In reply to the discussion: About Those Bullet Ballots [View all]MichMan
(13,235 posts)38. Have you withdrawn $45,000 from your retirement account and contributed towards a recount?
After the first $41,300 goes to the DNC, they will apply the next $3,300 towards any recount. Once they get enough people to contribute, they can start the recount effort.
Direct from the Harris campaign website.
"A portion of donations made to the Harris Victory Fund, a joint fundraising committee authorized by the Harris campaign, the Democratic National Committee and state Democratic parties, will be directed towards a recount effort, according to its fundraising page.
The fundraising page says that the first $41,300/$15,000 from a person/multicandidate committee (PAC) will be allocated to the DNC. The next $3,300/$5,000 from a person/PAC will be allocated to Harris for President's Recount Account."

While I would be fine with a hand count audit, your last sentence is incorrect.

A bullet ballot is when the voter votes in only one election and not the rest of the ballot.

Correct. They went with zero evidence and turned the country and election process on its head.

But it isn't actually that close in any of the states and recounts cost millions of dollars.

How is it being determined how many "bullet ballots" were cast. This still sounds like bullshit.

I know. I had the same problem in 2020 when the trumpers were making unsubstantiated claims.

Agreed. Should be investigated. I remain coninced that no way did trump win every swing state legitimately.

It's not that complicated. The battleground states are where the deciding Electoral College votes are.

It costs millions of dollars for recounts is why. Hand recounts are even more expensive

Because recounts are very expensive and at best only change a few hundred or so votes
