Marc E. Elias is a partner at the law firm Perkins Coie and head of its Political Law practice. Elias served as General Counsel for Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and John Kerry’s 2004 campaign.

Elias is on the board of Democrat Super PAC Priorities USA Action. Elias led a George Soros funded effort against state voter identification laws.[1]

2008 election tampering

Elias represented Al Franken in Minnesota. The recount may have been decided by convicted felons who voted illegally. A study conducted by Minnesota Majority found that at least 341 convicted felons in largely Democratic Minneapolis-St. Paul voted illegally in the 2008 Senate race. The felons were registered by ACORN.

The final recount determined six months after the election showed Franken beat Coleman by 312 votes -- fewer votes than the number of felons whose illegal ballots were counted which matched publicly available conviction lists with voting records.

The group took the voting lists and matched them with conviction lists, then went to the voting roster lists, where voters sign in before voting, and matched them.[2]

Ann Coulter said,
"He stole the 2008 election in Minnesota, going from a thousand votes down the day after the election to 300 votes up a few months later, after vast numbers of Franken votes kept being discovered in heavily Democratic districts. As economist John Lott pointed out at the time, the magically appearing votes for Franken were a statistical impossibility."[3]

2016 election tampering

Elias paid FusionGPS for the Steele dossier on behalf of the Hillary for America campaign and the Democratic National Committee.[4] The Steele dossier was used by the Obama FBI to hoax the FISA court into granting surveillance warrants to spy on the 2016 Trump campaign, Trump transition, and Trump administration.[5]

Elias lied to New York Times reporters regarding the employment of FusionGPS.[6]

2018 election tampering

On November 8, two days after the 2018 midterm election, Elias traveled to Broward County, Florida to represent Democrats.[7] Lawyers for Democrats want to count the votes on non-U.S. citizens.[8]
