Michigan Secretary of State disputes Republican claim of “software glitches” switching votes from GOP to Democrat

Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson slammed claims by Republicans that “software glitches” in vote tabulation programs switched votes to Democrat candidates. In a statement, dated Nov. 6, Benson defended that elections in the state “were conducted fairly, effectively and transparently” and that they “are an accurate reflection of the will of Michigan voters.”

Benson’s statement came after Mich. GOP chairwoman Laura Cox said a “glitch” in the tabulating software used in Antrim County caused 6,000 votes for Republicans to be counted as Democrat ones, which the county clerk confirmed. Further investigation found that the software created by Dominion Voting Systems was used in 47 other counties. Cox added that the county had to recount all its ballots by hand, and called for other countries to be on the lookout for similar discrepancies.

In her statement, Benson put the blame on the erroneous results on the Antrim County clerk, saying that he “accidentally did not update” the software used to collect voting machine data and report unofficial results. Furthermore, she added that the software “did not cause a misallocation of votes” and the resulting switch stemmed from “user human error.” Any human errors are caught during county canvasses.

A subsequent review and recount in Antrim County revealed that President Donald Trump obtained 56 percent of 17,000 votes in the county, while Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden only obtained 42 percent.

In another Michigan county, a similar glitch almost cost a Republican his re-election bid as county commissioner. Detroit Free Press reported Nov. 6 that Oakland County Commissioner Adam Kochenderfer thought he lost against Democrat Melanie Hartman by a razor-thin margin during the Nov. 3 elections. However, the county’s director of elections called Kochenderfer on Nov. 5 to inform him that Rochester Hills, one of the cities in the county, had “a technical glitch.” Kochenderfer ended up winning by more than a thousand votes against Harman.

Meanwhile, Mich. Democratic Party Chair Lavora Barnes defended the election clerks in the state. She told MLive Nov. 6: “[They] have done an incredible job this, and every election cycle despite little to no support from the Republican-controlled legislature. The bipartisan canvass being conducted now is correcting any human and mechanical errors, demonstrating that the canvass is working as intended.”

Barnes added that her party has joined with local election clerks in calling for “reforms to the election system,” such as decreasing legislative barriers and providing clerks with additional resources to allow them to do their jobs more efficiently and effectively.

The vote switches are the result of Operation Scorecard, a covert operation to transfer votes from Trump to Biden

Dominion Voting Systems said in a statement to news outlets that “there are no credible reports or evidence of any system software errors in Georgia or Michigan, including erroneous reporting of unofficial results from Antrim County.”

The supposed vote switching that happened, and was credited to a software glitch, may not actually an accident but instead be the due to a “Democratic vote fraud superweapon” in action. Retired Air Force Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney claimed that a program called “Scorecard” shaved off Trump’s votes.

Scorecard was a program originally designed for the Central Intelligence Agency before Deep State operatives appropriated it for their own use, McInerney claimed. (Related: “Glitch” in Michigan county gives Biden an extra 6,000 votes – similar anomalies found in 47 other counties.)

He explained that Scorecard can hack into a system and change up to three percent of votes to avoid detection. It hacks the system during the data transfer between voting stations and storage hubs. Despite its covert nature, McInerney said Scorecard can be detected and exhorted the Trump campaign to look for signs of the app being used in swing states.
