DATED SPINE
Dates on the record.
Pulled from the Omar associations / Minnesota Fraud claim spine. Full illustrated deep guide may expand this list.
- Sep 27–28, 2020 — Project Veritas ballot videos: PV publishes cash-for-ballots series naming Omar’s machine.
- Sep–Oct 2020 — Fact-checks: no Omar campaign link shown: USA Today rates claim False; Star Tribune reports campaign denial on Liban Mohamed.
- May–Nov 2022 — Muse Mohamed convicted (Fateh race): Perjury about absentee ballots — Omar Fateh volunteer/BIL, not Ilhan Omar’s campaign.
PRIMARY & NEAR-PRIMARY SOURCES
Read these first.
- MPR — Jury convicts DFL campaign volunteer of lying in ballot fraud investigation (May 10, 2022)
Muse Mohamed / Omar Fateh campaign context.
- Sahan Journal — Muse Mohamed sentenced for perjury over absentee ballots
Adjacent Minneapolis ballot conviction: Muse Mohamed / Omar Fateh race — not Ilhan Omar’s campaign. Often conflated; keep on Fateh path. Not a substitute primary for Veritas’s Omar claim.
- Minnesota Reformer — Fateh campaign volunteer sentenced for lying about delivering ballots (Nov 7, 2022)
Sentencing; Fateh denied knowledge.
- Project Veritas — Ilhan Omar Connected Cash-For-Ballots Voter Fraud Scheme Exposed in Minnesota (Sep 27, 2020)
PRIMARY release (Sep 27, 2020): Liban Mohamed Snapchats, Omar Jamal insider claims, cash-for-ballots allegations naming Omar’s political machine. Establishes what Veritas published and the facts *its* path treats as accepted (on-tape statements, Snapchat visuals, Jamal’s allegations). Does not by itself adjudicate the rival mainstream path.
- USA Today fact check: No proof linking Omar to Project Veritas ballot-harvesting claims (Oct 16, 2020)
MAINSTREAM path analysis (Oct 16, 2020): rates Omar-link claim False; argues unnamed sources, translation/editing limits, Jamal credibility problems, and no shown campaign employment link. Secondary to Veritas for *what was claimed*; first-class for *what the mainstream path concludes*.
- Star Tribune — Trump seizes on conservative group’s claim of fraud in Minneapolis election (Sep 2020)
Local contemporaneous report: Trump amplification; Omar campaign denial that Liban Mohamed worked for her. Accepted on mainstream path as campaign position; Veritas path treats denials as non-refutation of on-tape witnesses.
- Sahan Journal — Omar Jamal, key source of Project Veritas election fraud video, backtracks (Oct 1, 2020)
MAINSTREAM-path reporting (as summarized nationally): Omar Jamal walked back parts of cash-for-ballots meeting claims in a Somali-language interview. Contested by Veritas (sought retraction). Moving-target node.
VIDEO / YOUTUBE (LABELED)
On the spine as sources.
- Project Veritas YouTube — Omar Connected Harvester SEEN Exchanging $200… (Sep 28, 2020)
PRIMARY Sep 28 follow-up: O’Keefe voiceover states sources allege Omar is architect of pay-per-vote scheme.
