The 2022 Midterm Elections were held four days ago in what seems to be the most chaotic election ever conducted, and we still do not even have the results in some states. What happened to Election day, where all ballots were counted on Election night?
The Nation continues to patiently wait and pray for clarity to see if their candidate pulls the win out or if the radical left will somehow find the votes to ‘win.’
On Election day this year, I spent most of my time collecting and aggregating news to document election-day irregularities.
I will cover the anomalies that took place during the Midterm Elections on November 8, 2022.
As the polls opened around the United States, issues with voting machines and tabulators happened almost immediately.
In Lexington County, South Carolina, two voting machines went down at 7:40 am after opening to start Election day.
Bell County, Texas, experienced technical glitches in its voting systems; eight polling locations were affected.
However, Bell County was not the only one experiencing technical glitches that morning.
Mercer County, New Jersey, was off on election day to a horrible start. Their voting machines were reported to have had issues where all voting machines were not working “due to a printing and scanning issue with the ballots.”
Around noon, Mercer County Clerk Paula Sollami Covello said all votes would be correctly counted despite a “glitch with the Dominion scanners.” As of 12:30 p.m., ballots were still being “manually slotted,” Mercer County Superintendent of Elections Nathaniel Walker said. “There are no reports of Mercer County voting machine tabulators in operation.”
You can also add Albany County, New York, and Blount County, Tennessee, to the list of counties with voting system malfunctions early in the morning of Election day.
Randolph County, Alabama, had issues with two of the ES&S machines, which included a ballot jam and a scanner head outage, causing some voters to have to turn in their ballots by hand.
Burleigh County, North Dakota, experienced check-in issues affecting 18 polling locations.
Rockford, Illinois, also had similar check-in issues as well.
Springfield, Massachusetts, had issues with faulty batteries and jammed ballots.
Cross Plains, Wisconsin, had issues with ballot scanners. The affected machine is a DS200 that scans ballots and tabulates results, according to Dane County Clerk Scott McDonell.
Floyd County, Indiana, also had problems with ballot scanners at three of their polling locations.
Reports of machines jamming at polling locations in Westerly, Rhode Island, also occurred.
Suffolk County, Nottoway County, Chesterfield County, and The City of Richmond, Virginia, reported technical issues with newly installed electronic poll books at their polling locations. They were forced to switch to paper poll books temporarily.
In Chesterfield County, Virginia, the electronic poll books were down for a considerable period, and citizens complained about receiving the wrong ballots.
One voter states, “When I went to register under my name, they said I had already voted, and I had not,” he said. “The director suggested that they search my last name county-wide in Chesterfield and what came up was that everyone with my last name had already voted.”
The Director of Elections in Chesterfield, Missy Vera, said this was a software issue, and the problem was resolved.
Detroit, Michigan, had similar problems with its poll books and reporting glitches across the city. Some voters received in-person ballots with numbers that appeared in an electronic poll book to have already been assigned to absentee ballots for different people, according to FOX 2, which reported that affected voters were instructed to complete a provisional ballot to be counted later.
The City of Detroit, Michigan, was collecting thousands of ballots significantly after the legal deadline at 11:30 pm, which was caught on video.
Virginia also said voter machines had issues in Prince George’s County, VA.
In Tusla, Oklahoma, an investigation was launched by The Tulsa County Sheriff's Office and the Tulsa County Election Board after reports of poll workers not handing out ballots to some of the Tulsa voters surfaced on Tuesday.
North Carolina poll workers were locked out without access to the building code. In some counties, elections were delayed because of issue printing Authorization to Vote forms.
In Maricopa County, Arizona, officials say they have identified a solution after about 20% of their polling sites were experiencing issues with tabulation machines in 60 different vote centers, according to Maricopa County. According to Fox News, many tabulators had problems with the ink not showing up on the ballot correctly when printed, affecting roughly 17,000 ballots.
Citizens voiced their concerns about their votes being counted here, stating, "Their voting machines are not working properly... Every single person in there is getting a misread ballot."
Katie Hobbs, Secretary of State in Arizona, is in charge of Elections for the State of Arizona. Katie Hobbs is also running for Governor, which appears to be a massive conflict of interest as she oversees her own election.
