If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

If you only had a brain.

The draft report (assuming it's legit, because I wouldn't trust WaPo to tell me the weather) states that (quoted VERBATIM):
- None of the various systems related to elections had numbers that would balance and agree with each other. In some cases, these differences were significant.

I haven't read the report yet. What percentage are you calling significant? For example, I note from the summary that Biden's margin changed by +360 votes. However, that's a difference of less than 0.01% of the Maricopa County population.

In most elections, there is always an error rate of at least this percent - often higher. I've been aware of this ever since it was highlighted in the 2000 election.

::) ::) ::)

That number being used is the actual total ballot count and is the same as any typical 'recount' would give...I would expect a fucking hard science PhD and a fucking lawyer to actually be able to parse words and numbers better than that...but that doesn't fit the narrative does it.  ;)

It is the other numbers I am interested in...how many ballots seemed to be multiple voting by the same person, how many of the 'adjudicated' ballots actually have an original, etc...

Makes you wonder why they fought so hard to prevent an 'audit' and why they are still trying to stop other states...wouldn't you want Orange Man Bad followers to 'waste' their money?

From the "draft" report that was leaked:

What was the margin of victory in Arizona again?

See how I linked to my source?

See how you didn't?

Yeah.

Seriously, you guys cannot rant about the reliability of mainstream media and then link to "rando anonymous dude on the Internet posted this graphic they made to Reddit!"

Here is a link to Maricopa County's Twitter thread, shredding each one of Cyber Ninja's "findings" into confetti.

You'd think Tubesnake would be less eager to claim Joe Biden is our president, considering the complete disarray we seem to be in almost ten months in.

But then, TDS is a hell of a drug.

Claiming Joe Biden is president is TRUE. Claiming Joe Biden is a good president is FALSE. Claiming one does not mean one claims the other.

You linked to a story on Axios, and you claim "reliability" is your concern?  Where is your link to the leaked report, or are you just taking their word for what is in it?  You have no idea whether the page I linked is from the report... anymore than you have any idea if what Axios is reporting is true.  The fact that you can't see this just shows you are a complete buffoon.

Bro you're clinging to a false narrative like a drowning man clings to a life preserver. But, sure, I'm the deranged one.

Yes, UNQUESTIONABLY a link to Axios is superior to anonymous dude on the Internet. I don't even imagine how you could argue different. At least you can check Axios for credibility, look up the author, look up their sources, email them to check something, see other responses to their article, etc... You cannot do any of that with anonymous rando on the Internet. So yeah, ANY source is better than no source.

Also it's not a "leaked" report. The fucking report is out dude. How are you behind? Go read it. The report is out. Today. This was the official report release date, which is why all the articles came out about the report today.

Here's what I see. The news report linked below contains the leaked copy of the draft report. The final report is supposed to be released today, but I haven't seen a site where it can be downloaded yet.

Quote"What has been found is both encouraging and alarming. On the positive side there were no substantial differences between the hand count of the ballots provided and the official canvass results for the county," the draft states.

Pullen confirmed that the hand recount was "relatively close" to the official tally.

"Was there massive fraud or anything? It doesn't look like it," he added.

However, the draft report raises concerns about the county's elections systems and record-keeping, and accuses Maricopa County officials of stonewalling their effort to perform "a complete audit."

"Had Maricopa County chosen to cooperate with the audit, the majority of these obstacles would have easily been overcome," the report states.
