Tech and telecom firms helped New Hampshire AG trace call to “Life Corporation.”
An anti-voting robocall that used an artificially generated clone of President Biden’s voice has been traced to a Texas company called Life Corporation “and an individual named Walter Monk,” according to an announcement by New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella yesterday.
The AG office’s Election Law Unit issued a cease-and-desist order to Life Corporation for violating a New Hampshire law that prohibits deterring people from voting “based on fraudulent, deceptive, misleading, or spurious grounds or information,” the announcement said.
As previously reported, the fake Biden robocall was placed before the New Hampshire Presidential Primary Election on January 23. The AG’s office said it is investigating “whether Life Corporation worked with or at the direction of any other persons or entities.”
“What a bunch of malarkey,” the fake Biden voice said. “You know the value of voting Democratic when our votes count. It’s important that you save your vote for the November election. We’ll need your help in electing Democrats up and down the ticket. Voting this Tuesday only enables the Republicans in their quest to elect Donald Trump again. Your vote makes a difference in November, not this Tuesday.”
