AP: Miami-Dade Election Results Audit Shows Problems!

Share article:

After reading the item posted here last night about what seems to have happened in Arizona, please take a look at what AP is now reporting as having happened in Miami-Dade…

A report released by the Miami-Dade Election Reform Coalition said during the elections there were “serious problems with policies and procedures that are supposed to protect the integrity of the ballot.”

In many precincts, the number of people who signed in to cast votes was not tracked carefully, or in some cases was not compared with the actual number of ballots cast at those precincts.

The group also said there was a touchscreen machine malfunction; when votes were tallied the results from one machine had been counted three times, creating a discrepancy of 171 votes that became part of the certified canvass, the group said.

“It slid right through and nobody caught it,” said Martha Mahoney, a professor at University of Miami and a group member.

Fifteen of Florida’s 67 counties used touchscreen machines, including most of the heavily populated ones.

Election officials welcomed the criticism and said the machine that gave a 3-for-1 tally has been sent for testing.

The item above, run this morning by AP seems to be a report on the same news item run by Miami-Herald almost three weeks ago which includes many more details on just how out of line the final results were from the information in the poll books.

All of this is a pattern that most of us — who have being paying attention — saw months ago. Will the MSM see it now that these various reports are being confirmed in various segments of the “legit” media?

    As you say Brad, this is old news. I guess since there are no runaway brides and Jacko’s case is winding down, the MSM is going back into real news mode … "Oh, and the 2004 election had problems" is added to the end of the list.

    President WAY down in the popularity polls, exit polls, and ethics is sorta not news.

    The fact that the Iraq war was decided a year or so before the moment of invasion is on a page behind runaway bride gets in trouble, and Leno tells a joke at Jacko’s trial.

    As Donovan said, "must be the season of the witch" journalists.

    Now that public opinion is swinging against Bush the MSM feel more free to say things which could be construed as anti-Bush.

    Just like some politicians, they’re blowing with the wind.

    If the public comes around their congressional reps and the press will reflect their interests and Bush could be in severe trouble. Without the public and press the congress won’t ever bother Bush with calls to testify.
