Serious shenanigans may have gone down in Pennsylvania's special election on Tuesday.
From the Washington Free Beacon:
Lamb currently leads Republican Rick Saccone by just 627 votes and there are still absentee and provisional ballots that have not been tabulated, but Republicans are already preparing for the likely recount and even a possible lawsuit regarding issues at polling sites, according to a Republican source familiar with the deliberations.
"We're actively investigating three instances and likely to file court action on them," the source said.
Among the listed concerns are "miscalibrated" voting machines in Allegheny County, the only county of four in the district that went for Lamb, according to the source, who said there have been many reports of voters who intended to vote for Saccone ending up casting a ballot for Lamb.
Furthermore, Republicans say their attorneys were ejected from polling sites as the absentee ballots were still being counted and that due to confusion caused by the Pennsylvania secretary of state website people were directed to the wrong polling locations.
Republicans have demanded that all ballots and voting machines be impounded in preparation for the likely recount.
Republican sources are circulating prior investigations into Allegheny County election officials by Pittsburgh's local ABC affiliate, which found the county was hiring people with criminal records and little election experience to manage polling sites on election day.

Toally agreed. People are tired of RINO’S and establishment Republicans.
Thanks Enlightened1. Of course the DNC cheated, and not for the first time, and not for the last time. Cheaters cheat. It's what they do.
Why in the hell can’t we have PAPER ballots? So it takes a couple of days to count them ... big deal, it takes MONTHS to sort out this digital mishandling BS.
If Republicans want Democrats to win, why do Republicans control the House, Senate and why did Trump win? That said, Democrats do cheat and will do anything to win.
If you talk to friends and family you’ll run into a lot of people who would traditionally vote GOP but who are still very disturbed by Trump. That, I believe, is the reason these special elections are showing such a huge vote swing from November 2016. Part of it is people changing their votes, but a lot of it is just GOP voters sitting out an election due to their concerns about Trump.
This is why the IG report, hopefully accompanied by multiple criminal referrals from a parallel DOJ investigation, is so important. If massive criminality is demonstrated on the Dem side, those not-so-solid GOP votes will return in November.
But if things remain about as they are now, November is going to be a happy time for the Democrats, in my opinion.
One reason Trump should fire Sessions. he needs a person who can investigate the voting fraud and all the DNC schemes to win.

I think that is very true.
Current trajectory means Democrats win a lot in November.
That trajectory becomes very different if the IG Report shows that the DNC and the Media and the CIA were all conspiring to corrupt the political process and trample the rights of the voters. If that comes out, then November will be a month of retribution against the Democrats.
But I hope the Trump Admin can get info out soon.
This happened in Montgomery county Alabama to steel the election from a totally innocent Roy Moore. Now it has happened in Allegheny county in Pa. When will we take steps to protect democracy? This is REAL meddling with the outcome of elections. I am hoping for real evidence of vote steeling to really put the dems away.
AND for weak and cowardly Republicans!! They should have fought to stay at the counting location(s)!
In my case as an example, I lived in an unincorporated community of some 40,000 residents. We contracted our law enforcement to the constable's office instead of the county sheriff.
So why did congress push a voting technology that cheats voters? Since this happens in every election then why are these machines still allowed? It is easy to cheat with them- Thats why.
We need to go back to paper ballots and inked fingers. PERIOD!
“Among the listed concerns are “miscalibrated” voting machines in Allegheny County, the only county of four in the district that went for Lamb, according to the source, who said there have been many reports of voters who intended to vote for Saccone ending up casting a ballot for Lamb.”
Already ready “re-calibrated.” You won’t find any prof there.
“Furthermore, Republicans say their attorneys were ejected from polling sites as the absentee ballots were still being counted and that due to confusion caused by the Pennsylvania secretary of state website people were directed to the wrong polling locations.”
This claim was made during the election. I was called a conspiracy monger for posting it.
“Republican sources are circulating prior investigations into Allegheny County election officials by Pittsburgh’s local ABC affiliate, which found the county was hiring people with criminal records and little election experience to manage polling sites on election day.”
And they hire undercover democrats registered as republicans to be poll watchers.
Nope- No vote Fraud. Republicans just run crappy elections. Nothing to see here. Just move along.
These machines should be banned, They can change the vote total to the desired number any time they want. There is absolutely no safe guard , there is absolutely not paper trail. It is total madness. They will eventually have a insider planted to expose rampant theft of the elections like Montgomery Alabama and Allegheny ,Pa. I watched Allegheny county wait until the vote was down to a 95 vote difference with 3% left uncounted and then this massive “vote dump” was manufactured by the dems to steal the election using manipulation of data from Allegheny county to do it. It was totally blatant. This needs to be life in prison without parole for conviction of of any voter fraud. This is happening over and over and republicans just avert their gaze. Where is Jeff Sessions?

Just like the Democrats whining about ‘Russia’- Nope- you didn't have ‘boots on the ground’, the right ads in the right places and a candidate who did what they needed to do. Whining about “Soros” or “Voter fraud” doesn't excuse laziness and incompetence.
“Never ascribe to malice that which can be explained by incompetence” - Napoleon
I think many do not understand that a *LOT* of people did NOT vote ‘Republican’. Heck many of them didn’t even vote for Trump; they voted AGAINST Hillary. The fact that Trump won by 20 percent points means NOTHING if the other candidate doesn’t have the negatives of Hillary.
I've no doubt that many irregularities, as well as foreign nationals voting, occurred.
However, if one is voting, and your intention is to vote for the (R) and the voting machine changes your vote to the (D)...why would you finalize your vote? I would be raising hell and not leaving the place until my vote was corrected.
Even if the switching occurs after finalizing the vote, I wouldn't leave the place until they deleted that vote and allowed me to vote again.
I mean, at the very least, you immediately contact local authorities to say your vote was hijacked and you've been disenfranchised. Put it on the record right away.
Agreed.
