Ballots were run through the voting machines twice on election night.

I don't know why any ballots were "run through" the voting machines on election night. The voter puts the form into the optical scanner themselves and it is checked and tabulated instantly.

But that is exactly what the George Soros-supported secretary of state has agreed to do in the case of a Dinkytown precinct near the University of Minnesota. The hand recount of the liberal precinct produced 133 fewer ballots than the original count on election night and, more important, 46 fewer votes for Franken.

So he's proposing to defer to the election night total over the recount tally.


UnF'ingbelieveable.
