Title: US election officials confirm irregularities
Post by Unforgiven on Dec 16th, 2016 at 12:47am
Donald Trump's election is a smoking ruin as Russian hacking and voting irregularities are exposed.

Is it possible that the electoral college could refuse to vote for Trump?

US election official confirms ‘irregularities’ in Michigan presidential count

There are more concerns for voting security after the US election was run and won in November.
Donald Trump has abandoned the stew of Washington politics for the rest of the week just as another controversy begins to erupt – this time over “voting irregularities” in a key state he won at the November election.

Thousands of ballot papers are missing in the closely-fought Michigan count, which Mr Trump has officially carried by a margin of around 11,500 votes.

The news came on an otherwise benign day for the President-elect who welcomed confirmation of his victories in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania by election officials.

Michigan was one of the swing states that delivered the White House to Mr Trump even though every opinion poll in the month leading up to the November 8 election had opponent Hillary Clinton winning comfortably.

An official recount of votes was held in Michigan last month but many ballots cast in the Democratic stronghold of Detroit were not retabulated for legal reasons.

President-elect Donald Trump told to accept Russia hacked election
Under Michigan electoral laws, votes cannot be recounted in precincts where the number of ballot papers sitting in ballot boxes does not match the number of voters ticked off by election-day officials.

Election administrators detected such mismatches in more than 300 Michigan precincts – most of them in Detroit.

Michigan elections director Chris Thomas told The Detroit News that the mismatches also involved cases where electronic voting machines registered more votes than election workers had manually recorded.

“It is unusual when we open a ballot box and find 50 ballots where there should be 370,” he told the Detroit newspaper. “So, we’re going to look at those precincts.”

Mr Thomas rejected suggestions that Michigan now had a reputation for mis-counting votes at presidential elections.

“Obviously, there have been problems over the years – but I have seen great improvement – so we’re surprised,” he said. “We have not seen this in recent history.”

Russian hacking is a lie! More likely Seth Rich the murdered DNC worker leaked the emails to Wikileaks.

     
Comey to Trump: Russians Didn't Influence Election

In telephone conversations with Donald Trump, FBI Director James Comey assured the president-elect there was no credible evidence that Russia influenced the outcome of the recent U.S. presidential election by hacking the Democratic National Committee and the emails of John Podesta, the chairman of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.


What’s more, Comey told Trump that James Clapper, the director of National Intelligence, agreed with this FBI assessment.

The only member of the U.S. intelligence community who was ready to assert that the Russians sanctioned the hacking was John Brennan, the director of the CIA, according to sources who were briefed on Comey’s conversations with Trump.

"And Brennan takes his marching orders from President Obama," the sources quoted Comey as saying.

In Comey's view, the leaks to The New York Times and The Washington Post alleging that the Russians tried—and perhaps even succeeded—in tilting the election to Trump were a Democratic Party effort to delegitimize Trump’s victory.

During their phone conversations, Comey informed Trump that the FBI had been alert for the past year to the danger that the Russians would try to cause mischief during the U.S. presidential election.

However, whether the Russians did so remains an open question, Comey said, adding that it was just as likely that the hacking was done by people who had no direct connection to the Russian government.

"It's also unclear," the sources pointed out, "why Putin would have preferred dealing with Donald Trump, who has promised a major military buildup, over Hillary Clinton, who would have continued Barack Obama's cautious policies toward the Kremlin."

Hillary did really well in Detroit.

Voting machines in more than one-third of all Detroit precincts registered more votes than they should have during last month’s presidential election, according to Wayne County records prepared at the request of The Detroit News.

Detailed reports from the office of Wayne County Clerk Cathy Garrett show optical scanners at 248 of the city’s 662 precincts, or 37 percent, tabulated more ballots than the number of voters tallied by workers in the poll books. Voting irregularities in Detroit have spurred plans for an audit by Michigan Secretary of State Ruth Johnson’s office, Elections Director Chris Thomas said Monday.

Come on.  It was clearly a 'rigged election'.

Trump's call to Putin to hack the US elections was met with ready compliance.

The creep is a traitor..plain and simple. By his own words he shows his colours, and they are foul.

I looked for your sarcasm emoji but you left it off.

If the Demonrats had known they could loose they would have cheated more times in more States. The same News Media that lied through the election continues to make false claims to attempt to de-legitimize the Trump Presidency.

Looks more like the Orange Groper team falsely believing that the Democrats would cheat chose to counter cheat not understanding that the Democrats cheating at the ballot was only a rumour that they had started themselves and untrue.

Ballot boxes with 320 votes missing ????

fraud in ballot boxes in over 300 locations in one electoral region.

There is obviously some serious under the carpet sweeping required, this election stinks.

No wonder the republicans don't want votes counted. 50 people vote and they get 320 votes registered ?

I didn't lose. However if you think you won something good luck with that, don't know that winning with an orange sexual predator will end up looking good on your resume - Embarrassing really.

Have a look at all the poor winners we have here, understandable since in reality they won nothing.

Looking at that whole process, I can see NO legitimacy for The Creep.

I wonder if he'll call on Russian hackers to look up any of HIS business in e-mails etc. ..!! 8-) ::)

Orrrrrr  perhaps they already have .??  Perhaps..??  Never doubt it.


Nah  the guy is so flawed I cannot imagine he will be actually upheld as the The President.

I mean the idea itself is ludicrous.  Perhaps Americans really ARE as stupid as they appear to be.  ::)
