Is there any explanation, official, unofficial, foreign, domestic, etc., as to how an unbiased count can produce mistakes and or found ballots so overwhelmingly in one direction. Statistically, this has got to be a true and simple impossibility.

The best explanation is not mathematical, but the simple fact that 'Rats are in charge of the county election boards that are finding these "mistakes."

I believe that Minnesota uses an optical scanning ballot system with a safeguard of returning to the voter any ballot that is not not marked for at least one race so he/she may correct his error. But that's not good enough for the 'Rats - now it seems they want any mark on the optical scanner ballot near a candidate's name to count as well, whether the circle or oval corresponding to that candidate was darkened or not.

This is true for the random errors only.

But IF the voters for one party are on average more stupid than those of the other and make stupid mistakes that cause their ballots to be rejected by automatic reading methods, then a manual recount could find more votes for the one with the stupid voters.

Just saying.... It actually makes a good case that some people should't be voting in the first place....
