    Those three ballots represent 0.003% of the total ballots cast in the county in the last presidential election year.

    Or put another way: 25% of the known fraudulent ballots got through.

    I hope they catch the perpetrator(s) and inflict maximum justice.

      With less than 100k voters in the county, there is a non-zero chance that the margin will be within 3 votes, and now this scheme has given both sides a legitimate excuse to hold up certification if the margin is close. Even if it’s not within 3 votes, we know there is shady shit going on.

      Now, it does look like this county is heavily Republican. But the State will probably go to Harris, so any delays might endanger the casting of CO’s 10 Electoral Votes .

        Technically there’s a non-zero chance of the margin being within three votes for any population of voters.
