They Just Keep 'Finding' Ballots to Count in Georgia, and It Doesn't Make Any Sense
Red State ^ | 11/05/2020

Posted on 11/05/2020 10:58:48 AM PST by SeekAndFind

As I’ve noted before, I’m generally one of those people who view election night results I’m unhappy with from an “okay, so and so won, I’m gonna grumble about it for a bit and then get to work countering their agenda” perspective. My first thought is usually not to allege the election was not “STOLEN!” It’s “what can our party do better so that we can get the results we want next time around?”

But when things look fishy and smell stinky, they definitely deserve a calling out, and some of the things going on in the state of Georgia right now deserve a lot more sunlight than they’re getting from the national media.

My RedState colleague Brandon Morse reported earlier about how Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger announced today that some counties in the state somehow forgot to click the “upload” button when submitting updated vote totals for their respective areas. Not surprisingly, the counties were blue counties.

What should also be sounding off alarm bells for all Georgia voters as well as the Republican party and the Trump campaign is that the number of votes “left to count” in Georgia conveniently keeps rising. Normally when votes are counted, the numbers left to count should be decreasing. Instead, they are going up in Georgia.

Check out what WSB-TV tweeted this morning:

NEW: Georgia Secretary of State just said LIVE on Channel 2 that there are now under 25,000 ballots left to be counted and should be done by noon today.

As of 6:20 a.m.,18,540 votes separate Trump and Biden according to SOS website: https://t.co/ol9E9A8XEh pic.twitter.com/jWwEB39wjG

— WSB-TV (@wsbtv) November 5, 2020

But then:

UPDATE: The Secretary of State's Office says there are actually 50,000-60,000 uncounted ballots remaining as of 8:30 a.m., more than initially thought early this morning: https://t.co/27Al5xzlvc

— WSB-TV (@wsbtv) November 5, 2020

And later:

Latest update from @GaSecofState is 61,000 outstanding ballots. Here’s a breakdown by county pic.twitter.com/0kEDIr6c9V

— Justin Gray (@JustinGrayWSB) November 5, 2020

I’m sorry, but this just doesn’t make sense. Why are the numbers rising when they should be decreasing? I’m with this guy:

Am I the only one who finds it somewhat odd that the number of votes remaining to count has been steadily rising all morning? Does the Sec of State need a math lesson, are the county offices incompetent or is something strange going on? Help me here. Please.

— Lance Anderson (@Darkhawque) November 5, 2020

On top of that there are the provisional ballots and military ballots that need to be counted, the numbers of which we don’t have:

Important to note that Georgia’s outstanding vote totals do not include provisional ballots or military ballots – it’s unclear how many of those there are. Those need to be in/resolved by Friday and ballots needing “cured” also have Friday deadline.

— Justin Gray (@JustinGrayWSB) November 5, 2020

Georgia’s got a big transparency issue going on right now on a number of fronts, and Raffensperger is coming off as a front guy for what at the very least looks like gross incompetence on the part of the election officials at the county level in Georgia.

As is the case with what the state board of elections is doing here in NC with outstanding absentee ballots that are not yet accounted for, the “forgetting” to upload vote totals and the “finding” of extra votes to count that just so happen to be in blue areas of Georgia inspires zero confidence in the process and only causes more people to question whether or not the election result numbers are genuine or have been massaged in some way to help put Joe Biden over the top.

The margin between Trump and Biden in the state right now is razor-thin, and the next state “called” for Biden could put him near or over 270. Trump should be having lawyers blanketing the state like a blizzard in the wintertime. This stinks to high heaven.

They usually stop finding ballots the second that their candidate wins.

Counterfeit votes have been printed in record numbers across the country and every single one of them needs to be reviewed.

Dino Rossi tried to fight it but eventually gave in.

The state republican party should have fought harder and made every effort to make sure the next elections would not be compromised. They failed. This is why we have a national sh-t show today. Democrats from all over have perfected their fraud because they go unchallenged.

