Mike Lindell Wi-Fi Monitoring Devices Banned From Northern Kentucky Polls

Mike Lindell, the election fraud conspiracy theorist and ardent Trump supporter, is selling Wi-Fi monitoring devices after claiming that the signals at polling stations are creating voter tampering. Election officials in Northern Kentucky have said that Lindell’s devices are illegal, likely a felony, and voted that poll workers will be instructed to not allow the devices. Lindell, the CEO of MyPillow, is banned from X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, for spouting election fraud conspiracies. He reportedly collected donations from the Election Crime Bureau Summit back in August for the devices, which he said would be sold for less than $500. Kenton County Clerk Gabrielle Summe said that Lindell’s devices are particularly dangerous because they are small enough to sneak into the polls and could illegally identify voters. “These are the kinds of things that keep me up at night,” Summe said.

Election fraud conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell is selling Wi-Fi monitoring devices that he says make elections more secure.

But Northern Kentucky elections officials warned Friday that using the devices at polls is illegal – and likely a felony.

Kenton County Clerk Gabrielle Summe said the devices may be able to unlawfully identify voters and could be small enough for people to sneak into polling locations.

"These are the kinds of things that keep me up at night," she said at a board of elections meeting Friday morning.

Lindell, the founder and CEO of My Pillow, said his wireless monitoring devices, or WMDs, can detect any Wi-Fi signal at polling locations, record IP addresses and show what a network is named.

1. Old Mikey is bound determined to graduate from being a fool to becoming a felon.

2. Sounds like a scam that Lindell is promoting. So what if a WIFI network is ID'ed. In many areas of this

Country, one would detect literally dozens of WIFI signals. As to what each WIFI signal does, I suspect that there would have to be far more intelligence in the cheap ass devices that Lindell is selling or pushing. And so what if his device detects a WIFI signal (or many), most of them are more than likely, perfectly legal, home alarm systems, home computer systems, and the list could go on forever. Tons of devices use WIFI.

A scam IMHO. And by the way, your regular cell phone can detect this WIFI signals too. He is just ripping people off.
