Democrat Senator Alex Padilla (CA) walked away as a reporter questioned him about the O’Keefe Media Group’s undercover cash for ballots video on Skid Row.
The O’Keefe Media Group on Tuesday released part one of its investigation into a California elections fraud cash for ballots scheme.
James O’Keefe and his team of journalists went undercover on Skid Row in Los Angeles, posing as homeless people.
‘Petitioners’ told the undercover journalists that they are paid between $7-$10 per signature. Some of them earn up to $1,000 per day.
“California NGOs Encourage Fake Addresses To Homeless People To Sign Petitions & Register Voters, A State & Federal Felony. Footage Shows 28 Instances Of Cash Changing Hands For Ballot Signatures & Voter Registration Forms,” they said.
“Many of the petitioners had no understanding of the petitions’ purpose they were advertising. Circulators also instructed individuals to use fake addresses. “Oh, you can just fake an address.”” OMG reported.
“Weingart Center, which received hundreds of millions in public funding, is on tape directing people to where the fraudulent petitioners are located, and directing homeless individuals to petitioners & coaching plausible deniability,” OMG said.
One petitioner impersonated a police officer and appeared to threaten James O’Keefe.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, LA DA Nathan Hochman, the California Secretary of State’s office and Governor Newsom have all confirmed they are aware of O’Keefe’s undercover sting.
A Lindell TV reporter caught up with California’s Democrat Senator Alex Padilla and asked him for comment on James O’Keefe’s video.
Padilla ignored the Lindell TV reporter and scurried up the steps.
Padilla’s handlers tried to block the reporter from asking simple questions about rampant voter fraud in California.
