A hand recount of the election results in a Democratic primary for a Georgia county has seen the “winner” of the race drop to third place after it emerged that the voting machines were “off by thousands of ballots.”
The audit has raised fresh concerns about election integrity after it emerged that the vote count was severely inaccurate.
On Thursday, DeKalb County School Board member Marshall Orson, who is running for the county commission, asked the local election board not to certify results as scheduled because of “numerous errors” with the local race, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution noted.
Instead, Orson requested an “independent review” as well as a formal recount of the election in a letter to the board.
“There is no rational basis for believing that there are not continuing issues with the results and the results should not be certified with the continuing existence of multiple substantive issues and concerns,” Orson wrote.
“Doing so would pose a substantial risk not only to the confidence the public will have in the overall election results from this race but could extend to the entire primary as well as the general election.”
The initial Democratic primary results showed Orson winning for commission District 2 with Lauren Alexander in second place and Michelle Long Spears in third, according to Just the News.
This would have put Orson against Alexander in a runoff election.
However, Spears noticed that the results showed she received zero votes at most election precincts.
The secretary of state’s office admitted late last month to making several programing mistakes in the ballot equipment that affected the final tally.

You don’t say!
Most people never hear about this stuff. And if one tries to tell them then they don’t believe it, and they don’t want to hear it.
The “mistakes” never go the other way
I thought our elections were the safest and most secure in the history of the world.
Libtard vote fixing 2022 🤪

Dump the machines completely. Or have one open source software program used nationally that does nothing but count. Counting is one of the simplest and most basic of all computer software functions.
Rafdensberger and Kemp swear that dominion machines are the safest.
Nothing to see here Democrats, move along.
Liberal response: “We are going to lose our democracy if we keep doing these recounts.”
“Programing mistakes” my ass!!
It has been certified, but obvious questions need to be investigated! Excellent article here, https://decaturish.com/2022/06/dekalb-elections-director-says-ballots-have-been-accurately-tabulated-board-certifies-results/
But trust the 2020 presidential election results, because it was the most secure, ever, in history!
Joe and The Ho got 81,000,000 votes!
The most, ever!/sarc
I will have NO faith in any election result until lots of people go to jail, including some who are currently in office.
Thats why they arent worried about losing the house
The fix is already in
2020 worked
No negative consequences

Uniparty is gonna uniparty again
