Retweeted by Kari:

We are contacting every Republican voter by phone and sometimes at the door to clear every ballot that has been held up for signature verification. Lists are from the County Recorders offices. Leave no ballot behind! #leadright

And retweeted from a different account--

ARIZONA — Some votes get kicked back. You need to CHECK YOUR BALLOT STATUS NOW: recorder.maricopa.gov...… And then CURE your ballot— the deadline is Wednesday — making sure your vote gets counted

I wonder how many we're talking about?

I checked our votes and they've been counted... hopefully correctly.

Call me crazy but how does that work?

The senator vote garners 30,000 more votes than the governor race?

And the split between the two offices (same ballot) is 30,000 and 130,000

Please, make it make sense.

I'm taking the above as a theory, albeit quite possible.

In a nutshell, ballots were designed and printed on 20" paper. But the printer used 19" paper, thus condensing the image for printing, and offsetting ballot marks in the process, making it impossible to read by the tabulators.

I find it curious that this is the first drop in Kari's favor.

Kirk, Bannon, Posobiec et. al have been saying that since the beginning.

They've got some data (MTAC?) that they have been working from.

I'm not convinced on their accuracy yet.

I can't make it make sense. I can't even cobble together anything reasonable.

I was actually hoping you would.

Let me add to the oddity: McConnell and the RNC abandoned Masters. Took all funding from him. Trump talked a good game, but didn't pony up any money. Masters couldn't afford TV or radio ads, while Kelly was very well funded and had ads all over.

Much of Masters exposure was thru Kari-- attending events with her, and rallies, and press conferences. Kari gave him a lot of exposure, and really pushed the entire down ticket.

ETA forclarity: With so much of his exposure thru Kari, we can be pretty sure they voted for Kari!

We're told it's not uncommon to only vote the top of the ticket, but I've never heard of voting for US senator but not governor.

NV is just as bad. My state doesn't have the same metrics to use but suffice to say that Whitmer garnered 200k more new votes to the R's 100k but won by 500k votes.

I'm very aware of the shady rhino spending and apathy as well as the FTX stuff.

We are in serious trouble but alas, we'll be deemed election deniers and get our gold stars.

(MTAC?)

MCTEC = Maricopa County Tabulation and Election Center.

I wish I could get my hands on that data!

I haven't even been able to find how many signatures were rejected and need curing.

a reply to: Boadicea

I'll dig.....now that I have the right acronym.

a reply to: JinMI

It looks like we're all screwed.

Maybe I'm too impatient. Maybe Kari is on it. Even if she doesn't win, if she's still willing to use her position to fight, I'll take it. If that's what it takes, then that's what it takes.

We just have to wait for the counting to play itself out, see where we're at, and go from there.

Try this.

Re: www.foxnews.com...

Kari was down by 34,000 votes (rounded) at 3:30pm.

She's now down by 36,000 votes (rounded), 2 hours later. - 89% Counted.

I'm trying and failing miserably! But I was also making dinner and a little distracted. I'll try again later.

In the meantime, check out this guy too. He has breakdowns by districts -- mobile.twitter.com...

Question for anyone who knows...

Mark Kelly has been "declared" the winner of the Senate seat, but Masters refuses to concede until all votes are counted.

I understand the certification process can proceed with or without the concession of the losing candidate.

But if Masters concedes, is that final? Even if continued counting proves he's the winner? Is it just too sad too bad?

I haven't dug into his figures and graphics yet, but looks promising -- information wise at least.

a reply to: Boadicea

No, concessions aren't legally binding or anything.

From Landon Wall that I linked above--

In last night's Maricopa release of 85k ballots, Congressional District 3, a D+52 District, saw a 61% drawdown in votes outstanding- now having extremely few votes left to count. 53% of the ballots outstanding are in Republican leaning Congressional Districts. Only 27% in DEM.

And --

Looking more granularly, 71% of remaining ballots are in Republican leaning Legislative Districts.

I'm not confident the numbers are there to win, but apparently Kari thinks so.

Pop goes the Weasel ... all back to the election services company 🤡🐸

The sample ballot pdfs published by Maricopa County and the Runbeck-printed ballots used for mail-in voting were correctly made to 20” length in the 2022 General. So there have been no problems processing Democrat-leaning, mail-in ballots.

However, the ballot-on-demand printers used for in-person voting only have 19″ trays that contain 19” ballot paper.

This means, that for in-person voting, the official ballot image had to be compressed to fit on smaller paper than it was built for.

Compression causes the ink to be a little lighter than it should be and thus affects how the tabulators read the ballot.
