So recently, the California GOP put up fake ballot boxes to try to tamper with the ballots, and they recently admitted they did it.

Now they won't comply with removing it

California GOP won't comply with cease-and-desist order to remove unofficial ballot drop boxes

"We're going to continue with the program because it complies with the law," California GOP general counsel Tom Hiltachk said.

The GOP calls the Democrats the frauds, but they are the real frauds.

Trump said, they will not understand about ballot box threat, unless we Republicans USE it to gain. THAT will cause them to rethink using ballot boxes. They have ADMITTED, that they will cheat, as a tool. JUst like Trump said to all his supporters, vote twice.

That’s not a citation. Can you be specific on what law the California GOP are violating?

California Republican Party plans to defy cease-and-desist order, won't remove unofficial ballot boxes

The unofficial ballot boxes comply with California's "ballot harvesting" law, according to Thomas Hiltachk, the California GOP's general counsel.
www.usatoday.com

The fact that they labeled unofficial ballot boxes as "official" itself is an act of tampering with the ballot.

They are setting up collection boxes in order to take advantage of California’s ballot harvesting law. Doesn’t really matter what is on the box as long as it complies with the law.

I’m not a member of the California GOP. What judge gave the cease and desist order and what did it say?

The dictionary definition of "tamper" is

"to interfere with (something) in order to cause damage or make unauthorized alterations"

the GOP is interfering with the ballots (by putting the ballots into their own ballot boxes) and making unauthorized (those boxes aren't official) alterations.

Yes, the GOP is tampering with the ballots
 
The California GOP has always been corrupt, corporate scumbags.

Think Richard Nixon (and Reagan). The single worst thing in our state's history, Prop 13's gutting state revenues (there's an initiative to repeal the business side currently). Recalling a Democratic governor on BS to get corrupt Schwarzeneggar in to help Enron. It's a long list, now this.

"Ballot harvesting program will continue," California Republican Party spokesperson Hector Barajas said in a statement to CNN.
While images of the ballot boxes have shown the boxes labeled as "official," the state GOP said it did not authorize the use of that term and had it removed.
"We have a ton of requirements on official drop boxes," he continued. "That's where we should be driving voters to."

California Republican Party says it will not comply with state's cease and desist order on ballot drop boxes

So they removed “official” from the boxes, so all good now?

Meh, partly. It's the intention that counts. Good to know you are perfectly OK with a party that was intentionally trying to mislead the public and discredit American elections. Because they like law and order so much, right? :ROFLMAO:

They’re setting up boxes to collect ballots and as long as they submit them to the election authorities they are in compliance with the ballot harvesting law. Do you not support the ballot harvesting law?

It sounds like they are in compliance with the ballot harvesting law. Do you not support the ballot harvesting law?

Sure, if it's labelled right. Do you support false advertisement by political parties?

I am surprised you are not outraged by such bald faced lying. But then again, I bet you were waiting with bated breath for 6 years straight to see what Trump's top people were finding on Obama's secret birth certificate, am I right? :ROFLMAO:

No, they are far from complying with the chain of custody requirements. They can screw with the ballots to their hearts content. And they intend to.
