Bizarre Findings In Maryland This Week
On May 22, 2020
South Carolina election ballots reportedly ended up in Maryland this week, after mail-in voting for the Palmetto State’s June 9 primary has already begun, according to local news reports.
South Carolina election officials may cut ties with the company they used, Minnesota printer SeaChange, over the mix-up after about 20 Charleston County absentee ballots were found outside the state, the reports say.
Election officials say this isn’t the first absentee ballot issue they’ve had with the company, which prints and mails ballots for 13 South Carolina counties.
Some voters in Greenville County received the wrong absentee ballots when the Democratic presidential primary and the special election for sheriff were held just 10 days apart, Election Commission spokesman Chris Whitmire told the Post and Courier. Voters in Charleston received ballots that were folded in a way that made them tough to read by scanning machines.
In a year that will see record numbers of absentee voting due to the coronavirus pandemic, the election integrity of absentee voting has become a major issue, particularly among Republicans who warn of possible voter fraud.
With less than three weeks before the June 9 primary for state and local seats, South Carolina has already issued 20 percent more absentee ballots than the total for the 2018 primary, according to Whitmire.
This comes after November 2018 Richland County failed to count 1,040 votes, submitting results two days after the S.C. Democratic primary because election officials realized they could not account for dozens of ballots. In March 2020, Richland County again realized it was short dozens of absentee ballots, forcing a recount by hand.
President Trump has repeatedly lashed out at state leaders’ push to expand voting by-mail this election. On Wednesday, he threatened to hold up funding to Michigan for sending out absentee applications to all voters.
“Michigan sends absentee ballot applications to 7.7 million people ahead of Primaries and the General Election,” Trump tweeted. “This was done illegally and without authorization by a rogue Secretary of State. I will ask to hold up funding to Michigan if they want to go down this Voter Fraud path!” In an earlier since-deleted tweet, Trump had claimed that Michigan had sent out absentee ballots to all Michigan voters. The below picture shows a private citizen who received 88 vote-by-mail ballots Friday!

This will be a nasty nasty nasty election year. We knew that coming in. Thank heavens for the Electoral College unless something goes wrong there and there’s always the likelihood that something will go wrong. Even with all we know, the swamp has not been drained and Schiff and that detestable Smalwell are looking for an investigation of Trump’s handling of the CCP virus (see the Epoch Times). What more could Trump have possibly done? Obama should follow George W. Bush and keep his mouth shut.

Obviously we need to put the polling stations into Supermarkets. They seem to be the only large indoor places everyone trusts to go to.

roy, roy, roy.....Ya know man, I really do get fed up with you leftist parrots calling anyone who likes many things Trump is doing his "followers".
I sure do get tired of you people, and your blanket insults. Tempts me to launch into you with an explanation that would include some very colorful language.
But, I'm better than that, so I'll just write it off as people who are too self centered, bigoted, and stupid to look at anyone other than through a political viewpoint.
It's truly a sad state that we're in, and you're part of the problem.
Now......AS YOU WERE!!
