Last night, the St. Louis County Council met. One controversial agenda item: expedited acceptance of cash from the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), a hard-left organization that helps steal elections.

Shortly after a $10 million grant to Philadelphia, nearly doubling the city’s election budget of $12 million, poll watchers were kicked out of election headquarters.

The CTCL is using the China Virus as an excuse to steal elections:

The Gateway Pundit reported Sunday that St. Louis County Council was considering its own grant from this sleazy outfit. But that proposal was vetoed by County Councilman and former St. Louis County Police Chief Tim Fitch.

State Rep. Dottie Bailey (R-110) alerted Fitch and others of the CLCT’s vote-stealing ways.

“I saw the story on Jim Hoft’s blog [The Gateway Pundit] and thought, ‘this has to stop.’ So, I called Tim [Fitch]. Of course, he was all over it and vetoed it.”

But St. Louis County is not out of the woods just yet.

According to Bailey, Tuesday’s vote concerned only *expedited* approval of the grant from CTCL.
The proposal will re-appear next week on a non-expedited agenda.

“People need to call their council member and tell them, ‘hell no,’” Bailey said.

But *pay attention to these rules, via St. Louis County’s website:

* Send your public comments and any relevant attachments to [[email protected]].

* When submitting your email, **a first and last name must be provided**. If a first and last name is not provided, the emailed comments will not be read.
