A reported spike in voter registration numbers in Ferguson, Missouri, since the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager by a white police officer was the result of an error by election officers, state officials said on Wednesday.

The St. Louis County Board of Elections reported earlier this month that nearly 3,300 Ferguson residents had registered to vote between Aug. 9 and Sept. 30, in time for the Nov. 4 election.

But election commissioners ran the wrong report, said Laura Swinford, spokeswoman for the Missouri Secretary of State's Office. There were in fact just 128 newly registered voters in the St. Louis suburb.

I don’t care who you are - now that’s funny. 3,300 versus 125... Liberals were drooling that the electorate will throw out the bums!

The St. Louis County Board of Elections reported . . . 3,300 . . . in fact just 128 newly registered voters in the St. Louis suburb.

I'll bet the person who counted 3,300 registrations the first time gets a job on the Democrat team for recounting close elections, and the honest one will get fired due to staffing cuts.

Probably the same morons who count the votes at election time.

Reuters is the English effort to keep Joseph Goebbel’s Nazi propaganda ministry alive. Reuters is the most anti-semitic organization, after Al Jazeera and George Soros, to lay mountains of hate on Israel.

Perhaps if they vote for more democrats, the situation in places like Ferguson, or Detroit, or the South Side of Chicago, or Baltimore, or other places will improve
