Stealing Detroit’s Mayoral Election Anita E. Belle, J.D. November 6, 2013 reparationslaborunion I am one of the election challengers from the Michigan Democratic Party that was escorted out, by police, from the Cobo Hall site for counting absentee ballots for yesterday’s election in Detroit. I am also the one that requested, in accordance with Michigan Election Law, MCL 168.733, to see the poll book and the ballot stubs and found that the number of ballots returned and the number of ballot stubs did not match the number of votes recorded on the voting machines. The voting machines’ ballot numbers were higher than the poll book’s number of ballots returned or the number of ballot stubs was, so I suspect that I was thrown out of Cobo for being “disruptive” in order to cover up my further discovery of election fraud. MCL 168.734 punishes the election officials who threw us out/prevented our presence with a $1000 fine and up to two years’ of prison. Sadly, the only election official to give us a name was George Haygood, but he was not the only culpable person. The others refused to identify themselves. I have been asked to post the evidence on Facebook as a form of self-protection. I dont know how to do that, so However, because I know that original documents are the best evidence, and the recordkeeper of that document is needed to testify to its authenticity, then I am also requesting protection from the NAACP and the federal monitors. Here’s the evidence: I arrived at Cobo around 1 p.m. I presented my credentials from the Michigan Democratic Party and signed an oath. Attached as Exhibit A are copies of my credentials and the oath. Around 3 p.m., I went first to the voting machine for Absentee Ballot Board 80. Tom Barrow was already there questioning why one of the supervisors was reinserting the ballots back into the machine. The supervisor said that the machine had jammed, but there were 201 ballots. Barrow left, but I stayed. While the supervisor was reinserting the ballots into the machine, he did so with the ballot facing up so I could see the ballot. All supervisors were then called to the stage, so an employee took over reinserting the ballots. When the employee took over, he started turning the ballots face down so I couldn’t see the ballot. I asked him to turn the ballot so I could see it, just in case I needed to challenge the ballot. The employee said that the machine would count the ballot whether it was face up or face down. I explained that state law permitted me to be able to see the ballot so I could challenge it, but the employee claimed the ballots were private put a cover down to make it so that I couldn’t get a good look at the ballots. Please see Exhibit B for my notes regarding the voting machines I inspected starting at 3 p.m. After going around to half of the 125 voting machines, I went to the ladies’ room. While in a stall, I overheard a conversation between two women washing their hands. The first lady asked, “How’s Mike Duggan doing?” A second lady answered, “He’s doing fine.” I wondered how the second lady knew voting results. The time was 4-5 p.m. While talking with other challengers in a segregated area, clerks in three golf carts came to complain that our cell phones were disruptive. Mind you, this is Cobo Hall’s Macomb Room. It’s huge! The challengers were relatively far away from the election clerks. Tom Barrow pointed out that Michigan’s statutes did not prohibit us from using cell phones and that we were a far enough distance from the employees to not be disruptive, but he offered that we’d make phone calls near the police officer. I believe that the employees were complaining about cell phone use because they were afraid we were reporting our findings to lawyers on standby for election challengers. I noticed the same employee who prevented me from seeing the ballots on Absentee Ballot Board 80 inching within earshot of the challengers and our allegedly “disruptive” cell phone conversations, acting suspiciously. I was not disruptive because my cell phone could not get reception in the Macomb Room. The grits hit the fan when I started to check the other half of the voting machines. Tom Barrow suggested I spot check the poll books as well. In the meantime, he and some other challengers requested to go to another floor where absentee ballots were being compared to voters’ signatures. The challengers were denied access to the other room. Beginning at 5:30 p.m., I wrote down the number of ballots recorded for Absentee Ballot Board machines 1-9. At Board 9, the machine said 348 ballots were counted. I asked the supervisor to show me the poll book. The last page of the poll book said that 330 ballots were returned. The supervisor let me count how many checks were recorded near voters’ names. He was cooperative but did ask why Machine 9 was singled out. I replied that it was random. I calculated 347 checks. The numbers did not agree, so I showed my findings to Tom Barrow. He was alarmed! He wanted us challengers to check the number of ballots recorded by each machine and compare it against the number of ballots recorded in the poll book and the number of ballot stubs. He stationed me at Absentee Ballot Board 8 because that machine was off. I didn’t know Machine 8 was off, but I had just written down its number, 366 ballots, at 5:30 p.m. By 6:10 p.m., the “off” machine had 371 ballots. The clerk’s employees told me that there were 352 ballot stubs. Again, the number of ballots on the machine did not agree with the other checks and balances! I was in the process of asking to see the poll book when supervisors descended upon us, claiming we were being “disruptive”. Tom Barrow showed them the Michigan statutes, explaining that the law permitted us to see the requested documents and that the clerks were impeding us, explaining the discrepancies. I was only able to get the name of one supervisor, George Haygood, before other supervisors started refusing to even give us their names. The police escorted us out. Please see Exhibit C for my notes regarding the voting machines I inspected after 5:30 p.m. Once outside of Macomb, we certainly did start using our cell phones! However, the one telephone number I didn’t have was Sheriff Benny Napoleon’s. I would have told him not to concede. He was robbed, and I know how. I suspect if the absentee ballot boxes were stuffed at Cobo, the same could have been done at the precincts. Benny was “Al Gored”. I hope this election is not certified and that election fraud is thoroughly investigated for both the primary and general elections. If the general election is certified, I hope Benny demands a recount. The primary and general election results were so corrupted, I believe the only solution is to declare the office of mayor vacant and hold a special general election. That will be expensive, an expensive the taxpayers of a bankrupt city can’t afford, so I also hope that all those who conspired to rig elections and steal Detroiters’ right to vote go to the Sheriff’s jail. Furthermore, the declaration of vacancy must come from the Governor Rick Snyder, and here’s part of the conspiracy! His co-conspirators include Janice Winfrey, Mike Duggan, and possibly even Jeb Bush. What if their future turnaround plans included Rick Snyder being Jeb Bush’s vice presidential running mate in a 2016 presidential bid? Then Duggan could be Michigan’s governor and Janice Winfrey could be secretary of state, but Michigan’s politics would remain corrupt as usual. Postscript: African-Americans make up 83% of Detroit’s population. As President of the Reparations Labor Union, I shared with Benny Napoleon a plan for making reparations for the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade a reality. The plan involved working with Congressman John Conyers to amend his H.R. 40 legislation to make reparations voluntary through a tax-free national lottery. The lottery would be administered through a public-private partnership with the City of Detroit so the City could use some of its administrative revenues to fund pensions and retiree health care. This would have been Detroit’s “federal bailout” for Detroit’s bankruptcy without the bailout or reparations costing taxpayers a dime. Many never believed they’d live to see a black U.S. President. Would African-Americans have finally received their long-awaited reparations if Benny Napoleon was elected Detroit’s mayor? Will Mike Duggan implement the reparations plan? Doubtful, first because distributing reparations to fund Detroit’s pensions competes with Duggan’s plans to fund those pensions by selling Detroit’s assets and granting contracts to the rich supports who financed Duggan’s mayoral campaign. Secondly, reparations from Duggan is doubtful because the president of the Reparations Labor Union is the same one in custody of the evidence of Janice Winfrey committing election fraud in favor of Mike Duggan. Consequently, by Duggan stealing Detroit’s mayoral election from Benny Napoleon, blacks’ reparations were stolen in the process. Detroiters, demand a do-over special election. Let’s pray we get it right the second time around. Anita E. Belle, J.D., Member, Michigan Democratic Party
