Just The News: A Michigan Republican received a welcome shock when his apparent loss at the polls was reversed due to the county’s fix of a “technical glitch” that originally had him losing the election.
Adam Kochenderfer was originally declared the loser in his race against Democrat Melanie Hartman for a position on the Oakland County Board of Commissioners. The narrow race appeared to end with Hartman the winner by just 104 votes.
Yet the county clerk soon discovered that a set of absentee ballots had actually been reported in the voter totals twice. Once the duplicate set was removed, Kochenderfer came out ahead by 1,127 votes. more
Uh huh. ‘oops’.
I guess we can expect to see more of this with the pressure put on them to come clean.
Lisa Brown did NOT kill herself….
Recording one batch of ballots twice? That’s not a “technical glitch”. That’s the result of human action, either error or malfeasance.
Aaaaaaaand, Biden is on TV again.
CBS says “President Elect” and on the lower left it says “Projection.”
@MJA:
I agree with the seeing more of this, but I don’t think it will be these people “coming clean”. That would imply that they knew they did something wrong/illegal. It seems more likely we’ll be hearing a lot about bogus “technical glitch” corrections, 100% of which will result in votes moving from the D column to the R column.
Wonder if there are any similar incidents that will never be exposed and we will never know about?
And who knows how many of them there are.
There is no “computer glitch.” Computers don’t glitch. It’s not even a “software glitch” because software doesn’t glitch either. The programs (aka software) carry out the program as instructed by the programmer. The software and/or the computer don’t just get a random tick and decide that 2+2=5. Everything has been carried out exactly as instructed. Don’t let these assholes get away with their corruption by blaming the machines. The machines did a perfect job, exactly as instructed.
We Fixed the Glitch!

Is it a prerequisite to be retarded to be an election official or just a sad coincidence?

@Richard Cranium — To give credit where credit is due, the election officials here in Florida do a pretty good job. There was in the long run a good outcome from the horrible 2000 election fubar, at least in the rest of the state apart from Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, and even there they’ve improved their systems if not their corrupt overseers.
