Subject: [council] TRAINING ON HOW TO COUNT BALLOTS BY HAND ON SATURDAY, 7/21
Hello All -
We received an email about the need for volunteers to go to offices of County Clerks in all the counties of Wisconsin - to help hand count ballots and verify the machine counts from the recent recall election.
There will be a training session for how to count ballots at the Alisha Ashman library on the West Side at 10:00 am Saturday, July 21st.
WHY IS THIS BEING DONE?
Excerpt from Wisconsin Wave: "Exit polls reported by major news outlets at 8pm put the race at a 50-50 dead heat. However less than an hour later, with only 25% of precincts reporting, those same outlets called the race for Walker. This early prediction was later matched by the official count which settled at 53% for Walker and 46% for Barrett."
"But was that how Wisconsinites really voted? As recent history such as Ohio in 2004 shows, huge disparities between exit polls and official totals can point to systemic fraud in the tamper-prone machines that count our ballots."
"These concerns were amplified when citizen-observers monitoring the Racine Senate recount decided to also double check the gubernatorial race. The results were extremely disturbing- in the Racine wards which were fully hand counted, statistically significant differences were found between the hand counted totals and the GAB reported totals. Even more troubling, in EVERY case these disparities benefited Walker over Barrett, drastically decreasing the likelihood they could've been caused by random error."
For more information, you can go to Wisconsin Wave.org/Hand-Count Votes Now. On that web page, you can sign up to help count ballots and also donate money to help pay the cost of those Counties who will not allow ballot counting without payments.
You can also write to [log in to unmask] or call Jeff K at 608-770-5656.
Thank you,
