Her affidavits are full of already debunked conspiracies, allegations that have already been dismissed by courts across the country, and absolutely no substance.
Here's one sentence from her Michigan affidavit:
She managed to misspell 'district' three different times in three different ways - Distrct, Districct, and Distrcoict.
Her footnotes sourcing her claims link to Tweets, YouTube videos, and a DuckDuckGo search result (See https://duckduckgo.com/?q=colorado+signature+rejection+rate&t=osx&ia=web last visited November 25,2020).
Both filings are hilariously bad.

(9,170 posts)She actually filed this garbage in federal court. I think the only way Rule 11 sanctions arent in her future is if the judges become convinced shes nuts, and really does have a good faith belief this nonsense is real.

(9,170 posts)filing, but that is a major ethical violation. You dont file on behalf of a party who is not your client. She should have a written agreement with each of the plaintiffs setting out the scope of the representation, and how she is to be compensated ( its probably pro bono).
She may escape sanctions for this massive fuck up, but her malpractice carrier is likely to take notice.
