ATLANTA — A hand tally of the presidential race in Georgia is complete, and the results affirm Democrat Joe Biden’s lead over Republican President Donald Trump.
Biden went into the recount with a margin of 13,558 votes, according to votes tallied by NBC. Previously uncounted ballots discovered during the hand count reduced that margin to 12,284 votes, the Georgia Secretary of State's office reported.
”The recount process simply reaffirmed what we already knew: Georgia voters selected Joe Biden to be their next president, “Jaclyn Rothenberg, Georgia communications director for the Biden campaign said. “We are grateful to the election officials, volunteers and workers for working overtime and under unprecedented circumstances to complete this recount, as the utmost form of public service.”
The hand recount of nearly 5 million votes stemmed from an audit required by a new state law and wasn’t in response to any suspected problems with the state’s results or an official recount request. The state has until Friday to certify the results that have been certified and submitted by the counties.
Once the state certifies the election results, the losing campaign has two business days to request a recount if the margin remains within 0.5%. That recount would be done using scanners that read and tally the votes and would be paid for by the counties, Gabriel Sterling, who oversees Georgia's voting systems, said.
It was up to Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to select the race to be audited, and he said the presidential race made the most sense because of its significance and the tight margin separating the candidates. Because of that small margin, Raffensperger said a full hand recount was necessary.
Raffensperger, in a statement Thursday, said the results reaffirm the integrity of the state's election process.

A well reasoned and sober assessment that makes for pessimism on our side. Hope you are not onto something.
Maybe there is an element we are missing.
So much of what Ape Pee, NBC News and Yahoo News alleges is baseless and untrue.
Cleaning house!
“Headlines are already falsely reporting that Joe Biden is declared the winner in Georgia. Sorry, media, that’s not how it works. The state of Georgia has not certified its results, and it should not. This so-called hand count went exactly as we expected because Georgia simply recounted all of the illegal ballots that had been included in the total. We continued to demand that Georgia conduct and honest recount, which includes signature matching. We intend to pursue all legal options to ensure that only legal ballots are counted.” - Jenna Ellis, Trump Campaign Senior Legal Advisor
Would you quit posting negative articles that are repetitive? Or is that your goal here?
It just reaffirms that they counted all those fraudulent cotes correctly.

RE: Would you quit posting negative articles that are repetitive? Or is that your goal here?
Would you please look at ALL of the articles I posted today and yesterday and the day before, before you conclude that I am posting negative articles only?
Search for my screen name and you’ll see.
See post #25 for instance. is it negative?
No. Please quit posting negative articles, period. There are more than enough MSM sources we can go to for negative articles. We come here to escape that, and read POSITIVE articles.
So the yahoos at yahoo news is reporting what was produced by the associated propaganda news.
The Republican Gov and the Republican SOS are assisting in the Big Steal.
Ha ha
It would seem to imply that there was no software malfeasance in the count.
I am sure there was tremendous voter fraud with the mail in ballots but since the envelopes are separated from the ballot there is no way to audit the validity of the ballots.
RE: No. Please quit posting negative articles, period.
Sorry, no dice. I post BOTH negative and positive articles. There’s no FR rule against doing the former.
I do the former to elicit refutations. Feel free to refute them here.
Realize that a full audit order is on the way... certification or not.
Like letting an embezzler check the books.
Recounts mean nothing if you are also recounting fraudulent ballots. It must be an audit (which throws out the fraudulent ballots) and then adjusts to the true numbers.
Example 100 votes for Trump and 120 for Biden of which 40 of Biden’s are fraudulent votes. A recount simply makes sure all the votes were counted and the math is correct. Thus the recount of above would show Trump 100 and Biden 120.
An audit would catch the illegal votes for Biden and thus it would be 100 for Trump and 80 for Biden.
Democrats love recounts as it does not catch the fraud. Democrats abhor audits as this catches the fraud. Oddly a recount gives opportunity to inject more vote fraud as in Bush verses Gore in Florida. Florida used punch cards for voting. The election was close and the punch cards were run again in accordance with Florida law. Gore gained thousands of Votes on the rerun. This is statistically impossible and hanging chads be damned. It was voter fraud. The errors in favor or one candidate or the reverse would have been statistically equalled out. It was not. This was vote fraud.
Recounting three piles of $hit will still equal three piles of $hit.
