In listening to the trainer, it seems that if a person claims that he has not voted, but the records show he has already mailed in a ballot, then it seems the appropriate action is to compare the signature on the mail-in ballot to his signature on the provisional ballot.

We should consult our local elections offices to see what their protocol is in such a situation. Is this Detroit example standard practice throughout the USA?

It sounds like they have already done fake absentee ballots, so if the person comes in to really vote give them a false ballot so they won’t make a fuss.

To me it’s no different than enemy military forces landing on coastal shores, airdropped over resource centers and communications, or raiding infrastructure from the air.

What would Washington, Jackson, Grant/Lee, Lincoln, Teddy R, FDR, Eisenhauer, JFK, or Reagan do? Trump may belong in that category some day but our nation is being overtaken by those who hate it.

Anyone know what the voter ID requirements are in Michigan?

so easy that it you don't have to actually exist. Maybe R's should send in absentee ballots marked straight ticket GOP on behalf of aborted citizens. Logic implies that their party preference would be self-evident.

In 2010 a poll worker in Eagan MN tried the same nonsense with me. I was told that I had already voted. This is nothing new.

The poll trainer is exactly right here. If someone comes in to vote and there is already a ballot logged, your only choice as a poll worker is to issue him a provisional ballot. If he continues to argue then it's up to him to report the suspected fraudulent absentee vote to the bureau of elections. The poll worker is also right that the provisional will not be counted because there will already be a vote under his name.

The poll workers are not equipped to deal with reports of fraudulent absentee ballots. She's also correct that if things get heated she's going to call 911. This issue should not hold up the procedure for the other voters in the precinct.

The comments about "tearing up the provisional" are premature. If the voter reports fraud, then the provisional will be held while the accusation is investigated. HOWEVER, the one ballot will not be counted if it does not affect the outcome of the race unless there is a recount.

You wouldn’t need a lot of lamp posts, just a few to set an example of consequences.

Sorry, I haven’t watched this video but this doesn’t sound anything like fraud...

What the instructor sounds like he is talking about is when someone voted early or mail in voted and then shows up on Election Day and wants to vote.

When they show up and want to vote, you inform them they already have... because the book says they already have. If they are adamant they haven’t you give them a provisional ballot.. they complete it and it goes to the county where they can straighten out the issue.. if the voter hadn’t voted upon investigation the provisional ballot will get counted... if they find he had already voted the provisional ballot is not counted.

This is SOP procedure for anyone that comes in demanding to vote, but you cannot prove they should or disprove they haven’t already. This isn’t fraud.

How is it possible that there are no Republicans in this group who would blow the whistle? I thought poll worker SOP was to have equal representation.?.?
