It’s deliberate. The chaos is designed by Democrats to throw the country into complete disorder and confusion.

Michigan Rejects More Than 10,000 Absentee Ballots, Including Some From Voters Who Died

By: Brianna Lyman, Daily Caller, August 15, 2020:

More than 10,000 absentee ballots were rejected in Michigan’s Aug. 4th primary, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s office said Friday

At least 6,400 ballots were turned away because they arrived after Election Day, while 787 were tossed out because the signature did not match the registration, according to Benson’s office. Another 1,111 were rejected because the voter had moved, and 846 were not accepted because voters died “after casting their absentee ballot but before Election Day.”

“The data demonstrates that thousands of people who cast otherwise valid votes were not able to participate in last week’s election solely because the Legislature failed to act ahead of the primary,” said Benson. “With turnout and absentee ballot numbers expected to double or even triple in November, we could be looking at tens of thousands of Michigan citizens disenfranchised if the legislature fails to act.”

The news comes right after the U.S Postal Service warned Benson in a letter that mail delivery times posed a “significant risk” to ballots sent too close to the election which could lead to their disqualification, according to The Detroit News.

USPS General Counsel Thomas J. Marshall wrote to Benson that Michigan election laws were “incompatible” with the Postal Service’s delivery standards.

“This mismatch creates a risk that ballots requested near the deadline under state law will not be returned by mail in time to be countered under your laws as we understand them,” Marshall wrote.

Michigan law allows voters to apply by mail for a ballot until Election Day, and allows for ballots to be sent to voters until four days before the election, according to The Detroit News.

Marshall warned in his letter that this can impede the chances of a ballot being received by Election Day and said voters should submit their ballot requests early enough to be received by election officials at least 15 days before the election.

Benson is calling on the Michigan legislature to pass two reform bills ahead of the November election to prevent issues seen in the primary, according to her office. One bill would allow mailed ballots to count if postmarked by Election Day even if they arrive up to two days late, while another would require clerks to contact voters if the signature on the absentee ballot does not match the one on their registration………..

The spurious Democrats will, as always, do their utmost to hijack elections. It is in their perfidious DNA. The Michigan authorities, however, are more astute than the Democrats assumed. If Michigan’s overseers dug deeper, they would likely uncover more bogus ballots. How or why the Democrats have circumvented indictment for voter fraud is mind-boggling. Of course, it is not mind-blowing; after all, the lack of voter registration is of third world status.

It plays into the Democrats’ hands, enabled by the corrupt and treasonous within the system; a system in want of revision.

The reason more has not been done is because there are far too many transrepublicans. I have met too many of these, born after 1960 that say the are Republicans, but seem to have too many Democrat friends.
I’m told they don’t talk politics, but they know how there Democrat friends vote. None of the guys have ever served the nation in uniform, but think looking like Schwarzenegger makes them manly. While they say their too busy to take a stand for conservative causes they have lots of time to travel, go to the gym and fish, weekly poker games and snowmobiling and sports.

Well we all knew that this election would see “The Walking Dead 2020” become a reality. Maybe they should just put postal boxes in cemeteries give the poor dead a break when voting..

Look how this morning’s media is beside themselves on the Post Office. Listen to this Podcast which debunks this nonsense.

They won’t get ’em all.
But some good news. CNN yesterday said Biden was only 1% in the lead over PDJT.

So that means, in reality, that PDJT has a HUUUUUGGEE lead, to paraphrase the President.

Pelosi is recalling congress form Vacation in order to find a means to enhance voter fraud via the post office.
Speaker RINO Ryan blocked any attempts to stop voter fraud as did Pelosi.
And no righteous Judges arose form “We the People” to take them out. This is why Liberals banned dueling. If duelling were still legal a lot of democrats and house speakers would be but memories on tombstones.

Every county elections office in the US could do everyone a huge favor if they were to compare the database for qualified voters against the database for death certificates issued and see if there are any names that match.
