Look what happened here.
In Oakland County, Mich., a Republican city clerk wrongly gave victory to a Democrat. But a Democratic county clerk's staff saw the error, so GOP won.

In Oakland County’s 15th County Commission District — representing Rochester and Rochester Hills — the initial count gave a 104-vote margin to the Democrat, Melanie Hartman, amounting to a razor-thin majority of 50.08%.
That stunned the incumbent, Adam Kochenderfer, giving him a sure sense that he’d lost in a district long deemed a Republican stronghold.
“I thought that was that,” Kochenderfer said. “Those were the results, and I said I would not seek a recount.”
But what a difference a day makes — in weather, love, and the 15th District election for Oakland County commissioner. On Thursday, Kochenderfer was stunned again, this time by a call from Oakland County’s director of elections, flipping the outcome to him.
