Because of the count mismatches, the ballots from those precincts would be ineligible for recount. "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan |

Not hardly. "After hours of angry responses from Wayne County residents, the change in course was approved by the two Republican and two Democratic canvassers with the demand that the Secretary of State’s office conduct a “comprehensive audit” of “unexplained precincts.” The two White Republicans made a deal. They approve only if an audit was done in the questionable precincts. If the audit isn't done the party can sue all the way to SCOTUS to get it done. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

The objection the Republicans had was because of these "unbalanced votes" One motion by one of the two republicans on the board was to certify all of the precincts in Wayne County, except Detroit. Note the largest discrepancy was in Livonia, and they were fine with that. They can also "demand an audit" all they want. While I think there should be one, their demand isn't binding on anyone, nor can their certification be conditioned upon one happening.

I dug through a lot of articles, and didn't see one which said the two republicans were white. There were a few reactions to their votes which called it racially motivated, though. But even those didn't mention the race of the republicans. I think it was a politically motivated stunt. "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan |

(I visit Livonia a couple times a year. It is a mostly white suburb.) Cant imagine why they weren’t upset about the vote discrepancy there. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

| Dalex64 Member since: Mar 8, 2014 Threads: 3 Posts: 3687 | The republicans are trying a "throw the baby out with the bathwater" strategy to try to steal the election. They are suggesting that since there MIGHT be some problems in some areas, ALL of the votes from those areas should be discarded! "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts."

| Aussie Member since: May 10, 2016 Threads: 2 Posts: 458 | How’s old Rudy going! What a total embarrassment. And to think some were lauding this guy as a legal genius based off some accomplishments 30 years ago. He’s the legal equivalent of a dementia patient trying desperately to function in an arena where he was above average decades ago. If it wasn’t so hilarious you might feel sorry for him. |
