JAKARTA - Interesting narratives have emerged throughout the United States (US). That said, the US Presidential Election is scarier than Halloween. The issue of letters and vote counts is the cause.
Reported by Euronews, Monday, November 2, US citizens are worried about the scheme of sending votes by mail in the presidential election. The scheme will have implications for a delay of days in counting votes.
Americans will have to wait longer to find out who their president is for the next four years. The scheme was initially based on the COVID-19 pandemic, in which many Americans avoided direct voting.
However, recently it was realized that this scheme was prone to fraud. The incumbent, Donald Trump, was among those who expressed concern.
The inconsistency of authority has been highlighted by Trump's camp. First, it is unclear where the ballot papers will be counted.
The second is the dynamic that occurred in Michigan and Wisconsin. Initially a US court ruled the deadline for counting votes was election day, November 3.
But the court changed the ruling, stating that the counting of votes could go on for days.
One election office in Wisconsin is observed to be working hard to disseminate the changes that are taking place. They said this made the difficulty manifold. Even so, they still expect an increase in the turnout of up to 200 percent from the 2016 presidential election.
"It makes it a little more difficult for us. I understand why both parties, trying, they are trying to gain an advantage, and I understand that," said Casey Griffiths, a clerk at the Wind Point Village electoral office.
The electoral office in Port Huron, Michigan, Jim Lyden said the same thing. But he is optimistic that the counting in his place will work out well because they have a high-speed ballot scanner.
"The city where I live has purchased a high-speed scanner and we hope to get through it that day," he said.
Trump, on an occasion said the uncertain conditions would open up big opportunities for fraud. Trump still insists on the final vote count by election day. A statement that was immediately greeted by his supporters.
"I don't think all of that should count after election day. I don't think the ballot should even be a problem. I think it will screw up the numbers," said Trump supporter Andrea Kivenas.
In 2016, Wisconsin and Michigan became Trump's winning zone. And he admits openly that that potential can be stolen dirtyly through this bewildering scheme.
