JAKARTA - Wednesday morning, November 4, the number of votes for the Democratic presidential candidate, Joe Biden, experienced a jump of more than 138,000. This is due to a number input error. Had caused extraordinary fanfare.
"So when everyone fell asleep and after everyone went home, the Democrats in Michigan miraculously got 138,339 votes. And all 138,339 of those 'votes' miraculously fell into Biden's hands. It doesn't look suspicious at all," wrote one Twitter user.
The chirp became a source of commotion. This has now been clarified. The problem has been addressed.
The AFP news agency confirmed the counting authority in Michigan. In an article written by ABSCBN News, Caroline Wilson, the stake clerk for Shiawasse, Michigan says: I added an extra zero by mistake.
Caroline should have written 15,371. But he made a typo, adding zeros to the back of the ballot report for Biden to 153,710.
However, Caroline explains, "once it was found, it was fixed, maybe in 20 minutes, so I was amazed how fast it spread."
When that figure was lowered back to corrections, 138,339 votes were removed from the Democratic total tally with no change to Trump's number.
The tweet, which has become a source of fanfare, has now been marked as an "online scam" by analysts and many media outlets that are keeping an eye on elections in the US.
