MICHIGAN – One-third of precincts in Wayne County could be disqualified from an unprecedented statewide recount of presidential election results because of problems with ballots.
Michigan’s largest county voted overwhelmingly for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, but officials couldn’t reconcile vote totals for 610 of 1,680 precincts during a countywide canvass of vote results late last month.
Most of those are in heavily Democratic Detroit, where the number of ballots in precinct poll books did not match those of voting machine printout reports in 59 percent of precincts, 392 of 662.
According to state law, precincts whose poll books don’t match with ballots can’t be recounted. If that happens, original election results stand.

When Trump is safely in office he really ought to direct the DOJ along with the Election Department (or whatever it’s called) investigate the 2016 election from top to bottom. If there’s been fraud it needs to be dragged into the light and anybody caught at it, at any level, prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I’ll bet Stein and Clinton would just love that.
The investigation could be called the “Stein and Clinton Honesty in Voting Program” in honor of the concern they’ve shown for the American voter.
See whut happens when ya round up the worlds largest collection of worthless, uninformed, unemployed, barely aware, self-absorbed, celebrity-obsessed, dope-smoking, free-stuff-grabbing, no morals, media-influenced, Food-Stamp wielding, Kool-Aid drinking, Escalade driving, government-dependent, busted-ass, entitlement rich, short attention span, Obamaphone-carrying parasites, who won’t buy a belt and can’t process a sound bite over 10 seconds in length that doesn’t rhyme or have a steady beat!
all votes of every county in every state should be re-counted as a matter of course after every election just to insure the voice of the people is heard.
anything less contributes to voter fraud.
if you discount the illegal and fraudulent votes didn’t trump win the popular along with the electoral vote?
that’s why it’s not done as a matter of course.
the fraud would be exposed.
😂
Rigged Election? What does that even mean? Our elections aren’t rigged! -Obama

Investigate, identify, indict, convict. It’s far past time to root out the corruption in US elections.
It seems inappropriate to reward Ds for fraud.
If a recount effort uses the original vote counts from areas marred by D fraud, they are being rewarded. (I rely on what I have read on the net wrt to the law, so . . .)
The MI (or any stste) law needs to be: Any sign of significant fraud in a precinct will lead to all of its votes being tossed.
Then we wouldn’t have many votes from D hell-holes.
Trump needs to pass Federal legislation that requires absolute proof of US Citizenship to vote. He also needs to end birthright citizenship to people whose parents are in our country ILLEGALLY at the time of their birth. In other words if they are legal immigrant or legal guest workers then birth right citizenship should be granted, but if they snuck over the border or broke our laws to plop out a baby it should be denied.
The stupidity of liberal, progressive, mo-rons is staggering. Haven’t they ever heard of the axiom “be careful of what you wish for”?
@Makeamericasaneagain: Since the Dems have now conceded that there is indeed voter fraud, Trump and the Republicans should move immediately after Jan 20 to pass “Comprehensive Election Reform” legislation. Clean up everything! Get rid of “Motor Voter”, vote by mail (Oregon), photo ID to register AND vote, new rules for recounts, ballot security. Everything on the table. If you allow illegals to vote, your state is disenfranchised.
Only one-third? Slackers, they got paid for all the precincts.
