It’s illegal in GA to count ballots without poll watchers in attendance.
From the Fact Check article:
“Section § 21-2-408 of the Code Of Georgia, which addresses poll watchers, explains that political bodies and parties are “entitled” to have official poll watchers. The secretary of state’s chief counsel told Lead Stories it was not a requirement that observers be present for counting to continue — only that it is their right to be there is they choose.”
Do you have a source for that? Not that I don’t believe you but the authors of this “fact check” says the exact opposite. It would be great to catch him in a blatant lie.
