We're on track for 193% voter turnout! Gotta love that enthusiasm! Everyone's just so passionate, and believes in our democratic system so much!
Someone want to play the devil's advocate and give any reason this isn't what it look like?
Possibly the database has all the previous addresses for a voter and this table is pulling data from multiple sources.
So you have a database of "voter ID / voted on" with one record. And a "voter ID / address / date of address" with all their old addresses ("urban" people get evicted and move around a lot).
Then you combine them and get a list of addresses and votes, but the votes are all referring to one vote.
Looks like you're right : from trmp's team.
Cool, what about the other hundred and fifty thousand?
There's two options:
Purge the duplicate data (kind of hinky and not that thorough in fixing problems, can cause other issues and may take too long, doesn't make sense for something like this)
Fix the base query that's used for the procedure/job to find and check confirmed vote (robust, solves the issue across the board especially if it's a query that's repeatedly used for a core process)
If the "glitch" (the proper term is "programming error" or "bug") was resolved through the second option, then it should be resolved for the "other hundred and fifty thousand" goalpost move as well.
Should also note back to fauxgnaws said
Voter ID here is likely a unique value in a column (maybe an incremented insert). You can't have 29 rows in the query pull with the same ID and the same date recorded, only one of those will get counted on any "Distinct" query of the Voter ID column. (e.g. SE\LECT DISTINCT VoterID, RecordedDate)
There's other ways to commit fraud instead of obviously bad UNION ALL statements.
There are a couple of addresses repeated 3 or 4 times though, which is odd if it's a database of addresses. But I guess that could be moving back in to the same place multiple times and they log those separately maybe.
Could be change of address form. It only lasts a year so sometimes people do it for several years.
I doubt anybody would be so brazen as voting dozens of times in their own name. The cheating they just assign each ballot to a different non-voter.
But it's great to be hyper-vigilant even if it makes Trumpers look like conspiracy theorists. The more the cheaters think people are watching the less comfortable they'll be cheating.
soooooooooo... it's a glitch :D
"Nope! Not touching that one" -Devil's legal counsel.
Assuming that screenshot isn't just made up, I can't think of any potential reason for this vote record that doesn't look very bad.
You're a racist for asking.
Not to repeat what fauxgnaws said, as got pretty much the gist of it.
This straight up looks like results from an incorrect SQL query.
That a student that's taken a single semester of databases would understand how to fix and probably not make in the first place.
"wow, I've got 10 rows in 1 table and 10 rows in the other that I'm trying to do a 1:1 join on and somehow I'm getting 100 results that have duplicate values? What could it possibly be?"
We're talking government workers here...
Bad student, we've been over this! No cross joins unless you have a VERY good reason. And there is no good reason here!
racist!
Why isn't the timestamp of the vote recorded not on display in this information?
If all of these votes were logged at the same moment it could be an error in a merged database.
That said the Highland Park City vote brings further questions into what database this is.
Trump sacrificed the RNC GOTV operation in favor of spending the money on 'combating fraud'. If it is going on, and something can be done, it will be done. No need to give up before a single ED vote is cast.
Keep calm and support the Bad Orange Man.
"Quick, fire the idiot that made it this fucking obvious and then try again!"
Are the Republicans going to do anything about it? I doubt it. So this is how DJT will lose
Why would the democrats waste time cheating votes in... Wayne county. Inner-city counties like this were so in the bag for Democrats, the democrats could (and often do) shit directly on the city and they'd still be elected.
