuck" Marler about 15 minutes to determine that this guy isn't a good pick to run an election in the third-largest county in America.
And on top of the information provided to us for this report, all you have to do is start googling the name of this Clifford Tatum character and you will see that Harris County is headed toward a train wreck on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, with this guy at the helm of our election. "It was a disaster and completely unreal," said Rachelle Nigro, speaking of an election that was presided over by this Clifford Tatum character. At the time the story was written, Rachelle Nigro was serving as an advisory neighborhood commissioner of Election Day at Kennedy Recreation Center in Washington D.C., according to the Washington Examiner report. "One of my constituents compared it to voting in a Third World country," she stated in the report.
The report that appeared in the Washington Examiner, about Clifford Tatum also stated, "Other advocates told lawmakers that some precincts weren't accessible for the disabled, while poorly trained employees ran sites elsewhere in the District."
Rachelle Nigro, according to the report also stated that "in some cases, voters were provided with ballots that were not correct for their addresses, potentially allowing them to vote in races in other districts." Does that sound familiar? What do you think is about to happen in Harris County, Texas in November? Huh? What do you think is about to happen with this Clifford Tatum character running our election?
"Constituents continually came to me saying they were handed the wrong ballot," Rachelle Nigro also stated in the Washington Examiner report.
"It was the worst day ever for the Board of Elections," declared Rachelle Nigro, referring to the election that was run by Clifford Tatum, who was serving as the Washing D.C. Elections Chief.

There's nothing bipartisan about the Harris County Elections Commission that's comprised of Cindy Seigel (Republican), Ann Harris Bennett (Democrat), Lina Hidalgo (Democrat), Odus Evbagharu (Democrat), and Teneshia Hudspeth (Democrat), that supposedly unanimously selected Clifford Tatum to serve as the new Harris County Elections Administrator. “We have gone from totally inept Isabel Longoria as our Harris County Elections Administrator, to a more polished election deceiver, by the name of Clifford Tatum,” says former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles “Chuck” Marler. Now, according to the document above, which was provided to us by former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles "Chuck" Marler, there's a $108,209 Tax Lein filed against Clifford Tatum, the man hired to lead the third-largest county in America. You can "CLICK HERE" for more information.
The local media widely reported on Clifford Tatum being hired as the new Harris County Elections Administrator, yesterday. You can "CLICK HERE" to view the news report that was published on KHOU Channel 11 about the hiring of Clifford Tatum that was broadcast last night. That being said, it is unclear at this time, whether the Harris County Elections Commission is aware that as of 7/5/2022, there's a $108,209, Tax Lien against a Clifford Tatum, that has been extended to 5/15/2029, according to documents provided to us by former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles "Chuck" Marler.

Something Stinks Really Bad with the Selection of Clifford Tatum as the New Harris County Elections Administrator
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
Are you telling me that there weren’t any Texans who were qualified to serve as the Harris County Elections Administrator? Not one Texas? I’m telling you right now, the selection of this Clifford Tatum guy isn’t a good idea. And I don’t give a damn about the fact that he’s a Black male replacing an openly Lesbian white female. Isabel Longoria was a total trainwreck as Harris County’s first Elections Administrator, and Clifford Tatum is a terrible selection.
NOT BIPARTISAN AT ALL
Over the last day or so, all of the local media and press releases that are describing the selection process as one that was bipartisan, and that’s a bald-faced lie. The Harris County Elections Commission is comprised of five members. And Harris County Republican Party Chair Cindy Seigel is the only Republican on the Harris County Elections Commission. The Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo is a Democrat. The Harris County Clerk Teneshia Hudspeth is a Democrat. The Harris County Tax Assessor-Collector is a Democrat. And Odus Evbagharu, the ‘chairman of the Harris County Democratic Party is also a Democrat. So, how was this a bipartisan decision?
“We have gone from totally inept Isabel Longoria as our Harris County Elections Administrator, to a more polished election deceiver, by the name of Clifford Tatum,” says former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles “Chuck” Marler. “The soon-to-be new Harris County Elections Administrator, Clifford Tatum has been criticized by both Democrats and Conservatives,” explains Marler.
