Report: ‘Glitch' Caused 6k Michigan Ballots Meant for Republicans to Go to Democrats
[Breitbart] Thousands of Michigan ballots that were meant for Republican candidates were wrongly counted for Democrats in at least one Michigan county, according to Michigan Republican Party chairwoman Laura Cox, who said 47 other counties used the same software that experienced this "glitch."
(Software worked as per original specs.)
Cox revealed the stunning error that occurred in Michigan’s Antrim County, which saw thousands of ballots going to Democrats instead of Republicans.

"If all this wasn’t enough, in Antrim County, ballots were counted for Democrats that were meant for Republicans, causing a 6,000 vote swing against our candidates," she said during a Friday press conference alongside Republican National Committee (RNC) chairwoman Ronna McDaniel. Local election officials "identified" and "reviewed" the issue on Wednesday.
(Most likely made the final decision to report this as a 'Glitch' when the DOJ announced they will show up. Expect more...)
"The county clerk came forward and said tabulating software glitched and caused a miscalculation of the votes. Since then, we have now discovered that 47 counties used this same software in the same capacity," she continued.

As a result, Antrim County had to hand count all of its ballots. Cox is now calling on the dozens of counties that used the same software to "closely examine their results for similar discrepancies."

"The people of Michigan deserve a transparent and open process," she said:
(If you can get past the Venzuelan Spanish computer programer's code, who was loaned to the Dems by Maduro himself. DNC Chair Tom Perez could understand the Spanish perfectly though.)

#3 That 47 * 12,000 votes (since each vote switched to Biden was stolen from Trump).

564,000 votes. Assuming that the counties all have the same populations and number of 'glitches'. Could be much higher.

#4 That's a lot of votes. Thought I read these votes then went into the Trump column. I wonder how many other glitches exist that should have gone into the Trump column. This ought to put all these blue states in question. BTW, my first comment was meant to be sarcastic.

#5 In other words JohnQC: WAD - Works As Designed.
Must be hard to write vote tallying software which has to cheat, but not cheat too much or too obviously....

#7 Same software (Dominion Voting System) as used in a number of other states, including most of the 'Swing'.

#8 I read somewhere that regarding these voting touchscreen/machines, 20% of the components have been made in China

#10 System "Glitch" or fraud, there is little denying the fact a fok of a lot of voters pulled the lever for Biden and the onerous Harris. Perhaps we have reached the tipping point, the point at which we no longer deserve a man such as Donald Trump.

Ah, but what if the task is to elect the Democrat candidate?

And does this glitch similarly affect the deep red states?

Computers have allowed man to make more mistakes, faster, than any other invention in human history. With the possible exception of Tequila and handguns.

#13 That 47 * 12,000 votes

It is about 5500 votes. The R - D vote count ~= 2750.

#14 More worrisome is are the machines that "glitch" one vote here, another vote there, including on any saved paper tape.

#15 More to #7 - As of September 2019, Dominion voting machines are used in 2,000 jurisdictions in 33 U.S. states and Puerto Rico.

That's Canadian 'Dominion', by the way, not Virginia.

#16  ∆ So the uncompiled human readable source code is safely outside the country. The Dem strategists that thought this corruption through did so thoroughly.

#17 And a openly political hostile one at that.
