The Cowboy Church in Skagit County celebrates its rural roots, gathering every Sunday in a horse arena on the family farm of Pastor Roy Swihart. Last year, 500 people filed into the Cowboy Church for a service of a different kind. They listened for hours as presenters offered their evidence that national elections – even those in Skagit County – are corrupted by incompetence and cheating. The keynote speaker, a former college professor from Cincinnati, presented his widely debunked theory that democrats are pumping “phantom” votes into voting machines. “I was a little bit concerned," Pastor Swihart said about bringing partisan politics into the church. "Because I’ve got friends on both sides,” Swihart said. “That’s the difference between a politician and a preacher. Politicians have to worry about what other people think. I don’t.” Since the presentation at Swihart’s church in Bow in September of last year, the KING 5 Investigators have tracked similar “election integrity” events at churches in Sedro Wooley, Marysville, Snohomish, Federal Way, Puyallup, and Lacey. The events typically include local presenters and politicians who claim to have evidence of voter registration irregularities or outright fraud.
