Title: Petition for Recount - Hawai'i County
Post by: Q on August 19, 2024, 10:52:29 PM
Ikaika Kailiawa-Smith, aka Ahiu Ranch on Instagram, is petitioning for a recount after some shady dealings with votes that came in for his and other counties across Hawai'i

If you're down with helping one of the good ones actually wanting to make a positive difference, sign the petition below.

Should recount Oahu votes as well.
Even longtime dems cannot be so stupid as to wish to continue this waste and corruption of current admin.

In my opinion I believe they are.  Or choose selfishly to look the other way.

When they went to all-out mail-in voting and circumvented the laws to make it so, the integrity of elections here and nationwide will always be suspect.

I don't believe they are stupid; they just know there are no checks and balances that the people can utilize to keep and hold them accountable.

They are.  Majority of my family vote for the same politicians.

Remember when you had a receipt on your ballot with matching #'s ?
Fill out ballot, tear off receipt.
Gee, I wonder why that went away ? :wacko:

I think the receipt was mainly for employees to show they actually voted when given time off work to do so.

In the rare event a ballot was ruined or lost, the election officials could find whose ballots were ruined or missing using the poll logs, and the voter/s could be allowed to resubmit it.  That's only if the ballot was unable to be read or completely missing.  Normally they just create a duplicate ballot with the same selections and tally that one instead.

Nowadays you can access your ballot status online, so no need for receipts.

Thanks for those who supported Ikaika.

For those who don't follow him on social media, they basically refused to initiate a recount.
