North and South Carolina Report Ballot Issues

When you consider the probability that both govt and private sector are generating ballots, then you evaluate ballot centric issues accordingly.  County level ballots from two different feeder sources can present a problem at the scanning and tabulation stage, if there is any variance to them.

South Carolina – Berkeley County issued a statement Wednesday, Oct. 16, announcing certain voters are receiving duplicate absentee ballots. The announcement included that the county’s Department of Elections and Voter Registration is in contact with the state election commission about the incidents.

[…] “There were 246 absentee voters that were affected and did receive two ballots from the vendor that we use,” said Berkeley County elections director Rosie Brown. “I spoke to the state election commission, and they said there was a clerical error. But, doing our processes, all of our numbers matched, so I am not understanding the clerical error.” (link)

If you understand the lead-in paragraph, then you understand the “clerical error” perfectly.

North Carolina – NEW HANOVER COUNTY, N.C. (WECT) – Elections officials in New Hanover County say a mechanical issue that developed at the one-stop, early voting location in Carolina Beach did not interrupt the voting process.

WECT reached out to Rae Hunter-Havens, the county’s Elections Director, after being notified about an issue at the Carolina Beach Town Hall site. Alex Riley, the Communications and Outreach Coordinator with the county, responded by saying a piece of equipment, the DS200 that scans ballots, had temporarily malfunctioned and was swapped out. (read more)

If the scanner is aligned to only one format of ballots, and more than one format are floating around (depending on county) then temporary malfunctions are likely.

Do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.  Do the thing you can control, put aside the thing you cannot.

Each person can vote. Do it!   Make sure your voice is heard.

CLERICAL ERRORS:

When I faxed a request for an absentee ballot over 2 weeks ago, I finally called and was disappointed to hear from my county’s election officials that it was NEVER INPUT so no ballot was generated or mailed. NO EXPLANATION GIVEN.

Then I asked if I could VOTE IN PERSON because I could drive over 100 miles to make sure I vote in time. THEY SAID NO. My only option was an absentee ballot even though they never sent me one weeks before. I am still registered there and voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020. Their excuse was that I renewed my driver’s license in the county where my elderly mother lives where I am staying with and caring for her even though I own a home in their county.

SOLUTION: I called the county’s Republican party chairwoman and she contacted the Secretary of State and an attorney and got back to me to say I could vote in person and to contact her if I had any problems.

CONCLUSION: VOTE IN PERSON

I’ve come to the conclusion that voting in person whether early or on Nov. 5th is the only way to be sure that your vote is tabulated correctly. As I experienced, they can ignore ballot requests and then tell someone wrong information to prevent their vote from being cast.

I also wonder if there are DATA LISTS based on social media activity to identify democrats and republicans. If so, all kinds of clerical errors, misinformation, and altered ballots could lead some potential voters into the ditch. I can’t accuse any election person of anything but an honest clerical error – which is the point.

ON A POSITIVE NOTE I took my 93 year old mother to vote in person in her county this morning and they allowed me to assist her to vote for Trump/Vance. She and her rollator were 100 per cent successful!

18 days to vote before the actual voting day is plenty of time. They should take away every day except 1.

Would you consider 90+% turn out of registered voters in several counties in Va. to be a sign of fraud? This was recently reported from a study of the 2020 election. I think it smells.

In Florida, once you get the mail in ballot you can track online that it was received and then “approved” based on signature. Different issue than you face I know, but at least here you can make sure it made it and was counted with time to then vote in person as a last resort.

What is wrong with voting in person? Vote by mail is rife with fraud as admitted by every sane person prior to 2020. During 2020 it was supposedly the most secure fraud proof method ever but whatevs.

Vote in person. Early or on election day. Vote like your future as a free American depends on it.

They don’t have consciences.

But they do have a different thing – consciousness of guilt.

within the secret police spy state, consciousness isn’t a thing.

duty to control power and outcomes is a thing.

the secret police spy state operates on a different moral code.

they actually believe that what they are doing is the right thing for the country…that is to say, you and me just cannot be trusted to make important decisions about who is going to be president…(or governor, or congressman to be clear).

this is more than just silo’ed thinking in a vacuum.

these are highly “educated” people…they are like most elites…bubble people.

they do not shop local markets or drive to their vacations.

they see themselves as the most important articles of society…the “keepers”, if you will.

and a certain small faction in the upper echelon are psychopathic..killers…literally death cult killers. they do not even blink when giving an order to kill someone, or to force someone into submission. they operate on two basis of power: that they have the access and resources to do pretty much anything at any time to anyone

and that they are respected because they are feared.

yes, secret police spy states and the one in particular that operates here in the USA is dangerous…grave dangerous…is there any other kind?

challenge accepted.

when this goes down and it ends (at least this variant of it..because we understand evil happens throughout history and never truly goes away), they will claim: I was just a foot soldier. I was just following orders. I had a duty as “an officer” to follow commands.

AND AS HISTORY HAS PROVEN, these defenses will not be satisfactory.

this is a righteous cause. prepare for the war ..it WILL BE TELEVISED.

This is really messed up.

