More Than 10,000 Dead People Cast Ballots in Michigan, Analysis Shows
More than 10,000 people confirmed or suspected dead have returned their mail-in ballots to vote in Michigan, according to an analysis of the state’s election data.
By: By Petr Svab, November 10, 2020:
Story continues below advertisementAbout 9,500 voters confirmed dead through the Social Security Death Index (SSDI) are marked in the state’s mail voting database as having returned ballots. Another nearly 2,000 are 100 years old or more and aren’t listed as known living centenarians.
The analysis was provided by Richard Baris, director of Big Data Poll.
The data indicates that somebody else was trying to vote on behalf of these people. The Michigan Department of State denied knowledge of such instances.
“It’s also entirely possible that some of them aren’t even real people,” Baris told The Epoch Times via email. “If someone is 110 or some ridiculous age, we should have their death record but do not.”
Americans older than 110 are exceedingly rare; only a handful of such seniors are known to live in Michigan.
According to the 2010 Census, there were 1,729 centenarians in Michigan (pdf).
When asked to comment on the data provided by Baris, Aneta Kiersnowski, press secretary for Pennsylvania Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, directed The Epoch Times to a “Fact Checks” page on the department’s website.
“Ballots of voters who have died are rejected in Michigan, even if the voter cast an absentee ballot and then died before Election Day,” the site says. “Those who make claims otherwise are wrong, and the lists circulating claiming to show this is happening are not accurate. Many of the lists do not contain enough information to accurately compare them to the Michigan Qualified Voter File. MDOS and news organizations have drawn samples and reviewed samples of lists claiming to show votes cast by deceased individuals in Michigan. We are not aware of a single confirmed case showing that a ballot was actually cast on behalf of a deceased individual.”
It’s not clear if their information pertained to the data provided by Baris, which hasn’t been circulated online.
Tracy Wimmer, Benson’s director of media relations, previously provided similar comments.
“Ballots of voters who have died are rejected in Michigan, even if the voter cast an absentee ballot and then died before Election Day,” she told The Epoch Times via email.
Baris wasn’t convinced though.
“While I’m open to the idea some of these have been rejected, I’m not open to any outright dismissal they all were rejected,” he said in a Nov. 8 tweet.
The data on how many ballots were rejected isn’t available yet, Wimmer said.
She said that “a ballot received for a living voter may be recorded in a way that makes it appear as if the voter is dead.”
“This can be because of voters with similar names, where the ballot is accidentally recorded as voted by John Smith Sr., when it was actually voted by John Smith Jr., or because of inaccurately recorded birth dates in the qualified voter file.”
This only happens “on rare occasions,” she said.
Democratic nominee Joe Biden leads in Michigan by less than 150,000 votes. The Trump campaign filed a lawsuit in Michigan to halt vote counting until Republican observers are granted adequate access. The GOP-led Michigan legislature is investigating allegations of election irregularities in the state.
In a Nov. 9 lawsuit, a Detroit poll watcher alleged thousands of mail-in ballots from people who weren’t properly registered to vote were added to vote counts.
Poll operators were adding names and addresses to the poll book with made-up birth dates, such as 1/1/1900, he said in a sworn affidavit.
Baris said the mail voting data he worked from likely isn’t up to date enough to capture any irregularities that happened Election Day and after.
“If they did that on Election Day in Michigan, then we likely wouldn’t know until December,” he said. “If it is true, then they’d, unfortunately, get away with it in the short-term.”
President Donald Trump is challenging the results of the elections in several states where Biden holds a tight lead. The Trump campaign is alleging invalid ballots were counted for Democrats, valid ballots were thrown away for Republicans, and Republican ballot watchers were prevented from meaningfully observing the vote-counting process.

Establishment swamp boy Karl Rove steps up –
(Pig face) Karl Rove: Trump’s legal efforts won’t change the outcome of the race
By David Sherfinski – The Washington Times – Thursday, November 12, 2020
Karl Rove, the past political guru to former President George W. Bush, said President Trump’s legal efforts in a handful of states aren’t going to be enough to change the ultimate outcome of the 2020 election.
…
“To win, Mr. Trump must prove systemic fraud, with illegal votes in the tens of thousands. There is no evidence of that so far,” he said. “Once his days in court are over, the president should do his part to unite the country by leading a peaceful transition and letting grievances go.”

He was snorting a different tune when his buddy, GWB was having the hanging chads being counted for fraud….

Rove should have a capital “L” tattooed on his forhead for “Loser”. He was the magic man that presided over 9-11, got thousands of american boys slaughtered in a war to “bring democracy to the middle east” (GWB quote written by the loser), and gave us the reign of the muslim because he refused to have the fbi and cia tell america who that pos really is.

So they admit files are rejected ‘automatically’ which begs the question then “Where is rejection list” the state claims are automatically rejected?
(1) Only. – “Election officials and county, township and city clerks can access information about the Qualified Voter File online”

(2) QVF is not open to the public

Michigan allows anyone who shows up to vote. If the identity is successfully challenged they are given a provisional ballot that goes into an envelope rather than the tally machine. We are told that the provisional ballots would only be counted in a contested race BUT that has never made much sense to me. And where do those provisional ballots go? Well your guess is as good as mine.
The entire thing is a mess! When we had a Republican SOS she proudly told everyone that “we check ID” at the polls bur what she omitted is that the name on the ID did not need to match the name on the poll book! I personally wrote to her office asking for guidance on how much deviation in the name would be acceptable, if any. But no guidance was ever given. The de facto rule in Michigan is “Show me an ID, any ID, and you get to vote.”

You know I would support Trump declaring Martial Law in this situation. Put the military in the streets and use them to help audit the votes. The election was stolen by the democrats. If we do not take action now we will never see another conservative elected. You snooze you lose think about it.
