Georgia's proposed election integrity rule is kindergarten math and Democrats are all set to hate it

Election math should be simple: 1 Voter = 1 Ballot = 1 Valid Vote. Those 3 numbers should always match. That’s the basic goal of a commonsense election rule up for final approval by the State Board of Elections in Georgia on Aug. 19.

The rule aligns exactly with Georgia’s election statutes on tabulating election results and ensures that election officials reconcile the number of ballots cast to the number of voters who are shown as having cast a ballot.

If 200 voters cast ballots in a precinct, but election officials tally 220 ballots, election officials must investigate and find out why the count of voters to ballots cast is off.

This is how election officials catch errors, so that we don’t have a repeat of more than 3,000 duplicate ballots that were scanned, counted, and certified in Fulton County during the 2020 election recount in Georgia.

What’s not to love? Apparently, the left’s argument is that the “certification” of the election results does not mean that the results are accurate.

Huh?

Actually, it does. The rule is built on basic kindergarten math. Count the ballots, categorize them by ballot type, and confirm that the numbers align with the number of people who voted.

The updated rule considered for final approval says this: “Each precinct is required to compile a list of voters who voted in the election by category, such as voters who voted in person on Election Day, Advance (Early) Voting, Absentee, and Provisionally.”

It continues: “The list shall be examined for duplicates. The list shall then be sorted by precinct. The total number of unique voter IDs from each precinct shall be counted. The total number of unique voters who voted by each vote method shall be reported for each precinct.”

Partisans always look for weaknesses to exploit in the election system. Maybe that’s why Marc Elias and the ACLU are angry about requiring board members to actually do their jobs to ensure accurate elections. That they won’t be able to fix the election in their favor.

After all, they know what the rest of us know: that so goes Georgia, so may go the rest of the 2024 presidential election. And they’re willing to do whatever it takes, including lying, to win.

It’s not about the votes cast but the votes counted. Joe Biden couldn’t keep the election within the margin of theft, so he was jettisoned. Now they’re gaslighting the public about the “energy” Kamala brings to the Democrat side and how the election is now tight. It is back within the margin of theft and the few states where the national election hinge on have not done enough to ensure election integrity. Georgia is trying, but what about Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Nevada and Arizona?

Joe Biden couldn’t keep the election within the margin of theft, so he was jettisoned.

How big is the 'margin of theft?' Maduro made it 40% of the votes cast. That's nothing for the Dhimms. My personal estimate is that Biden got at least 40% more fraudulent ballots than actual valid votes.

Over the last four years it has become likely that, while electronic fraud and rerun ballots happened, the overwhelming method of ballot fraud was what is called, "ballot harvesting." The Dhimms make sure everyone in a swing district gets a ballot - everyone, living or dead, sane or senile. Then they fill out all the ballots with their desired result, fake (forge - a felony) the signature, and turn them in.

This has two advantages: First, the number of voters and number of ballots cast can be the same so the method described in the article won't fix this. But when only 60% (or thereabout) of the legal voters bother to vote, then all those who didn't vote get a ballot filled out in their name. Thats one of the main reasons it takes a few days to count the ballots. They have to see who actually voted to see who is left to forge a ballot for. And second, once the actual ballot is separated from the envelope, there is no way to tell how a particular "voter" voted. That's a good thing overall, but it means that if there are 100,000 fraudulent ballots (discovered after the fact in an audit of envelope signatures and a survey of those whose names were on the envelope - many of whom might be dead) in a race with a margin of victory of 1000 votes, there is no way to tell how many of the 100,000 fraudulent ballots went for the so-called 'winner' of the election. So the only choices are to set aside the entire election, or 'try harder next time.' No judge is going to set aside a Presidential election.

So, until and unless there is a way to prevent 'ballot harvesting', the Dhimms will just manufacture enough ballots to win. If Biden was outside the 'margin of theft' in public perception, then they just need to work on the public perception, not change their method of cheating. Kamala is a way to change the perception.

Seems pretty simple and should be easy to do.

When I vote in GA, I walk in the door and a worker scans my driver’s license barcode. A sheet of paper pops out of a printer. It has my picture along with other info from the driver’s license database, plus voter info from the voter registration database. I sign the printout and I’m given a fob that unlocks a voter station. The worker puts the printout in a bin.

I go into the next room, use the fob and vote on a touch screen and if I say everything is ok, a paper ballot pops out. I take the ballot and head over toward the exit. I feed the ballot into the tabulator. The election workers never want to touch the ballot or the tabulator, but it’s easy to feed the ballot into the machine. I get my ‘I voted’ sticker and paste on my shirt, it’s usually in a peach design (it’s GA afterall) and head out the door.

I will say when the wife and I voted in 2022, we had to stand in line outside in brutal 50 degree weather for about 10 minutes. Hopefully we won’t have to face such inhospitable conditions this time around.

But yeah, it should be easy to reconcile voters and votes, there is a pretty clear paper trail.

Almost as bad as the trudge to school through the sweltering ice-storm, uphill both ways.

But hey...I found a pic of that Georgian ultimately responsible for the vote tallies:

The

"One ballot, two votes for Democrats...Ah Ah Ah!"

How can they fill out ballots that have been sent out . . .

Basically, they intercept the ballots. One favorite tactic is in nursing homes. They intercept the ballots of residents who are not able to complain effectively. They fill them out, then either get them resident to scrawl something illegible or just do that, too, then gather them up and send them in.

Ballots are mailed out to the listed address of all registered voters, and for those who are dead or not paying attention, the ballots are taken from the mailboxes and filled out, then the signatures are forged. This is one of the reasons that current voter lists are critical - and being resisted at every turn by the Dhimms.

The supposed check on both of those forms of 'ballot harvesting' is the signature on the ballot envelope, which is to be matched against the registered voters signature. But the Dhimms and Dhimm-friendly (even if they have an R by their name) Secretaries of State in several states have either said that they requirements for signature matching are ridiculously loose or a match is not even required at all.

When an individual dumps dozens to hundreds of ballots in a ballot return box (see D'nesh D'sousa's "2000 Mules") then the chances that they have generously gone around to alert, careful voters who just happen to have trouble getting to the drop box is negligible. It is, however, not 'proof' to a level that would lead a judge to set aside an election.
