The Michigan situation was a TYPO.

The massive jump in Biden votes out of nowhere is because Shiawassee county reported "153710" when it SHOULD have been "15371."

As you can see below, thankfully, the error was fixed.
Biden had 2,130,695 (at 4:04 AM)
Then 2,019,899 (5:19 AM)

======

Trump 51%...........2,217,540
Biden 47%...........2,019,899

Like that would have gone unnoticed?

BTW, Biden is still up 37K votes on your boy.

The votes still would have come in.

The % of votes in is an OUTPUT value it is not then used to calculate the result or other numbers.

And that was what everyone was saying all along. If that was an actual error, (or worse, fraud) the campaigns would catch it and fix it.

So, fixed.

Yawn. Not really. Recounts are VERY rarely successful, and the amount of shift Trump would need would be in the 10's of thousands its appearing. Historically recounts never get that high of a error.



Plus he would have to figure out if he wanted to waste millions doing it, or if it would be free if its too close. Right now its looking like a recount would require some cash spend.

Precisely.

As I said in another "voter fraud" thread - if that's as sophisticated as the efforts ever get, there is zero need to fret about "stealing" elections. Ever.

Similar mistake in Virginia-gave 100k votes to Biden. Gives you lots of faith in the system.

Just don't know how you make that type of mistake. Don't know how you have a system in this day and age that allows that type of error. Absolutely no controls.

I have seen this claim posted all over, nothing in any news source and no link back to where they got the data for this supposed bump.