Recall that the primary in Georgia was a disaster too, total incompetence. This SOS has no idea what he is doing.

The thing is, there is no incentive to clean up the system, they want it so that it’s easy to exploit.

Wow, I was walking down a back alley and came across a huge pallet of Biden ballots (approximately 100 Million ballots). I went through every single one (took a really long time!) and I didn't find even one single Trump ballot, although there was one write-in ballot for Bernie Sanders.

Should I ship that huge pallet of Biden-ballots directly to George Soros or would it be better to send it to the Democratic National Committee? I mean, we wouldn't want those 100 Million Biden-ballots to go to waste, would we? My thought is, the "peaceful" vote-counters in those various Democrat-controlled states that are still endlessly "counting all the votes" could probably use more "emergency Biden-ballots," ya know, "for the good of the country."

They got rid of Brenda Snipes. My only problem is they didn’t charge her with a criminal act. She got away scot free...

Is this what the paper ballots look like in Michigan, Georgia, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Arizona, and Wisconsin?

2020 U.S. Election Ballot for Democrat-controlled state

Ballot Option: Do you want your ballot counted on Election Day or during the phony Democrat-controlled, post-election, endless ballot-counting scam that will happen in various states throughout the country?

__ Please count my ballot on Election Day, as per U.S. election laws.
__ Please secretly use my ballot as an "emergency Biden-ballot" during the phony Democrat-controlled, post-election, endless ballot-counting scam that will happen in various states throughout the country.

Note: If you choose the latter option above, you may use literally any name you want on this ballot. The name can be real or imaginary, of a person dead or alive, heck, you can even use the name of a pet (and it doesn't even have to be your pet). It just doesn't matter.

Your Vote for U.S. President:

__ Kamala Harris (oh and biden too) Democrat
__ "George" (actual quote from Sleepy Joe) Republican
__ Karl Marx
__ Vladimir Lenin
__ Josef Stalin
__ Write-In Candidate (e.g., "Kamala Harris, oh and biden too")

We knew this crap would happen, they’ll be finding ballots into next year and I’ve been asking all month WHY the hell was this allowed?

I wish I knew why this was allowed to happen. Let me make a wild-aarse guess: I hope nobody bashes me for making this guess but I'm just throwing it out there as one (of many) possibilities:

Everyone's been criticizing SCOTUS Chief Justice John Roberts for voting with liberal Justices last month to allow Pennsylvania to conduct its planned election scam. But let's say Roberts instead voted with conservative Justices, preventing Pennsylvania from pulling its election scam. Maybe Roberts thought then you'll have Democrats across the country screaming that Trump and his Supreme Court is suppressing the vote (and thus automatically handing the election to Trump).

So instead, Roberts sides with liberal Justices, letting Pennsylvania pull its planned election scammery. Combine that with many other Democrat-controlled states' similar ongoing election scammery, and it makes it patently obvious to the world what desperate TDS-Democrats are doing. And maybe Roberts was also thinking Amy Coney Barrett will soon be confirmed so when Trump obviously brings the Democrats' election scammery to the SCOTUS, it can rule for Trump with an overwhelming 6-3 majority (which maybe the whole country will accept). Heck, after seeing the Democrats' Mass Election Scammery, maybe even one of the liberal Justices might (temporarily) switch sides, making it a 7-2 decision in favor of Trump. Nobody in their right mind could rationally fight against a 7-2 SCOTUS decision.

Just a thought that popped into my head. I admit I could be waaaaaaay off-base on this one.

She hasn’t lost any seat. That is a special election with 21 candidates including Loeffler, Collins and several other republicans. The runoff is between her and the dem later. All the republican votes consolidating behind her would give her almost 60% of the vote.

Perdue is headed toward a runoff.

Both of these need to be watched lie a hawk as I have zero faith in our sos.
