More ballots turn up in Broward (FL)

Seven days after the election ended, and two days after the results were unofficially certified, Broward elections workers Monday said they had found 963 unaccounted-for ballots in a warehouse.

They were put in the wrong place, members of the Broward County Canvassing Board were told on Monday.

"How can you lose them? This is terrible,'' said Dania Beach candidate Chickie Brandimarte, whose close race won't be called until at least Tuesday.

Elections Supervisor Brenda Snipes said it's customary for more votes to be added to the totals until the Nov. 18 final certification.

"Everybody who's been around for any period of time knows that managing paper is a chore, and you don't count it overnight,'' she said. "What we do, and we've found it beneficial, is to comb the entire plant looking for something that may have been put in the wrong place. It happens. And when we did that, that's when we identified [the additional] votes.''

They should look deeper into that warehouse. I’m sure its full of ballot boxes from years past, that just weren’t needed. Probably 4-5 illegals working there as well, filling out ballots in a production line.

There are already mag strips on most state issued photo IDs. Use them along with facial recognition at the point of ballot issuance. Once issuance is registered, anyone attempting to get issued another ballot for any reason other than correcting a miscast vote prior to tabulation should be arrested on the spot. Or, you could use purple fingers...

Because of the current crisis situation in shortages in Democratic votes, I have ordered a release from the Strategic Ballot Reserve. Prefilled Democratic ballots will be shipped from the reserve to warehouses, trunks and street corners in Florida to be "found". Shipments will continue until the crisis of Republican victories has abated.

“the discovery of additional ballots is a customary part of the process”

Wow, couldn’t wait to tell you guys, I just found 400,000 uncounted ballots in the trunk of my car and I have no idea how they got there.

They are from Philidelphia, Broward County and Ohio. I just went through them and they are all Republican votes.

I guess Obama didn’t win after all.

Has to be documented facial recognition. Mag strips can be altered. IDs can be faked. Data on IDs and on mag strips can be faked. Put a person’s face against a facial recognition program, and you put fear of getting caught on the table, federal offense sort of stuff.

Purple fingers won’t work here. It would be just one election cycle and someone will find a solution or agent to remove the ink.

Perhaps we need to institute the same “chain of custody” guidelines that are use in evidence gathering to manage voting records.

That is the way it used to be. But now we must do away with all that paper, it kills trees.

Voting machines only kill Republics, easy choice.

Voter ID laws are no good unless they are properly enforced.

They do not stop fraud committed with the software in our voting machines.

Ask all those Poker Players about how cheating was managed in their online poker sites.

It is not the voters, it is the vote counters.

Can we start a pool to see how the votes break D vs R? I’m betting at least 80-20.

Why not be like Philadelphia and try for the whole 100%?

Ballots “found” in warehouses should automatically be void.

Agreed, except for the probability that RAT plants in Rebublican precincts will find ways to "lose" ballots, invalidating them.

And if they still have over 100% after the recount, revote or throw out the winner’s ballots, IMO. Then jail whoever runs the election in that district.

“Strategic Ballot Reserve”

Hahahaha! That’s pretty good!

They DID say they had ballots in the “bank”. Just another in a long long line of “coincidences” with this character.

You could use fingerprinting too. The technology exists to do it - don’t let anybody tell you otherwise. You register to vote with a fingerprint, then you have to use a fingerprint to get a ballot. It could be set up so that you get a paper trail of your ballot and can register that information at a point outside the polling place also - then we could actually check against claimed voter rolls as well.

The bottom line here is that there has to be something better than what we do now - there are no checks and balances to the process...
