I have been a teacher in a community college for over 27 years, so cheating is an anathema to me, but I do not consider this cheating in the same way that the Dems actually steal elections. These were actual votes that were accidentally left off the report given to the AP. The Dems "found" enough votes to put their candidate over the top by a margin that could be manipulated in a recount. When these REAL votes were included in the totals, they were out of luck.

BTW, this woman in NO way deserves to be fired. I just made a similar mistake this week when I printed out an earlier version of a document that I had saved before I added another paragraph. I happened to have printed a copy of the complete document so I had a record of that paragraph. I have never worked an election, but I know that it must be very stressful when there is a high turn out for a hotly contested election. Real mistakes are made all the time. That is why the votes are canvased and rechecked before the election results are certified. As Jesus said, let you who are without sin (i.e. perfect people who have never made an honest mistake) cast the first stone!

I think we should send her flowers.

She should never have been in that position. Why should the AP get access to unofficial results, they can wait for the official results, just like everybody else.

Exit polls and release of unofficial results, before the final official results are release, should be banned.
