Election activist Scott Presler is reportedly not getting the job that many conservatives hoped he would at the RNC: Leading a state-by-state legal “ballot harvesting” operation to get potential voters registered and equipped to mail-in vote for Donald Trump in the critical 2024 presidential election race.
NBC is reporting in a hostile and dishonest piece calling Presler a “conspiracy theorist” that he won’t be given the position, which would balance out the scales against the Democratic Party’s sweeping and well-organized ballot-harvesting and GOTV operations.
An RNC spokesperson told NBC that Presler will be a “valuable voice to the RNC” but will not become a direct employee as he “remains focused on his nonprofit.” Presler runs an organization called Early Vote Action that was founded to “organize & mobilize Republicans to vote early.”
Lara Trump, the daughter-in-law of former President Donald Trump and newly-installed RNC co-chair, endorsed Presler’s efforts, but did not deny NBC’s reporting.
“Scott Presler has shown what a single individual can accomplish when it comes to activating voters across the country,” she said. “I look forward to having his support as both of our organizations share the same goal of getting our friends and neighbors out to vote in this crucial election.”
🚨More never before seen footage of @ScottPresler
Here he’s training young @GOP volunteers on public property rights and how to behave when challenged.
Side note: the more clowns I get trying to discredit our work documenting Scott, the more I will release.

Lara Trump recently expressed interest in employing Presler for the ballot harvesting operation last week.
“I’m going to have a call very soon with Scott Presler who … has registered so many people in this country. I think he’s fantastic. I want him on our legal ballot harvesting division,” she told conservative influencer Benny Johnson.

Alex Floyd, the Democratic National Committee’s rapid response director, smeared Presler in a statement last week, which was echoed by NBC’s headline stating that he spread “conspiracy theories.”
“Scott Presler is an election-denying conspiracy theorist, which just makes him par for the course in terms of new major RNC staff hires,” Floyd said.
Registered a new voter!
If you’re in Pennsylvania — & need to register to vote — I’ll take time to personally meet w/ you.
Please welcome @pocketrocket_3 to the Republican Party.

NBC did not note the hundreds of times prominent Democratic voices have denied the results of elections they did not win.
Tonight, Joe Biden said, "This is a nation that respects free and fair elections. We honor the will of the people. We do not deny it."
