Racine County WI. 2016 Voting Errors

Just to be fair Racine County has since changed the the Optech Eagle voting system to Dominion voting system …..OK Racine County Feel Better?

Then during the recount, observers noticed that the voting machines were not counting some valid votes. In one small ward, for example, observers could see that 15 votes (4.5%) were missed by the machine in one small batch of 331 ballots! When the observers asked for an accuracy check, county officials refused to hand count even one small precinct. (See video clip for their rude response during the recount.
In other counties that used the same type of voting machine (the Optech Eagle) and that did check accuracy, miscounts were discovered similar to the ones we suspect in Racine County. We also found out that state and local officials knew that these machines would be unable to count votes from many absentee and mailed-in votes, if they were marked with noncarbonized ink.

And yet Racine County officials approved the computer-tabulated vote totals--twice--without checking!
Because of the miscounts discovered elsewhere, the Wisconsin Elections Commission decided in September 2017 to decertify the Optech Eagle for use in Wisconsin. Racine County has ordered new machines. But county officials have announced no plans to improve the review procedures.

No one can ever guarantee that any voting machine, even new ones, will not miscount our votes. Every computer needs to be checked for accuracy. With this handcount, we intend to demonstrate how easy it would have been to notice and correct these miscounts, if election clerks had practiced some simple auditing procedures before they certified the vote totals. A simple calculation of the undervote rate would have alerted them to problem of the many missed votes. More information at https://www.gofundme.com/f/RacineElectionIntegrity
