I woke up yesterday at around 0500 EST and looked at the election results. At that time Rosendale(R) was ahead of Tester(D) in the Montana race for the US Senate seat. I checked back at around 0730 and Rosendale was still ahead by several thousand votes with something like 94% of the precincts reporting. I then look again at around 1100 and Tester had been declared the victor?
The absentee and and few outstanding precincts were mostly in Missoula and Butte both heavy blue areas. Early Wednesday I looked at the outstanding vote and knew Tester would win. Nothing appears nefarious.
Arizona is going to be very close as they have around 600,000 votes they are counting with almost 80 percent of those in Maricopa County that was essentially split between McSally and Sinema, Pima County that went for Sinema has sizable outstanding vote and the remainder are in mostly Red counties. The blame for loss here will be Ward and Arpaio voters that refused to vote for McSally. We just prefer to shoot ourselves in the foot rather than opponents.
Your sentence basically says his coat tails were good enough
This also happens in Michigan. 94% of the precincts reporting DOES NOT equal 94% of the votes cast.
Larger cities, such as Missoula in your case, have more votes to count, so they are often among the last to report, and being more urbanized tend to sway more Democratic.
In Michigan, it's usually Wayne county that encompasses Detroit, Warren, and Dearborn, that reports last, and always breaks heavily Democratic. John James was narrowly leading Debbie Stabenow in our Senate race until Wayne county reported and put Dangerously Incompetent Debbie over the top.
Rosendale currently is State Auditor...
Oh so the republican is gonna lose in Arizona?
The libs’ bubba fatboy stole this election. Just more banana republic bull****.
‘They really just want to be left alone and live their lives their way’
So they vote for the Dem?? I suspect vote fraud here PLUS Leftist invaders.
My BIL always said, “ The man with the pencil wins”. It is always Dems and always newly discovered votes."
Ted Cruz ain’t from Texas and we voted for him.
"You know, comrades," says Stalin, "that I think in regard to this: I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this — who will count the votes, and how."
We have many references in our own history to these acts, especially involving the 'finding' of votes. LBJ became famous as 'Landslide Lyndon' and Joe Kennedy Sr reminded his son, JFK, that he did not want to buy any more votes than was absolutely necessary! Just remember, the MSM and the political LEFT are unanimous in agreement that voter fraud is very rare and no effort should be spent on validation or ID requirements.
—yep—remember what put Al Franken in the Senate—Minnesota dems kept “finding” missed ballot boxes for about 3 weeks-—
Damn.....sounds like Arizona.
We (AZ) have to be the laughing stock of the country right now!
The Democrats spent a LOT of money on Tester, and you have to ask yourself “Why?”
What great ideas and programs has John Tester brought to the United States Senate?
Nothing.
He’s a cheap thief who can be bought.
That’s why the Democrats support him.
Same thing happened in Dave Brat’s election.
He’s 2-3,000 votes ahead all night then suddenly after 94% reporting it flips to the CIA agent.
This was all from Dona Ana County which is Las Cruces. It’s obvious that Torres Small supporters, or outsiders paid with money from the far left libs, went throughout the area registering everyone they could find, likely poor Hispanics, legal or illegal, and providing them with absentee ballot applications.
BTW, in NM as required by the 1912 state constitution, election ballots and related material must be written in both English and Spanish.
If a Democrat was running, it was rigged. If the Democrats won, they stole it.
We once had this very same thing at a no longer existing website community I was a member of. It was very focused crowd investigation and research. But even with hard proof and screenshots we were mocked and called tinfoil hat crazies.
