Georgia Secretary of State: Recount Won’t Pick Up Many Errors

12 November 2020
Georgia’s upcoming hand recount of nearly 5 million votes cast in the presidential race will find that there were not many errors, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said Thursday.

“I believe it will be a relatively small amount,” Raffensperger, a Republican, told Fox News’ “Fox and Friends.” “I think that you will find that the machine count that we did will be fairly accurate.”

The state has a deadline of Nov. 20 to finish the recount, and Raffensperger said he’s certain the counties will meet that goal.

We vote by secret ballot so that our government is not capable of persecuting people for their votes. The final time to determine that a qualified voter is associated with a ballot is immediately before the ballot is counted.

Recounts of ballots which have been separated from their voter identies are generally worthless.

I found Rudy to be pretty incoherent on today’s broadcast.
The IT guy from voterga.org made a lot more sense describing how votes could be flipped electronically.

I ashamed to say actually voted for the RINO squish (anything was better than the gap-toothed ghettopotomus!) but it will not happen again-provided he even bothers to run...

Robert Barnes
@Barnes_Law
Did
@GaSecofState
mislead the world when he said he was ordering an audit and a re-canvass? A re-canvass requires review of absentee ballot applications & absentee ballot signatures, but apparently counties in Georgia are intending on hiding that from observers?

“Civil War II is coming.”
This may sound crude but if I can kill Viet Cong without blinking an eye then I will have no problem killing BLM and Antifa when needed, and with 5 Expert Marksmanship Ribbons to back that up. These people will not just lay down and roll over. Period.

There was supposed to be a recanvass and audit according to the SOS yesterday. Today he said that those steps would be done by county without observers.

Stinks to high heaven

@LLinWood just tweeted:

“Same legal principle applies to GA election.

Every lie will be revealed.

“Americans” who participated in fraudulent scheme to overthrow our duly elected President are TRAITORS.

China orchestrated it.

American is a nation under a just God.

Be prepared to #FightBack.“

Guess we should have read the fine print:

@GaSecofState “According to law Georgia passed in 2019-- Georgia is required have a state-wide hand Risk Limiting Audit (RLA), trigging a recount.

We are committed to counting every legal ballot. Georgia voters deserves accurate, secure results. We stand by our numbers.“

October surprises also don’t work if the media deliberately blocks the news.

As we’ve seen they can block the news for a month. Could they have done it for 2, 3, or 4 months? I’m not so sure.

Considering the source of that tweet (Lin Wood), such a statement is a "big effing deal."

Lin Wood is a lot like Rudy in that he is a pit bull.

I have seen a video of the Dominion whistleblower (contract worker in Michigan IIRC) of whom Rudy speaks. She is credible...and the details she reveals are BIG.

She was due to appear on Hannity last night but Fox cancelled.

Well, that took me down another rabbit hole...

NPR reporting NPR’s Supreme Court correspondent Nina Totenberg’s sister, Amy Totenberg United States District Judge, regarding Georgia voting court decisions which will likely end up before the Supreme Court.

Judge Says Georgia Must Scrap Outdated Electronic Voting Machines After 2019

August 15, 2019

A federal judge has denied a request to move all of this fall’s municipal elections in Georgia away from “unsecure, unreliable and grossly outdated technology” and toward hand-marked paper ballots that are optically scanned and counted.

The order from U.S. District Court Judge Amy Totenberg Thursday also requires the state to cease using its direct-recording electronic voting machines after 2019 and expresses doubts about the state’s ability to roll out its new ballot-marking device system in time for the March 24, 2020, presidential primary election.

In the decision, Totenberg also directs the Georgia secretary of state’s office to develop a plan to “address errors and discrepancies in the voter registration database” and have paper copies of poll books at each voting precinct.

The state must also create a contingency plan for the 2020 elections in case the new system is not completely rolled out. That includes designating several pilot jurisdictions that will use hand-marked paper ballots with optical scanners in their elections this fall.

We really need to win both senate runoffs. Even if there are 51 “R” senators, if Romney decides to stab us he can tie the vote and then Kamala decides.

There is another huge lawsuit that L Lin Wood has been talking about. In March 2020 GA SOS Raffensperger settled with democrats on how absentee ballots would be processed in elections. In essence, he CHANGED ELECTION LAW without going through the GA legislature.

This is the same thing they just ruled on in PA.

By the way, Raffensperger’s wife has covid and he is now in quarantine. How convenient.
