Campaign for Michigan GOP Senate candidate James accuses state officials of voter suppression

Just The News: The campaign for Michigan GOP Senate candidate John James is accusing state officials of voter suppression and election interference in the candidate’s bid to unseat the Democratic incumbent.

Campaign consultant Stuart Sandler told Fox News that Team James is concerned about “a lot of irregularities.” 

James appeared to be the winner of his Senate race until ballots started pouring in during the middle of the night, a situation similar to that for President Trump. The Associated Press on Wednesday called the race Trump’s Democratic challenger Joe Biden. more

  1. It is straight out of the Democrat playbook:

    Discovered ballots
    King County Council Chairman Larry Phillips was at a Democratic Party office in Seattle on Sunday December 12, reviewing a list of voters whose absentee votes had been rejected due to signature problems, when to his surprise he found his own name listed. Phillips said he was certain he had filled out and signed his ballot correctly, and asked the county election officials to investigate the discrepancy. They discovered that Phillips’ signature had somehow failed to be scanned into the election computer system after he submitted his request for an absentee ballot. Election workers claimed that they had received Phillips’ absentee ballot in the mail, but they could not find his signature in the computer system to compare to the one on the ballot envelope, so they mistakenly rejected the ballot instead of following the standard procedure of checking it against the signature of Phillips’ physical voter registration card that was on file. The discovery prompted King County Director of Elections Dean Logan to order his staff to search the computers to see if any other ballots had been incorrectly rejected.

    Logan announced on December 13 that 561 absentee ballots in the county had been wrongly rejected due to an administrative error.[14] The next day, workers retrieving voting machines from precinct storage found an additional 12 ballots, bringing the total to 572 newly discovered ballots. Logan admitted the lost ballots were an oversight on the part of his department, and insisted that the found ballots be counted. On December 15, the King County Canvassing Board voted 2-1 in favor of counting the discovered ballots.

    Upon examination of the discovered ballots, it was further discovered that, with the exception of two ballots, none of the ballots had been cast by voters whose surnames began with the letters A, B, or C.[15] There was a further search for more ballots, and on December 17, county workers discovered a tray in a warehouse with an additional 162 previously uncounted ballots.[15] All together, 723 uncounted or improperly rejected ballots were discovered in King County during the manual hand recount.

    Chairman of the Washington State Republican Party Chris Vance stated that he was “absolutely convinced that King County is trying to steal this election.” The National Rifle Association, which had endorsed Rossi, sent a mass e-mail on December 14 to its members asking for volunteers to go to King County in order to sit in on the county elections office and observe the recount.

    The Washington State Republican Party filed a restraining order in Pierce County District Court, requesting an injunction against King County to block the tabulation of the uncounted ballots.[16] The request was granted on December 17, but Democrats appealed to the Supreme Court. On December 22, the court ruled against the Republican Party and overturned the restraining order, allowing King County to count all ballots.[16] The next day, Sam Reed issued a statement explaining the process for certification of the uncounted ballots and the standards for fair voting practices in the state.[17]

    Protesters gathered in front of both Democratic state headquarters and Republican state headquarters in the days after the injunction against King County’s discovered ballots. On December 21, Republican protestors rallied in front of the Washington State Supreme Court Building dressed in orange and holding signs saying “Welcome to Ukraine”, comparing the inclusion of the discovered ballots to the election fraud in the recent Ukrainian presidential election.[18]

    After all other counties submitted their recount votes, it was revealed on December 20 that at least five other counties besides King County had included ballots that had been discovered after the initial count. For example, Snohomish County included 224 missed ballots that had been discovered underneath mail trays. The outcome of the State Supreme Court hearing regarding King County’s votes could have potentially affected those counties’ counts as well.

    And never forget one thing: The Republican establishment, the Bellevue boys, went along with it. They were all too happy to let the Democrat machine steal the gubernatorial election.

  2. A John James victory would be Huuuge! This one needs to be fought, contested and overturned. He was declared the winner last night, before the fraudulent ballots flooded in.

  3. On my days at work when I do deliveries/pickups I did a lot of driving in four counties including mine. I saw John James signs everywhere but more importantly in yards WITH Biden signs. I’m not buying it. He won.
