In reply to the discussion: CODE RED – Computerized Election Theft and the New American Century [View all]PeaceNikki
(27,985 posts)78. I was there and read it 4 years ago. The melodrama and silly rumors were bad enough in real time.
My favorite was a ridiculous rumor that one of the poorly sealed bags from one ward in Delafield had TEN-THOUSAND ballots in it during the recount.
There were about 350 in that bag from Delafield and the total population is ~ 7100.
Those are the "facts" the internet gives you. I'll work with the real facts, not the melodramatic bullshit spread around the internets, TYVM.

There were lots of problems with poorly sealed bags. We've changed bags since then because of that.

I'm not arguing that there aren't potential issues, I'm arguing no evidence of intentional fraud