“He was mentioned in the report from "Black Box Voting Ballot Tampering in the 21st Century" for claiming that no records existed regarding a change in software used by Georgia voting systems in a 2003 FIOA request to the state,” says Marler, who worked for the FBI for more than 16 years. “Black Box claimed that this information was incorrect and Officials later admitted that modifications were made to Georgia Voting machines,” Marler went on to explain, referring to Clifford Tatum’s “alleged” false claim regarding Georgia’s voting systems.
Former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles “Chuck” Marler went on to explain, “In 2016 Congressman Elijah Cummings (now deceased), Congressman Robert Brady (no longer in congress), and Congressman James Clyburn outlined troubling findings with the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) Executive Director Brian Newby regarding statements made by the EAC referencing the requirement of proof of citizenship on federal voter registration forms.” According to Marler, “The findings were based on a briefing that Mr. Newby and EAC General Counsel Cliff Tatum (the soon-to-be new Harris County Elections Administrator) provided to congressional staff.”
Marler appears to be very concerned about the safety of our upcoming Tuesday, November 8, 2022, Midterm Elections with Clifford Tatum acting as the Harris County Elections Administrator, “I guess Lina Hidalgo was a little understaffed to find these problems, because it only took me 15 minutes, to find the information I’ve found already.”
Former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles Marler conducted a thorough investigation into 'alleged' dead people requesting absentee ballot applications in Harris County, Texas during the 2020 Presidential Election. His findings were sent to the Texas Secretary of State and who then forwarded Chuck's findings to Attorney General Ken Paxton. So, contrary to what you are hearing in the local and national media right now -- "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTING" is a serious problem that must be addressed. Charles Marler can be contacted at (281)687-5015 for more information.
Charles worked for the FBI for 16 years learning all facets of the Bureau’s complex operations from evidence collection, radio communications, aviation surveillance, and Forward-Looking Infra-Red (FLIR). Charles was an Investigative Specialist for 12 years as a member of the Special Surveillance Group and conducted, organized, and completed thousands of surveillances on Drug (as FLIR operator), Intelligence, and Terrorism targets. He participated in joint training operations with the DIA, DEA, JCTA, and CIA. Charles was an instructor and evaluator numerous times for the FBI’s surveillance training programs.
Charles managed a number of FLIR System Operators while coordinating one of the FBI’s prominent FLIR programs. He provided case guidance, became an expert in the operation and maintenance of FLIR equipment, and personally trained or provided training for his operators. Under Charles leadership and guidance the FLIR program conducted numerous successful operations against espionage subjects, suspected terrorism subjects, drug shipments, violent crimes, and kidnap searches.
Since 2008, Charles has been a co-owner of a private investigative firm based in Houston and has worked as a Private Investigator in Texas for the past four years specializing in covert physical surveillance operations. As a P.I. he has performed criminal investigations and conducted surveillance operations involving workman’s compensation, child custody, drug use, theft, and the elusive but frequent cheating spouse.
Ann Harris Bennett is a Democrat who currently serves as the Harris County Texas Assessor-Collector. However, she’s also a member of the five-member Harris County Elections Commission that chose to elect Clifford Tatum to serve as the new Harris County Elections Administrator. Ann Harris Bennett won’t be up for re-election until the 2024 Presidential Election cycle.
Teneshia Hudspeth is a Democrat who currently serves as the Harris County Clerk. However, she’s also a member of the five-member Harris County Elections Commission that chose to elect Clifford Tatum to serve as the new Harris County Elections Administrator. Teneshia Hudspeth will be on the ballot running for re-election on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, against Stan Stanart, a Republican.
Cindy Seigel is the chairman of the Harris County Republican Party. Seigel is the only Republican sitting on the five-member Harris County Elections Commission. Seigel has fielded the most diverse field of Republican nominees ever assembled in Harris County, Texas for the upcoming Tuesday, November 8, 2022, General Election.
Odus Evbagharu is the chairman of the Harris County Democratic Party. Odus Evbagharu is currently serving on the five-member Harris County Elections Commission along with four other Democrats and Cindy Seigel as the only Republican on the commission.
Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo, a Democrat is currently in the midst of a hotly contested re-election battle against Alexandra del Moral Mealer, the Republican nominee. But Hidalgo is also one of the members of the so-called five-member bipartisan Harris County Elections Commission. So, in my opinion, I find it a little suspect that Harris County Lina Hidalgo is praising the selection of Clifford Tatum as a “UNANIMOUS BIPARTISAN” decision. When you look at it, there’s nothing bi-partisan about a commission with “FOUR DEMOCRATS” and “ONE REPUBLICAN” voting on it. But anyway, as you will see below, under the “TWEET” that was sent out by Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo, she’s not fooling anyone.
