Vandalism by COI editor?
On June 6th, 2019, an IP editor from downtown Topeka, where the state capitol and the Kansas Republican party headquarters are located, made extensive revisions to this article, removing well-sourced facts in what was almost certainly a blatant effort to present a POV positive impression of the article's subject. At one point, he or she added a source to the brief article and from it, Schmidt was given credit for a statement made by another Objections Board Member. The actual text from the source was:"Kobach said the delay shouldn't be interpreted as the board giving credence to claims that Obama isn't eligible, but as a signal it wants to build a more complete record. He noted that the board doesn't have any document certifying the authenticity of the copy of Obama's birth certificate that is available online. 'We have to take our responsibilities seriously,' he said. 'Taking it seriously means that we make a decision with all of the evidence that can be obtained before we decide it.'" The IP editor put the quote instead in Schmidt's mouth, perfuming the article's subject's situation. The edits began at 12:52 p.m. and lasted until 1:51 p.m. CDT. Much of the added material was derived from Schmidt's own state website, rather than from an RSS. One could reasonably presume these questionable edits were made by a COI editor, perhaps working on state time. The state board, by giving some deference to the claims, ignored the fact they had been endlessly unsuccessfully litigated countrywide by California crackpot dentist-attorney Orly Taitz in 2008 and earlier in 2012.
