Indeed, when the Free Press audited all the recount ballots from Miami County, we found the so-called recount results differed noticeably from the official results. If these differences in results were discovered at the recount in 2004, Ohio law should have triggered a hand recount of all ballots in the county. That was never done.

every voting machine company is owned by neo cons....
yes with a hand count afew hundred votes could be stolen in an extremely dirty precinct but with electronic voting and recording thousands of votes can change with no explanation at all

Results Drastically Changed
The election numbers have radically changed in Monroe County since the May 18th election. At least as reported on the SoS website, and as confirmed by local officials.
It's not all that unusual for the unofficial numbers to move a bit following election day, as absentee and provisional ballots are counted and added in to the totals, and as precinct numbers are double-checked for accuracy in the post-election canvass. It is, however, unusual, for vote totals to get a great deal smaller rather than larger in the days following the election. And that's what seems to have happened in Monroe County --- radically so.
Somehow, more than a thousand votes disappeared entirely, as the election results in the Dem and GOP Senate primaries have almost entirely changed.

the whole point is our country was built on checks and balances....if the public can not verify that election results are accurate it is not a democracy at all

Same here! Often proprietary code, none allowed to look. It's ridiculous! Way too much

Paper ballots. Hire a few more people to count them, democracy demands a just accounting.

No computers. Pen and paper. Scan with human eyes, record and store with human hands.

No volunteer counters. Professionals trained by a non-partisan, non-political election commission.
