Haakon, Gregory and Tripp hand count ordinances were accepted by their county commissions and will be on the primary ballot for the voters to decide if they want to use machines or hand counting.
Do you know what else these three little counties have in common? Sara Frankenstein didn’t have her nose in their business.
As of today, four counties rejected the petitions brought by their citizens: Lawrence, McPherson, McCook, and Butte, where Sara Frankenstein was busy pushing the fear of getting sued by the ACLU to the commission, while simultaneously encouraging them to deny the petition and take their chances with getting sued by the citizens. McPherson County SA Austin Hoffman even taunted a citizen, challenging him to get a lawyer and bring a lawsuit.
This Supreme Court case Frankenstein and Hoffman are quoting is about zoning ordinances, not elections. This statute is all there is to know about the County Commission’s authority over determining how elections are run:
12-17B-3. Authority of governing body to adopt, experiment with or abandon system.
Any governing body having supervision of elections within any political subdivision may adopt, experiment with, or abandon any automatic tabulating or electronic ballot marking system approved for use by the State Board of Elections. Any governing body may use the system in all or some of the precincts within its jurisdiction or in combination with any other type of voting system approved for use by the State Board of Elections.
Fall River County Commissioners voted 5-0 to hand count the primary election back in February. A lot has happened since then, including interference by Sara Frankenstein in the form of “consulting” on election law. In case you aren’t aware, Frankenstein is a private attorney who claims to be the state election law expert, who defends the auditors, and was the driving force behind the unconstitutional HB1140!
Fall River is standing firm on their vote, and began to think the only reason they were still standing is because their State’s Attorney Lance Russel isn’t the kind of man that will be bullied by a beauty queen as charming as Delilah. Our volunteers in Fall River have confirmed Frankenstein has attempted to sway the county with her interpretations of the law.
Sara Frankenstein offered her services to the Fall River County Auditor, which has cost other counties $300/hour, despite the fact each county has a State’s Attorney on the payroll, in some cases with many a deputy SA, whose job it is to defend the county officials. How can any county rightfully justify contracting a private attorney when the taxpayers are already funding full-time county legal staff? AND, the county is paying for insurance and bonding, then the insurance or bonding company turns and hires outside counsel.
Frankenstein’s services were rejected by Russel, who rightfully refused to pay her with taxpayer money, so she has reportedly offered her services to Auditor Sue Gange for FREE. How many lawyers do you know who offer their services for FREE to a County Auditor who already has full-time legal counsel? What is Frankenstein up to? Who does she work for? Why is she so interested in “helping” the Fall River County Auditor when that State’s Attorney is more than capable? Who is paying Frankenstein and what is her real motive?
Fall River County citizens, GOP representatives and the State’s Attorney have attempted to have a meeting to discuss the upcoming election and plan for hand counting, which has been cancelled and rescheduled for next week due to needing more time to “clarify statutes and rules”. We hope this meeting goes off without any major issues but we will just put it out there that people are watching. The people know their rights, the people are informed of the law, and the people are not ignorant to the backroom shenanigans going on.
The denial of the petition in Lawrence County as appealed by a citizen pro-se, who just received a letter from Sara Frankenstein, who requested that the appeal be dismissed. That case is not dead; the people in Lawrence County don’t give up that easily.

Interesting that Shantel Swedlund Krebs, former Secretary of State, and Sara Frankenstein, self-proclaimed election law expert, both got their start as Miss South Dakota.
Sara Frankenstein has been a vocal proponent for South Dakota joining ERIC, the disastrous voter roll maintenance system that has been abandoned by many states after realizing their voter rolls were not accurate, or secure and ERIC did not live up to the contract. She even did a statewide promotion for ERIC during her election presentations to all the election officials, GOP groups, and legislators.
You may remember Sara Frankenstein’s appearance at the Pennington County special commission meeting to discuss elections. Sara’s job was to assure everyone that everything is fine, nothing to see here, we don’t have any fraud. Despite the massive evidence that ERIC does not maintain accurate voter rolls, is associated with shady individuals and leftist organizations, and many states have cancelled their contracts, Frankenstein still insists South Dakota needs to join ERIC. Why would she be claiming that? Click below to watch:
You can hear the audience’s reaction to Sara promoting ERIC, and this was a year and a half ago. Note Dr. Frank’s reactions to her commentary. You can read about the failures of ERIC HERE, HERE and HERE to start. Search our telegram channel for a multitude of posts on this subject.
After this meeting, Dr. Frank suggested Frankenstein might be getting paid by someone fighting against election integrity, and this was long before the coordinated attack on the Constitutional Rights of the People to Petition the Government AND the hand counting effort. Sara’s job was much easier before all these well educated and informed pesky conspiracy theorists showed up challenging the status quo.
Today, a volunteer found this post from Patrick Colbeck on social media.
For those of you who don’t already know, Claire Woodall-Vogg just got canned from her position of ballot harvester in-chief in Wisconsin. She was praised by the Elections Group Ryan Chew for “delivering the margin needed” in the middle of the night when to count was paused. The Elections Group founder is Jennifer Morrel. Remember her? You can refresh your memory in our article about her appearance at Monae Johnson’s summer study HERE.
In order for a leftist election organizer, who worked with corrupt election officials to “deliver the margin necessary” for Biden to win in the middle of the night, to end up in South Dakota at an event sponsored by the Secretary of State, Morrell would have to be connected to someone here. The selection for the summer study moderator wasn’t just a random choice.
We suspected someone in the Secretary of State’s Office may be connected to her. But after the events of the last few months, maybe we should start looking closer at the self proclaimed election law expert Sara Frankenstein, who is working like mad to stop the hand count petition effort, protects the status quo while discrediting citizens, and is STILL promoting ERIC.
The pieces are starting to come together.
Who are you Sara Frankenstein?
Sara Frankenstein and Little Hoffman along with any other states attorneys in on this are nothing but lawless clowns. I'd get my money back from the college/university I went to get my piece of paper that says I was a lawyer!
Any auditor that takes direction from the SOS or any states attorney to break laws is nothing but a puppet and any commissioner that denies citizens' rights are all COWARDS!
Here's my Rumble video on what happened in McPherson county this morning!

very interesting!
