Miller-Meeks Campaign: Scott County Recount ‘Unreliable’ (Iowa)
The Iowa Torch ^ | 11/25/20 | The Iowa Torch

OTTUMWA, Iowa – The Scott County recount board has now adjourned, despite knowing that a significant discrepancy remains in its tabulation of the absentee ballots received by the Scott County Auditor and included in the certified election results.

According to the auditor’s records, 64,052 absentee ballots were counted in the election. The recount board’s report states its members counted 64,183 absentee ballots. When this discrepancy was discovered, the county auditor stated to the recount board that she believed the recount board’s number was inaccurate and that the recount board should determine the cause of the discrepancy.

The representative for State Senator Marinnette Miller-Meeks, R-Ottumwa, on the recount board requested that the recount board conduct a full machine recount of the absentee ballots. This would have allowed the recount board to verify the total number of absentee ballots and to compare the machine recount tabulations to those previously reported by the auditor and to the tabulations in the recount board’s proposed report. The recount board voted 2-1 to reject the proposal and instead decided to adjourn. The recount board report was not signed by the Miller-Meeks representative due to the unexplained discrepancy in the total number of absentee ballots.

The cheat is on!

Somebody should create new lyrics for the old Glenn Frey song, The Heat is On, to represent what is happening in our country.

This is going on in WA too. Is there ANY state where Democrats did not make a mess of the election?

I am quite familiar with Scott Co. Lived about an hour south, across ol Muddy in IL. Scott has a lot of Rock Island arsenal workers, along with the usual area trade unions. Democrat stronghold.

“The Iowa Secretary of State’s unofficial results as of Wednesday afternoon has Miller-Meeks [R] leading by 43 votes, 196,888 to 196,845, but does not include recounts in Clinton, Jasper, and Scott counties where Hart [D] unofficially picked up votes.”

Standard procedure, of course, is to have as many recounts as necessary (with newly discovered votes thrown in, almost always in favor of the Dim) until the D gets his/her nose ahead, then there is no need to count any longer.

It would be helpful if the article had said how many votes those counties added to the total.

We went through this is in the Iowa caucus in the beginning of the year:

Democratic can’t even count (without cheating) with their fingers and toes.

Think of it as devolution in action—they are _dumber_ than apes.

I had forgotten all about that! How true. Democrats are incompetent and crooked. Quite the combination.

Oklahoma, AFAIK. We don't use Dominion.

I am concerned about the State of Virginia. Perhaps it turned blue with the help of voting machines. Gade (R) lost to Warner (D) even though Warner was a dull candidate with no accomplishments after 12 years as a Senator. He was a boring speaker with many Senate votes against the will of the people.

Analysts predicted that Virginia was in the run to turn Red, but it did not.

Maybe there should be an audit of Virginia.
