@BOENYC The NYC Board of Elections counted 135,000 test ballots together with real ballots and released “results” without anyone at BOE noticing.

Trump lost the WH by 43,000 votes spread in 3 states and he is corroding democracy if he has concerns about the integrity of those numbers.

@BOENYC You are run off of social media platforms if you raise doubts bout 2020 with margins much smaller than the 135,000 “oops” by the NYC BOE that no one there noticed until after counting and releasing it.

The Rank Choice Vote count that the BOE released was the TENTH count. They kept on redoing the count until all but two candidates remained all while not noticing that 135,000 votes being counted are “tests.” Those numbers were released without anyone at BOE noticing it.

The count released by the BOE was the TENTH count! They kept on redoing it with the test ballots while not noticing the mistake and they released the numbers as preliminary legit! The BOE noticed the issue only after an outcry. What if the outcry were muzzled as done to Trump?

Key point here folks: A public outcry caused the BOE to take a step back and notice their repeated mistake of going 10 rounds in the RCV with 135,000 fake ballots which they released too.

What IF 2020 issues in some places were not noticed due to lack of a public outcry? 🤔

The NYC frontrunner needed to call out the BOE for these clown to notice 135,000 test ballots.

135,000 ballots among less than 1 million real ones.

But if you doubt 10,000 vote margins in states where millions voted, you are a democracy-undermining, conspiracy theorist.

I want to understand the process of how 135,000 test ballots are counted without anyone at BOE noticing and how it will now be removed But alas. Asking this would be me sowing doubt in our democracy and I don’t to do that so ill let it slide in name of country.

Summary: NYC BOE messed up; kept using the mess in 10 RCV counts; released it as preliminarily legit; a candidate raised doubts; candidate was maligned as doing a wrong; BOE looked at it and noticed a HUGE issue. Hence, raising doubts - a thing Trump did - can save democracy!

@imillhiser @DonaldJTrumpJr @SallyGold @derekahunter Libs lament that the NYC mess up can be used as a “talking point” by election integrity advocates.

It’s not a talking point. It’s a fact: A BOE kept using 135,000 test ballots and noticed it only after an outcry. Meaning1) BOEs make huge mistakes and 2) outcries can correct it.

@imillhiser @DonaldJTrumpJr @SallyGold @derekahunter 🚨 NYC BOE released new results after removing what they said yesterday were 135,000 test ballots but... Adams and Garcia are both down around 10,000 each and, get this. the percent margin is exactly the same as yesterday.

How did the percentage not change even by a decimal?
