Mike Lindell backs rightwing California county as it ditches voting machines

Shasta county officials have ended their contract with Dominion Voting Systems, leaving them with no replacement

Proponents of the lie that the presidency was stolen from Donald Trump are eying an often overlooked region of California as they continue to promote falsehoods around the 2020 election: Shasta county, population 182,000.

Shasta county, a conservative stronghold in the state's far north, recently ended its contract with Dominion Voting Systems, the voting machine company that has been the subject of a conspiracy theory that it played a role in swinging the election for Biden. The move has left the semi-rural county without a voting system and no replacement ready to implement when its Dominion contract ends next week.
