GA SoS Raffensperger Files Legal Brief To Prevent Real Audit Of Ballots From 2020 Election (Maricopa all over again)

Old Proverb – Those With Nothing To Hide Don’t Try To Hide Things

GA Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger seems like he has a secret. The man in charge of ensuring fair elections in the Peach State really doesn’t want anyone looking at the actual ballots from the Nov 3rd U.S. general election.

GA Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger seems like he has a secret. The man in charge of ensuring fair elections in the Peach State really doesn’t want anyone looking at the actual ballots from the Nov 3rd U.S. general election.

There is an old proverb — those with nothing to hide don’t try to hide things.

Fair election activists from VoterGA.org have worked hard and succeeded in gaining access to ballots from Fulton County, GA for a forensic audit. A judge will rule on the procedures later this month.

This is scaring the pants off those who enabled the massive election fraud in November’s general election and the GA Senate run-off in January.

We have seen the same obstruction of justice in Maricopa County, AZ and other swing-states which were hit by fraud.

The GA Secretary of State’s office filed an amicus brief yesterday in support of corrupt Fulton County election officials.

(Link to brief found in article)

Here are some amazing highlights from the legal filing:

Raffensperger suggests he is simply ‘protecting the public’s interest’ in allowing on the ballot images to be used, and not the actual paper records.

The Secretary respectfully requests that the Court permit Petitioners to inspect ballot images only, and deny Petitioners’ request to inspect and scan ballots.

Petitioners have submitted to the Court a proposed order granting their Motion to Unseal, which would grant Petitioners sweeping and unprecedented access to all ballots. (the horror)

Raffensperger also told an ‘alternative fact’ in his brief, claiming VoterGA wants to move the ballots from their secure location for the audit. CDMedia spoke to VoterGA and this is simply not true.

First, it is important to clarify the difference between “ballots” and “ballot images.” “Ballots” include (1) paper ballots produced by ballot marking devices (“BMDs”) used in in-person advanced voting and election-day voting; 1 (2) absentee-by-mail paper ballots; and (3) UOCAVA paper ballots. Ballots are then scanned through optical voting scanners selected and furnished by the State of Georgia pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 21-2-300. Once scanned, an electronic ballot image is created and stored on a memory card (“ballot images”).

So in short, Raffensperger wants VoterGA to only have access to the ‘images’ that were created by equipment furnished by the GA Secretary of State’s office and not the actual ballots that show the intended anonymous vote of GA citizens.

The arrogance is quite shocking; although, after Nov 3rd, we shouldn’t be shocked at anything.

Raffensperger declares that only he is allowed to see what actually happened.

The Elections Code is furthermore clear that it is only authorized elections officials who are legally permitted to verify and tabulate ballots in an election.

And, he doesn’t want any outside technology that can detect counterfeit ballots.

Moreover, the scanning and tabulation of ballots is only permitted under Georgia law to be conducted on the equipment selected and furnished by the State of Georgia.

There is simply no legal basis for unauthorized third parties such as Petitioners to electronically scan ballots using their own equipment in order to conduct their own independent tabulation of ballots.

Allowing Petitioners to conduct their own scan on uncertified and unknown equipment is contrary to law and would set a new and dangerous precedent going forward.

Perhaps Raffensperger should add to his brief that only Chinese equipment is allowed to scan American ballots.

Finally, Raffensperger declares its simply too late for anyone to do anything about the massive election fraud which occurred on Nov 3rd.

To the extent that Petitioners are using this open records act enforcement action as a pretext for challenging the legality of ballots cast in the general election, it is too late for them to assert such a challenge now, and any request for relief would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations.

After reading the amicus brief in full filed by the GA Secretary of State’s office, we believe any intellectually honest person would now want to scan the real ballots, and not just the ‘ballot images’ created by machines.

This is the fake Republican that said there was nothing unusual about the activity captured on security cameras showing ballots brought out from underneath tables and crammed into machines AFTER Republican poll watchers were sent home.

Note for about 10 years, Soros groups have what is called the "Secretary of States Project" along with other targeted offices.

I'm pretty sure Raffenspuker is connected.

Next note that Raffensperger doesn't want Jovan Hutton Pulitzer's methods and technology involved as he says only Dominion scanners and others related should be used.

The new——(more expansive and inclusive)——voting legislation also strips Georgia’s Secy of State from chairing the election board.

Opposition to the law is very telling. We’ve yet to hear these corporate nay-sayers lift their mighty voices WRT
Secy of State’s Raffenserger and his hand-picked Deputy’s monumental scam——making up a story, then lying about
official state activities, to perpetrate voter fraud, no doubt colluding w/ these self-same Democrap whiners.

The Raffensperger/Fuchs lie is the very essence of why Georgia WAS COMPELLED to revamp voting laws.
Hopefully the new laws will protect Georgia voters by making voting impervious to power-hungry official like Raffensperger.

At a Nov 28, 2020 panel in Shanghai, Prof Di Dongsheng, mused over the narcissism endemic to Western elites
(such as GA Secy of State Raffensberger who learned Mandarin, so desperate was he to corral Chinese donors)
and the ease to which American officials were brought under the spell of the Communist People’s Republic.

