If it was a true data entry error, it was likely a total going from precinct(s) to state level.

Allowing a person who counts the votes to keep that job while running in an election is just lame

Absolutely. Bad enough that those machines are in use. Bad enough that anyone is allowed to

That would be easy to determine if it happened. If not, then it aint an innocent error.

run their own election - regardless of how the votes are counted and cast.
To have 100% nonverifiable computerized "voting" machines being used by a man running his own election is so off the rails it should have been headline news when it was first revealed. Just another corrupt SOS story to file away.

(7,629 posts)8. yep -- here it is again:
It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.

They must still have the first generation, no paper trail voting machines.
Great stewardship of your responsibilities, Kemp .
