Libs, Progs, and Earth Muffins, you wanted proof voter ID would prevent voter fraud.



May I present exhibit A.

Concentrating recounts in urban centers will show irregularities linked to Dems.

Stein suckered recount donors and it looks good on them.

This is backfiring on the Progs in ways they never imagined, isn't it?

They NEVER think two steps ahead. NEVER. It is all about emotion and getting back at the enemy.

In the shape the Democrats have left Detroit, you would think their voters would want a change and fight the status quo. But no....

dreaux, what I don't understand is why there is not a checks and balances at each precinct of poll watchers who monitor the process. In Texas, the poll watchers can't interfere or do anything that disrupts the voting process, but they can't be prevented from watching, and subsequently challenging miscounts.

If there's a Republican poll watcher there to witness the count of ballots vs. the tabulated votes, then once those votes for the precinct are submitted to the SoS of Michigan, the poll watcher can then file an affidavit challenging the tabulation. That can be done easily in Texas and there's a procedure in place. If Michigan doesn't have this setup already (which would be surprising) then they should.

If Republicans aren't staffing every single precinct in future elections they obviously didn't learn the lesson from this election.

They clearly miss things....or their protests fall on deaf ears. There were 256 ballots counted that were not in the box in one precinct alone.

Clearly progressive voters that are melting now and eating up this Russian conspiracy theory would never imagine that there would be irregularities that aided Clinton in Michigan.

States should automatically recount a random 5% of their polling stations on a regular basis. Would answer the questions.

Look at Wisconsin. Thousands of votes are double counted or missed because of human error. Voter ID isn't the problem. Mandatory recounts and audits would solve the voter fraud issue anyway.

I doubt there was any voter fraud. You have too much confidence in the government bureaucracy. I'm not saying there is no voter fraud (by both parties too), but not in this case.

In one Detroit Precinct, a recount team was given a box of ballots with an unbroken seal where everything appeared proper and in place. The tag on the box said there were 306 ballots. The book said 306, and the ticket said 306, so that means there should be 306 paper ballots on the box. When they pulled out the ballots, there were exactly FIFTY paper ballots in a locked sealed box that again was supposed to have 306. The official canvasser approved count for this precinct was 306. For FIFTY ballots.


Just to ensure I'm understanding this correctly...

So the accusation is that the poll workers reported 306 ballots so they could say the count was, say, 296 to 10 Hillary over Trump, when in reality it was 40 to 10 Hillary over Trump?

This is why poll watchers are needed

So these lying corrupt democrats don't run ballots through the machines 5 times each.

That in conjunction with voter ID laws would go a long way to help prevent election rigging. I like the proposed law in Michigan that you have to bring a photo ID to the registrar's office if you don't have one in person with in 10 days.

bullshite. They usually do, which is why they kicked the shite out of the GOP for so long (and in 2008 and 2012), and dominate education and popular culture. That said, they have been myopic since Trump's win.

It wasn't, it was a net 165(ish) vote gain for PEOTUS Trump.

This most certainly is not "democrats trying to rig the election." If the books show 300 voters in heavily democratic polling places, but only 30 ballots are in the box, that means that someone threw away 270 ballots in that precinct. If it is a heavily democratic precinct, that means that democratic votes were not counted.

There were some precincts in Philly where Romney literally got absolutely no votes at all.
Let's also not forget some precincts that got over 100% turnout.

CNN has obtained a small, obscure photo of one of the Russians accused of rigging the election.
