a 50/50 split is evidence of manufactured electorals

Vote Recount Flips Massachusetts Midterm Race From Republican To
Democrat By 1 Vote

A recount of votes in a Massachusetts state House of Representatives
race has placed a Democratic challenger ahead of a Republican
incumbent by a single vote after the latter was initially leading
following the Nov. 8 elections.

Democrat Kristin Kassner, a first-time candidate, is now leading her
Republican opponent Lenny Mirra in the race for the newly redrawn
North Shore district, a coastal region between Boston and New
Hampshire.

Prior to the recount, Mirra, a five-term Republican, had led Kassner
by 10 votes out of the 24,155 votes that were cast across the
district, according to the original certified results from Election
Day.

However, the 10-vote margin is within the legal threshold that allows
for a recount, and Kassner later submitted a petition asking for a
district-wide recount of the Nov. 8 election.

Secretary of State Bill Galvin agreed to the hand recount, which was
ordered on Nov. 30, as well as another in the First Middlesex District
race.

After officials recounted the votes on Dec. 8, the results flipped to
put Kassner up 11,763 votes to Mirra’s 11,762.

Kassner picked up a total of 19 additional votes, including 10 in
Ipswich, four in Rowley, three in Topsfield, one vote in Newbury, and
one vote in Georgetown, according to data provided by Galvin’s office
(pdf). Mirra, meanwhile, added five votes in Ipswich, three in
Topsfield, and one in Newbury.

The Republican candidate also lost a single vote in Rowley, according
to the data.
Mirra to Challenge Recount Results

Mirra told The Boston Globe that he plans to challenge the results.

“Some [ballots] were filled out in pencil, some were filled out with
different colored ink, some had stray marks. Some had a name written
in the write-in and then an oval filled out,” Mirra said.

Kassner, however, told The Boston Globe that she believes the voting
process “unfolded like it should,” adding that while the results show
she’s leading in the race, a tight margin means it’s “hard to allow
yourself to be too excited until the plane is landed.”

The Democrat also told CBS that she doesn’t believe anything
suspicious took place with regard to the recount.

“[The recount] was just really just to ensure that, between humans and
machines, we really caught every vote that was counted,” Kassner said.
“We thank the tremendous outpouring of people that really got involved
and mobilized to go through this process this weekend. It’s really a
true test of democracy.”