As you can see above, many of the people who responded to Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo's tweet about the so-called bipartisan Harris County Elections Commission's selection of Clifford Tatum as the new Harris County Elections Administrator didn't go as well as she may have expected.

CLOSING THOUGHTS
"Over the course of the last few years, I've caught flack from both sides of the political aisle and have consistently been disrespected, shunned, and ignored by a lot of folks. I've also been threatened directly and indirectly since I began investigating local dirty politicians and their cronies who are committed to remaining in power by any means necessary. That being said, I am strongly encouraging you to do your own research and identify the candidates you like. Once you've developed your slate, I need for you to then, combine my slate with yours. Listen!!! The upcoming Tuesday, November 8, 2022, Midterm Election is unquestionably the most important election of our generation. And thus, propaganda, flat-out lies, and deceptive news reports are being peddled to the public like popcorn at the "RINGLING BROS AND BARNUM & BAILEY CIRCUS" on a daily basis. So, please join me in "Putting People Over Politics" as God's plan for America continues to unfold during this pivotal moment in the history of our great nation."

Alexandra del Moral Mealer Discusses What Freedom Means to Her With Aubrey R. Taylor, publisher of Houston Business Connections Newspaper©
Following in my family’s tradition, I decided to attend the United States Military Academy at West Point following the 9/11 Attacks. Upon graduation, I served in the Army bomb squad. Through my experience leading soldiers in combat, I demonstrated the skills necessary to lead during times of crisis and that has prepared me to lead the county through the crisis we currently face. The protection of our freedoms has been a theme throughout my life, one that my entire family has shared. They’re too important to sit idly by hoping that someone else will protect them and that’s especially true in Harris County, where our way of life has been under attack. I’m running for Harris County Judge to restore our way of life."
Trever Nehls Discusses What Freedom Means to Him With Aubrey R. Taylor, publisher of Houston Business Connections Newspaper©
"As every American should know and never forget: Freedom isn’t free. The ability in our day-to-day lives to live as we see fit in the world’s most prosperous country is a consequence of the sacrifices of countless men and women who have sacrificed their lives defending America.
The United States Constitution explicitly establishes our freedoms. The freedom to speech, freedom of religion, freedom of the press, and many others are integral to the uniquely American freedom we enjoy; however, the Constitution and the freedoms spelled out therein are little more than words and ideas without someone to defend them.
As a retired US Army Colonel, who served 33 years defending our Constitution, I know firsthand the sacrifices our men and women make on a daily basis to ensure our homeland is secure and Americans are able to enjoy their Constitutional freedoms.
For many people outside of America, freedom isn’t established by a constitution or defended by men and women in uniform. Instead, in places like Iraq and Afghanistan, the local populace has no freedom outside of what Al-Qaeda or the Taliban arbitrarily decides. The brutality of how the Taliban subjugate the Afghan people is truly horrific – that’s why you saw Afghan citizens desperately clinging to the landing gear of airplanes as they took off from the tarmac.
The Afghan people knew what it meant when America left: the little freedom they once enjoyed would be gone and they’d now be subjugated to the brutal, dictatorial rule of the Taliban. My Afghanistan interpreter, Agha, was able to get out before the Taliban assumed control – something we worked on for years after I returned to the states from my deployment there.
Agha is now living in Texas and is employed full-time with a national trucking and logistics company. He couldn’t be happier and more grateful to be living in a country where his freedom is established by the Constitution and defended by our men and women in uniform.
As Americans, we so often take for granted the blanket of freedom our Constitution and nation’s military provides. But we can always be reminded when we look to our nation’s veterans to share stories of the sacrifices they’ve endured and made to defend our freedom.
I hope the millions of Americans celebrating July 4th this weekend will reflect on and honor the sacrifices our military men and women have made so that we have something to celebrate on July 4th; and I hope they express pride to be living in the most free and prosperous country on Earth – a country which protects our endowed freedoms and liberties from those who would do it harm.
That’s what freedom means to me and millions of Americans who’ve served this country and honor its foundation, and I pray we never forget it."
