GA to conduct full recount by hand

Concart said:
Only way they will be accepted by who? The conspiracy theorists? Nope. As soon as this recount starts, they will start alleging all kinds of improper behavior by those counting by hand. It will make zero difference to anyone who thinks there was widespread voter fraud. They will never, ever accept the result. It is what it is.

By folks like me. I have enough knowledge of electronic vote counts to know that they can actually be hacked, I have enough knowledge of election judges and their work to know that it is unlikely that they did anything without the other side vocalizing loudly about it, I understand how it works and where issues can arise and when the count is very close like this one (and yes it is very close) the only real way to be sure that things didn't happen is to count by hand and see if it matches up.

I've recommended this several times on this site alone as people put their articles on the board citing some 8000 votes that flipped in error, etc.

Now if they recount and "find" a ton of ballots on Funk & Wagnell's porch and in Old Lady Fillsthebox's backseat... then we'll have some problems.

That's fair. You seem to be a reasonable fellow who would accept this. But many of the others just won't accept anything.

There are always some of those. They tend to think that "Russian Collusion" is still a real thing...
 
Democrats will strengthen our democracy by guaranteeing that every American’s vote is protected.

We will make it a priority to pass legislation that restores and strengthens the Voting Rights Act, and ensure the Department of Justice challenges state laws that make it harder for Americans to vote.

We will make voting easier and more accessible for all Americans by supporting automatic voter registration, same-day voter registration, early voting, and universal vote-from-home and vote-by-mail options.

Democrats believe Election Day should be a national holiday, in celebration of our democratic institutions and to make it easier for everyone to cast their ballot.

Democrats recognize that unions, community groups, and other civic organizations are critical to facilitating registration, encouraging voting, and protecting voter rights.

We will fully implement the Help America Vote Act and require that polling places and elections are accessible for people with disabilities, and work to ensure that returning citizens have their voting rights restored upon release from jail or prison without the additional hurdle of having to pay fines and fees in order to vote.

Democrats will also fight for emergency funding for states to help make vote-from-home and vote-by-mail universally available during the pandemic, while ensuring that all jurisdictions take steps to ensure continued meaningful, safe opportunities to vote in person.

We recognize that the United States Postal Service is more than ever a critical component to our democracy and must be supported to guarantee timely and efficient delivery and return of vote by mail ballots.

Election officials must be provided with sufficient time after election day to process, count, and audit all ballots.

We must give voters the confidence that their ballot was counted as cast by supporting mandatory, statistically meaningful post-election audits and full transparency of all election results and data.

To ensure every eligible ballot is counted, vote by mail voters must be informed of and provided a meaningful opportunity to fix any problem with their ballot.

A professional and well-trained election workforce is critical to the administration of elections, so we support ongoing federal and state funding for hiring qualified personnel at local elections offices.

All that's really needed is a recount in Fulton County.

Bush v Gore changed that... Either recount them all the same, or stop counting... I'm sure most of us remember that one. So, either request a recount across the state by hand or accept what you have.
 
Recounting the votes will never satisfy Donald Trump and his retarded supporters.

Because, even after a recount, and it don't turn up any new votes for Trump- THEY ARE STILL GOING TO CRY and be bad losers, and still call the election rigged! Their desires of chaos and corruption are insatiable!

This is just another stall tactic to somehow legitimize Trump's refusal to concede the election.

And when this don't work, Donald Trump will be calling for recounts in every state he lost- and we will still be counting votes in May!

This has to come to an end- AND TODAY IS ALREADY LATE ENOUGH!

STOP THE INSANITY OF DONALD TRUMP AND HIS IDIOTS AND CYNICAL SPOILED SPORTS!

It would be kind of funny if Biden actually picked up votes w/ the recount...

LOL Yes, it would.

In the end, results count. If Georgia wants to do this, their choice. Their taxpayer dollars. It's not the first time Trump has wasted taxpayer money.

Reality is already waving its dick in Trump's face, but it will be a huge dose of reality on December 14th.


Trump's efforts to overturn an election will go down in history as one of the worst attempts to overthrown the American government in over a century.
