Detroit, Michigan

2020 Presidential Election

Background and Overview

These are some images and download links for some of the strangest voting patterns in the ghost write-in investigation. The contests shown here are on the reverse side of the ballots.

This section is for the Judge of Probate Court Incumbent Position contest. Note that there were 3 positions open and there were three candidates, so all of the candidates were effectively running unopposed. The Judge of the 36th District Court also had 9 positions and 9 candidates. So a voter choosing any of the blank ovals had no practical effect on the outcome of the election.

The variation and strangeness of the voting patterns in this contest is much more reasonable than the Judge of Circuit Court contest. But there are still a significant number of ballots with large numbers of ghost write-ins.