The results of the Arizona Elections still have not been reported, and it has been four days since the elections were held.
A meltdown occurred in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. Problems ranged from polls opening late to scanners not working to some voters being turned away when their names didn’t appear on the voter rolls.
The judge of elections for the polling place at Reformed Presbyterian Home on Perrysville Avenue in Allegheny County never showed up.
Democratic Committee Member Jon Hanrahan stated, “She was not able to transfer the book that has all the names, addresses, and signatures to anybody else, the other poll workers. So they weren’t able to open with that book. They weren’t able to open with the voter roll.”
This created chaos in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.
Not all the issues in the 2022 Midterms had to do with the machines. Wyandotte County, Kansas, reported that paper ballots were too large to be scanned and ballots needed to be folded to be scanned.
According to Wyandotte County Election Commissioner Michael Abbott, tabulation machines at the polls could not read some of the folded ballots. “It was an issue with a crease made in the actual ballot because it’s so long.” and “On some of the ballots, wherever they creased them if it’s in the middle of a race or a write-in line, the scanner was rejecting them,” Abbott said. “We told our workers to try to flatten out the ballots, and nine times out of 10, the machine takes them.”
In Lexington County, South Carolina, a man tried to steal a polling device used to sign in voters.
In Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, voters reported some machines ran out of paper, and voters were filling out provisional ballots while a poll worker drove to Wilkes-Barre to get more paper.
Pueblo County, Colorado officials have happened upon one such instance, a poll worker named Richard Patton, who has been charged with a class 5 felony after attempting to interfere with a voting machine.
Reports of a man being electrocuted surfaced from Harris County, Texas; the unidentified man was killed in the incident, which shut down the polling location.
A polling location in New Orleans, Louisiana, was shut down because of a bomb threat.
Another bomb threat was identified in New York City the day before the Elections to discourage voters from voting on Election day.
Champaign County, Illinois, reported Cyber attacks on the network and servers during the Midterms Elections.
Poll Workers in Fulton County, Georgia, removed two poll workers for social media posts for mentioning January 6th.
In Wisconsin, an armed 38-year-old man was arrested; reports he was armed with a knife and threatening staff at a Wisconsin polling location to "stop the voting," according to the authorities.
An untold number of counties across the Nation had open Wi-Fi connections at polling locations, and many counties offered sharpie markers instead of ballpoint pens. This information is widely available on the internet.
Not one, but two deceased candidates won their elections.
Anthony DeLuca, Pennsylvania died on October 9th, 2022 but still won his race.
Barbara Cooper, Tennessee, died on October 25th, 2022 but still won her race.
To top it all off, Microsoft issued a patch the morning of the Elections.
It is illegal to update voting equipment on the same day as an election.
I wonder how many counties decided to update their systems anyway.

Counties across the Nation extended polling times after hours, and ballots still have yet to be counted. Election day has turned into Election week.

This election was anything but ordinary.

The 2022 Midterms were chaotic, disorganized, and flawed in many ways. Where is the accountability? Where is the transparency? What happened to the laws in place? Where is the integrity? Americans want free and fair elections so our voices may be heard.
Elections by the people, for the people.
This past election was anything but that.
Despite the desperate Deep States distractions, Donald Trump’s endorsements exceed “Hall of Fame” caliber numbers. Many haters will claim “The Red Wave didn’t happen,” but completely miss the fact that Donald Trump is currently 219-16 in the General Election with States still not reporting.
That is a whopping 93% success rate for his endorsements.

Great summary of issues. Solution: Paper ballots, one-day voting, and identification. I wonder how much money our government would save???
If all the Republicans wins that are tricking in over past couple of days and those to come were reported on election day it would have changed the narrative. Also, Manny legal challenges to processes may result in forensic audits that could change outcomes. It's clearly a move by media, democrats and anti-Trump Republicans to create narrative that Trump is out of favor. They all fear Trump's revenge. Hope to soften payback with a DeSantis presidency. He will be willing to let many offense go because he was not the target. He may feel Trump's pain but was not himself injured.
