BREAKING: Georgia SoS Backtracks on Announcement the State Has Certified Election

It appears someone in the Georgia secretary of state’s office getting a bit over their skis, after Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger announced today that Georgia had certified former Vice President Joe Biden as the state’s presidential winner, which our own Streiff reported earlier on Friday.

Despite an earlier announcement, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger (R) said the office is still completing its certification. The office issued a correction, reversing an earlier announcement that had declared the certification was complete. Raffensperger said he expects certification to be completed later Friday.

A revised update from WaPo included this depiction of the “error”:

His office then stumbled on the final step, prematurely announcing that the certification was complete while only unofficial results remained on the public website. Forty minutes after the big news, the secretary of state’s office corrected its news release and said the results would be released later.

Forty minutes after the big news, the secretary of state’s office corrected its news release and said the results would be released later.

There was also this more reality-based take from the Washington Examiner:

The snafu was just the latest embarrassing turn in what has been a chaotic electoral process in the traditional Republican state.

Earlier at the state Capitol, Raffensperger had declared: “Working as an engineer throughout my life, I live by the motto that numbers don’t lie.”

“As secretary of state, I believe that the numbers that we have presented today are correct. The numbers reflect the verdict of the people, not a decision by the secretary of state’s office or of courts or of either campaign,” he said.

As this is breaking news, RedState will bring share additional updates as they become available.

Stalling...if they certify, only then, can it be contested.

If Brad Raffensperger certifies this election then he should be tried and convicted for conspiracy to commit election fraud - thousands and thousands of counts. Throw is ass in prison for consecutive terms.

Maybe this crook has decided to hold the socialists up for more than the agreed upon amount, or maybe there was some hang up transferring the cash to his offshore account?

Is there any truth to the allegation that the Georgia SOS took $160 million bribe from Dominion?

“Working as an engineer throughout my life, I live by the motto that numbers don’t lie.”

He’s an obvious lying sack. The numbers he’d be referring to as an engineer aren’t in any way, manner shape or form fungible...ballots are if you want them to be. Creep.

Engineers routinely pad numbers by a certain percentage before stamping their name to a design. Just saying

So Al-baby was given 37 days for a recount. What is the deal here? Have the other states all certified? I just think that the MSM keeps throwing stuff out there to try and confuse or more over discourage us Trump supporters. I won’t give up until I see for myself, President Trump conceding the election.

Did you see the video posted by Wood? A woman filmed a shredding company truck where the ballots are: https://twitter.com/LLinWood/status/1329852459553058819?s=20

He has posted several videos of the truck and the ballots. She called the police who came but did nothing.

I just signed it. I live in Indiana, but WTH Georgia is letting people “move” there and register for a day, why can’t I sign a petition.
