RUSH: Appreciate that.<\/p>\nRUSH: To Round Lake, Illinois. This is Claudia. Thank you for calling, and welcome to the program. Hi!<\/p>\n
CALLER: Hi! Thank you for answering and talking with me.<\/p>\n
RUSH: You bet!<\/p>\n
CALLER: I\u2019ve been hearing you and listening to you since \u201992.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Appreciate that.<\/p>\n
CALLER: You\u2019re wonderful. I really enjoy listening to you and getting a lot of information, politically especially. Anyway, my question is —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Yes?<\/p>\n
CALLER: — Mr. Snerdley said to get to it right away if I could. My question is, has three little questions, one being what is a provisional ballot? Could you explain that?<\/p>\n
RUSH: Yeah.<\/p>\n
CALLER: And the other two are what are undervotes and what are overvotes.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Yes, yes, yes. Those are excellent questions.<\/p>\n
CALLER: I don\u2019t know what it means.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, you\u2019re hearing a lot of talk about it, but you don\u2019t know what it means. Journalism, like I said yesterday, they report on these fires, like the Woolsey fire, they never tell you how the fire\u2019s named. Why is it called the Woolsey fire? Had to look it up.<\/p>\n
A provisional ballot is a ballot cast by somebody who may not be eligible to vote. They show up at the polling place or they submit an absentee or an early vote but there may be some question about their registration, may not be registered, but they think they are, they say they are. So you give people that can\u2019t prove they\u2019re registered to vote a provision vote. They are not supposed to even be counted unless races are very close.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I mean, they are counted at the end of the proceedings, but they\u2019re not given any weight. This is why Democrats focus on them. They want the provisional ballots to count because they have a bunch of people out there casting them.<\/p>\n
An overvote. The simplest way to explain an overvote is somebody that\u2019s voted for both candidates in a race. So an overvote would be where somebody voted for both Rick Scott and Bill Nelson. An undervote is a ballot that has votes cast for some races, but not all. So you have somebody casting votes in the governor\u2019s race but they didn\u2019t cast a vote in the Senate race. That\u2019s considered an undervote or an underballot. And in both cases, in recounts, this is why they want to get to hand recounts, manual instead of machine, why the Democrats do, because it\u2019s in these three instances where games can be played.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
In the case of an undervote where nobody voted, let\u2019s say somebody voted for Gillum in Florida, Democrat for governor, but there\u2019s no vote for the Senate. Well, clearly they intended to vote Nelson; so give Nelson a vote even though there isn\u2019t one there. That will be the attempt. Overvote, same thing, if they vote for DeSantis, Republican governor and vote for both Scott and Nelson, they\u2019ll say, well, they didn\u2019t intend to vote for Nelson because he voted for DeSantis. Try to take that away. That\u2019s the easiest way to explain those things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
