When they don't get what they want, This Dem commissioner does what they all do - charge others they disagree with as being RACIST. So, the Republicans caved.

Had the county board not changed their vote, it would have went to the state board of canvas, which is also split evenly along party lines, it would not have gone to the republican led legislature.

As was pointed out earlier, the discrepancies were usually less than 5 per precinct...and this is in line with pretty much all elections in the area...and likely in many parts of America.

The pathetic part here is that Livonia, which is 90% white had a higher rate of discrepancy than Detroit, which is 80% black...yet the 2 republicans were just fine with certifying the county other than Detroit.

Bottom line, yes, it's over.

dude, do you even math or do you think everything that republicans do is racist? Population of Livonia is 94k, population of Detroit is 672k...

Do you? It was not the total number of discrepancies, it was the percentage. The percentages were higher in Livonia in relation to the number of votes cast.

14% discrepancy in Detroit will still be more votes than a 100% discrepancy in Livonia... 07-coffee3

Dude, just stop. You're embarrassing yourself.

If the shoe fits...the GOP lackey's were far more despicable. Have you seen the Facebook page of one of them?

Awww did I hurt your feelings? If we cant agree, then why don't we 100% canvass and audit the state before certifying the election? I mean, if Biden won the state, then the left shouldn't have anything to worry about right? 07-coffee3

You? 03-lmfao Not a chance. Biden won the state...I have nothing to worry about. I'm not the one flailing around holding onto the last snowflake in hell.

And again, every county does a canvass already. There's no need to audit the state when trump is behind by 150k votes. The state doesn't have the money to waste on such nonsense.

2012 Wayne County - Romney 214K, Obama 595K votes
2016 - Trump 229, Clinton 519
2020 - Trump 264, Biden 587

What looks out of place? Nothing. You really think Detroit would vote big for Trump? Yes, Trump has made inroads there the last 2 election cycles but it's not as if vote totals are out of whack. Trump got 35K more votes from 2016 to 2020, and Biden improved Clinton's total by 68K. That's a lot I suppose but Wayne County has a population of 1.75 million people. We're talking about voting totals that are significantly lower than most other counties in 2020.

Just for comparison, Oakland County is the 2nd largest county in Michigan (about 1.26 million people). In 2016, it was 343 for Clinton and 289 for Trump. In 2020, it was 433 for Biden and 325 for Trump. Way bigger voter increase in the 4 years, and a much, much larger voter turnout percentage. Oakland County might raise a red flag in my eyes, but Wayne County seems well within the expected margins.

I'm curious how many "local Republican" leaders there are since 21 of 22 elected leaders in Wayne County are Democrats from County Executive to County Commission to Sheriff to Clerk, etc. The lone Republican is one commissioner out of 15 county commissioners.

Or go north to Republican run St. Clair County:

2012 - Romney 53.0%, Obama 45.9% (Romney +7.1)
2016 - Trump 62.9%, Clinton 31.5% (Trump +31.4%)
2020 - Trump 64.3%, Biden 34.1% (Trump +30.2)

Or Macomb:

2012- Obama 51.6% Romney 47.6% (Romney -4.0%)
2016 - Trump 53.6%, Clinton 42.1% (Trump +12.5%)
2020 - Trump 53.3%, Biden 45.4% (Trump +7.9)

Trump wasn't doing as well in those counties that have become very Red, so if his margins were falling in his go-to districts (without fraud) it is logical to see that he will also lose ground in bluer counties.

Except polling indicated he did better with minority voters this time around. In fact, polling indicated the only group he did worse with was white suburban women. His margins among white suburban men stayed even. He did substantially better with African American men. So, no—blue areas, especially minority urban districts, actually should have been tighter than in 2016.

You sure have a lot of days off lately...did Big Gretch get you laid off?

And worry about yourself skippy...you have no idea how many hours I work or what my job entails and whether I have downtime, etc.

But no, how could you being totally wrong about something you know nothing about hurt MY feelings? The only thing that hurts is my belly from laughing so hard at your pathetic attempts to alter reality.

It. Is. Over.

what else would you like to know about my job? Do you want to know how many PTO days I have left? How about how much I make? Naw, don't ask me that, I don't want to make you jealous. And alter reality? What reality? What is over? Nothing is over until it becomes official. Has the election become official? Or are you saying that there are no lawsuits and states have already certified their elections and the electors have voted? 07-coffee3

So, no—blue areas, especially minority urban districts, actually should have been tighter than in 2016.

