Georgia ballot inspection case dismissed after no fraud found (huh?!)
Atlanta Journal-Constitution ^ | October 13, 2021 | Mark Neisse

Posted on 10/13/2021 8:30:14 AM PDT by BurgessKoch

A judge dismissed a lawsuit Wednesday by election skeptics who sought to inspect absentee ballots from last year’s presidential election, a decision that came a day after Georgia election investigators told the court they were unable to find any counterfeit ballots. Superior Court Judge Brian Amero ruled that the plaintiffs lacked standing to sue, bringing the case to a close and keeping Fulton County’s 147,000 original absentee ballots under seal. The judge’s order is the latest in a series of decisions against supporters of Republican President Donald Trump who have asked the courts to help them pursue suspicions of fraud or reverse the results of the election.

I just invented a new category of judge:

The "Joodge", which is a combination of judge and stooge.

Joodge Brian Amero did his part by stringing Garland Favorito and VoterGA along till he could bring the hammer down for the Uniparty.

I wonder if Catherine Engelbrecht and True the Vote are getting itchy trigger fingers...

The example she gave in her article was an image of a ballot harvester's route in Fulton County.

Maybe, but I’m not talking about their re-election.

Duncan isn’t running.

Kemp will run out of arrogance and because the frat boys on St Simons, Lake Oconnee, Lake Lanier, the Ansley Golf Club and Piedmont Driving Club will force him. I don’t see him standing a chance.

I doubt Raffensberger is going to run as well and take the chance of getting humiliated.

Republicans got out lawyered again. Wasn’t the exclusion on observing the counting a violation of voter rights?

SCOTUS ruled that NO ONE in America had standing when it came to Berg vs. Obama. “Standing” is a court’s way of abrogating responsibility.

As a result of these series of “no standing” rulings, America is no longer a republic. We are officially an oligarchy with only vestigial and dying elements of our republic getting wiped away.

They investigated themselves and found themselves innocent.

And if you don't believe them, just ask them - they'll tell you.

Disturbingly, the “standing” issue only works one way. Notice that Democrat “voting rights” groups can invoke a danger to voting rights caused by election integrity legislation without ONE SINGLE instance of an eligible voter being denied the ability to vote because of said legislation. It’s all a theoretical exercise, and yet the Democrats get the floor in court and quite often get a judgement in their favor for no identifiable victims.

No standing again.

Look how many election fraud cases were dismissed without ever hearing the evidence:

Excerpt from judge's ruling -

Petitioners lack standing to pursue their state equal protection and state due process claims.

Georgia courts have frequently tuned to U.S. Supreme Court case law concerning Article Il standing to resolve issuesof standing for claims brought in Georgia's courts. Arlanta Taxicab Co. Owners Ass'n, Inc. v. City of Atlanta, 281 Ga. 342, n.1 (Ga. 2006); see also Sons of Confederate Veterans v. Newton County Board of Commissions, 2021 WL 3087576, at *S (Ga. Ct. App. July 22. 2021).

Under both federal and Georgia law, the three requirements plaintiffs ‘must meet to have standing are “
(1) an injury in fact;
(2) a causal connection between the injury and the causal conduct; and
(3) the likelihood that the injury will be redressed with a favorable decision.” Sons of Confederate Veterans, 2021 WL. 3087576, at *S.

A plaintiff suffers an injury in fact when the injury is both “concrete and particularized” and “actual or imminent, not conjectural or hypothetical.” Lujan v. Defenders of Wildlife, 504 U.S. 555, 560 (1992) (internal quotations omitted).

Petitioners allege their votes have been diluted due to the “substantial likelihood” that fraudulent ballots were introduced during ballot processing for the General Election. They reason that Respondents” failure to properly implement state election laws and their negligent oversight of Happy Facesstaffand other agents who assisted in counting ballots at al stages of ballot processing resulted in the introduction and counting of counterfeit ballots. They also allege that the issue will persist in future elections if not corrected.** However, regardless of the veracity of these allegations, the Court finds Petitioners have still f[a]iled to allege a particularized injury.

A. Petitioners have failed to allege a particularized injury.
An injury is particularized when it “affects the plaintiff in a personal and individual way.” Wood v. Raffensperger, 981 F.3d 1307, 1314 (11th Cir. 2020) (internal citations and styling omitted).
Petitioners” allegations are, in sum, that their state equal protection and due process rights were violated because their votes, and the votes of other Georgia voters, were diluted as a result of the inclusion of fraudulent ballots that were counted because Respondents negligently oversaw the ballot processing for the General Election.
“The 11th Cireuit in food found substantially similar allegations of voter dilution insufficient to confer standing. Wood, the appellant, alleged that “irregularities in the hand recount violated his rights under the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.” Id. at 1312. He asserted he had basis for standing because “the inclusion of unlawfully processed absentee ballots diluted the weight of his vote.” d. at 1314. [excerpt]

Too much time has elapsed. It allowed the left to circle the wagons.

Judge Brian Amero obviously got a phone call from Chief Justice John Roberts telling him to shut down any court proceedings PRONTO.
