Massive voter FRAUD scheme in PA linked to major Arizona ballot harvesting firm ‘FieldCorps’

An alleged voter fraud scheme spanning four Pennsylvania counties—Lancaster, Cambria, York, and Monroe—has been linked to the Arizona-based voter registration firm FieldCorps, headed by Mesa Vice Mayor Francisco Heredia.

The scheme first drew attention when Monroe County District Attorney Mike Mancuso disclosed that the Monroe County Board of Elections had flagged “approximately 30 irregular forms.”

In Lancaster County, a preliminary investigation revealed that roughly 60% of reviewed voter registration forms submitted close to the deadline appeared to be fraudulent.

These questionable registration forms have been “segregated” and forwarded for further investigation. DA Mancuso noted one case where the registration listed the name of a deceased individual.

FieldCorps, which conducts voter registration drives, insists that its workers are trained to complete forms accurately.

Heredia, a vocal supporter of Kamala Harris, is not affiliated with any political party but was running FieldCorps operations in Lancaster since June.

Lancaster County DA Heather Adams described the situation further, sharing that her office was alerted by the chief clerk of elections on Tuesday about “potentially fraudulent voter registration applications” submitted just before the state’s registration deadline.

Many applications featured uniform handwriting, consistent submission dates, and unknown signatures. For several applications, the signatures did not match those on file for previously registered voters.

Lancaster County detectives are investigating and have already uncovered multiple cases of fraudulent details, including false addresses, incorrect personal information, and mismatched Social Security numbers.

Investigators have contacted individuals listed on these registration forms and discovered that many of the named applicants had not submitted the forms, nor did their signatures match those on the documents.

According to Adams, the forms are believed to be part of a large-scale voter registration canvassing effort that began in June and intensified by August.

The initiative, she explained, was a paid canvassing operation, employing workers to collect voter registrations.

Additionally, Adams said that FieldCorps’ canvassing efforts took place in various public areas—shopping centers, grocery store parking lots, parks, and sidewalks.

While some forms were legitimate, about 60% of the 2,500 reviewed in Lancaster County were found to be fraudulent.

Similar issues have been flagged in two other Pennsylvania counties, and they are currently under investigation.

Lancaster County officials indicated that multiple criminal codes may have been violated.

FieldCorps, which is now offline, reportedly submitted these forms under the sponsorship of the national nonprofit Everybody Votes, according to a statement from York County Chief Greg Monskie.

Everybody Votes commented that their partners make diligent efforts to ensure compliance with all registration rules and regulations.

Meanwhile, Heredia stated that FieldCorps has not yet been formally contacted about the investigation.

This is not the first controversy involving FieldCorps. During voter registration drives in Navajo and Mohave Counties in Arizona, some of their forms were flagged for potential issues.

Heredia has also confirmed that FieldCorps was contracted by Everybody Votes for canvassing in Pennsylvania, and while his company reviews forms for accuracy, Pennsylvania state law mandates that all forms must be submitted regardless of errors.

FieldCorps has reportedly received substantial campaign funds, including nearly $100,000 from Living United for Change in Arizona, along with additional contributions from campaigns for Greg Stanton, Ginger Sykes Torres, Tom O’Halleran, and the Working Families Party.

Furthermore, reporter Salena Zito noted that FieldCorps’ clientele includes the Biden-Harris campaign and Arizona Democrats, as well as Senator Mark Kelly.

Job listings for FieldCorps advertised $20/hour positions for “political canvassers,” with no prior experience required.
