Cumberland County officials received an email this week from the Trump campaign requesting highly specific details about the countys ballot security.

The email, obtained by The Sentinel, went so far as to ask for the address and room numbers of ballot storage locations and asking that the information be sent to the Gmail account of a Florida-based Trump operative.

County officials said they have not responded to the request and do not intend to, according to the county commissioners.

The Trump campaign described the request as standard election transparency details, but local officials find the implication that the Presidents campaign staff is harvesting election security plans through what appears to be a personal web-based email account to be extremely concerning.

Its almost kind of chilling the sort of data they wanted us to provide, Cumberland County Commissioner Gary Eichelberger said. This is basically the whole security plan. Weve never received a request of this detail and I find it troubling that one of the interested parties [in the election outcome] feels they have a right to information that obviously could jeopardize the security of the ballots.

The message was sent Tuesday, according to emails obtained by The Sentinel, from Leslie OShaughnessy, who said she was writing on behalf of Donald J. Trump for President.

The email contained an attached, bullet-pointed list of the details requested, which OShaughnessy described as being pursuant to your offices compliance with existing statutes and law.

Please respond to these questions no later than 5:00 pm EST, tomorrow, Wednesday, October 28, 2020, the email stated, asking for the response to be sent to a Gmail account bearing OShaughnessys name, and also including a phone number.

That number is tied to a virtual learning center in Florida, as well as a personal Facebook page for OShaughnessy where she identifies herself in a publicly-visible post as having served as an appointee in the Trump Administration in Washington DC.

A person who identified themselves as Leslie answered the phone number but declined to discuss their role in the email with The Sentinel.

Trump campaigns communications office confirmed to The Sentinel that OShaughnessy is a volunteer with the campaign, and offered an explanatory statement from Deputy National Press Secretary Thea McDonald.

Honestly, with how many of them want to become martyrs at this point? The death penalty isn't enough to dissuade them. Maybe if you also include their entire immediate family (exception for anyone who they disowned/ disowned them)?

Has there been a substantive statement from his campaign? Something like "We want to make sure the people working the polls don't have a bias"?

That doesn't fucking matter.

The amount of harm and damage you could do with access to the ballots is insane. Only approved election officials who fully understand the consequences of their actions should be in the same room as the ballots.

And anyone who would purposefully violate that trust deserves to be charged with treason against the US

Well obviously there is no justification for this. But I also am morbidly curious about how they're trying to justify it.

Considering they're also asking for the identifies of the people who will be handling them that may be the case. They're either going to attempt to compromise them, or the ones they can't they'll run a smear campaign against and call them radical liberals and accuse then of election fraud.

I think the intentions are more nefarious than a simple smear campaign

You don't ask for the names and details of the people transporting ballots if your only intentions are to run a smear campaign.

Their intentions are treasonous

I completely agree that the reasons doesn't matter, but like Action said it's a "morbid curiosity" on my part :P
