Cameron Harris

Cameron Harris was the Campaign Manager for State Delegate David E. Vogt III (R) from Frederick County. He was working for Mr. Vogy, when it was discovered Harris was the owner of www.ChristianTimesNewspaper.com, now defunct, which ran Fake news stories during the 2016 election campaign.

Snopes.com debunked several of his site's stories, including the claim that “tens of thousands of pre-marked ballots casting votes for Hillary Clinton were found in a warehouse in Ohio". Harris admitted to Snopes that the motivation was financial rather than political.[1]

He also ran several other fake news sites.[2][3][4]

According to A Miner Detail, Harris works for Maryland Delegate Mike Mckay in his Annapolis office.
