|    Ontario politician wants head Alberta go    |

      Good luck with that. The guy is dirty - from start to now. The fraud used to       elect Kenney as UCP leader could well be used again in next Tuesday's election.              Just how many more of this type of politician are Albertans anxious to elect?       _____________________________________       CBC News ยท Posted: Apr 10, 2019                     Fraudulent emails used to cast votes in UCP leadership              Lists show members had emails attached to their names that were used to       intercept PINs needed to vote                     Documents obtained by CBC News show email addresses fraudulently attached to       Alberta's United Conservative Party (UCP) memberships were used to cast       ballots in the party's leadership race, which Jason Kenney won in 2017.              There were virtually no safeguards against the practice.              From a sample of 49 email addresses selected by CBC News, due to suspicious       domains, from a list of over 100,000 UCP members, 31 were used to cast votes       in the leadership vote.              Those email addresses were cross-referenced with a list of people registered       to vote in the leadership race and a list of those who actually voted.               Former UCP MLA Prab Gill has alleged in a letter to the RCMP that the Kenney       leadership campaign used fraudulent emails to intercept personal       identification numbers needed to cast a ballot in the leadership race. Gill       said those PINs, which should have        been sent to individual members, were then used by the Kenney campaign to vote       for Kenney.              A cease and desist letter sent to Gill from Kenney's lawyer Steven Dollansky       calls the allegations "plainly false and defamatory."              Many of the suspect domains trace back to a hosting service and are linked to       a network of ever-changing websites and domains, including Torytracker.com,       Bellwebmail.com, Mail.deanfrench.ca and many more.              It is not known who purchased those domains.              As previously reported, the suspect email addresses attached to members were       all purchased in the days leading up to the UCP leadership vote on Oct. 28,       2017. None of the emails are currently in service.              Cross-referencing two of the party lists obtained by CBC News shows the vast       majority of the fraudulent emails were attached to memberships between Oct. 3       and Oct. 24, 2017.              It is not known how widespread the practice is outside of the selected sample,       and there could be more fraudulent emails with valid domains like Gmail or       Hotmail.              Calling those on the list              To choose the leader of their political party in 2017, UCP members submitted       their vote online. In order to do so, each member was meant to have a verified       email address and a PIN number.              CBC News contacted a dozen people with suspect emails attached to their       memberships who confirmed they did not vote in the leadership race, and who       said their emails were different from the ones on the list.                     One family's story              Raj said someone from his community came to the house and asked the family to       sign up for the UCP.              "They know that most people in our community, like my parents, who have a       language barrier, are not going to log into a computer and vote," he said.              Raj said his family is "not big into politics. It's something we kind of stay       away from." But they signed up because they were asked in person.              "At that point, when they come to your house, it's just a sign of respect."              Raj said they put down their names, phone numbers and street address. Emails       were also put down for some members of his family. CBC News is withholding how       many family members there are in order to protect the family's identity.              On the list obtained by CBC News, it shows emails were added for some family       members without emails, and the other members had their emails changed.              "Clearly, I can say 100 per cent: We did not vote," Raj said.       - - -               Multiple votes from one location              The Kenney campaign has faced allegations that it used virtual private       networks (VPNs) to mask the addresses of computers in order to cast multiple       ballots from one location.              That allegation was connected to the use of PINs acquired through the use of       fraudulent emails.              more:       https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/ucp-leadership-voter-frau       -membership-lists-data-1.5091952              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
