93,136 EXTRA Votes
Found In ONE Ohio County

You may have seen the associated press story about the
precinct in Cuyahoga county that had less than 1,000 voters,
and gave Bush almost 4,000 extra votes.

But that turns out to be only the tip of a very ugly
iceberg. The evidence discovered by some remarkably careful
sleuthing would convince any reasonable court to invalidate
the entire Ohio election.

In last Tuesday's election, 29 precincts in Cuyahoga County,
Ohio, reported votes cast IN EXCESS of the number of
registered voters - at least 93,136 extra votes total. And
the numbers are right there on the official Cuyahoga County
Board of Elections website:

Bay Village - 13,710 registered voters / 18,663 ballots cast

Beachwood - 9,943 registered voters / 13,939 ballots cast
Bedford - 9,942 registered voters / 14,465 ballots cast
Bedford Heights - 8,142 registered voters / 13,512 ballots cast
Brooklyn - 8,016 registered voters / 12,303 ballots cast
Brooklyn Heights - 1,144 registered voters / 1,869 ballots cast

Looks like people voted on fear instead of the economy.

The media is not letting us know what the heck is going on. Looks to me like they have been counting provisional ballots today? Not sure though.

So next week we should expect the media and the Democrats to be all over this, right? Kidding of course.

sad but true

if a huge smoking gun shows up, some lawyer slinking around Ohio would jump on it. Yes? No?

Hi there,

I'm still not sure this explains it, but when Keith Olberman looked into this several days ago, officials explained it as the way they report absentee ballots. I still find it peculiar that they would report it this way, as a vote surplus, so perhaps it is still worth looking into. Perhaps adjusting for absentee votes would do the trick to balance out those numbers. If not, please post again and tell us what you find.

Warmly,

George

they belong to? They need to be checked against the poll book. They can't just dump them anyplace.

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

Get me all excited about some old recycled news

These votes were evidently not part of the total. But the method of dropping them into single precincts instead of having a line item for absentee ballots, if that is what they were doing, seems designed to sow confusion to keep us from seeing something else.
