While every county in Georgia takes part in the massive, manual statewide recount of the presidential election in Georgia, many counties are offering livestreams to allow the public to observe the process.
This article will include links to watch for a number of metro Atlanta counties.
My colleague Mark Niesse wrote about how the recount will work. and that may be helpful in understanding what you are watching. There is no audio, and what you can generally see from the livestream is a fixed camera view. Election workers sit at tables in teams of two. For each ballot, both members of the team check and verify the voter’s choice for president. And then the ballot is put into a pile for that candidate. The process repeats.

Garbage in = garbage out.
No checking of signatures. No checking to see if they’re properly registered or at the correct address.
it’s a show. The Rs there cashed in on Dominion ($300 mill contract) and want Trump to lose to cover their own corruption.
Watch the fake recount live! If you cannot see the details of the ballot then the video means nothing.
They are just checking if they counted all the fraudulent ballots right the first time.
Nobody is checking any signatures. The ballots could have come from anywhere.
Well film and record it.
We will ha e evidence they didnt do a proper valid recount, by their own cameras.
Of course, because it's a fake recount instead of an audit.
The cameras are so far away, you can’t see anything.
This isn’t transparency. What a joke!
They could zoom in on the tables. Do it like Las Vegas. I'm sure they know what each table is doing in Vegas.
They do this in Tucson. A lot of good it does. They don’t show you the ballot box stuffing. lol
Unless one can see the actual ballots and compare the signatures on mail-in ballots it is useless.
Prediction: Trump will concede on Friday, November 20 after Georgia certifies the election over Republican objections.
Lol. Not a chance.
This is all going to Supreme Court
No checking of the 95,000 single-entry ballots for Biden vs. 181 for Trump. Obvious fraud.
I’m sure they will make sure everyone sees what they want them to see.
Yep Trump is gone and there will be less GOP elected each election until extinct
You can’t see nothing your too far away!
Fraudulent ballots omce, fraudulent ballots counted twice, etc, etc...
I propose we set up tents next to these stupid socialist designated AFL-CIO union counting facilities, and show them we can count paper cards too!
Then proclaim our stacks of blank paper cards to be ballots, and announce we found some a bunch of uncounted Democrat ballots!
Our would be as legit as many of theirs, and probably more so, as ours would not be committing massive fraud, and illegally spoiling entire voting districts.
if this arrangement is still in place, how reliable would audits be?
21 Nov 2019: The Hill: DHS cyber agency invests in election auditing tool to secure 2020 elections
BY MAGGIE MILLER
The Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) cybersecurity agency announced Thursday it would partner with election officials and private sector groups to develop an election auditing tool that can be used to help ensure the accuracy of votes in 2020.
DHS’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is partnering with non-profit group ***VotingWorks on an open-source software tool known as Arlo, which is provided to state and local election officials for free.
According to CISA, Arlo conducts an audit of votes by selecting how many ballots and which ballots to audit and comparing the audited votes to the original count.
“Heading into 2020, we’re exploring all possible ways that we can support state and local election officials while also ensuring that Americans across the country can confidently cast their votes,” CISA Director Christopher Krebs said in a statement.
Krebs added that “At a time when we know foreign actors are attempting to interfere and cast doubt on our democratic processes, it’s incredibly important elections are secure, resilient, and transparent.”
Use of post-election audits have been widely recommended by experts as a major step to secure elections, particularly in the wake of attempted Russian interference in 2016.
The use of audits was a step recommended by the Senate Intelligence Committee to secure elections in volume one of its bipartisan report on Russian interference efforts in 2016...

VotingWorks is a left-of-center non-profit provider of voting machines and open-source election verification software. In November 2019, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced it would partner with VotingWorks to pilot the use of its vote verification software in six battleground states during the November 2020 election. In April 2020, responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, VotingWorks announced it would be providing technological assistance to states and local jurisdictions seeking to scale-up voting by mail opportunities...
VotingWorks was created within and incubated by the left-leaning Center for Democracy and Technology (CDT) in December 2018 and later and spun off as a separate non-profit. CDT’s major donors are large technology firms, such as Amazon, Google, Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft; and large left-of-center foundations, including George Soros’s Foundation to Promote Open Society, the Ford Foundation, and the MacArthur Foundation...

Signatures are gone after the outside envelope is separated from the ballot inside. No way in hell to check if ballot is legal.
So essentially they are counting a mix of legal & illegal ballots. Total farce.
