Worked on Harris’ campaign last year, now scanning ballots in Georgia
A Dominion technician previously worked on Democrat vice-presidential nominee Kamala Harris’s campaign last year and has a history of anti-Trump social media posts, it has been revealed.
Aric Thompson is a representative of Dominion Voting Systems who tasked with scanning ballots in Floyd County, Georgia during the 2020 presidential election vote count.
However, Thompson previously worked on Sen. Harris’s presidential campaign in 2019 as an official photographer, according to his LinkedIn profile.
The ballot counter even has a portfolio online showcasing photographs he took of the then-Democratic presidential candidate.
In social media posts, Thomspon describes President Donald Trump as a “puppet” for “white supremacists.”
In his more recent posts, he also bemoans the president’s requests for recounts, claiming it’s a “never ending election.”
Thompson has been scanning ballots in Floyd County, Georgia for Dominion, according to The Gateway Pundit.
Over 3,000 votes, the majority of which were for President Trump, went initially uncounted in the county.
Additionally, there are reports that no observers were present for some of the scanning.
