Cam Higby
Role at the time: Conservative social media commentator and one of the two men charged, in a post on X
Response to this claim
James O'Keefe and Cam Higby misrepresented their identities by giving election judges names of registered voters in the precinct without those voters' knowledge or permission.
“In Minnesota it seems sex offenders walk free and journalists get charged and bombarded by the state.”
Why we used this label
The reference point is O'Keefe and Higby's conduct at Minneapolis polling places during the August 11 primary, where prosecutors say they gave election judges registered voters' names while asking about vouching. Higby rejects the charges by describing the two men as journalists targeted by the state.
