The four reporters that were there and published transcripts of the speech that included “under God” don’t count?

Didn't say that. I did say that there are mountains of evidence that he did say it, specifically referring to what Garry Wills' book says on the matter.
My point was that in the absence of audio and video of the event (I'm looking for a fusion-powered DeLorean - has anyone seen a fusion-powered DeLorean?), it can and probably will be argued that there's no real official and verifiable record of the actual speech. From my perspective tho the Bliss Copy - signed and dated by Lincoln - is good enough.
