My son-in-law lives in another county now, but is still registered to vote in the previous county he lived in. He hasn't changed counties yet. Could be other people in the same situation.

My daughter did register to vote in her current county but her husband had not gotten around to doing it yet.

Nope. I was pretty clear about what was stated.

There was massive voter fraud in Detroit. No way for you to spin it as something else.

Nope. You simply presented an uninformed opinion.

Yes, I understand that you demand that others see your opinion as fact.

Perhaps you should take it up with Christopher Thomas, the Michigan Director of Elections, who is on record as saying that the problems are more likely due to other factors than supposed 'voter fraud'.


And 'massive'?

Are you saying the story about more votes being registered than voters is false?

Are you saying that this is dead certain proof of "massive" voter fraud when the state director of elections in Michigan says it isn't?

You didn't answer the question. I didn't expect that you would.

But I will answer yours. Yes.

The many inaccuracies found in Wisconsin is also quite embarrassing for Wisconsin -- though that state showed the random non-partisan errors that you'd expect with legitimate (rather than deliberate) mistakes.

At minimum, Detroit needs much greater oversight and regulation to ensure the accuracy of their vote.
Do you have more information on Wisconsin?

I live in WI, and from what I've heard in my county at least that inaccuracies were small and were mostly attributable to ballots that hadn't been filled out well enough for the scantron machines to read, but were readable by humans. The number of uncounted votes, I understand, were in the very low hundreds, and were statistically insignificant. Have you heard otherwise?

It appears that you like playing "gotcha", but only under your rules.

So your qualifications for rendering this opinion, in direct contrast to the judgment of the Michigan Director of Elections, are what exactly?

That director of elections should be fired. Massive fraud happened under his watch. What do you expect him to say? The point being. The topic isn't about me as much as you wish to make it so in vain attempt to discredit what the recount discovered there.

The fact is that across 248 Detroit precincts there was an average of about three more votes cast than were recorded on the workbooks.

An average of three per precinct.

That's not evidence of "massive voter fraud".

No matter how much you want it to be so.