Now you trust polling?

Clearly, even in the reddest of counties in the reddest of states he, for the most part, didn't have the margins he did in 2016. That is just a straight up fact.

Even IF he did better with black, say 12% instead of 8%, he is still getting killed and is losing margins.



For example:

In a city like Memphis:

650,000 people. 63% black population.

Total of Trump/Hilly 324,000 votes in 2016.

Just say 55% of those were cast by blacks.

That is 178,200 votes by blacks.

If Hilly won 92-8, then she won 163,944 to 14,256. Meaning, Trump lost by 149,688 total votes in that demographic.

In 2020, 375,000 votes were cast.

Assuming, again, 55% of the votes were cast by blacks, that is 206,250 total votes cast by blacks.

Let's say Trump increased his black support by an amazing 50% and the split was 88-12 in Biden's favor, that would be 181,500 to 24,750, for a margin of 156,750.

So, as for the second bolded part:

Even IF Trump did better among blacks, the fact that MORE blacks voted caused him to fall even further behind in the vote totals, by 7,062 in this example.

Again, I'm just using logic and basic math.

His margins among white suburban men stayed even. He did substantially better with African American men. So, no—blue areas, especially minority urban districts, actually should have been tighter than in 2016.

Now you trust polling?

Clearly, even in the reddest of counties in the reddest of states he, for the most part, didn't have the margins he did in 2016. That is just a straight up fact.

Even IF he did better with black, say 12% instead of 8%, he is still getting killed and is losing margins.



For example:

In a city like Memphis:

650,000 people. 63% black population.

Total of Trump/Hilly 324,000 votes in 2016.

Just say 55% of those were cast by blacks.

That is 178,200 votes by blacks.

If Hilly won 92-8, then she won 163,944 to 14,256. Meaning, Trump lost by 149,688 total votes in that demographic.

In 2020, 375,000 votes were cast.

Assuming, again, 55% of the votes were cast by blacks, that is 206,250 total votes cast by blacks.

Let's say Trump increased his black support by an amazing 50% and the split was 88-12 in Biden's favor, that would be 181,500 to 24,750, for a margin of 156,750.

So, as for the second bolded part:

Even IF Trump did better among blacks, the fact that MORE blacks voted caused him to fall even further behind in the vote totals, by 7,062 in this example.

Again, I'm just using logic and basic math.

03-lmfao 50% of 100 is less that 50% of 1000.

Sad that has to be explained.

Yeah, got some rocket surgeons on here.

What a despicable POS.

If the shoe fits...the GOP lackey's were far more despicable. Have you seen the Facebook page of one of them?

Who does a personal background check on an individual over something like this? Seems like someone is searching for something to claim racism over instead of reviewing and agreeing about the data relevant to the vote count. Did the poll workers have Facebook and other methods explored to determine if someone might be able to call them a racist?

Michigan GOP Senate Majority Leader throws cold water on trump. Endorses for the beginning of the official transition. It. Is. Over.

Quote:Conservative groups have also started phone and letter-writing campaigns in an attempt to persuade legislative Republicans to decide the election for Trump.

“That’s not going to happen,” Shirkey, R-Clarklake, said in a wide-ranging interview with Bridge Michigan. He noted state law awards electors to the winner of the state’s popular vote. And Biden won the state by more than 146,000 votes, according to unofficial results.

“We are going to follow the law and follow the process,” he said. “I do believe there's reason to go slow and deliberate as we evaluate the allegations that have been raised.”

The legislative inquiry is not designed to change the outcome of the Michigan election, Shirkey told Bridge, noting he also wants to see those court cases play out.

“No state has certified yet, but I don’t have high expectations for these reviews, whether Michigan or otherwise, to ultimately change the results of the election,” he said.

Asked about Trump’s repeated claims that he won Michigan, the highest-ranking Republican in the state Legislature said he does not know what the president is thinking.

“I'd be hard-pressed to figure out why he's done a lot of the things that he's done, and said a lot of the things that he said, so I'm not going to speculate in this case,” Shirkey said.

He also suggested the Trump administration begin sharing information with Biden’s team, which the president has so far refused to do. Experts have warned that a delayed transition could jeopardize national security if Biden is not briefed on potential threats.

“I do think that it's inappropriate for the Trump administration to not start sharing information,” Shirkey said. “We don't want this to be all of a sudden one day you go from one to the other, and there's not been any opportunity for transition. I see no downside for staffs to be interacting and allowing a controlled and well-programmed transition process.”
