Can’t tell60% confidence8 sourcesAug 11, 2026ERIC has been found to have 6,600 illegal voters on their rolls.Said by BThe claim departs from the passage: the speaker framed 6,600 illegal voters as a hypothetical ('when they are found to') and never said ERIC was found to have them. The sources tie the 6,600 figure to a New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission software glitch, not to ERIC, and report that about 400 of those registrants voted, so the claim's attribution to ERIC and its 'illegal voters' wording do not match the record.Can’t tell30% confidence4 sourcesAug 11, 2026The Democracy Communication Collaborative has a set of resources intended for NGOs and other authorities to move people along a change curve to pro-democracy action.Said by BThe sources do not establish that the Democracy Communication Collaborative (DCC) published a resource set for NGOs to move people along a change curve to pro-democracy action as of 2026-08-11. The passage never names DCC; the claim adds that organization, so it departs from the passage. The only DCC-related source describes a funder-facing guide, which is a different audience.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.Can’t tell30% confidence4 sourcesAug 11, 2026Mark Elias has proposed seven new bills for state legislatures to pass.Said by BNone of the provided sources mention Mark Elias proposing seven bills for state legislatures, so the claim cannot be checked. The sources describe Elias as an election lawyer who litigates against state voting laws, not as someone drafting legislation; the extraction faithfully reflects the post's wording.Reported in the post, not stated as its own.Can’t tell10% confidence9 sourcesAug 11, 2026Sonia Hawkes Lewis was convicted of four felonies and sentenced to probation and a fine.Said by BNone of the provided sources mention Sonia Hawkes Lewis, so the claim about her four felony convictions, probation, and fine cannot be checked. The extracted claim matches the passage, which says she was convicted of four felonies and got probation and a fine, but the passage itself is the claimant's words and not evidence.Can’t tell30% confidence6 sourcesAug 11, 2026The Election Official Legal Defense Network refused to defend Tina Peters.Said by BNone of the provided sources reports that the Election Official Legal Defense Network declined to defend Tina Peters. The only EOLDN source (a 2023 Governing article) describes its mission without mentioning Peters, and the Peters-related sources do not mention EOLDN, so the claim can be neither confirmed nor refuted. The extraction is faithful to the passage, which says 'They would not defend' Peters, and the claim is the post's own.Can’t tell35% confidence2 sourcesAug 11, 2026The speaker was sued after telling members of the Colorado legislature that they are not above the law.Said by BThe sources show that Ashe Epp (the post's author, Ashe in America) was named as a defendant in a federal lawsuit filed by the NAACP, League of Women Voters and Mi Familia Vota in March 2022, after the 2021 canvassing project. However, the only source for that is a self-published GiveSendGo fundraiser page, and no source covers the claimed statement to legislators that they are 'not above the law' or links that remark to the suit, so the central assertion cannot be graded.Can’t tell15% confidence4 sourcesAug 11, 2026The appellate court ruled that the dismissal of the USGIP free association claim in January 2023 was an error.Said by BNone of the provided sources addresses the USIP (U.S. Institute of Peace) free association claim or any appellate ruling in that case, so the claim can be neither confirmed nor refuted. The extraction faithfully reflects the post, which is the claimant's own unsourced account and cannot corroborate itself.Can’t tell30% confidence3 sourcesAug 11, 2026USGIP cannot be represented pro se in the upcoming trial.Said by BNone of the sources mention USCIP, USGIP, the NAACP case, or the planned trial, so the specific claim cannot be graded. The general rule that corporations and LLCs must be represented by an attorney in federal court (sources 7 and 9) is consistent with the post's point, but it does not establish that this organization or this trial is covered. The extracted claim also writes the entity as 'USGIP' where the passage says 'USCIP', so it departs slightly from the post; as of 2026-08-11 the sources do not settle it either way.Can’t tell40% confidence10 sourcesAug 11, 2026The Great American Restoration Tour will hold its 13th stop in Las Vegas, Nevada, from September 17, 2026, to September 19, 2026.Said by BThe post itself (Badlands Media, 2026-08-11) announces the 13th Great American Restoration Tour stop in Las Vegas for Thursday September 17 to Saturday September 19, 2026, and the claim matches the passage faithfully. However, the only source directly on the event is the Badlands Media virtual-pass ticket page, which is a claimant-affiliated, low-credibility listing and confirms the dates and the 'GART 13 Las Vegas' name but not that the event is the 13th stop per se; no independent outlet covers the tour stop, so the claim cannot be independently corroborated or refuted.
