All 846 of them. My that was convenient. :/


Or... Its expected.

Since every week people die, and some portion of those voted by mail

If you think that number is too high then calculate the expected number due to random chance and compare

The news story you're referring to is obviously a crock.
The odds of 846 people conveniently dying in that short a time frame is astronomical.


/e Whereas the odds that someone messed with the ballots and either bought off or pulled the wool over some reporters eyes, are very low.

Both sides do it, but it's not a widespread problem.

How do you know it is ?

- The ones who are pushing for -less- money [to securize, even generalize] voting are your Republicans politicians.
- The problem is global and is also happening in your regular "voting stations": it's still super small, almost negligible.

The real threat for voting is vote suppresion and sabotage/blatant negligence. Underfunding.

Exemple: If Trump take more than 5% in the ass the ~~0.01% of fraudulent votes (which will be shared by both side btw) will change nothing.

Generally speaking, 8-13,000 people die every month in Michigan.

Quote
Michigan voters can also vote before Election Day through a process called absentee in-person voting. The period for absentee in-person voting runs from Monday, September 21, 2020 to Monday, November 2, 2020, but dates and hours may vary based on where you live.


So early voting for the general election roughly 6 weeks, even if early voting for the primary is only 2 weeks, ~4500 people die in that span. To state that 20% of them are voters is not a stretch in the slightest. Your definition of astronomical is wanting.
