Too many votes in 37% of Detroit’s precincts – IOTW Report

Too many votes in 37% of Detroit’s precincts

Oh, let me guess, The Russians!!! helped the Democrats?

DetroitNews: Voting machines in more than one-third of all Detroit precincts registered more votes than they should have during last month’s presidential election, according to Wayne County records prepared at the request of The Detroit News.

Detailed reports from the office of Wayne County Clerk Cathy Garrett show optical scanners at 248 of the city’s 662 precincts, or 37 percent, tabulated more ballots than the number of voters tallied by workers in the poll books. Voting irregularities in Detroit have spurred plans for an audit by Michigan Secretary of State Ruth Johnson’s office, Elections Director Chris Thomas said Monday.

The Detroit precincts are among those that couldn’t be counted during a statewide presidential recount that began last week and ended Friday following a decision by the Michigan Supreme Court.

Democrat Hillary Clinton overwhelmingly prevailed in Detroit and Wayne County. But Republican President-elect Donald Trump won Michigan by 10,704 votes or 47.5 percent to 47.3 percent.

Overall, state records show 10.6 percent of the precincts in the 22 counties that began the retabulation process couldn’t be recounted because of state law that bars recounts for unbalanced precincts or ones with broken seals.

The problems were the worst in Detroit, where discrepancies meant officials couldn’t recount votes in 392 precincts, or nearly 60 percent. And two-thirds of those precincts had too many votes.  more

  1. When you have decided never to work but live off the government you have to keep democrats in office.
    Trump should make all eligible young people work for their check. Even if they have to sweep the streets.
    On drugs no check

  2. Trump Justice Dept needs to build on the Dem-generated momentum and push for “comprehensive election reform” with voter I.D. front and center. Shove it up their ass and break it off!

  3. It appears that this call for recounts will come back to bite the Dems big time. If things are pursued long enough, it will probably be shown that Hillary did not even win the popular vote.

    I have felt all along that the reason Dems push for recounts, usually in Dem territory, is because they don’t see how they could have lost with all the cheating they know they did.

  4. Ballot box stuffing, underhanded primary, Loretta and Bill on the tarmac, Comfy Comey, complicit media, Brazil bamboozle, antagonistic debate mods, foreign money, a despicable president giving the green light to illegal voters and they still lost.
    No wonder they are so upset, they pulled all the underhanded cheater tricks they had in the bag and still were beaten like a redheaded stepchild.
    Can you imagine the landslide if this election had been fair?
    THIS is real news. There has never been a more stark example of the need for the electoral college. Sometimes cheaters never win.
