Box of Stashed Ballots Could Invalidate Contested Broomfield Election [vote fraud Colorado ]
Colorado Observer. ^ | January 8, 2014 | Leslie Jorgensen

In the wake of lawsuits and complaints against Broomfield for attempts to cover up and ignore problems in the error-riddled November election, city officials now admit finding a box containing about 75 ballots that for unknown reasons were not counted or reconciled to the voter records.

...

Unknown is where the ballots came from, why they were tossed in a box, who had access to them and why they were not properly processed – even spoiled ballots are processed and documented to reconcile election records. Blank ballots are processed through the voting machines and accounted for.

The box of ballots is the latest quirk in questions about the integrity of the Broomfield election. Records also indicate that Susek or a city employee repeatedly logged into the ballot accounting database as the administrator and downloaded vote tallies repeatedly for two weeks before the Nov. 5 election.

...

Broomfield election officials have been accused of numerous election violations that were detailed in a scathing report by Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler’s office. Last month, Marilyn Marks of Citizen Center filed a detailed complaint with the Secretary of State’s office and two lawsuits were filed by BBEC.

On behalf of Broomfield, Tuthill filed a lawsuit against Marks to block her access to public election records. The case was heard Monday by Wasserman who allotted 10 days for the both parties to file summary arguments.

Maybe they should look for matching names in the local cemetaries.

Broomfield was a small bedroom community until a bunch of high tech firms such as Sun starting building huge business campuses there.

The original council got run out of town for Peyton Place like shenanigans (affairs, etc.)

I lost track of what happened after the eBusiness "Congruence Corridor" went from boom to bust.

I have a feeling that this has more to do with typical human failings (e.g. the seven deadly sins) than Democrat vs. Republican.

Yup. Didn't it get voted down.

It was a pretty nutty ballot issue to begin with and a couple of counties voted to ban fracking. Lol.

“I really have serious contempt for people who dither with election results”

Everything hinges on fair elections. Execute those who tamper with a fair voting process.

In San Francisco they just dump the whole box in the bay

Weren't they just throwing the identifiable boxes in the bay, unopened?

Not just disposing of the contents...

Holder’s boss told me that I should not listen to those who say I shouldn’t trust government people....

I was listening to a radio show relating to the Broomfield election. It seems a box of ballots from boulder had been sent by maybe Fed Ex to the Broomfield election officials. The official did not have any documentation for the ballots but wanted to count them anyway. After word of the ballots got out she backed off but count results went form one party to another. With a goofball governor like Chickenpooper why would any one expect any action on voter fraud. Chickenpooper is the one that would not even talk to the state Sheriffs over the unworkable gun laws.

[ These are the same people who insist “we won, you lost, now shut up”.

I really have serious contempt for people who dither with election results, not that I am naive to think it doesn’t happen all the time. It’s obviously another brick on the side of the scales against amnesty, as far as I’m concerned. I think the penalties should be severe. ]

They need a machine where in order to register the vote you stick your arm in it and it takes your finger prints. If it detects the finger prints do not mact the name or the name and finger prints were used already inthe same election a guiotine blade comes down and solves the voter fraud issue for you....

No repeat offenders of vote fraud....

Granted that is a bit extreme, maybe why not just prosecute voter fraud the same way treason is not prosecuted anymore but used to be....

billions of dollars worth of transactions happen online securely every year

why don’t we have a voting system that cannot have votes ‘added’ without belonging to valid voters? why can’t we stop multiple voters? why can’t we verify our voting slip after the fact to insure it was counted properly?

it’s VERY possible... of course, then they wouldn’t be able to muck with the outcomes

The Democrats can basically commit voter fraud and get away with it — without the RNC ever stepping in to do anything about it.

So these are either extra ballots to boost the liberal view or conservative ballots removed to make the count.
