IT BEGINS: Ohio County "Discovers" 588 Ballots. Suddenly Danny O'Connor Wins An Extra 190 Votes.
[link to thehill.com]

Ohio election officials on Wednesday found 588 previously uncounted votes in its hotly contested special election for the state's 12th Congressional District.

Officials found the votes in a Columbus suburb, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer, netting Democratic candidate Danny O'Connor 190 more votes and narrowing his race against Republican Troy Balderson to 1,564 votes.

"The votes from a portion of one voting location had not been processed into the tabulation system," the Franklin County Board of Elections said in a news release obtained by the paper.

Balderson, who was backed by President Trump and Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R) during his campaign, claimed a narrow victory on Tuesday night for the district which Trump won and which has been held by a Republican since 1983.

O'Connor has said he has no plans to concede the race until all votes have been counted. According to the Enquirer, 3,435 provisional ballots and 5,048 absentee ballots still have yet to be counted, but have a deadline of Aug. 24.

I don’t even get this special election, these morons have to run again for office in 3 months. Why didn’t they wait 3 months and just run it normally or why didn’t this dude wait 3 months to retire?

All this work for this election and in November that seat is back up

Just amazing that they only found missing votes for the Democrat.

Odd how that always works!



We just netted 190 VOTES from Franklin County!

We're confident DANNY WILL WIN once ALL the votes are counted, but we spent EVERYTHING we had on the Special Election.

So if O'Connor got an extra 190 vote out of the 588, who were the rest of the votes for did they just throw the ones that weren't O'Connor away ? Coz yeah in theory that should mean that O'Connor is even further behind now.

The Dems are fully aware that in most state elections across the country they have no chance of winning. As someone mentioned above, this first election serves as a gauge to how much rigging will be needed for the official elections in 3 months.

 Quoting: Deplorable Guitarist

It says "netting". Here's my math based on what I think they mean:

D = 389 votes
R = 199 votes
Total = 588

Difference between D and R:
389 - 199 = 190 net positive for the D.

ETA: My math here assumes no votes to Green party, of course. I'm just trying to explain what they mean by "net".

They both keep all those votes; they are not thrown away. The article is just trying to say that the "gap" has closed by a net of 190.

They don’t seem to be adding to the other side.....

Danny O'Connor 190 more votes and narrowing his race against Republican Troy Balderson to 1,564 votes.



State election officials will issue an automatic recount if the race's final results show a margin of 0.5 percent or less.