In my area of FL., our “secrecy envelope” does not seal, but our Ballot envelope does.

If it’s too humid or rainy and the mail gets left out for a couple days, inside envelopes *can* seal up.

*Hopefully* that is what happened in this case.

I figure President Trump will top 85,000,000 votes this cycle. At least that’s what will be reported. Probably closer to 90,000,000+ without cheating.

There’s no stinkin’ way Komrade Kam Kam tops 85,000,000 votes!

How, exactly, does voting “early” keep things honest? I’m asking a sincere question, not trying to be combative here.

How does *early* voting thwart fraud?

Are we physically placing our own ballots through the voting machines when we vote early? Or are we placing “early” ballots -aka mail in ballots- into a mailbox, or any other ‘box’ for someone else to handle down the road?

I know that in NY, mail-in ballots, which were generic and *unidentifiable* once removed from the envelopes, were kept separately and *not* counted until *after* polls closed on Election Day. As you can imagine, such a process can be rife with “irregularities.” The traitors to our country have plenty of time to “lose” the ballots they don’t like and insert the ballots they need to overcome the Election Day result.

In places like Commiefornia, ballot “harvesters” will keep adding those ballots indefinitely, for days or even weeks until the UNiparty hacks are satisfied they have overturned an Election Day result they deem to be unacceptable. And “harvesting” ballots in this way until the result is overturned is perfectly legal!

So I am asking why is “early” voting preferable to placing your own ballot into the machine to be counted on Election Day? I really want to know the reason.

There were many problems on election day in Arizona. The fear is that there will be problems at polling places where Trump voters vote.

Remember the sharpie pens that bled through the paper?

And the long lines?

And the voting machines breaking down at the polling stations?

And the lack of ballots available at the polling stations?

Since most democrats vote early, there is an incentive to steal the election by making problems happen on election day at republican majority polling places.

I think this is the reason President Trump is pushing for early voting this time.

“…there was a clerical error…”

“…equipment…had temporarily malfunctioned…”

Some suggest that one of the results of fundamentals including DIE, mass illegal immigration, and the other things increasing widespread dysfunction, is providing more cover for misdeeds.

Is this just incidental, or could there also be hidden “nudging” by actors with ulterior motives?

It does seem that dysfunctions are increasing at all levels in an increasingly corrupt sinking America. And everyone is becoming resigned to all this.

Increasing dysfunction drives more dysfunction and chaos. Dealing with all this saps time and energy, with resulting opportunity costs that preclude attention to important things. A negative synergy, driving society downward – with a “bonus” of cover for misdeeds. “Win-win” for actors seeking to subdue America as part of raising up the ascendant “multi-polar” global order.

Two key findings from the 2020 AZ audit was that only 2 tabulators were used to process ballots in the ten days after the election when 10 tabulators were available sending the daily processing numbers way down from the average ran prior to election day. leading for some to assume that those extra days were need in the adjudication process to change votes as needed for a specific outcome.

The second finding was that 140,000 ballots were not even processed until after the election had been certified by the governor and the electors selected.

The same election people are in charge for 2024 but now with an even more Democrat governor and Secretary of State and Attorney General. Yes this time it will be different. It won’t even be close.

I do hope any duplicate ballots are compared side by side to make sure the vote is the same. Straight Republican ticket, then both should match. Of course this won’t stop or prevent voting machines or tabulators from changing votes.

In Hennepin county MN, home to Minneapolis, your early mail-in or absentee vote goes right into the hands of the democrats.
https://alphanews.org/lawsuit-hennepin-county-failed-to-appoint-republican-judges-to-absentee-ballot-board/

Also, your vote may not even make it there.
https://alphanews.org/photo-shows-ballots-left-unattended-in-open-trunk-outside-edina-city-hall/

Why vote early when if you wait a few days your ballot will stay in your local system.
Direct balloting began on October 18, 2024. Direct balloting is when the voter inserts their in-person absentee voted ballot into a tabulator located in your local area. These ballots do NOT go to Hennepin county to be managed by all democrat ballot boards.

This Eric Weinstein clip expands on a ruse overlapping the ruse of using endemic dysfunction as cover*:

Feigning incompetence.

He claims Kamala is a lot smarter than we think, and warns to beware the neo-Marxist chameleon feigning incompetence.

It may be that the puppet exhibits incompetence as part of the act. This certainly seems to be the MO of the current regime occupying the WH.

Some might observe that his warnings based on historical Marxist genocides purging mass memory (to “unburden what has been”) may be missing the pattern apparently executing in the US, where the divided, isolated, censored, propagandized, and surveilled populace is beset by so many simultaneous increasing existential pressures that they simply cannot raise an effective resistance to the ratcheting techno-tyranny.

Slightly off topic – Saw this new lip reading interpretation if the Obama/Biden conversation at Ethel Kennedy’s funeral.
Obama talks about there being time (for what?)?and said he had quite a places he would be going to (I’m paraphrasing). So Obama’s since been to Arizona and today he was in Las Vegas (Clark County). He’s stumping for Kamala but is he also checking in on local officials and vote centers?https://x.com/CitizenFreePres/status/1847494217817313728
