Mid-term Election 2022 Live Thread – Welcome to the Party Pal!

[Hoodat]

Just voted in Fulton Co, GA.  There was an entire army of poll workers there to assist with voting.  No line, but traffic was steady.

When it came to ID, I showed them my federally issued TWIC card instead of my GA driver's license.  They said they couldn't find my registration records.  I had to get on the phone with someone in downtown Atlanta.  They asked for my DL number which I gave them.  And voila!  They found my registration.

While this was going on, I had whipped out my phone and pulled up my personal voter registration page.  I then showed it to another poll worker who typed in my name.  It came right up.  Clearly the first poll worker had misspelled my name even after being asked three times to confirm they had spelled it correctly.

Anyhoo, I voted Libertarian in three races, GOP in the rest.  Did my research on the City Council race.  Voted in favor of every tax cut.  Voted against every bond referendum.

Prediction:  Herschel wins without a runoff.

DeSantis Pushes Back Against Biden DOJ Monitors Interfering in Florida's Election

JAVIER MANJARRES  |  NOVEMBER 8, 2022

The DeSantis administration is pushing back against President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice's apparent effort to send in election  “monitors” inside state-run polling locations within several Florida counties.

In a letter to  John “Bert” Russ, Deputy Chief & Elections Coordinator for the Department of Justice by Florida Department of State General Counsel Brad McVay, the DeSantis administration warns that under Florida statute,  DOJ monitors “are not permitted” inside Florida polling locations.

But Department of Justice monitors are not permitted under Florida law. Section 102.031(3)(a) of the Florida Statutes lists the people who “may enter any polling room or polling place.”  .  .

ABC reports Republicans should expect their leads to "crumble completely" in a "red mirage" as mail-in ballot dumps are counted

Joel Abbott  ·  Nov 8, 2022

This is totally fine and normal, good citizen. 2+2=5.

https://twitter.com/ABC/status/1589635310169866242

The title of this story is this:

Early election night results might not indicate final tallies (and why that's OK)
And super-totally-non-partisan ABC says we'll see a "red mirage" instead of a red wave.

Mhmm.

As early Election Day results come in on Tuesday, it will likely appear that a Republican candidates vying for any number of the federal or statewide races appear to be leading their Democratic opponents, even by large margins.

Their leads will dwindle, or crumble completely, after perceived "dumps" of votes are recorded by state election officials who count mail-in and absentee ballots in the days -- or even weeks -- following Election Day.

Even weeks, dear comrade! It could take weeks for election officials to count the ballots!

OK GOP, with Katie Hobbs as SOS, it's time to walk in with the lawyers and start screaming 'ballot security' and 'chain of custody' loudly in the media, Maricopa county, and right to her face.

The Gov and AG need to be on point too. This is unacceptable BS.

That's more than enough to demand that those machines be secured, sequestered, and counted separately with Rat and GOP officials observing.

WTH.

Fulton County fires 2 poll workers after concerns over social media posts

November 08, 2022 at 11:44 am EST

JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — Fulton County election officials fired a poll worker and her son after they expressed concerns with social media posts.

The two workers were fired about 15 minutes before the polls opened at the Ocee Library. Fulton County Elections confirmed the workers are a mother and son.

The county’s elections interim director Nadine Williams said another worker overheard a comment made by the woman at a poll worker event. The peer also found social media posts made by the worker and reported them to the county.

“We sent that information to Secretary of State’s Office to ask if it should be under investigation for concern,” Williams said. “They also looked at the social media posts and said they agreed with the concern and that it’s our decision to remove.”

The county removed the workers until they can complete the investigation.

Williams said she could not comment on the nature of the posts, but the county “wanted to make sure the election was secure.”

“There were some things in there that were not allowed. You cannot take videos or photos in the election, so that’s what brought it to our attention,” Williams said.

A spokeswoman confirmed that officers responded to the library after two poll workers refused to leave. When officers arrived, the two people left without any incidents. Police said there was no arrests or incident reports filed.

Fetterman Claims Democrats Will Stage Late Night ‘Comeback’ After Early Tallies Lean Republican
by Cullen McCue
November 8, 2022

Last Updated on November 8, 2022
Pennsylvania’s Democrat nominee for U.S. Senate, John Fetterman, claimed that Democrats will stage a “comeback” after election day totals favor Republicans. The senate hopeful pointed to mail-in and absentee ballots, which cannot be counted until election day under Pennsylvania law. Still, many have questioned the validity of lengthy delays in counting votes, pointing to other states and foreign nations that count more votes in a shorter window of time.

“Counting for ballots cast by mail and early in-person cannot begin until Election Day, thanks to the GOP-controlled legislature — an intentional move to help Republicans baselessly sow doubt about the election results when it suits them,” Fetterman wrote in a memo to “interested parties,” The Washington Post reported.

“Pennsylvania is one of only eight states that bans pre-processing of early mail-in ballots, forcing county officials to wait until 7 a.m. on Tuesday to begin opening returned ballots and scanning them into the system,” he added.

Fetterman pointed to the more than 1.4 million mail-in ballots requested in Pennsylvania, which tend to skew towards Democrats. This is especially true in the Keystone State, as Spotlight PA recently reported that more than 70% of mail-in ballots requested came from registered Democrats.

“The biggest share of absentee and mail ballot requests came from Allegheny County [which includes Pittsburgh] and Philadelphia — nearly a quarter of the total,” Spotlight PA wrote.

In Pennsylvania, mail-in and absentee votes cannot be counted until polls open on election day. “Because Pennsylvania is one of the only states that reports Election Day totals first before ballots cast by mail, and because more populated counties around Philadelphia can take longer to report, we should expect one of the most dramatic shifts in the country from initial GOP support in early results to stronger Democratic gains as more votes are processed,” Fetterman said.

Michigan Activists Witness Suspicious Late Night Activity at Innocuous Warehouse at 3 AM Near Detroit Election Center

...Our sources have witnessed suspicious activities in Detroit for several days now.

Over the weekend, concerned citizens, driving in two cars, followed a Penske rental truck from the Detroit Department of Elections to a non-descript, one-story warehouse in southwest Detroit.

The truck ran at least one red light, possibly related to an attempt to shake the followers. Once there, the citizens initiated a round-the-clock vigil that, at press time, is still ongoing in a bid to observe any illegal activity such as illegally-manufactured ballots being injected into the flow of legitimate ballots.

Once the truck arrived in the parking lot, the citizen vehicles parked and began observing very peculiar activities: in the space of a few hours, 12-15 cars arrived at the gate of the warehouse, slowed as if about to turn in, only to turn around or drive on once the surveillance cars were spotted.

There is a printing company located directly across the street from the warehouse and it is known to have ballots – printing capabilities, including for the 2020 election.

I voted on the first day of early voting in Brazoria County, Texas.  This morning at 10:30 there was a long line and by 11:30 that line had grown to twice its size. It's good to see so many voting!

The problems with voting in AZ show you one thing, if SoS Katie Hobbs can't handle ensuring the machines were ready on election day, how would she handle an emergency as governor? Let's hope the good people of AZ never have to find out.
