Michigan county flips back to Trump following election software update
Just the News ^ | November 30, 2020 | Daniel Payne

Election software in Michigan's Antrim County that had incorrectly directed Democratic votes to presidential candidate Joe Biden was updated Friday, putting thousands of votes correctly into President Trump's totals.

The software had reportedly caused a significant number of votes to be allotted to Biden in a county that has for years been reliably red. In the presumed final count, Biden had originally led in the county by roughly 3,000 votes. Revised totals show that Trump won the county by around 2,500.

The error came after an election staffer failed to update the software to adjust for changes in a local ballot, state officials said following the incident.

Addressing the mishap, Michigan GOP Chairwoman Laura Cox said Friday during a press conference that "47 counties [in Michigan] use this same software in the same capacity."...

Exactly.

Ukraine and the Middle East are counting on a reduction of American oil production.

I followed the trail of information through the Net. It was the County Clerk’s error (human error).

Yes. This is warmed over news.

Unless there’s more to add, in which case it ought to have been an UPDATE with the new content at the top.

I think they loaded that ‘algorithm’ into a voting machine in a Red County. They corrected it pretty quickly as the article is actually from Nov 5. But the ones in the already blue counties probably stole just as many from Trump and should be redone. But they are BLUE so cheating is their Modus Operandi.

How many here know this was actually taken care of on November 6th...and NOT today? Funny the article doesn't mention it. But if you search "antrim county election results 2020" - you will see articles from that date and this exact same story.

So - let's re-run an old story and pretend it's new.

Sorry. This article is from Nov 30. But I looked up the ‘news’ here and this happened on Nov 5.

Update the software ? What is so hard about counting the actual votes? Just damn, I'm tired of all these idiotic excuses.

Seems unreasonably reliable to always switch votes to bidet from Trump.

If it's that easy to take away 6000 votes from Trump by accident can you imagine what could happen if it was done on purpose?

Trump won the county to 4,000 votes in 2016, by almost 2-1, and it was showing before than Biden had won the county by 3,000 votes.

How many times does this have to happen to acknowledge that this is not a “glitch” but a feature?

Seriously

Why is no one screaming about how a “software update” changes who won a county by thousands of votes?

That entire company needs to be arrested at gunpoint and held in jail.

This is not a mere glitch.

Mediass is complicitly silent.

Trust me if the left thought they had been screwed over theyd be leading the charge and their mediass xonspirators would be stirring up riots and protests nationwide

“Didn’t the same thing happen in PA with abot 6000 votes last week or the week before?”

I can’t keep up with all the fraud.

If I didn’t work on spreadsheets all day at work, I would have started a spreadsheet to keep up with all the news.

A legit software update should not cause vote totals to move between candidates anymore than an upgrade to Microsoft Word would be expected to alter the font you chose to use in a document.

A software glitch that affected only one specific county? Riiiiiiight.

More likely that as a tactic to deflect growing accusations of electronic fraud, they updated the software to correct a small number of flipped votes, a number small enough that it would not change the outcome. Their hope was that it would be enough of a bone tossed to the critics that it would make it harder for them to continue to claim fraud.

Correct. It is a feature.

How many of these other counties looked to see if they had this feature?