CCP operatives (w/ hidden agendas) reported on their efforts to conscript “prominent Americans and institutions”
who were even willing to work against the interests of their own country.....like GA Secy of State Raffenspeger.

The Chinese professor related his own triumphs as a CCP operative in recruiting new and useful American “friends.”
(including GA Secy of State Raffensperger, the Biden Crime Family, and Cong Swallwell, to name a few),

The professor told of the ease in which America’s prominent pols fell into China’s plot to leverage the pols’ insatiable appetite for power, influence, and money.

Ga Secy of State Raffensperger fell for it hook, line and sinker....he was so desperate to remain in power,
he learned Mandarin to suck-up to Chinese donors looking to co-opt state officials for the glory of China.

CRITICS OF THE GA LAW SHOULD CHEW ON THIS-——MASSIVE EVIDENCE OF 2020 VOTER FRAUD COLLUSION

Election Fraud Hotspots – 10% of the Data are 70% of the Fraud
American Thinker.com ^ | April 2, 2021 | Jay Valentine / FR Posted by Kaslin

(EDITED EXCERPT)....examining 2020 election fraud from publicly available records, the MO was 100% data analysis;
(a) looking at the actual votes, (b) the addresses, (c) the ballot info officially reported to Secys’ of State

The very same public data Google uses to profile someone for new running shoes.

Chris Wray and his pals at the FBI may not want to open this can of worms, but we did – with database analysis.


CASE IN POINT If a tractor trailer truck with 100,000 Biden ballots drove from NY to, say, PA, how can we find out?
<><>Every ballot has a person’s name and address.
<><> The ballot is cast, illegally;
<><> the ballot is counted.
<><> The local government is involved;
<><> U.S. Postal Service officials are involved.
<><> the official record of the ballot cannot be hidden.

That makes it highly collusive, sovereign, industrial-strength election fraud.


HOW THEY DID IT to fake 100,000 ballots, you need a bunch people sitting around tables with pizza and Cokes and
newly-sharpened #2 pencils to effectuate the voter fraud infrastructure.
<><> Every fraudulent ballot needs to tie to an address.
<><> Each ballot needs to tie to a name.

Well considering that most of the judges are corrupt then Raffensperger will certainly have his way.

The Washington Post’s Fake Trump Quote Scandal Is a Lot Worse Than You Think
The Raffenserger Lie was Propagated by the Rest of the Mainstream Media
PJ Media ^ | 03/16/2021 | Matt Margolis
FR Posted on 3/16/2021, 10:11:41 AM by SeekAndFind

The media conspiracy against Trump became a lot more serious on Monday when the Washington Post retracted its January story claiming that President Donald Trump had pressured Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find the fraud” in the 2020 election and said that he’d be a “national hero” if he did.

A recording of the call definitively proved that the quotes cited by the Washington Post, and then parroted by other outlets, were never actually said by the president at all.
But, as Becket Adams explains at the Washington Examiner, “the Washington Post’s dud of a ‘bombshell’ isn’t even the most scandalous thing about this episode in media malfeasance.”

The most scandalous thing, Adams, argues, is that several different newsrooms “claimed they independently ‘confirmed’ the original ‘scoop’ with anonymous sources of their own.”
NBC News reported it “confirmed The Post’s characterization of the Dec. 23 call through a source familiar with the conversation.”

USA Today claimed a “Georgia official speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal matters confirmed the details of the call.”

ABC News reported: “President Donald Trump phoned a chief investigator in Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger’s office asking the official to ‘find the fraud’ and telling this person they would be a ‘national hero’ for it, an individual familiar with the matter confirmed to ABC News.”
PBS NewsHour and CNN likewise appeared to claim they independently “confirmed” the story through their own anonymous sources.

The Washington Post claimed its quotes were confirmed by an anonymous source, and at least five major news outlets claimed to independently confirm that Trump said things he never said.

amazing. seldom will a court of law allow a copy of a document to be presented as evidence if the original is available...unless looking for discrepancies in the original document itself.

I would now want the originals to see if the images are matched to the originals, both in numbers and accuracy.

The bogus investigation launched by Georgia’s Secy of State Raffensberger alleging Trump demanded Raff/sperger
interfere and change the result of Georgia’s Presidential election........ was based on one big fat LIE concocted by
his Deputy appointee.

=================================

Georgia Deputy Secy of State Jordan Fuchs was the source of fake Trump quotes.
Fuchs was appointed by Secy of State Brad Raffensperger.

We oughta waterboard the lying bish.....find out who she colluded with.

And now would be a perfect time for the Republicans in the state legislature and every county level GOP to also file an amicus brief in favor of the audit.

What a wonderful world it would be if the entire GOP apparatus in the state, at every level, to publicly voice their support of the audit. Enough to shame him into resignation.

Let’s hope the Judge who so far has been 100% straight sees through this attempted dodge for what it is, an attempt to hide election fraud. This examination could and very likely will end up putting Raffensperger and a host of others IN JAIL FOR A LONG TIME!

Funny how Great Minds think alike.

And the corollary question is...what were they promised for doing it?
